Yo, I'm debating whether to go to a Rock bar I used to go to. Ideally, I'd like to do some approaching. The only problem for me is that there will be a few people there who I used to work with who don't really like me anymore. (I was a bit unstable a year or two ago). Its quite a small bar and I will almost always be in view, I'm worried that-

  1. I'll Look like a loser being alone and approaching girls
  2. They will put me off/distract me from my game as it will be playing on my mind.

The issue about where I live is that everybody knows each other, They're all really close and I'm not.
