I'd would rather drink alone then drink at a party with a bunch of people I don't know.

You're never alone.

By that I don't mean the spiritual "you're never alone" as in "there is always a friend with you in your heart" but the literal "you're never alone" as in "I'm close watching you".

Teeheehee... >:3

Oh yeah, OT:
I don't know why it should be 'wrong' to drink alone... There is just little reason to get drunk if you're alone (unless you are sad :( in which case I feel sorry for you)

Vodka makes boring nights sat watching crap telly alone more enjoyable.





...that sentence sounds far more emo and whiny than I intended it, I therefore prescribe vodka.

I prefer to drink alone. I prefer to drink hard liquor, and drink hard. No ill comes from it, because I know to do it sparingly; perhaps once every 6 months I'll get the urge.

So long as anyone can remember to moderate the drinking, it's fine.

I would think that the "don't drink alone" admonition comes from the fact that when you drink enough to puke/black out, you're usually not in a state to be taking care of yourself.

I mostly just drink alone to be honest. But all I usually drink is a nice glass of wine to help me sleep. xD Not a big alcohol drinker.

My 500 euro bottle of scotch I will only drink alone, one glass at a time, because if I drank that with friends, well it would be gone in one evening. So occasionally I will sit down light a smoke and drink 2 fingers of that stuff alone and of course a beer once in a while.

I love to drink alone, especially at bars. With regards to getting really drunk, which I sometimes do, I never really talk to other people at the bar unless spoken to, and even then I try to keep conversations short. They might be able to tell I'm drunk if I DO something stupid, like walk into a wall or drop some change and laugh heartily.

Mostly I just love observing people, in a melancholy sort of way. I'm not really much of an extrovert and am kind of socially retarded but the world don't seem so bad when your perception is soaked in awesome. And, walking/biking home at night while drunk and listening to music is one of the best experiences ever.

My gf has a problem with it though, as she's pretty much the complete opposite me, quite the social butterfly, optimistic and loves to party, etc. She thinks it's quite lonerish to drink on one's own, and thinks it's unhealthy and even vain. Sometimes I wonder why she even likes me, but I guess I can't really complain.

True, very true, but there's nothing wrong with doing it by yourself from time to time.

Hell no. Sure it's fun to drink with your buddies, but nothing should stop you from having a nice cold one while watching a film, or playing a game.

Getting drunk on your own. Now that's a different matter.

I don't like drinking alone all that much, but this Modern Drunkard article is interesting. And of course there's nothing wrong with having a few beers while entertaining yourself.
