…Of going out every possible chance to get drunk. Not just drunk, but wasted. Only to talk to equally wasted people about stupid things and be involved in stupid drama. Why do people who complain about these dramatic situations, put themselves in it every week (if not more)? I just don’t understand how this is a form of entertainment to some.

I can understand going out occasionally to have some drinks with friends. I’m talking about the sloppy drunk people who act ridiculous. And dramatic.

I tried going out and doing the bar scene and I hated it. I liked to hang out with my friends, but I always felt extremely out of place and uncomfortable when I did it - even when I was among people I was comfortable with. To me, it just didn’t make sense. Part of me thought I was in serious trouble because it seemed everyone my age was into that, so it was going to be very difficult to find a guy who wasn’t into it. I always had Charles in the back of my mind. At the time, we weren’t together and I was trying to move on from liking him, but it seemed everything I did to try to keep my mind off of him just made me think of him more.

I’m really glad that I found someone who feels the same way about it as I do.

Another thing I don’t understand is why people hang around with other people that they don’t actually like? I mean, purposely. Whether its someone who is mean to you or just someone you don’t care for in general. If its a situation you can’t avoid, I get it. But if its something you continually put yourself in - what’s the point? There are plenty of other people out there who won’t treat you like that or who don’t drive you crazy.

Is there anyone that can put this reasoning mentioned above into some sort of perspective for me?
