I am a male, so there is literally no downside for going to a club alone. Same applies to bars and/or other establishments build around the business of attracting females for profits.
I know we have discussed whether you would go to a bar alone on this forum, but what about a club?
I have been thinking of doing some travelling alone and I was talking with someone yesterday about a trip they just got back from. I asked them what there was to do at night and they said "go to the many clubs". I imagined being there by myself and asked myself if I could go to a club alone as a female.
I think I could go to dinner or a bar alone, but I don't know about a club. Although I would like to go, I'd have to work really harder to convince myself to do that. lol
What about you? Can you go to a club alone? (you know no one)
I could go to a club alone, but I'm a male. At the same time, I do imagine I would be looked at weirdly, but I shouldn't care about that.
I did once and the main benefit was that I spent less on drinks (no buying other people rounds). That was years ago when I was 26 or 27. I would usually stick close to the bar and talk to the staff.
It's better to go with someone if your goal is to meet someone else. I'm a little old for clubs now. Is 31 too old for them? idk, I haven't been since I was 29 in any case and was never very successful at them anyway. Usually what would happen was I'd blow $100 on overpriced drinks and regret it later.
At my age now I really don't give a damn about doing things alone if I want to do them. I love music and theater and will go to a show or concert alone. F*** other people if I can't find someone to go with me.
I can see how it would be different for a woman. They usually have the safety in numbers thing going on and a solo woman probably would attract unwanted attention.
Would and have. I don't wait around for life to happen, I make it happen. If friends are busy, I don't use that as an excuse to stay home. I've had some amazing times and met some amazing people going out by myself. The girl I recently started seeing was due to me going to a club a month ago by myself because I had nothing to do. Can't even tell you how glad I am I didn't stay home that night.
In my younger days when i would go clubbing i would prefer to go alone because i didn't have an audience to watch me chase girls. Although i also enjoyed going with women. One hot girl i knew would ask guys to buy her a drink and then she would give it to me. That was fun.
I don't even want to go to the club with a date or in a group. I definitely have no desire to go alone.
Going to a pub alone? A cafe alone? A restaurant alone? Sure.
But I don't like clubs, alone or accompanied. Just not my thing.

Agree with the above. Cafe, restaurant, theater, concert, major league baseball game? Yeah, they're more fun with others but I'd go alone-just went to a game by myself, in fact. But I'm not a club person in general and I think my discomfort in being there in the first place would show. On the other hand, I'm usually pretty invisible in public settings, so I'd probably be safe.

I'm certainly too old, but If I'm on vacation, I might enjoy people-watching there at night once or twice. I'm a big people watcher.
A music club to see bands? Yes, do it all the time.
A dance club? No, I don't dance.
Same here. I go to see live music all the time. I often go to one or two shows a week, and yes I do it by myself. Finding women who like the same kind of music I like is difficult. I haven't been to a dance club since I was in college over 25 years ago. I hate the music they play and I never had any success at all meeting women.
