    Heading to the local pub on your own is ok, methinks. Night club? Weird..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 455 ✭✭Xyo

    Worst case scenario if someone finds out that you're flying solo for the night, just say you came with friends but lost them on the dancefloor.

    Imaginary ones ofcourse, because only people with no friends would have to go on their lonesome.

    Depends on your reason for going.

    If you like dancing, then you're gay ok.
    If it's for drinks/drugs, then you may have a problem.
    If it's for wimmen, it could be viewed as sleazy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,479 ✭✭✭Volvoboy


    On your tobler? Nah just get really really drunk.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 371 ✭✭chrism2007


    theres always one tosser who seems to be there by himself.

    always a dodgy looking fooker that stares up other peoples missus


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,967 ✭✭✭Pyr0


    Yeah it's pretty weird alright. I wouldn't do it.

    How so? I'm not going to be groping them. Just rubbing up against them whilst dancing.

    Sir Henry's in Cork years ago, there was this old guy there EVERY Saturday night. Just staring at the wimmin all night long. Creepy guy so he was. And that club is famed for beautiful wans (among other things) in very, very short skirts. He's a bit of a legend today, as is Sir Henry's.

    Is that you OP?

    Well yeah it's unusual - you surely know that though?

    No, that's why I'm asking. See what others think. I do usually go with my friends but we often get seperated in their anyway so what's the difference going on my own!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,195 ✭✭✭✭Michellenman


    I'd see it as a bit odd. What if you got tired of dancing? You'd just be standing at the bar by yourself/sitting down by yourself. Most of the craic of going to a nightclub is going with your friends.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    Meh, if you're happy to be alone, who cares what others think...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,158 ✭✭✭donmeister


    Kinda sad to be honest.........


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,195 ✭✭✭✭Michellenman


    @Dudess: The OP apparently if they're asking us.

    Are you one of these people who go to the cinema alone too?:p

    I suppose some people are just more comfortable in their own company than others. Personally I prefer going out with a group.

    How would you know anyway if you're alone?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,791 ✭✭✭JJJJNR


    Depends on the night, if it was somewhere like copper faced jacks then it would be weird, but if there was a specific DJ/Band playing a club well then I dont think its weird at all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,318 ✭✭✭O'Coonassa


    No weirder than going to the pub on your own really IMO I suppose it might be a bit different in the big shmoke where the places are full of strangers. But sure you'd get chatting to them just as handy I suppose.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 182 ✭✭magenta73


    Just after been talking to the brother-in-law (he's a door man in a well known nite club in Dublin) oh and he's one of the nice door-men, anyways, he was just saying that lots of people go on their own, but apparently you only dance if you've pulled, otherwise people will think your weird if your dancing alone!:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    @Dudess: The OP apparently if they're asking us.
    Yeah but what we think doesn't matter if he enjoys it. If he really likes it, a bunch of strangers on the internet should surely not stop him...

    Oh yeah I've done so. Cinema - one of the most anti-social things there is. Could never understand the necessity for accompaniment.
    I suppose some people are just more comfortable in their own company than others. Personally I prefer going out with a group.
    Me too - I'd never go to the pub, for dinner, a nightclub, on holidays... on my own, as I consider these group events.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,953 ✭✭✭Vinta81


    Nope, I'd feel really uncomfortable ann very vulnerable by myself.

    Besides the whole point of clubbing for us, it too get a group of us girls and go out, dance just have fun.

    No friends??



    I'm not offering to be your friend if you have none you have none for a reason. Just win the euromillions and you'll have many friends.

    Going to the cinema by yourself is heaven on earth.

    Nobody asking annoying questions because they can't be bothered paying attention to the plot.
    Or falling asleep on your shoulder, or convinceing you to attempt to film hop.

    Coppers is so jammers, and people are so available for conversation that it is the ideal place to do it.

    I don't think it is wierd anyway.
