>For Tokyo and Seoul what would you suggest aiming for if you wanna go out and party but not necessarily with a young crowd? I guess my insecurities stem from not really knowing what kind of people go out to dances or places where people congregate and hang out or whatever.

Is it possible that you're using alcohol and partying as a crutch to overcome your insecurities? It's not going to work mate. Despite my decade of debauchery I'm still a sperg because I didn't work on addressing my own internal issues. Tequila and EDM may temporarily remove your inhibitions but they're not a substitute to learning how to be okay with being vulnerable around strangers. Did I have a lot of fun? Sure. Did I gain anything other than a quick temporary fix, lighter wallet, tinnitus and damage to my health? Not really. I would have been served better by going on Meetup or Facebook groups to play ultimate frisbee in the park, or group drawing classes, or some weekend hike thing. Some social thing in broad daylight and sobriety where people actually talk, maybe connect over a shared interest and maybe get together for a few drinks afterwards.

I know that's not what you want to hear. Before my current marriage I had another one (married in my early 20s) with a real vapid cunt. So I can relate to getting out of a soul sucking situation and feeling like I've missed out on capitalizing on my youth. But you are who you are at this moment in time. And there's a reason people keep asking this question whether it's weird for an older guy to go clubbing. It's because after a certain age a man should have higher value activities to occupy his time with and we all kind of know this to be true. Going halfway around the world to recapture lost youth doesn't change this. And anyway different people have different perspectives on what lost youth and opportunities mean. For me I wish I would have used that time to maximize my earning potential for the future.
