my parents have a way busier social calendar than I do. It's almost like when you're finished with work, the late hours, unusual shifts and occasional weekend call-outs, professional development and week-long 'team strategy' off-sites you actually have time to live life, have friends and enjoy their company in a relaxed environment - who knew!
- rantallion 4y agoBoth of you can be correct here. It's possible (and I would say likely) that you end up having a bunch of social activities and yet still not go to parties. I know as I've gotten older (still younger than OP but well on my way), my tastes have changed and mellowed. Gone are the days where me and my friends want to be in a noisy, booze-filled environment. Dining out, theatre trips, hiking, even an international holiday with friends to take part in a running event. Just no parties.

- ryandrake 4y agoMy dad raised hell after he divorced and was single again. I was only 6 so I don't remember most of it, but I remember in general the house was the spot for the community's late-30s people. The high water mark I remember was he knew the drummer in a fairly-famous 80s hair metal band and they agreed to jam in his basement. The whole town came over for that one. I don't remember which band it was but they were big enough that it was newsworthy.
