Ok.

Let me explain how bars work.

They are generally fairly small and crowded.

There are often a lot of people having conversations with a lot of other people.

You can often hear some, or most of these, depending on where you are sitting.

Overhearing other peoples private conversations, that they are having in a public space, often loudly…

… That is not eavesdropping.

That is existing, in a bar.

Framing this as eavesdropping is absurd.

Some of the people in this thread have very clearly never been to a bar. They only speak with strangers in text form.

What on earth do you have against paragraphs? I don’t want to read your comments just based on the formatting, let alone the actual content.

Responding to the content though: In this situation, this woman was being social at a bar with her friends. Women existing in public is not an open invitation to bother them and being unable to read social cues is probably a big part of Anon’s problems with women. Women utilize a great deal of non-verbal communication and not being able to read that or refusing to even try is a great way to plaster oneself in red flags.
