I socialize just fine.
It's just not with folks in pubs or bar rooms.
I don't think I could ever call anybody that I spent afternoon after afternoon drinking with a friend.More like associates.
And I can tell you that like bar flies,they begin to die off as the years go by.
Most from alcohol related issues. So do I miss socializing in bars,hell no.
I'm 33 days sober and have in the past been 14 months. During that 14 months away I was shocked to find out who and how many ole associates in the drinking world had checked out.
It's also sad to walk my dog by this establishment and see folks waiting at 11:00 am on Sat-Sun morning for the place to open.
