Do you go to many parties? Are you usually the "life of the party" or a "shy wallflower" or something in between?....Do you try to get around to talk to everyone or just sit on the sidelines and talk to a few people that you know the best?....I don't go to many parties. Most of the time I just hang-out with people I already know or people I seem to have something in common with and sit on the sidelines. I take everything "in" and enjoy watching all of the interaction around me. How about you? Thanks....

I don't try to get to know anyone. I'm very stand-offish, which tends to rub people the wrong way. People say their first impression of me is that I was mean or had an attitude problem. I'll socialize with the folks I came with or the folks at the party, I know. That's it. If folks try to get to know me, I'm open to that, and will socialize (but I tend to keep it light). However, I definitely am not the type that will go around and try to talk to everyone.

I'm in between, usually. The more people I know, the more sociable I am and more willing to extend myself to meet new people - the fewer I know the less so, at least until I get to know a few. We go to a fair number of parties each year, so by now I've gotten to know most of the regulars and know whose company I enjoy most. I will never be the life of the party.

If I'm sober I'm a quiet wallflower, and this goes on through most phases of drunkenness, untill I''ve almost got alcohol pouring out of my ears then I just explode and people best watch out :P
That said I really don't drink very often so usually I'm the quiet guy...
And when I'm the quiet guy I usually try to be social, but it usually just ends up in conversations running dry and another boring night has passed. these nights are a waste of time. Sidelines suck. This is why I'm usually found in the nicely empty gym on a friday night.

Its been awhile, but I used to walk in and look around to see who all is here, /see if I recognized anyone. I used to go the the bonfires too early, but I liked to watch the others come rollin` in. I offered to help in whatever way I could to help set things up, etc.
Most of the time, I would meet up with my friends, and we would stay together, and mingle.

I'm usually just looking for the beer and someone to dance with, lol. Sometimes, I don't drink and I just play the wallflower observing to find someone to dance with that also isn't drinking or to enjoy some music. Other times, I like to get crazy at a party and do something fun with friends in the back or something, lol.

I don't really go to parties if I don't know a bunch of people.

If I'm alone, I'm a wallflower or a step above it. With a few friends I become rather social. With enough alcohol in me I get bold enough to ask almost any woman out. Alcohol's a pretty sweet drug honestly.
