Finally loosened myself up enough to go clubbing and dance. It took some pre-drinking, but not too much since my mindset has shifted to becoming a more fun person. My objective was to go and dance to good music. I already know the difficulty of maintaining any conversations in the crowds, so I wasn’t aiming to bring a girl home.

We entered every club and basically walked straight to the dance floor. Started to get into the music immediately. The first club was the hardest to do, but once I stayed on the dance floor for a while, I developed momentum. It became easier to go to another club and start dancing right away. Hell, by the end of it, we were dancing throughout the entire club, just moving to the beat and enjoying ourselves.

Now throughout the night, there were girls that might have been giving IOIs. From looking at me, to coming up close to me. I think this girl was exposing her ass to me for me to start dancing with her. I moved around a bit but noticed her backside to me again. Since I'm inexperienced with clubs, I'm not sure what to do.

Even at the end of the night, some girls we saw at the club walked by us and straight up called me cute. They were drunk though. I didn't feel like approaching, but I think that because I spent all my time dancing, my SMV was much higher. I'm not particularly attractive. Not fat, not jacked, average height. Dressed well though.

Overall, I gained a new found appreciation for dancing, and hope to improve in this area. I realized how few men actually dance the entire time. Usually, they move back and forth a bit but don't do anything special, and eventually stop. I think by being the guy who dances the entire time and has fun, I'll be able to easily get a girls attention.

So, to those who are experienced, what are the IOIs and how do you successfully dance with the women there? How do you escalate? How do you succeed in this venue?
