Going out as a young man in a drinking culture.

    The thread title sums it up basically. I'm a 23 year old lad and don't drink. Have never drank before and don't intend to start. (Now its worth noting I don't have any problem with someone taking a drink)

    My problem is I find the drinking culture around social events to be quite difficult for someone like myself to enjoy. A few of the lads have invited me out tonight and I'm in two minds to go. I was out on the 23rd at the local 12 pubs night before Christmas and overall it wasn't a bad night but as it went on, it got less fun. The last pub we were in was jammed and then I barely stayed 20 mins in the nightclub as it was wedged as well and full of people drunk falling about the place.

    Now my friends group aren't that bad on the drink which us a positive.

    One reason that's pushing me to go out is that I'm single and wonder if I may miss out on meeting a lovely new woman but then I think back to all the times I went out and had zero luck women wise on nights out.

    Basically I don't find the nights to be overly enjoyable but I feel I'm missing out if I don't go.
    Any advice or thoughts?

    Mod Note
    Sorry OP but as this is now your seventh thread in 4 months I'm closing it and instead asking you to read our charter. When PI/RI becomes a crutch for day to day decisions whether related to relationships or not its time for the mods to step in.

    Please read back over some of your other threads and try to see what positive changes you can make based on the suggestions there and failing that then you need to consider its time to seek some professional help.

    Thread closed.
    Per the charter please wait a while before you start anymore threads here.
