I just got back from this nightclub that I guess I'm visiting regularly now. It was a lot less crowded than it was on Halloween so I decided to follow the typical advice: Make eye contact with a woman and see what happens from there. I sit, and nothing happens. No women even look at me. No one seems to notice I'm looking at them. Male or female. And I start to wonder, what am I doing wrong? You're supposed to come here and meet people, right? Namely women? How is this supposed to work? What's the process? What are any of us here for? Why did anyone else come here? What's the appeal of this place, what's enjoyable about being here???
And then three dudes come to my table. They ask if anyone is sitting there. I say no, please, join me. We exchange names, and then return to our phones. And after a few minutes, I decide to go for it: I ask them what you're supposed to do here. Why they, or anyone, would come here.
From their response, I'm guessing they thought I was confused about how quiet the club was at the time. They tell me that around 11:00 there'll likely be a dance floor full of people, and you're supposed to jump in the crowd and dance around. I say "Okay, and then what?" They seem baffled by my retarded question. They ask me if I drink, and offer to buy me shots along with them.

On my way home I'm thinking about how hard it was to socialize there and how I was flying blind. How the only people who spoke to me were people who were patient and considerate enough to take a chance on me. Until the main takeaway dawned on me: None of those dudes said "You're supposed to be here to talk to women/people." Which tells me that going to the club looking for hookups is not a common thing for normie men. No, you come here to dance and get drunk. Or if it's a nightclub with more tables than floor space, you come here just to get drunk. Like on a date. People aren't really socializing. The only reason they even spoke to me was because they're patient, considerate, and they needed my table. Literally everyone else in that club stuck with the group they came in with.
But if I'm wrong, how about you? Are you socializing/hooking up at nightclubs? Are any of you even old enough to drink?
