how many people..

I'll admit I don't really get it, and I probably never will.
My brother's only reason was "because its fun" and I really just don't get why making a potential fool out of yourself is worth it.

The curse of being straight-edged, I guess?
I don't know.
We'll see after the first time I drink (my brother nearly died when I told him I don't drink)
 


I'm really shy and nervous in big crowds but if I get hyper it all goes away

I dunno about this mindset... not to pick on you or anything man because I don't know you or anything, and it would be just your wording that I'm taking issue with, but the... artificial "high"... like, you say you're shy and you've gotta get hyper to interact with crowds. I realize that it's a coping mechanism... lots of people use coping mechanisms to overcome their fear of crowds or social interaction with large, largely unaccepting groups. Some folks drink to overcome the fear and other take a drug to get themselves into a state where they can deal with the crowd. I'm afraid that hyping yourself up on sugar is sort of the same thing. I'm not saying that this could lead to drugs or alcohol; rather, I'm saying that getting yourself into a state using some outside ingredient just isn't healthy and will probably harm you in some way in the long run.

So I'd actually just recommend not using sugar or anything, and just start going to smaller get-togethers. Get comfortable with small grounds of unfamiliar people and then slowly move up. Soon you'll be able to party with the best of them, unhindered anything: no sugar, no alcohol, no drugs.

To be honest, this social interaction skill is kind of lost in modern society. So many of us just take drugs or get drunk in crowds; the "party" in "party" has sort of been lost. There's always been alcohol at parties because alcoholic beverages are nice. The trouble with people today is that they don't know how to drink alcohol. Too many of us drink to get drunk, and I don't know why. But this last paragraph is just a bit of a tangent I'm going off on, so never mind haha. :)
 
i hate that people think partying is all about drinking and doing drugs and having sex. no, it's not. it's about hanging out, having fun, dancing with your friends, and letting all your inhibitions go. you don't have to drink alcohol (although lord knows i certainly have) or do drugs or have sex to have fun at a party. jmo

lol...I love how everyone knows what a guido is now and the world can make fun of them together...lol
 
I have never been t any parties. From what I hear, but I can't say is true or not, is drugs, alcahol, and sex are very prominent at most parties. I know not all parties are like this, but they have a reputation to be. In this sence, no, I'm not interested.
I also cannot dance and listen to practically no popular music, so I don't think I'd enjoy parties too much.
I come from a very conservative family, as well. So no, I don't think I'd like parties.

im a little confused.
if you're 'straight-edge', why is there going to be a first time you drink??
i thought the whole point of being 'straight-edge' is that you DON'T drink.

I've never had the opportunity to drink, is what I'm saying, short of whatever's in the house.
I'm not straight edge because I have some diehard campaign against underage drinking or whatever, just because I'm antisocial and haven't been around it at all.
I know its hypocritical, and trust me, I could care less if anyone else does it, I just don't see the point.

I did feel like a loser when out of 13 teenagers on the boat I lived on last summer, I was the only one who had never drank or smoked weed. But.. c'est la vie.
 
most clubs in Orlando are 18 to get into :) you just get a different colored wristband. + people sell the wristband to buy drinks once inside. + if your a girl, find your self a boy to buy you drinks if you like. Usually I just like to dance with my friends though :goodvibes

I like to party. :cool2:
