I remember when it killed me to stay in on a Sat nite

[madmick]

Now I'm happy just to hang out with my girl and just chill on the couch with a good movie, Guess I'm getting old

I'm in my 40's and have done it all. Clubs, bars, bouncing, girls, fights, etc. Its like I was always chasing something. I still enjoy a night out once and awhile but nothing like hanging out with my girl and just kicking back with a nice bottle of vino, some good food, a movie, and then a little late night action...lol Its pretty cool cause my fiancee is 20 years younger then me but really is'nt into the club seen. Cooked me a nce dinner that works with my diet as well. The wine is a little cheat but we only drink one nite a week.

yea i just turned 24 but as far as partying goes im prob closer to my 40's as well considering what i did from ages 17-21! Ironic that i kinda calmed down more when i turned the legal drinking age. Eventually you kinda get to a point where when you look back you wanna see you did something constructive, not just a mess of nights you can barely remember anyway!

 

[The Striated One]

I agree man, "Tryin to chase something"

Ironically, just the thought of going out to a smokey, loud place to basically meet a bunch of "drunk immature sluts" these days just doesnt do it for me anymore.............the actual thought of it kinda disgusts me actually.

Granted I'm newly single so I definately get the itch to surround myself around women whenever possible, but I like to do it a little different these days.

An intellectual conversation over dinner with a (one) beautiful woman just sounds like heaven to me right about now.

Oh well, at least we have UFC 96 to watch tonight

I still go out for drinks, but to make up for it i never take orals and load up on cranberry extract and milk thistle year round. But let me tell you something, there is no better feeling than waking up on saturday morning and sunday morning not hungover.

 

[shawnkarbabacz]

cranberry extract and milk thistle? Ive read about benefits of milk thistle but what do those to do to help counteract alcohol?

And i agree, even though i would hardly ever get standard 'hangovers', i was still pretty much useless the next day. Plus hanging around on the couch recovery from drinking and being up till 5 am leads to poor eating as well, at least for me

It has nothing to do with hangovers for me. I'm just sick of the club seen. For me it was all about the ladies, and I'm so done searching. Also, as a NYer living in Georgia, I do get a few fucktards that get drunk and start up with the "how much do u bench" questions. no one really fucks with me, but I really dont need that shit anymore. i've learned that when it comes to bar fights, you loose in the end no matter what. Some guy fucks with you or your old lady, u loose your temper and smack em in the head, u spend the night in jail, and then lots of legal BS that follows. Been there done that (9 months once). I'm happy hangin out at at home like were doin tonight, or maybe a good resturant, comedy club or somewhere else where non asshole red necks hang out. This is not a a flame on the south, there are some very cool people here that we hang with.
It wouldnt matter where I lived, I just like spending quality time with my lady. Its somethin I wished I discovered a long time ago. I wasted a lot of time and money when i was younger, on nothing but trouble. There comes a time in life when you look back and wonder what the fuck was I thinking. I want to look back 20 years from now and feel good about myself. We all need to get the partying bug out of our systems, thats for sure. I dont regret haw I lived back in the day. i just wish I woud have woke up a little sooner. OK rant over

Amen to that! So much better waking up early and getting stuff done then waking up at noon slugish with a headache///glad those days are gone

 

[coolkat]

Yeah Mad Mick. Funny how I was thinking the same thing recently.
I'm a young 50 and been tired of all that for a while

Yet, some family and some women at work say. " How are you going to meet someone if you don't go out?" They don't get it. I just say, "The kind of woman I'd be interested in MOST LIKELY is not in a club, bar, ect.,"

Hate the smoke, the stupid subwoofer, and the general bullshit element.

Glad to here similar attitudes.

 

[njpooldude]

i agree and not a big fan of the club scene.. it was cool when i was single and a drug addict but been with my lady for almost 2 years now and its kinda just a mind fuck to go to a club without her... im sure she will wanna go with her girls once summer is here, and im cool with it.. she is young ( just turned 21) so of course i gotta let her get it out of her system.

Ill be 26 in april and im more of the local pub, or dive kinda guy.. a few corona lights with lime and a couple games of pool and im a happy camper. i used to not go out at all once i got "clean" but thankfully i can have a couple beers here and there and not wanna go and get high like i used to.

YES

I feel the same way these days, ironically I used to LOVE the bars and the big parties and all the madness that went with it. now I can't stand it. my mother used to tell me that I would never find a nice girl at the bars, and i would say" I know mom but who said I was looking for a nice girl anyway " But after years of that chaos, now I am much happier staying in and being mellow or just hangin at a Borders or taking my daughter to the movies. And I have a steady girl that is very understanding of all that.

It's very ironic that I should get up and see this thread. Being recently single I felt that I owed it to myself to go out, so I went somewhere local, got a beer and within minutes a group at the end of the bar started yelling stuff at me, nothing bad but a lot of, 'Hey, why don't ya say something, why don't ya smile', to me it was the equivalent of,'Hey, why don't ya be an obnoxious drunk like us', they meant no harm but it was enough for me to call it a night,... at 8:30.
To you guys that have a good girl and no reason to be out , appreciate what you have, I wish I had it.

 

[fat kid]

I wish my wife felt the way we do. She is 36 and thinks she has been 21 for 15 years.

saddest thing.......................

Man the saddest thing is to think of those 40-50 year olds out there tryin to kick it with the kids. Even if you can find some shady hideaway hole in the wall. What will you find there? Escape? excitement? Fake people telling lies... REAL Life is happening all around...get it (real people telling the truth)
...and you just dont want to chase the fakes anymore.

I used to think like a tiger, or something that has to catch what it eats.
10 charges at prey to get 3-4 dinners.
Numbers game....see a volume crowd and work through it.
Somebody is bound to stick.

Eaaaat em up and move on..
when I finally caught something I liked the taste of...well....
Then you want to slow down, take your time, and eat her slowly
...hell I may never hunt again.
How about THAT???

Tamed the tiger...

I've been out to bars twice in the last 8 years, and it was for bachelor parties.

AND ANOTHER THING

the last time I went to a bar this guy kept lookin at me so I finally said " What" ? and he just started in about the muscles and how he could never look like me and blah,blah,blah, so I said well that's cuz you sit here and drink instead of going to the gym and lifting. He wasn't trying to start shit I don't think ,but I still don't like the looks sometimes.
