i think going to bars and the whole social thing needs a major overhaul for you. at least for a few months. what's going to happen when the holidays hit you?
What's ironic is I drank much less going to the bar than I do at home. I had two beers the entire night. But I honestly do not go to the bar very much. I used to 3-4 times a week 3 years ago, but I've probably been to a bar maybe 4 times in the past 2 years. My problem is being alone, which is weird because it's the complete opposite of how I used to be. Couple years ago I would be fine being alone, but drank like a mad man when I was with friends. Now I drink alone and lock it up when I'm around friends. Mostly I think it's because of my gf. She doesn't drink and she doesn't like me drinking a lot going out, so when I'm with her I rarely drink very much. I'll get 2-3 beers at a restaurant if we have dinner, and that's about it.
