Dating as a teetotal

I'm a 21 year old guy and I'm at the stage of my life where I want a girlfriend. I don't drink, smoke, or use drugs as my own personal choice. I have been suggested to check out bars to meet people but I'm not sure if I should since I don't drink. It's not a deal breaker for me if the other person drinks in moderation but I myself refuse to drink alcohol. Should I still meet people in bars or is there another social setting that would be better for me?

Most women drink very moderately, but personally, I'd be wary of meeting a potential partner in a bar. Just mention being sober in your Tinder/Hinge profile.

You must not be from the U.S., or if you are, must be talking about women 20 or more years older than OP.
