woah, only 2 things can happen when going to parties and who comes with;
either a good friend whos cool, (i wont say alpha) but non-needy, someone who can go around the party making friends but wont ditch you but wont get in your space.
or (usually the best)
by yourself, that way, you wont be tempted to stay with your normal friends and have to go around, just make friends with everyone early on, then move onto getting a girl (s?)
yeah but trust me nearly every party or night out ive gone out to, with someone who isnt sociable and really cool.
brings you down man, they follow, join in conversations, try to break off your conversations so its just you 2 talking.
ITS ANNOYING, I URGE YOU DO NOT SUFFER WHAT I HAVE SUFFERED!!!!
its so bad, a girl will be interested in you, he'll come along (fair enough) but he just wont be sociable he'll try to couple you off with him.
bearing in mind, these people arent usually true friends but i have 2 types of friends; those i party with and those i have quieter, talk with (from my chump days before i wanted to be more extrovert).
im saying all this so you don't fuck up man, i dont wish it upon anyone to have a leecher. go alone.
unless you can find a cool guy who wont fuck you over.
peace and love guys
