"I’ve only ever had a fun time when I’ve gone along with others, or been meeting others there. Flying solo at a swingers club ain’t for me." Me either apparently! | |||

"This is half in relation to my Cupid's experience last night which if you didn't know, was not the one for me Has anyone here gone to clubs solo? What are your thoughts on dress down policies, the vibes, the ClIQUES (yes we can talk about cliques again!) and the general sexiness of the place? On paper they should really be for me but SOMETHING is just unsettling and I'm genuinely over confident in life so it's not shyness..." When you say made to dress down you mean to boxers or fully stark at the front door? | |||

In essence, you can’t wear typical clothes to access the club area, this entrance is separated from outside via a reception and changing room. | |||

"OP, my thinking is this is a Cupids specific thing! There’s something about the immediate dress down, the layout of the club, cliques, the bar area, etc, etc; it’s nothing you can put your finger on but I’m not alone in my thinking as I’ve had this conversation previously inside and away from the club. There’s other clubs within a reasonable distance that ‘do it better’ for solo swingers. Before the Cupids groupies descend on the thread and my inbox, I’m not suggesting it’s a bad club or poorly run; I’ve visited and played at Cupids enough over the years as a single / couple / group / private event host, so I’m speaking from personal experience." I'm popping you a dm! | |||

On paper they should really be for me but SOMETHING is just unsettling and I'm genuinely over confident in life so it's not shyness..." It's not just me! I recently went solo (it wasn't a dress down occasion) but I just felt that wasn't for me. Though I'm not shy, but I did feel that trying to force myself to get included with others, I'd have to become something I'm not. Plus there was also that unsettling feeling too. However, I did come away feeling that I'd learnt more about myself and what I enjoy and what I don't. So not entirely a negative or wasted experience. | |||

"I've mostly been to a club on my own and I think it's much easier when you go with someone ornat least know people going there as well as it really makes the overall experience more comfortable. It's a psychological barrier I'm still trying to overcome as I find I'm great in group social situations but there have been times I overthink and nerves get the better of me in clubs. I get what you mean about cliques though. Some people are regulars so will talk to other regulars which can make it hard to break into and as a single guy, you HAVE to make the first approach which I've struggled with. I keep thinking clubs may not be for me but I'm being stubborn in really wanting to make it work " See I make first approaches usually and have never struggled with that. But I think between not finding most of the people attractive, it smelling sweaty, and the few hot women absolutely SURROUNDED by men, I just thought it wasn't the right dynamic for me. But there's others! | |||

I get what you mean and making that approach is half the battle won for me as I means I'm not on my own overthinking but I get those other factors too, throw in the fact people are literally having sex a wall away that you can hear and it does feel a bit weird. I will say that it could just be that specific night? No 2 club nights are the same in my experience and it's all about the people there that makes it either a good night or a bad one. | |||

"In Glasgow there’s often predrinks meet-ups organised, and advertised on here. That seems like a good way to meet and chat with a few people before all going along to the club together. But … it can be cliquey (not intentionally, just that it’s the same people and they all know each other) and it can lead to the whole thing feeling like a social and not a sex thing." Thing is I get the cliques, they naturally happen. But my word, make and effort with people going on solo no? It wasn't mad busy either! | |||

Mark the date down. I agree with Brucey " I have only a couple of brain cells functioning at the moment so not really sure how to go about it but it was on my mind for a while now. Some kind of “pool” where we can state availability and location to organise ourselves and possibly car share, that kind of thing, if it makes sense? | |||

"I been to cubs as a single guy and still on occasion on my own or for a while I'm waiting for Mrs to come later. I think you have to treat it a it like if you were going to the pub alone. Looking to socialise, make connections and maybe pull but also just being happy to take in the ambiance and what's going on around you. Because it's all dependent on who's in. You may not find your people and no one owes you entertainment or their time. Any advice is actually not much different to coming from a couples perspective. Basically people genrally won't come to you (everone tends to be a little shy). So you have to make effort to say _ello. However you also need to be able to read the room and judge when the time is right. And don't be that annoying pest who keeps trying to push forward with an encounter that really isn't going anywhere. Be OK with no, not for us or even the cold shoulder. People are there to find their own thing, so don't take it to heart and move on. Rejection is normal and OK. As for cliques there common in clubs. Yes it's not the most sociable freindly aspect of clubs but again people are there to do their own thing and people sometimes just want to concentrate in the groups they know and that is OK. Just put yourself out there with good humour and hopefully you'll find your people. Sometimes you do sometimes you don't." Thinking about it I think last night it was the immediate dress down that put me off. Other than that, I'm more than happy to mingle with people in pubs! | |||

" I likened it to ‘Moses parting the waves’ and ‘wearing Harry Potter’s invisibility cloak’, but now just refer to it as the ‘gatecrasher feeling’……when that moment clouds over me, I’m out of there What I’ve done in the past, before a club visit, is go somewhere for a meal first, to put myself in an unfamiliar place, and start conversations with strangers. Sort of a test drive, you know? Two visits to Townhouse, I went to the bar of the Village Hotel just down the road, for my evening meal, and found it quite easy to chat with strangers getting ready to go out. I never met anyone going to TH though! I went to the Albert and Lion on Blackpool front, before heading to Club Play, and you could not have had two further apart extremes of busy/friendly to quiet/unwelcoming…… But that was my experience, and other nights could be different for others. Clubs are very much ‘pot luck’ as a single guy | |||

Although it's fair to say been a naturist anyways in vanilla life I suppose dress down isn't an issue for me. But dressed up vs dress down I really don't think is the real difficulty. It's hard going on your own anyway regardless. But at the end of the day it is what it is. Go or don't it's your decision, we can't make it for you or make it any easier. All I know from personal experience it's not easy at all but glad I have and enjoyed the experiences I've enjoyed and the people I've met. | |||

I just go with the mindset of being surprised by a positive experience. My last club visit was to Club Shhh in Newcastle, just before Xmas, and although a quiet night for attendees, and the play areas quite cold, overall it was a nice club, and EVERY member of staff was only too pleased to chat with a new face (ie mine), making me feel welcome. Very rare I’m disappointed to say…… | |||

"I just don’t find the clubs to be sexy environments either. I know some people do, and I don’t want to kink shame, but they don’t do it for me. Which doesn’t mean I can’t have a good time in a club, if I’m there with the right person/people. Just that the place itself isn’t the thing." I'm the same, it's just not an environment that suits me. There is an exception. My local club is townhouse, and once a month they do a pub quiz night which runs completely differently to any other night. You don't have to be a member, there are no limits on single men or ratios of singles to couples, there's no entry fee (there is a ticket price but it goes towards your bar tab, it's not a specific entry fee). The only time you need to pay is if you're going upstairs to the play rooms, and that's not the main focus of the night. It's a different crowd to the ones there on a standard club night so it doesn't feel like those established groupings are hard to break into, and I've met some amazing people there. I think having no expectations or pressure brings people in who maybe wouldn't otherwise go, and it seems to work well as a social event. | |||

"I guess a lot of it depends on the type of swinging club you go to. Most of the ones I have seen mention in this thread I wouldn't go to even if I was with a group of people as they look like night clubs with a bed in the back room. Which is great for some people but personally not my kind of club. I like the kind of club where you can sit around have a drink and something to eat and chill. Have a game of pool or chess is a good ice breaker. I feel that kind of environment is more inviting for people to come alone. " I agree, there is a real lack of clubs that are social spaces - most have music that is too loud. It makes it really difficult to speak to people. | |||

"This is half in relation to my Cupid's experience last night which if you didn't know, was not the one for me Has anyone here gone to clubs solo? What are your thoughts on dress down policies, the vibes, the ClIQUES (yes we can talk about cliques again!) and the general sexiness of the place? On paper they should really be for me but SOMETHING is just unsettling and I'm genuinely over confident in life so it's not shyness..." I pretty much go on my own including that one!. It takes time to build up friends etc. I don't particularly like the dress down thing though straight away and I disagree with women getting in for free, apart from that it's what you make it | |||
