Partying every weekend isnt fun anymore.
I think I reached it....or im just hungover to . Either way im kinda sick of blowin so much cash on toronto nightlife and having mediocre nights. Most of my friends came to this realization by the age of 26, It took me until now to realize a) there's no such thing as a quality party girl b) alchol seems fun in the moment but sucks the next day c) my money is better spent on things more fulfilling and helpful d) I still love the hoes but I won't find a good girl at a club.
I also need to start focusing harder on my career, Im 28 i feel like i havent accomplished except respect in a ty neighborhood. My frame of mind is changing alot. The older ta's, at what point did you guys fizzle out of the nightlife scene or "grow up"? |

I wish it was at 28. I was 33 when I decided I'd had it but I'd also had close to a year of city nights out that scored between lack-luster and utter disaster. Not that it was all cake before then but that last year was completely ed. Of course, I also remember waking up with the hangover's belittling reminder and swearing there had to be a better life outside vodka only to turn around in not-a-day sooner to try and reclaim that elusive prize of winning pool-games, fights, and girls.
Edit: Oh my God. It's Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde. What does it mean? |

well dude Its hard because every friday night i get this itch. and if it doesnt get scratched i feel like somethings missing. i cant explain it. I hate it but i Love the booze women and expensive nights at the same time. but then you wake up sundays pukin in a toillete thinking is this all there is?? work all week party hard one day of the week recover on sundays?
the one thing i got really jazzed about before was doing sports. I could do nothing all weekend and just knowing i had a sunday monday and tuesday filled with games and practice, it really got me through my week. I loved it, but with that being taken away I realize how little i have outside of that. kinda sucks and is making me rethink my whole plan of attack |

I dunno about all that mate Im 50% with you on this one
A) its like saying quality girls don't go out to party.
B) drink tons of water before going to sleep , :)
C) True
D) I love the hoes too :gsmile:
My case I went nuts studying and trying to finish my career so I'm party thirsty atm , all because I missed out a lot due to the ing books .
I try to keep it fresh by going out to different bars and venues etc. The only time I get somehow fed up is when I over do it, like going out 4 times during the week. Then I think I got to do more outdoorsy stuff :p
edit: i just remembered soccer also used to keep me out of parties |

That's what I'm talking about. The itch. It's that anticipation amplified by pre-drink and testosterone, fostered by all the times you fantasized about the receptionist in legal, on the seventh floor, who, unlike you, returned home from the Blue Pearl Bar without puking her partially digested Ibuprofen out in a scene set to Johny Cash's "Sunday Morning Coming Down". It's a carefully cultivated itch that incubates in the milieu of frustration with that in the mail-room, too stoned to follow your simple FedEx instruction and his immediate supervisor who won't crack the whip like she should because he's the son of the friend of her boss. It's the hot chicks who turn their heads at your casual gaze at lunch-time and yeah, something's probably missing, but none of the gazillion micro-fantasies you have the sense and decency not to speak of will ever fill it in their horrid realization.

I took up jogging (I still try and find time for exercising but not the way I used to throw myself into it) for a while but nothing's grabbed my rocks like music and, as seriously as I thought I took music before I quit drinking, there was a world I hadn't even come close to touching, afterward. I'm not saying your problem is with booze although that seems to be a dominant variable in your dilemma. I'm also not thinking the cure is in music but my suggestion is that you should find something which grabs your rocks that you can throw yourself into. |

| Grew out of it at about 22, then grew into it again at 25. Unfortunately my friends didn't, so I'm repeatedly pissed at the boring activities they want to do instead of drinking and partying and drinking some more. :( :( :( |

I was about 25, when I finished my study, started working and met my wife (in a club). I loved to go out, but time is limited and you need to make choices.
But I also do have friends who still party every weekend. |
