"Increasing numbers of people don't drink--which rules out bars." It is possible to not drink alcohol at a bar and still have fun, but I also never liked bars

"Increasing numbers of people don't drink--which rules out bars." It is possible to not drink alcohol at a bar and still have fun, but I also never liked bars to meet people. And "clubs", no he did not meant a "hobby thing", but a place where you can dance and enjoy music. Dancing is a very old way of hooking up. Back in time it was the village dance, where the young people got close. And this still works, either in formal settings like a dance studio - or free style on a dance floor. Dancing is body language and you can signal to other people, whether you are interested, or not. And then you get close, or apart.
