Another reason why people go to clubs is to look for one-night stands. However, that only works for good-looking super-charming guys; the rest are typically left to rot in the dust, as far as picking up girls is concerned. For girls, it's different; pretty much any girl can go to a club and find sex. In other words, it's the mating season on Animal Planet (a TV channel) at its worst. But since clubs and bars are one of the few ways for people to find a sex partner, everybody just keeps going back there weekend after weekend, thinking they can pick up someone there.
I'm nothing like that when it comes to finding sex partners. I well aware of how repulsive I look, so I don't delude myself into thinking I can find someone at a club. I only to there to get drunk, dance, and release stress from the grueling work week. Not that the clubs are relaxing by any means, but the large amounts of alcohol and the loud music release the stress built up during the week. And on a rare occasion, I can find a girl to dance with, even if just for a few minutes. But when my goal is to find sex, I go to escorts, not clubs.
Aspie1 you hit the nail on the head.
I have talked to NT friends about this, and they tell me that women go to clubs because they want to have the best looking, most popular guys hit on them, and then they will have a 1 night stand with them. They don't want to sacrifice in any area, whether it is looks, or the guy's social status. It is shallow, but it is the way it is.
Girls aren't all the same! Girls aren't all shallow!! Arghghhhhh!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !!Anyway, I do go to clubs, because I'm a DJ. Fortunately in London there are plenty of places that actually play great music and aren't all about having a drunken fumble against the wall to a song you don't actually like. I tend to pick one place and go week in, week out, until I know everyone from the promoter to the girl who does the door. If everything is nice and familiar I find I have a great time - also, I do find it easier if I'm DJing.
I have had anxiety fits/meltdowns in clubs. I remember when we did a whole week of gigs putting on bands that should have been in far bigger venues. I should have been having the time of my life, but I spent the whole time in tears. Nevermind, I've had some fantastic times too.
I was not trying to suggest that.
