I started dating my girlfriend, E, about a month and a half ago. Before we started dating I partied and went to bars & clubs every week, as did she. Since we started dating, we've both slowed down on that scene, however we still go out once a week with some mutual friends.

When I'm at a bar or club, I don't like to be clingy with my girlfriend. I'll play pool with some buddies, meet up with old friends, talk, and dance a lot. My girlfriend, however, likes to be with me the entire time we're there. Last weekend we went to a bar with about 10 mutual friends, and I spent the first hour dancing (I invited her, she didn't want to so she stood around sipping her drink) and playing pool. I got a call from her, crying, saying she was walking home. I left, found her, took her back to the bar, and spent the rest of the night dancing with her. We had a great time after we resolved the issue.

Rambling aside, we're going out again tonight and I want to avoid this problem. I like to do my own thing, but I definitely want to have fun with her as well. How can I get a healthy mix so she doesn't feel neglected while we're out?
