When we talk about clubbing, we usually think about going to clubs with our friends. However, there are some people who go out alone. Now you must be wondering why some people would want to go clubbing alone. There are many reasons for that and, believe me, going to clubs alone isn’t as bad as some people make it sound to be. Have you ever been to a club alone? If you haven’t tried it then perhaps you should try going by yourself some day.

Now let’s get back to the main topic of why some people would go out alone. There are some people who go clubbing alone by choice, which is the minority, and there are also some people who prefer to go alone because their friends are unavailable, either if that means that they simply suck, or that they’ve just arranged something else for the night.

Because my friends are unavailable

There are times when you want to go clubbing and when you ask your friends, they’d say that they don’t have the time or they have some other things planned for the night. So you are there, sitting home and wondering what to do for the night. You really want to go out, but there’s nobody to accompany you. What are your options?

• Call the friend you haven’t talked to for two years.
• Stay home and browse YouTube.
• Go out alone!

I don’t really think you’d go with the first option, because if you liked that person you would have kept in touch, or at least have tried to go out with him more often. As for the second option, sure you could do it. But it’s so lame - such a waste of time. If you are going to stay home, at least use your time in a more productive way - read a book, do some work. Third option: The whole point of this website. To go out alone, forgetting about everyone and concentrating on yourself, and how to have a good time. The choice is yours, but I can tell you that some of the most fantastic nights I’ve had in my life were because I went out alone.

Because my friends have different interests

While some people have no choice but to go alone, there are also some people who do it alone because their friends don’t like clubs. That’s because some people prefer going somewhere quiet (such as a cafeteria), or they don’t like alcohol so they don’t even go to bars. While you like loud music, this does not automatically mean that your friends also like loud music. So what do you do in such a situation? You go out alone, of course! And that usually happens when you are, literally, sick of the same places - cafeterias, cinema, whatever. And the problem with those places is that there is absolutely no interaction with the other sex, so you hopefully take the decision to go alone, and there’s nothing you should be ashamed of. At this point you should try to make new friends who will have the same interests as you - in terms of going out. And the best place to find them is a club. So you can have your day-friends, which are the old ones, and you will also have your new night-friends, the ones you will be going to clubs
with.

Because my friends suck!

In addition, others go out just by themselves because they don’t like their friends or anyone in their group to criticize them, or give any negative comments about them. “Look how stupid he looks when he dances” or “wow his clothes really don’t go together” are just some of the things your friends could say behind your back. If they treat you like crap then why do you insist on going out with them? It simply doesn’t work this way. Instead of loosing your time with them, you can simply go out alone and see what happens. Do you have anything to loose? I don’t think so. If it works out well (you should define what “well” means for you) then you won and you can do this as many times as your want. If it doesn’t, you just lost some money but you hopefully gained some more experience.

You moved to a new town and you know nobody

There are also some people who moved to a new city and since they know nobody there, they don’t have anybody to go out with. That can happen in cases you have to move because of your job, because of a business trip, because you are going to study abroad etc. You are doing nothing wrong, it just happened that you changed surroundings. The people who need to go out alone because of this reason are the ones who are more likely to do it, and that’s because they have no other choice. People who do have friends might say “oh well this night I’ll do nothing, I can go out the next time” - even if they don’t go out the next time as well! But those who know nobody in their town, they are left with no options. If you are one of those guys, I hope you don’t waste your time in a strip club, as for some reason people who are alone prefer to go to places like that. Instead, invest on making new friends.

It can be easier to pick up girls this way

You must be wondering how it would be easier for you to pick up girls when you go clubbing by yourself. Well, many times our friends hold us back. They simply don’t give us the opportunity to approach a girl. How can this be possible? Well, imagine you go to a bar, and your friends decide to go sit in the corner, where no one is there. You tell them to go inside the crowd but they can’t be bothered. What should you do? You could leave from their company and play your own “game”, but that’s a bit graceless. So you’re stuck there, talking about the stuff you always talk. If it’s always like that, the only option is to go out alone, or find new friends to go out with. So yeah, it’s true, some men have better results when they are “hunting” alone. You don’t know what’s best for you unless you try all of your options…

Apart from that, when you are unaccompanied you will find that the girls who are attracted to you would be more willing to get close to you and start chatting with you. When you are in a group there will be very less chances of this happening as girls are a little hesitant when it comes to approaching men.

You don’t need to ask anybody

One good thing when you do it alone is that you no longer have to ask your friends whether they are interested in going for clubbing. This way, you won’t give them the opportunity to decline your invitation any more. I know it doesn’t feel good when your friends keep declining your invitation and by deciding to go out alone you won’t have to hear your friends say ‘no’ to you anymore.

What’s more, you can now say ‘no’ to your friends when they ask you to go out with them. Just tell them that you have planned something special for the night and that you have no time to go out with them. You don’t really need them to have fun…
