This way you will find it much easier to pee if you gointo a privatecubicle without worrying about the design of the bathroom. You will find that even if it is the only cubicle in the restroom you will be able to go.
The pressure exerted on the bladder when it is full makes it easier for you to be able to relax the bladder to enable pee to flow.
By only peeing when you are bursting to go you may only have to pee once in the entire evening. Plus, if you are drinking alcohol this often makes you more relaxed anyway and thus helping you start to get a flow going.
Worrying about needing to pee is also a catch 22. The more you worry the harder it is to pee. So next time you have an evening out don't worry. Have a few drinks, enjoy yourself and go and pee when your bladder is full. If you fail the first time, it is noproblem, go away again and relax and have another drink and try again later.
