Solo males at clubs

Obviously clubs are geared more towards easier numbers entry for solo women, or couples vs lone males... But I do wonder why so many men are seeking to tag along with a woman vs attending alone? (beyond the obvious)... Too shy? Feeling unwanted? Embarrassed?
What's the issue here, guys? |

Personally my own imagination led me to think it'd be - kinda seedy, sticky floors, dodgy old blokes & seedy looking women loitering in dark corners waiting to pounce (a bit like inner city casinos).
But surprisingly not?!... More a cross between a nightclub/leisure centre |

I've only attended one local to myself so far. But looking to venture to another this month (total novice )... But from what I've seen, I really like the environment... I think more folk should try before dissing it from what's sometimes said on here though. There seems to be a high prevelance of men who run a mile from the idea when suggested |

A high amount of men seem unable to go out by themselves and not just to swingers clubs.
They need the comfort blanket of a tribe (the lads!)
Confidence seems to waver for some when faced with single entry. |

You could put a word on it
I only get away for freedom in being able to do such things
Leisure is fine its a bit more 'personal comfort' or accommodative if it fits
Arriving with female isnt too bad if you meet one there it can change
If it stinks there u might leave early or there's too many guys
Wouldn't mind dashing into France camp naturist
Personally I think
People possibly no smoking
Outdoors or
Hot sexy-able indoors
Then see if we make it for the best

Some will want the woman as sex bait. Couples swapping.
Most people in general would rather not go alone to pubs, cinemas, restaurants, holidays. I don't think it's at all surprising that some men don't want to go alone. Going with a man friend to a Swingers club - some people would assume they are bisexual.
Same as if a man has a veri from a man, he clearly fucked him. They can't possibly have just chatted. |

The disproportionate cost of entry for single men v’s couples or single ladies.
No guarantee of sex
Most clubs limit the numbers of single men, and some events bar them completely
If they have no social skills they will be left alone all evening! |

"Also some think they'll look like a loser if they don't have a woman on show.
Which is daft, because we all know that 90% of single men at clubs have a woman at home. "
Fuck knows why they would think like that insecurity maybe or shy |

So do women not play with single guys at clubs incase they are married |

We don’t the question.
Not our business.
Polite chat, some flirting and maybe more. |

I don’t really care if they are in a club. I don’t ask.
I wouldn’t however choose to meet married guys. Too much drama. |

All of this - although it should go without saying that even if you go with a female it shouldn't be taken as a guarantee of sex |

OP - the issue is that it is tough being a single guy in a club and it is always nice to have someone you can talk to.
I am confident but I personally find it hard when you are between conversations and just hanging around like a spare. It is all very well and good to say “Oh just join a conversation” but the world doesn’t work that way and a single guy is often on the periphery.
Going with friends is much much much easier. |

I think there's a fair few guys who'd feel self conscious about going out solo- until you've been to a club you don't fully realise that it's a different environment to say going the pub or nightclub alone. In a regular environment (pub/bar) a guy being on their own could be judged as being a bit sad or a billy-no-mates whereas there isn't the same judgement in a swinging club. |

I guess someone who is:
a: not a natural extrovert
b: someone who is surrounded by groups who are talking and there is no natural way to start talking to them
My point isn’t that you turn up and stand around like a wall flower all the time - it was answering the OPs question why you would want to go with someone else. |

I've attended on my own and no problem. Chatted to some lovely people and had a play... Happy days. |

At some clubs it can be £60ish for single guys or £20 for a couple.
If you have a FWB it can be nice to do that kind of thing together, ostensibly as a couple.
It’s reassuring to have company when you’re going out anywhere, let alone a swingers club. Especially if they’re first timers or socially anxious.
Maybe the woman is experienced or well connected. The man will benefit from introductions.
Men might feel they will be ignored by couples or will be the wallflower. Maybe they think by attending as a ‘couple’ they will be more socially accepted.
I’ve been a couple of times on my own and had no problem chatting with folk, but it was a more fun night when I went with someone. |

I've been to one club night, went myself to the preceding social, chatted to some nice people and left when I realised that I was just wandering around by myself without talking to anyone.
I'm not naturally one for breaking in to groups of people so I did find it difficult to get into conversations, that's just me.
Having been to a club it once I'm more confident about doing it again.
At a club, like on here, don't expect anyone to throw themselves at you just for existing, you'll be golden. |

I went as a single guy to Vanilla Alternative, and can see why it would be offputting if you go alone and aren’t very outgoing. I was feeling brave that day so spoke to the biggest loudest group and realised how amazing, welcoming and friendly everyone was - especially if you go in without an expectation or entitlement to play with whoever you talk to.
But I can see the cost barrier, and can see that people may want to go with someone to play with in case they are too shy to jump in the deep end and talk to people |

My only major foray into proper swinging clubs was a weekend in Torquay half a lifetime ago. Some of it was ok but mostly I was treated like something they'd stepped in. One woman did strike up a conversation before her boyfriend quite obviously just placed himself between us with his back to me.
Based on that I would never go back to any form of swinging club. I can get treated like dirt for free. |

I'd love to attend a club alone, but nerves and anxiety/social anxiety gets the better of me. I guess going with someone helps to give you a bit more confidence and motivation, in my opinion. |

A site supporter pass on Fabs will give you that privilege too. |

There are couples out there who only look for single guys. It's not the norm, but guys, don't assume that everyone wants a couple.
I think different clubs are more suited to single guys than others.
Shhh in Newcastle for example, the layout of the bar area and tables makes it basically impossible to not share a table, so you don't have this whole "can I join you". Its just a few long tables so you don't really even need to ask, just politely introduce yourself, obviously don't just barge into a conversation.
I also think some clubs have more regulars than others which makes things more tricky.

For some people it is a cost issue, some clubs allow free entry for women and ramp up the single male charge to recoup some money so it is an easy way out to try and couple up. Sometimes it's a confidence thing, some men do find it daunting to go to a club on their own so easier if they have a wingchick. I've never had an issue like this as I'm very sociable and have never seen clubs as a place to worry about. I went to a club last week that I'd never been to before on my own without the safety net of having friends there and it was the same as any other night. If you take time out to be polite and chat to people it's a great experience, more people should try clubs. |

Had to wait around on my own in a bar last week, social meet was running late. Very awkward 30 mins, I’m a confident person but really did feel like everyone there was judging me, not pleasant. |

The cost thing would piss me off as well. I get it, nobody wants a sausage fest but at the same time it does make you feel like a loser having to pay more.
Will definitely check out clubs at some point, IF I can even get an invite, but a private night with a couple is much higher on the list for me. |

Im planning on going to my first ever club visit in the next month or 2 (monkey business I think) on my own.
Years ago I wouldn't have dreamed of going somewhere on my own, but I think I've reached a point in my life where I have just stopped caring about being alone in public.
Ill happily go to a restaurant or bar on my own, find a seat, grab a drink or food and just chill, read on my phone, whatever. If someone wants to think I'm a loner.... Cool, doesn't effect me, I'm doing what I want.
My plan for visiting a swingers club is to get my ticket, say hello to the hosts, take a tour round and then find a nice seat near the bar to grab a soft drink, take in the surroundings and listen to the music.
If anyone talks to me, I'll happily have a conversation about anything, if I find a chance to segway in to a conversation by adding some value, I'll do it.
I think over thinking these things cripples a lot of people in loads of situations. Just go. |

I usually attend solo, but have on occasion taken someone. I go to clubs because I love the environment and feel of the places.
Cost is a major one for some, the price for a solo guy can be 3 or 4 times that of a couple.
For me, its more fun to be with someone, to be able to discuss fantasies that could be achieved in that environment - maybe she just wants to e watched, so you use a public playroom, maybe she just wants to watch and have you there as a shield from the wanking dead...
There is also one truth to going to clubs as a bloke, if you want to be sure of fun, take someone one who wants to have fun with you. |

I went to club play in Blackpool last year. Just on the off chance. It was super friendly. Funnily enough, it was ages before anybody started playing, but the atmosphere was really nice. People were chatty and uninhibited. I was apprehensive, but I'd certainly go again. |

First time I went to the old hellfire club in Sunbury I did it on my own on a greedy girls night.
It was a really bad choice of night - early December and bloody freezing out. There was about 20- 30 guys there and only one couple! Another couple came in, went to the couple's only section and then legged it.
A few of the guys got proper arsey about the sitch - me ? I hit the dancefloor and did what I'd do in any club I'm on my own in - I danced to 90's eclectic choons and enjoyed myself.
It's all about setting your own expectations and managing your emotions. Oh and don't overthink it! It's a social environment where all the usual rules still do apply - only naked people might be wandering around and or people in fetish gear. |

I applaud any guy who goes to a club on his own. I've personally taken some of my male friends for their first club visits as I know how nervous I get going club alone so can't imagine how it is for single guys.
The costs are crazy and at least with me being with them, I chat to people and get involved so they can breathe without the added pressure of starting conversation in unknown places. |

Maybe men are afraid of being viewed as a desperate weirdo turning up alone. Like the podt cos suggests otherwise. |

We aren't little lambykins you know? This is an environment where if you do score then there's an expectation that you'll get naked and provide a pretty good fucking experience!!! That's not for the faint hearted or those that need their hands holding I'm afraid.
Going into any social environment is my weakness but I force myself to do it because life as a hermit would be shit. Apparently in most cases I'm not terrible at it. So what if sometimes I suck? It's worth it for the one time I don't.
To coin a military phrase that's losing popularity - literally - man up and get in there and stop being your own worst enemy!!!!! |

I get that but when I first started going myself, I didn't know how to start conversations with people or what even to expect with the club scene. I almost quit the club scene after my first club because I felt so alone and isolated.
Now I don't care, I will be on the stripper pole bruising every part of mu body thinking I'm a pro. But it wasn't until recently I discovered that was the best way. |

OK, this is just from observation, but I think it's a bit like moving to a new town where you have no friends. The first few times you go out it's going to be excruciatingly painful, but if you keep on going regularly to the same place you'll gradually get to know a few people and it will steadily get better.
There are some single guys who seem to know everyone, and to be very popular, and apparently get a lot of play at clubs. But you have to invest a lot in "building your brand". |

You are female! The man up comment is not intended for you at all Its meant for the guys.. In a very competitive environment you either step up or step out. No different really to vanilla dating basically. |

I think as a guy I am more comfortable going on my own to the bi nights. I have gone alone on other events but the atmosphere is very different. Almost intimidating |

Is that because of a predatory atmosphere? |

I hate seeing guys following ladies or couples around like they are following the pied piper. Maybe the silent weird looks etc unnerved me. I always found that it's the opposite on a bi night. Maybe it's just me |

Nah - it was quite predatory the night I went to one when there was only one couple there. I didn't let that get in the way of enjoying the music and venue though. Unlike the others I went for the experience not the sex. |

Well thats what sets us apart i guess. The reasons we were there. Its not the sex for me but being with and around like minded people. You can be your authentic self |

I would have thought cost plays a massive part in this along with limits on entry. The difference in costs for a single fella can be huge and that's if they aren't over subscribed already.
Being part of a couple makes it more affordable, gains entry to more events and has the advantage of having a person to initially chat and be with. |

love going to a club as a single straight guy - having a chat and giggle and if i'm a lucky fella getting invited to join in some fun - but also enjoy meeting up with a lady at a club for a chilled out afternoon or evening of fun too - its not about anything other than some relaxed fun with like minded people |

"Obviously clubs are geared more towards easier numbers entry for solo women, or couples vs lone males... But I do wonder why so many men are seeking to tag along with a woman vs attending alone? (beyond the obvious)... Too shy? Feeling unwanted? Embarrassed?
What's the issue here, guys? "
I've been to several clubs by myself; Townhouse (x4), No.3 (x3), Club f (x5), Atlantis, Club Play, Cupids, and La Chambre.
I've also been to No.3, Club f, and Chams Darlaston as a couple, and can tell you, I will always prefer to visit in the company of a female. Not because I'm too shy (I've been far more often by myself), not because I want cheaper entry, but simply because I feel more welcome, as the male half of a couple |
