Put your big boy pants on and go on your own? Not many people are willing to risk their club membership on a newbie as they can't know how that person is going to behave in a club setting. Alternatively, try and arrange to meet someone in the club? |

Go on your own, what’s the worst that could happen? |

Think of it like any other bar or club and treat everyone with respect they'll make you feel comfortable... |

Can't your mum take you, she could hold your hand outside the door, she could stay with you till you settle in and make friends.  |

You've got a few clubs nearby. Read the reviews, look at their web sites, and pick one that looks like it might suit you. Then choose a suitable night, contact the club to get on the guest list if there is one, and go.
Dress decently, be friendly and sociable, and it can be a good night out. |

Its always hard.. and we recently took someone with us for the first time and it was just about having the support to walk through the door with someone. I do agree whoever would take you you would need some former relationship with first. So try building that up or maybe try a social and meet people that way and work up to a club.
The alternative is going on your own and while it may seem intimidating you will soon wonder what you were worried about.
Good luck! |

Would you say it's more the expense of an entry fee that's putting you off? If so, I totally understand and I would be more sympathetic to that than not having any bottle. I've always thought getting over the threshold was the easy bit. |

Well, where DO you go when you want to meet new friends? This is life. You walk into your first day of a new job alone, evening classes, football teams, whatever you do for fun. Swinging is no different. |

I agree, first time I went to somewhere like that back home, I went by myself. Still have to try it in the UK, but I will soon enough |
