I think online dating ruined clubbing

It's kind of funny how dating apps have ruined dating for average guys. Back in the day, and I mean like ten years ago, clubs were THE PLACE males went to if they wanted to find a relationship or get laid. Even an average guy could go to a club and get laid with some charm and game, because before the apps women's options were much more limited to the few guys who had the guts to approach them. That's why PUA became so popular in the 00s and early 10s, because it could actually work.

These days though about 40% of relationships start on dating apps. Women have much less incentive to go clubbing, because why would they when they have thousands of men to choose from on their phone. Going clubbing just means being pestered by men she's not attracted to, and she's comparing any man that approaches her to all the men available to her on dating apps. I went clubbing a few times this year on the weekend and was shocked by how empty the clubs are compared to even 5 years ago when every club was packed on a weekend night.

It also has another effect. Good-looking guys have no incentive to go clubbing either, because they have abundant options on the apps. Why would a guy go through all the hassle of going to a club full of sweaty drunk people, humiliating rejections, and hangovers when he can just set up dates from the comfort of his home? The men who still feel the need to go clubbing these days are the guys who CAN'T get any success on dating apps, uglier guys. This lowers the average quality of men going clubbing, which further disincentivizes women to go clubbing. Online dating is the nail in the coffin for average guys and makes PUA a thing of the past.

clubbing used to be fun and you could dance with Chicks and it was normal.


now Sloots just go clubbing with their Gay homo guy friends and the homos think they need to be some weird cock blocking *** wall.

try to dance with a chick and some weird gay dude will try to grind on you as a cock block.

In 2012 I went to a small disco teq in the Czech Republic and had a great night dancing with some locals. Went back in 2016 and asked my cousin what happened to the club. He said younger people don't go there anymore. Very sad srs. Zoomers are all autistic phone zombies. Deadly srs

This. Why blow $200 on drinks, plus all the money spent peacocking on clothes and cologne. When you can just sit on your toilet and swipe right on 100 chicks a night. One is bound to bite.

Then it's Netflix n chill time. Such effortless puzzy compared to a decade ago.

I think you’re being too narrow.

Covid pandemic, smart phones, social media, work from home, etc, etc, etc are driving a decline of all things genuinely social in the western world. I use the word “genuinely” because much of what constitutes socialising has become increasingly digital.

Online dating is just one part of all that.

Clubbing in 2008-2011 or so was prime... smart phones were just coming out and apps werent really that important to people yet. Dating apps barely even existed. I used to go to the black side of the club and grind up on the sisters as an italian... this was also the time jersey shore was popping off so girls were into us lmao. Used to piss off so many lil wayne look alikes it was fun af. My degen buddy used to meet girls every single night we would go and fuk them in the IHOP parking lot.... dude ended up wifing up one of them tho and that didn't end well.

Case of beer $25

drinking it a home in peace and quite doing what you want- priceless.
