Here's How You Can Make Friends at Bars

5. Put Effort into the Friendship

Striking a conversation and making a new friend at a bar is easy – it’s keeping them that’s the hard part! We often lose out on great friendships because we’re afraid of looking like a loser if we text them first, but how else are you going to strengthen and maintain your connection with them? The next time you meet someone cool at a bar, take a leap of faith and continue talking with them the following day. Or if you’re both on vacation in Las Vegas, then why not plan to see a few sights together? The possibilities are endless, as long as you grab at the opportunity.
