Is it normal for 30 somethings to go clubbing every weekend?

I've been speaking to a guy who goes clubbing about 3-4 times a week. He is 33. He openly admitted he has one night stands most weekends, and goes on holiday to places like Thailand where he had sex with several women in one night. So it sounds like the reason for going to clubs is sex.

I haven't been in a club since I was 22, and I think it's a bit odd for someone to do this every weekend if they are over the age of say, 25. No judgement against people who are older and go to clubs on occasion, but doing it every weekend?

I don't think me and him are compatible so I will probably bin the conversation, but am I a boring old fart to think most people in their early 30s are living a quieter life by this point?

YANBU to not consider him as a potential life partner, definitely not!

Otherwise hard to say, I peaked around 25 clubbing wise and gradually dialed down til about 30 and haven’t really been out clubbing since, no interest no energy. I’d rather go to a gig for music I enjoy, or to a quiet bar to socialize with friends (or even better dinner / good food). Have been like that for a few years now.
But I acknowledge other people have different preferences so clubbing in your 30’s isn’t impossible I guess. Although every week sounds excessive.

Clubbing? Meh, each to their own.

Multiple one night stands including several people per night abroad? Not so much. No matter the age.

This! I wouldn't give a shit about him being single, in his 30s and still out clubbing. But having multiple one night stands, sex with Thai hookers and telling you all about it would be enough to put me off.

Give him a wide birth. And if you really do want to have sex with him use a condom.

As per pretty much everyone else - you’re conflating several issues.

The clubbing every weekend at that age is absolutely fine.

The sleeping with multiple people means - don’t go near with a barge pole.

He sounds like a real catch!
