Drinking on your own?

willmunny1990

I love a pint out with the lads!

But i also like my own company at times, how do you feel about drinking on your own..either in a pub or at home?

I sometimes drink at home alone, watch a couple of films or DVDs and i love it, but some friends think it is weird or sad!

Personally i couldn't give a fcuk what they think, it is just most think it is weird or wrong in some sort of way.

How do you feel?

What about drinking in the dark with nothing but absolute quiet, there could be a teddy there for comfort but not too big that you would feel threatened by him. You used to have a cat but he left and took her with him.
Is this normal?

Jaysus cloptrop, put down the beer and go to bed luv

I was out drinking in a friends house over the christmas and fell asleep at about 5 am , this is completely normal being a friend ive known maybe 15 years now, I woke up to find i had one eyebrow,
He was holding a grudge since we were 15 and i shaved his,
What kind of psycho holds a grudge that long. Anyhu its nearly all grown back .
This would never have happened if I had of just stayed in.

Dont be goin the pub on your own payin 5 times the price for the drink because there are lounge girls there, just get a bag of excelsior for about 80p a can out of lidl and sit on a bench in your local shopping centre, much more fun.

I often play a bit of FIFA on Xbox live with a bottle of wine and a box of fags. I love Tuesdays.

Had 3 pints the other evening in a local country bar. Only the owner there with me, grand too.

The Irish Pub culture has as much to do with the fact that some Irish think drinking home alone is odd when most European countrys like France and Italy (with their wines ) and Germany Hollond (with their beers ) have always had a drinking at home culture ,same in America and Australia so no reason why it should be any different in Ireland . I've always enjoyed a few beers or bottles of wine at home at the weekend .

Do you often drink alone? And if so, how much would you drink? I would drink alone the odd time, maybe once every two weeks just while watching television or on the internet. Never more than a bottle of wine.

If it is more than when with company, you have a problem.

It can range from 2-3 cans to bottle of whiskey or brandy.

Depends on how strong the goo for drink is

Hah! No, it isn't more than with company! But it isn't like I would be getting pissed, just a few glasses of wine to relax.

I'm a business man, sometimes in my local, I share a drink with the waitress who like to practice politics.

But its better than drinking alone.

Na nee na, na ne na, nee nee naa, de da.:pac:

Merged with a recent similar topic.

Me, I very rarely drink alcohol alone as to me it's a social thing, it's weird for me to drink and there is no-one there to chat with.
