“The older I get, the less interested I am in doing something I don’t enjoy just because it’s what most people do. There are lots of good reasons not to drink, and most of us (sober or not) would probably like to diversify our social lives”
Photo: Westend61/Getty Images I haven’t really enjoyed drinking since I was 23, and even then it was purely utilitarian — drinking to get drunk, or at least tipsy. I have had maybe 12 perfect drinks in my life , but for the most part, I don’t care for the taste of alcohol. It’s fine, but I’m almost never like, “Delicious!” For me, alcohol is a means to an end.
But the older I get, the less interested I am in doing something I don’t enjoy just because it’s what most people do. There are lots of good reasons not to drink, and most of us would probably like to diversify our social lives. So I asked the internet for alternative friend-making plans, and collected their best ideas below.“One time a newish friend had two tickets to a dog show and asked me to go and it is one of my most cherished memories.
“Go to Taco Bell and then go to the animal shelter. Dogs love the smell of chalupa, and I love chalupa. Friend feels loved by the dogs and is happy and I am happy!” —Kathleen“I moved to a new city about a year ago, and I’ve been inviting multiple new friends over for a game night so it’s everyone meeting at once. Easier to connect with than at a bar, and you can drink or not drink. Also if there’s nothing to talk about, you can at least talk about the game.
