Rules to follow in a libertine club when you're a single man
Libertarianism is based on a fundamental principle: the consent. As a single man, you'll be under particular scrutiny. Your attitude will determine whether you're welcome or not.
The golden rules :
- No means no. Don't negotiate, don't insist. If someone declines your approach, move on with a smile.
- Ask before you touch. Even if the atmosphere is warm, a look or an explicit invitation is necessary before any physical contact.
- Keep a low profile. Avoid staring at people, following them or intruding into their private spaces.
- Respect privacy. What happens in the club stays in the club. No photos, no videos, no outside comment.
- Join in the fun. Dance, talk, smile. A pleasant, sociable man will be much more successful than a silent observer.
This will immediately disqualify you:
- Non-respect of couples' areas
- Insistence after a refusal
- Aggressive or alcoholic behaviour
- Photos or videos
- Inappropriate comments
Mistakes to avoid when you're alone in a libertine club
Many lonely men unknowingly sabotage their evening. Here are the most common mistakes:
- Come with friends Two men together is complicated enough. Three or more? You won't get through the door. Clubs perceive groups of men as a threat to the evening's balance.
- Standing in a corner Observing without participating makes others uncomfortable. You come across as a passive voyeur. Move around, dance, engage in conversation at the bar.
- Being too direct : Approaching someone with explicit sexual proposals in the first few seconds is the best way to get burned. Libertarianism is still a game of seduction. Take your time.
- Ignore negative signals A fleeting glance, a shortened conversation, closed body language: learn to read these signals and don't insist.
- Too much alcohol : One drink to relax you, yes. Five drinks that make you heavy and awkward, no. Alcohol is often responsible for behaviors that lead to exclusion.
