is it normal to party in your 30s?

[revannt]

I've been thinking about this for a while, but usually, the early 20s are typically used as a time period to establish yourself and get ahead as much as possible career wise. yet, it's sort of socially frowned upon to party in your 30s with this being the case. Why? For me, this doesn't really make that much sense.

Instead of trying to get the approval of other people, think about what's good for yourself in the long run.

Most people actually don't care what you do as long as it isn't committing a crime. For those who butt into your business and try to tell you what is appropriate for you, they are pushing an agenda and it's on you to keep your frame.

Epstein partied in his 60s.

 

[CornbreadFed]

I basically purged the friends who were still partying in their 30s. It's your life, though.

depends on what you mean by partying...but either way, i don't see a problem with it as long as it doesn't involve heavy drinking or hard drugs.

don't think for one second that this whole "act your age" adage means that you have to comform. it's just a social tool to control people with shame for not being cogs in the machine. it has no real meaning to it.

lets examine the next stage of our life: our 40s and 50s, where "acting our age" means having a fat gut while developing diabetes, man tits, low T, and erectile dysfunction, while being henpecked by a toxic nagging wife who is on the verge of divorcing you. does that sound like a good idea to you? personally I do not plan to act my age and develop diabetes.

I partied 3 nites a week in my early 30's. Don't see why you would worry about what others think.

 

[BPH]

My brother turns 31 this year, and I'm 32. We both party hard as f***, especially when together.

yeah was thinking the same thing, and also if you're grinding in your 20s idk how to manage this

I am basically way more young to say anything but I'm about to reach 30's so.. just give me any advice before reaching my 30s

You're a one ****ty example of a friend and a total party **** block.

There is nothing wrong with partying hard in your 30s. Just take care to avoid dumb decisions that can sometimes come with the territory (driving intoxicated, getting some sloot pregnant you want nothing to do with long term, etc.). The older you are as a man the more open women are to getting knocked up by you in your 30s than your 20s especially if you’ve begun to establish yourself with some social proof and financial stability. These are the type of things that can set you back.

Nothing inherently wrong with partying hard. I’m 40 and while it’s not a super consistent thing I still will go hard at it maybe once every months. I regret it more often the next morning just because I’m getting older and my body doesn’t handle the alcohol like it used to. lol

Sorry, we have nothing in common anymore and I have limited time. Plus, being hungover has much more consequences now.

I "partied" into my late 30s but far less compared to my 20s, by "Partiied" I mean clubs, bars, house parties etc
I'm in my 40s now, a "Party" for me is Brunch or watching the World Cup with a buddy or two, having a couple drinks at the local bar or pub as they say in Great Britain

I just don't see myself going to clubs anymore and I remember in my 20s I always found it weird guys with potbellies in their mid-40s looking to sarge chicks. heck I even remember guys in shape in their mid-40s chasing after college girls. Just seems kind of empty for me like if you didn't get that out of your system in your 20s and 30s yikes

How are the pubs in London? Can they be chill, or are they salty spatoon drunk vomit mess?

 

[Velasco]

of course it’s socially frowned upon. it’s also socially frowned upon to be dating girls still in school that are 15+ years younger than you. will they think your weird for it? of course. but when your balls deep inside some fresh hot 18 year old chick, will any of that matter?

Normally, by the time people reach their 30s, they've found more interesting and productive ways to use their time. Partying does have some social benefits though, so there's no reason to stop it altogether if you want to keep going. I would guess it wouldn't be quite as often or not quite so intensely though. Partying too much in your 30s could signal you have some addiction issues with alcohol or other substances. And to just throw this out there, alcohol is a carcinogen.

 

[Slag]

Can you still party in your 30's? Haha! In my local small town bar scene there's plenty of people partying hard in their 40's, 50's, and hell, even 60's. All with varying levels of consequences, of course.

 

[Mike32ct]

I partied in my low 30s. Probably too much lol.

It can be done. But be smart about it and know that time flies.

 

[Hal9000]

Nothing wrong with blowing off some steam, at any age. Heck its probably a good thing if you arent reckless about it. I wouldn't recommend it be a full time spring break kind of thing as a 30+ year old adult but they do say its better to burn out than fade away, so...
