This^^^^keep doing this^^^ and you'll be just fine, because you already know how to handle this situation! Well done, by the way. You ended your story with your own advice to yourself.
Intoxicated people can be super annoying and cruel. Ending the conversation when he stepped out of line was the right thing to do. Spending time with him only when he is sober is a good boundary. Whether or not you talk to him again is your choice, but it seems to me you are already living what you describe above.
And for what it is worth - there is nothing wrong with the way you live your own life, as long as you are pleased and happy with it. Just remember, what other people think of you is none of your business.
