I don't drink so can I go clubbing?

[Canadien]

As hard as it could be to believe as it stand I have never gone to a club in my life, despite being crazy about club music, I listen to it everyday..

Biggest Hurdel for me is I don't drink, not even beer, so is it possible to enter the club without getting a drink?

what kind of environmkent should I expect?

Is it good idea to go alone the first time or will I get overwhelmed? Is having a friend coming along crucial?


So far. I'm trying out all sort of approaches to practice my conversation skills, this is my second month since I vowed to move away from shy my personality, I have never dated in my life because of this personality, and I will do everything in my power to change this.

Usually I'm approaching people in Bus, Metro, class, gym, but in most of these situations conversation is leading toward only general intrersts, career goals, and some personal question, would this change in club environment?

Should I just be content with learnning basic conversation skills, and becoming comfortable with woman around or should I dare one stage higher and start asking for their phone number.

Going alone is fine, but maybe not your 1st time.

As for not drinking, many "Pick Up Gurus" insist on only drinking soda when sarging. So that can be good for your game.

Most of my club phone #'s are dead ends. They sober up and can't remember all that much about me, so they never see me again. The goin' is slow, unless you sleep with her that night.

Anyway, there's 1,000 things on this board about clubs, but the most important thing they say is, go because you like them, not only to sarge, and be friendly to everyone - especially bartenders and bouncers. (This is a rare case of something useful I actually learned from this forum.)

And, yeah, you really can't have a normal conversation about work and where you're from. You've got to be a bit more random. Look up "gunwich method" on here.

I stopped drinking at clubs a long time ago and it was the best thing I ever did, so I would recommend going to clubs and not drinking. It makes you more aware of what is going on and I tend to leave a lot earlier with a girl which gives me more "sheet time" back at my place.

If you are into club music, then use it to your advantage in your conversations, show that you are at the club for the music and not just to pick up chicks. Also try some underground clubs with great DJ's mixing some original stuff, it makes for a great conversation piece in the real world when you have some inside knowledge about a secret hot-spot.

Take some friends too for social proof and so that you can relax and enjoy yourself while you are there. Have a dance, drink some water, dress to impress and spark some interest.

Couple of weeks ago I would have disagreed with you on the idea of no drinking at a club but I surprised myself when I went out last friday alcohol-free. It was the best time I've had in a club since I started going to club. I did not get to take any chick home but I had the best time ever. What was funny was when I guy drunk came and started talking to me. I could picture myself in his condition when I drink at club. He talked to couple of girls and bought them drinks hoping to increase his chances of getting laid but all his efforts were futile. Oh yeah, the smell of alcohol from his mouth knocked me out of balance whenever he spoke. Sip on water not vodka.

Definately! Some of the best nights out that I have had were sober, certainly in terms of meeting girls. When sober I find that its easiest just to hang out with some mates at a table or quieter part of the bar and talk, maybe meeting a few girls at the bar. The d-floor just angers me unless im too drunk to notice it!

I didn't know that the purpose of clubbing was to drink.

I don't drink when I go to night clubs.

Never have.

Used to do a **** load of drugs tho....

Now I go out completely sober.

And honestly it is the best state to go out. You will do way better with the ladies, have more fun, save more money, perform better when you take girls home, look better and be healthier.
