It happens to everyone. One minute you’re having the best time dancing away with your friends when suddenly, in the corner of your eye, you spot your ex lover or friend. That one person who will manage to ruin your night just by looking at them. How dare they be in your club. How dare they dance where you dance. They shouldn’t be allowed in, right? Wrong. It’s never easy breaking up with someone, especially if you’re the dumpee. So it’s even harder seeing them in the same club. Same for ex friends, or people you just hate in general. But there comes a time in your life when you must step up and be the bigger person and face your fears (or run into the bathroom for half an hour drinking vodka).
Avoiding people in clubs is easy. Usually, once you turn your back, the person you’re with or avoiding is lost in the crowd. However, if they do suddenly appear, try and turn your head around without making it obvious that you’re avoiding them. If your eyes do meet, smile then turn away. Being the bigger person essentially gives you the power and gives the illusion you’ve moved on from the relationship or friendship (clever right?).
If you happen to bump into them physically (or they to you), turn around smile and apologise. You’ll look more mature and if it was anyone else you would have done the same thing.
If this person gives you dirty looks, give a smile back. It will irritate them more without making you look like a bitch.
There is nothing trashier than starting a verbal fight in a club. So if this happens, be mature and walk away or take the conversation outside. Otherwise it looks pathetic and immature.
If this person does try to get physical, walk away or talk to security. Fighting in public is uncool and you could both end up being kicked out or with a public nuisance fine.
A club is place for everyone to be able to let loose and have fun. There is no reason why two people who dislike each other should ruin it for everyone else and themselves. Be smart when going out, after all, no guy or girl is going to want to take home someone who’s just got into a verbal or physical fight.
