EPTI guess if you just go for the music because the DJ is cool, then maybe it's okay. Or if you just go with a few friends and have a few drinks and keep to yourselves, I guess that's alright, but you can do that anywhere.

However, I'm interested in meeting women and it can't be all that bad granted so many people enjoy it. So I ask those people that are in similar sheos and have tried it out, is clubbing one of those things that you learn to enjoy, or does it have to come naturally? | ||

Yeah, maybe I'm a bad person but the type of person who goes to a club, gets drunk, and grinds on some random girl is not the type of person I think highly of. I guess if you just go for the music because the DJ is cool, then maybe it's okay.

Enjoying clubbing doesn't disqualify a person from being intelligent/nice/interesting. | ||

Sometimes I feel the opposite is true. People that go and enjoy clubbing probably don't think I'm very interesting or fun to be around. | ||

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. Sounds like you hate your friends and get together with them to places you know you hate. I usually meet up with a couple friends, hang out/get drunk, head to the club, have a couple beers to keep the buzz going and have a good time listening to the dj(usually the reason for said club excursion) with friends. If you want to meet a chick just go on the dance floor and dance with one, you're obviously not going to a club to have an insightful conversation there so just go have fun dancing with them if that's your thing. If your friends are constantly getting into fights and ending up at the hospital then you're probably going out with the wrong people to the wrong places. If you just want to have some drinks and conversation than go to the bar or a house party. I feel like everyone here hating on clubs for not being able to talk, loud music, and expensive drinks is like complaining about not being able to enjoy a book at a movie theater. | ||

Actually it's the converse of that. If you are intelligent/nice/interesting, this disqualifies you from grinding on drunk girls in a club. I mean, it's just like those people who wear their hats sideways. If you wear your baseball cap sideways, I automatically assume you are garbage and I don't want to talk to you. These are choices that you make (however small) which say a lot about what kind of person you are. | ||

If you're basing your hate off going to ghetto fabulous clubs where dudes are allowed to wear flat brims and shit, then yeah, you might have a point. Give a real club with a real DJ a try... you might change your opinion... | ||

I've been to college bars with dancefloors where sketchy guys with sideways baseball caps grind on 18 year old drunk girls. You mean that sort of place is not a club? I guess buying a table with a group of friends for a good DJ at a sick club venue isn't trashy. I shouldn't have made dumb generalizations about every person who has enjoyed being at a club! Sorry It's cool man | ||

Lol if you read my first post I made an exception for that kind of thing. "Clubbing" means going to pick up chicks at a club where I'm from. That's why I don't like people who "go clubbing." However, simply "going to a club" is different. | ||

I used to loath clubbing, I cant dance, hate the music and hate pretty boys... But I will say you have to have A FEW drinks(dont get hammered cuz your just sloppy then) and as hard as it is you just have to let yourself go because no one is judging you and most people are there for a good time, ask girls to dance because if they say no just think to yourself who cares. | ||

You need to visit better countries/clubs. I love clubbing in Seoul, the music/atmosphere in Hongdae is great and there's almost no violence/drugs. Though, if your experiences are anything like the few times I went out in the district near the american military base I can't blame you for hating clubbing. | ||

Instead, go with a group of friends with a different mindset - make fun with the group, with eachother, order some rounds, dance even though nobody really knows how to dance. After a few drinks your body will know what to do by itself. | ||
