Pretty sad actually since I really like electronic music... Looking forward to the Nature One festival next week. But then again, festivals are a whole different story as many people pointed out already.

Most guys I know aren't particularly fond of dancing. It may surprise you to learn that most club-going women have similar tastes. They're not oblivious to what going to a club means, hook-up wise. I don't think anyone really likes the sort of dancing that goes on when the participants don't really know how to dance ![]() | ||

And very often, maybe a litte less than 100% of the time I go, I'll meet an exceptionally beautiful young lady and we'll passionately kiss, exchange numbers, and usually end up together the next morning. Actually NO. NOOOOO. Ive only gone to the club a few times. Twice it was because I was dragged by a gf. And I drank excessively to get over my fear of everyone and everything inside those horrid hell holes. Haha you awesome ![]() | ||

I Have never been shy, nor did i hang around in a group of people that didn't really like to go out, and have fun. (nurture, like having 5 friends who look forward to just playing dota 2 at night and not really wanting to do anything else other than that, something of that nature) but i don't really like clubbing, im quite sociable and i do train for marathons (although i guess this really isn't that great? if you wanna get women/look great and confident, you definitely dont start running 10-15km's... you will mostly start benching etc.) I've been to clubs several times and honestly I did enjoy it, more so because of the company i was with rather than the amounts of people/sometimes smelly/random obnoxious drunks, and i do enjoy dancing. But if I were to plan something for a night out, i probably wouldnt choose clubbing... Come to think of it im not sure what id do, only things i do at night is dates/cinemas, after about 10pm im usually home, whatever day of the week it may be. So really, don't hate clubbing, dont like it, its definitely enjoyable and I do think people should atleast try to go clubbing with some friends and experience it, its a different nature there, such as some social rules being ignored, you cant really grind up next to a girl while your walking to work xD or simply talk to a girl while at uni (i guess you could, might be easier at a club? i dunno...) of course, its not only for meeting chicks, just go and dont enter with a "this is going to be fucking shit/boring mindset" and youll have a blast! | ||

I absolutely hated it. Too loud, too many people, too many flashy lights, it stank, and too many people touching you and being asses. | ||

The clubs in Rotterdam are alright. If I had to choose between going to a bar and a club I would probably pick the bar though, because talking to people in clubs just sucks and is really annoying. So a good night for me consist of either first going to a bar, or some kind of house party with friends, then going to a club afterwards. | ||

Man, I was so disappoint. Anyways, on the topic of night clubs. Ya I hate it. Went to a few with buddies couples years back. Every single time its always some cute girl Im trying to talk to, but music is too damn loud. I honestly have really bad hearing, so in the end I was just forced to act like I knew what they were talking about and just nod my head. It was really awkward and I hated every minute of it. | ||

I didn't know you could walk into a club and have a normal conversation with a girl when theres unintelligible music blasting ear drums at 10000 decibels | ||

I don't smoke so I hate that that's the only place to get "fresh" air and talk but it's better than in a dark room with loud music. | ||

I have to say the best part of going out for me is always the meetup with friends before actually going to the clubs. On the flipside the way home is also usually really fun, so skipping out on clubs would mean missing a lot of funny stories as well. The meetup is the fun part where you drink, socialize, listen to music you actually like, with people you actually like. Then you go to a club in town, and the rest of the night turns to shit. Happens 100% of the time. People always split up because they're meeting up with someone else or doesn't like club A or B. Once you've gotten throughout harassed by the guards so they'll allow you to pay half your wallet to enter, you're faced with incredible boredom as you try to figure out what the fuck you do now? First you pay the other half of your wallet for a shitty drink. Then you try to chat up a girl. Maybe you're lucky enough to find someone who wont ignore you at first sight because you're probably the 10th person to hit on her that night alone. Then you sit there and nod like the most uninteresting and boring person in the world because you can't actually fathom a word she's saying, seeing as the music is usually too loud to hear your own voice let alone anyone else. Once you both realize you can't actually communicate with each other, you give up and attempt something else. Maybe attempt dancing? If you're sufficiently drunk, you might be able to get around the terrible music and your own shyness. If you're not, you take two steps onto the dance floor before realizing "holy shit this is stupid", before walking away. By this time, one of your buddies have gotten into a fight. Or maybe he just slipped on the floor and onto broken glass. Because the floor will usually be covered with the shit (at one club I go to, they had to stop giving people glasses because they would just toss them on the floor on purpose when done drinking. Thats the kind of amazing people you'll meet out on town). So you have to call an ambulance for your friend, and realize the night is over. Now starts the journey home. If you're not a student like me, you might do the sensible thing and let the cabdrivers rip you off for a ride home. If you are kinda on the poor side, you either walk all the way, no matter how many hours it takes, or you starts calling everyone you know in hopes of getting someone to pick you up. Finally you manage to sufficiently piss of one of your relatives or friends enough to come get you in the middle of the night. Only for you to come home and realize you're way too intoxicated to be able to sleep. So you sit around for another hour or two playing some kind of mundane game because you're incapable of focusing, before finally getting around to bed so you can feel shitty when you wake up, or indeed the entire next day. tl;dr: You pay a fortune so you can waste an entire evening being bored, listening to shit music, not socializing with people, piss off everyone you know, and being sick the entire next day. Congrats! We're officially idiots. | ||

For me I've actually never had a night "turn to shit" upon getting to the club. I don't go to hole in the wall or ghetto 'clubs' though so maybe that could explain why i've failed to have anything remotely close to as a shitty of a night you described. I also go to clubs to see DJs I like (re: music I actually like) with people I like rather than go to clubs with music I hate filled with people I hate. Maybe that's part of the reason 100% of your nights out at a club have been completely shitty -- you go to places that feature too much of the shit you described! Fights can happen anywhere there is alcohol and testosterone, and drinks are gonna be broken on occasion, but not to such an insanely high level at decent places with good staff. If someone drops a glass, their ass is being thrown out for being too drunk, whether or not it was because they were too drunk. Same goes for fighting -- out! If you're at a place where there are too few staff or too few fucks given by the staff, then yeah, it's going to be sloppy, dirty, and violent. Try a better place. As far as not being able to walk up to randos and have meaningful conversations with them... Go in with a group of friends that all want to be there. Split a table. Then if you're still keen to go grind on some random girl, don't worry about the talking, just eye fuck get the attention and take it from there. If you hate dancing in general, which may be the case for you, then yeah, of course this sort of approach where you just dance with people and forget about the talking part probably won't work. | ||
