Frustrations of the Single Scene (71)
jch2012glasgow, Strathclyde, Scotland UK3 Threads 14 PostsHope this does'nt sound sound like self pity.Went to a local singles club for the first time tonight.Got there early,so was at a table of eight by myself.Eventually two groups joined the table.I tried to make conversation,but I was made as welcome as a fart in a space-suit.It was obvious that they were couples/married and this was their local.To sum up.felt total frustration as I was unable to go to another table,as the place was fairly full up by then and eventually left early.My question is why the hell do married couples or in relationships go to these night outs?And why do the organisers let it carry on?

I can totally understand your frustration. But alas, I have no answer for this - Sorry!
All I can say is, keep trying and also, I have heard that some of the CS meetings are quite 'fruitful' - At least on them, you will only be meeting the people from CS!!
Good luck!

some couples go to singles nights to remember were they met for the first time or married couples use it as an excuse to tune thier relationship up. I find it anoying too as i went to one and the only person talking to me was my cousin.
Cheers Jo.Just a sense of annoyance,as the publicity blurb from the organizers say "there are no strangers at ******(well non minty chocolate sweets in green box)just new friends you haven't met yet"Aye right!!.As Emmylou Harris sang "C'est La Vie"
have you thought of looking further than your immediate area,it worked for me

I think I was annoyed at the idea that a Singles Club,and it is advertised as such,allows its membership to be so lax that married or couples groups have such a prevalence at the event.At one point I heard the DJ mentioning a couple by their married title,so it is obvious that this is allowed.I won't be mingling there again.
ive heard theres alot of that and it makes single people feel uncomfortable
mike you are a sensible man
