I love my friends and I don't want to lose them. How do I hang out with my friends, stay sober, and have a good time?
If you feel uncomfortable going - don't. Forget obligation. Express your regrets to your friend, send them a card, BD present or whatever, but don't go. If you don't want to slip, stay out of slippery places
