Sadly, you went to a crappy party. They exist and happen more often than you think. This is a party I would not enjoy too.

If you would have asked me a few years ago, I would have told you that "this is the way things are". But now, meh, this is not even close to a good party.

First, lets talk alcohol. I was born and raised in an arabic town in Israel. No alcohol for me. Then I moved to Germany for studies. Too much alcohol for me. For the first 3-4 years thats all I did. Get drunk, party hard and sometimes wake up in a puddle of vomit. I am not proud of that, but it was a lesson I needed to learn.

I guess everything changed when I moved to London for half a year. Where alcohol is not as cheap as in Germany and did cost loads of money to get drunk. So, I learned to party sober, which is cool, if the party is the right now. Later I tried MDMA and Weed which are MUCH better alternatives to alcohol, but you cannot actually compare them to each other, but that is another story.

I am not anti-social, on the contrary. I am loud and like talking to everyone. On MDMA I turn into a social beast :D But, I can relate a little bit to how you feel on parties. It was the same when I was in high school. Even though the parties in the arabic world are very different, I was the social outkast.

I am not telling you to change the way you are, specially if you are feeling comfortable with how things are. But don't give up on parties. There are different ones and you will find your niche.

If you are anywhere close to germany, come for a visit, we will have some shisha and tee and listen to some music with a bunch of friends. Because, this is also a party :)
