positivechange - I'm struggling with the same thing. I'm pretty new to sobriety so I haven't gone to any bar crawls or parties with friends since I quit drinking. I feel so left out and friendless. Yes, I've been 10x more productive lately, and I feel physically and mentally great. But it's like there is no one to share it with.
I'm seriously considering attending an AA meeting just to see if I can make sober friends to do things with, other than drinking. I kind of know how you're feeling...I assume you're still pretty young. I'm in my 20s and I know this is a very good thing I'm doing to choose to be sober. But at what cost?....I just know I will not give up on sobriety unless I at least try to give myself a chance to make new friends. It's pretty confusing.
