Yes, it's normal. My kids are your age and they also go out two or three nights a week. I was single until a year ago (I'm 42) and I used to go out a couple times a week, myself.

Normal?? Of course its normal! It's liberating to know that you can reconnect with yourself...again. You've beeni in a relationship where you were being restricted and now your living the life that was maybe more you than the person you were when you were "you and him". It's unbelievable how much of yourslef gets lost when your in a relationship, especially if it was an unhealthy relationship....ROCK on!!!!!! Enjoy life with just you! Find yourself...again or the "new you". It's a great journey!
Wait..your in your 20's?? Then it's MANDATORY...don't worry, you'll go thorugh sooo many different chages...eventually, you may run out of steam and just want to do the "low-key" thing...(dinner and drinks w/friends, hang out at a lounge or bar, or even throw dinner parties...thats where I am right now and I'm in my early 30's.... make sure you always have time to yourself~very IMPORTANT!
48 hours a week...girl, just live your life like Europeans...."work to live, don't live to work"....enjoy your life....

I think everyone at your age has done this. Your father is only being protective of you. You do need to keep it in check. It is easy to make a life long habit out of this kind of activity. It also can bring on addictions to alcohol and drugs. If not done in moderation, over time, it can be very unhealthy and affect your life in a lot of different ways.
I say enjoy your youth. You only get to once. Just be very careful and pay attention to how it affects your life. If it starts affecting your job performance and relationships, you may be taking it too far.
Your father was young once. He understands. he is just looking out for you and how this may affect you long term.
Typically, going out once a week is normal. Anymore than that can be dangerous. Just be careful.

Yes it's normal, because your young and the best thing to do is go out and stay active, so yes it is normal. when it comes time to settle down just remember that it's a good idea not to have children right away but your 21 so you got a long ways to go

I probably went out 2 nights a week when I was 21. It's normal. You are entering adulthood and gaining independence. As long as you're not drinking yourself silly when you go out, then there shouldn't be a problem. If you can afford it, go for it.

By the time I was 20 I was married. As long as you have enough money to live on and it isn't affecting your work I don't see a problem with it. Yes, you should enjoy your youth.

In my twenties I would club 1 - 2 x per week and hang at the bar 1 x per week. What your doing is normal. Enjoy yourself.

Man, you're working full time. You earn your right to go to clubs when you want to. You earn your money, so if your bills are paid up, you deserve to spend it.
I have to be at work at 7:30am but if I didn't, I'd be clubbing weeknights too (only Fri and Sat for me).
