is it normal to party in your 30s?

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.

if you don't mind me asking, did you party into your 20s?

they do say its better to burn out than fade away, so...

Yeah, they say that until they get older and realize life is still worth living.

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

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

like how much? like crazy?

Back then, I went to clubs locally a few times a month plus 1 or 2 Vegas trips a year.

Yes. At least for me.

It is settled then, OP. The general consensus from the board is that you can party in your 30s as long as it doesn’t interfere with your health, career, finances, or other priorities.

The question shouldn't be is it frowned upon or not by others, it should be "Have I outgrown this now?"

Most men when they hit their 30s really don't feel like doing the things they thought was fun in your 20s. For me, when I hit my mid 30s I lost all interest in going 'clubbing'. I would have stopped sooner, but in my 30s I was living in Europe, so it was all sort of new and interesting, but after a couple of years doing that... I was partied out.

After my divorce in my mid-40s, I got back on the wagon again, but quickly figured out I just couldn't do it anymore without screwing up my health and purpose.

I definitely had the energy to do it in my 30s, I just really didn't want to any more.

I used to go out routinely every weekend due to fomo. When Covid started popping up, I used it as an excuse to stop going out. I realized I didn't miss it at all and I left it at that. I will go out on a special occasion, but those routine club days are over for me.
