Today I went to a bar with my friends. I have been there before but it turns out they had a rock night on Fridays. I like rock but the music was too loud and the music selection from the dj was bad as well. I had a headache and it made things worst but it's raining a lot outside all day. My friend was driving and she had a good time so I was stuck there and I couldn't leave alone with the rain. At first it was good and I had fun but later I wanted to leave!
I stayed though an we left all together. Now I am at home and I am so happy that I am back. Has it happened to you, to be at a place that you don't like at all, but you had to stay until the end?

I think that has happened to most of us at one time or another--catching a ride with a friend and, then, getting stuck waiting (and suffering) until they are ready to leave whatever place it is.

Hello! I didn't have a car, we all got there with a friend. I said that I didn't like the music at some point and my friends said that it will probably turn around soon and play better later. But I didn't want to tell them to drive me home and then go back because it was far away. So I stayed there and waited until the end of our night.
We go out very often and it's expected that sometimes one of us won't be enthysiastic about the place that's why I didn't want to make it a big deal.

Yes, I am not going back to that place either! It's normal to have some places that we like and some places that we don't! Next time I will pick the location and I hope that my friends like it. We want to go to different places and try new ones so it's expected that some of them won't be likeable by everyone.

It has happened to me. I was also with my friends. Actually, it was sort of a batch get together and we decided to meet up in the bar. I wanted to be with my friends but being with the other people whom I have never been closed to made me feel uncomfortable, most especially if there is somebody who is trying to hit on you, or would sit beside you and talk about things that really doesn't seem to be interesting.

I feel like that sometimes as well. If you are in the mood to go out and have fun with the peple you know, it feels a bit uncomfortable to have strangers around. I like meeting new people, but there are times like the one you describe that I am not interested very much in talking with them.

A friend of ours recommended a restaurant, so my husband and I decided to have dinner there. When we arrived, the music was loud, the restaurant was not separated from the bar and the place just looked so tacky to us. We had already sat down before we realized that this restaurant just wasn't a place where we would really enjoyed. We thought it would be tacky on our part to walk out, so we did have dinner there. We enjoyed each others' company but we both agreed that we would not go back.
Sometimes it is better to be polite or stay good friends, then be demanding your own way. For the sake of your friend and your friendship, you probably handled the situation in the best way.
We were able to tell our friend that we did try out the restaurant at her recommendation and we told her we had a good time. We had a good time because we decided to make the best out of the situation.

Yes, that's true. If we have a good mood and a good company we can enjoy almost anything! Some places just have a different style than what we have in mind, like the bar-rastaurant that you went.
I also think it was better that I stayed around until the end, however I went back home and I just wanted to go to bed and sleep!
