First story in the 'newest' feed and I was already interested considering I share the exact same views.

I honestly dislike it too. I just dislike the idea of going out and making a fool of myself, so to speak and I think a lot of people feel the way you do too. What I would do, is to give it a try. It seems as though you're not interested in it at all, but once you go out, you may end up having a good time! You might even pick up chicks as well as making new friends!

I absolutely detest it. I don't know what university you're going to but if it's anything like the one I work at then, yes, Freshers Week will involve a reasonable amount of drinking (moreso than dancing). While I'd say it's really important to get out there and make friends as soon as possible, would you really want to make friends who only want to go clubbing all the time?

That's the negative - now the positive. My university has a huge range of societies, groups and clubs, ranging from sporting, music, film, politics, theatre, LGBT, etc. And if there isn't a club which matches your interest, start one.

There's nothing to say that the friends you'll probably end up living with in your second year and beyond are going to be doing to same course as you (in general, that doesn't happen). It'll be the people with the same interests.

I wouldn't avoid Freshers Week entirely, but it's not going to define who your friends are during your higher education.

I used to like clubbing but that was when I had nothing going for me and I just wanted to get drunk all the time.

Very normal! My friends are constantly trying to persuade me to come out with them, and when I do, I have the worst time. I'm worried too about this side to university life. Maybe go out a couple of times every so often. You don't have to go out at every opportunity, and you don't have to act a fool and get drunk if you don't want to. Be yourself and find other people like you by joining societies that interest you.

this is exactly how i feel! id much rather stay in , watch films with friends and eat take out

Just try to have fun and dance, maybe you will have a good time :)

there are so many people you will meet at college who feel the same way. Don't worry. For welcome week, go out to parties and try it because you'll meet lots of people who feel the same way: they are a;sp merely forcing themselves to go out because it's welcome week.

I Also dislike it. 100% normal :o.

I disagree with you referring to theatre as more mature than clubbing. I wouldnt consider clubbing immature. Some actions or some clubgoers; sure. But you have to consider that those two interests are just very different.

But yes, youre normal for having an opinion and a like or dislike for a particular topic or hobby. Nothing wrong with that.

hey you are quiet normal.i myself hate clubs.i am 19 and never been in the club so what.clubing has no connection with socializing.dont do things if you dont enjot it.live your life.there are always people who will have the same interests as you

I hate that stuff too. The truth is, you can find other people that don't like packed, loud, sweaty places - but they're harder to find, because they're in less populated, quieter places like coffee shops and libraries.

The good thing about finding those people, while they're harder to find, they often end up being better friends.

Just remember to be YOU. If your friends insist on dragging you to places that they know you don't want to go, they aren't your friends. Find new ones.

Lastly, get comfortable in your own skin. Hanging out alone and doing things that you enjoy can be very relaxing and pleasant. Don't be afraid to have plenty of "you" time.
