    I've heard on here gay bars are the worst places to meet someone , so why can't people go to pride and strike up a converstion with someone new at a pride party ?

    From what I've seen and I mean no offense , gay bars are usually filled with straight girls , sometimes straight guys and gay guys . So I don't really go into the gay bars in hopes of meeting anyone anymore , at my first pride party I got hit on by a straight guy and no lesbians even though there were a few there, because they thought I was straight . I was later told by the lesbians there who were only 2 that it was a horrible place to meet other women and you usually bump into straight girls there so don't waste your time . Honestly it seemed much easier for gay men to meet other men and if you happen to meet another lesbian usually they just wanted to hook up . I don't take anything seriously anymore that happens in gay bars if I meet another woman I don't expect anything to happen from that . I don't even bother approaching women anymore , I just usually hang out with the gay guys I don't waste my time . I learned after my first time there .

    I have been to a few gay bars @ weekends always packed out If a guy took my fancy I would chat a bit and arrange to meet on a quieter night .Also go to nights like quiz nights when its not so crowded .

    I find at Pride that people tend to go in groups with their mates and so it can be quite hard to sort of get chatting to individuals. The Prides that I've gone to I have attended alone but I always seem to be very much in the minority!

    I'm sure that it's possible to meet people at Pride, you just might have to be brave/proactive about infiltrating other people's groups and conversations etc.
