Or maybe it’s because my drinking buddies got older and I saw the toll it takes on people
It’s like the day you realize how much better life is when you get a good nights sleep and then can never go back
- contrarian1234 3y agoSee to me the whole idea of "drinking buddies" always felt a bit excessive. With close friends I don't particularly need alcohol to let loose. I don't worry about how I come off or feel judged. I can be crass or obnoxious when the mood takes me. Their opinions of me have already been cemented over the years. Sure sometimes you can get together and get trashed and turn it up a notch - but it's never necessary To me all the benefits i illustrated are in the realm of meeting new people and making new connections - or trying to get with people from the acquaintance stage to the friend stage I suppose
