Not sure what you mean by 'adults'. That is a very broad term heh.
But anyway, I am 29, live alone, have a job and pay my own bills so I guess you can call me one.
I think it varies a lot from person to person. Most of my friends don't go out every weekend night at all. People stay in with their SO's or they have friends over for dinner or a movie. Sometimes they just want to relax after a long week.
Currently I don't go out that often on a Friday, that night is usually a night I stay in and relax, but sometimes I'll go out to dinner and drinks with friends. On some Saturdays I go out dancing with friends. Maybe two weekends per month I go out I guess. Sometimes less. I go for whole months sometimes without going out at all on Friday and Saturday.
Staying in doesn't mean you're a loser. It's a choice. Staying in is really great when you enjoy your own company and know what you want to do with your time. If you want to go out more, then you should just find the right group of friends for that to happen more. I wouldn't worry about it at all.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
