I thought sometimes about going out solo, it's definitely a good thing. But then I remembered that many times I go out with some mates and I feel like dancing with a girl (usually the mates I go out with don't like to dance) I get separate from them without even noticing. Two nights ago I went to a club with 3 mates, but after I danced with 2 or 3 girls I couldn't find them anymore so I thought they were no fun anyway so it's better like this. Of course it is much more difficult to go alone from the start...

I like drinking especially when I'm going out with some mates to a bar, but if I go to a club I try to do it less just to be sober but also have a good mood. So I don't really agree with the "don't drink at all" idea, at least it's not for me. Also, I discovered that for me, in small quantities, alcohol can be somewhat stimulating, it makes you more creative and helps you relax.
