I realize this was addressed to the gentlemen, but as my casual freinds are all male, and my SO female, I think I'm qualified. A long term romantic partner comes before a casual friend.
For the bar question, I'd turn it around. If I were unattached and met a nice girl at a bar, and had to choose between her and giving my friend a ride home, I'd go with the friend. The prior commitment to someone I care about gets precedence over someone I just met.
