Do you hate parties?

I don't hate parties, but I'm not as keen on them as I once was. House parties are generally boring (maybe it's me?) but going out to clubs are a bit different and I don't mind that every once in a while.

I grew up in a family of partiers.
There was a party every night-- all summer at my grandparent's house; full of drunk people, people on various drugs, people fighting, people making messes and being noisy and playing music.
Alot of musicians in my extended family-- alot of loud music and ALOT of addictive personalities.

I've had my fill of parties. Never was interested in them to begin with.
Have never been drunk; although alcohol was always readily available-- haven't bothered with drugs-- don't dance-- don't like being around people who have no idea what they're doing or what they're saying... so I keep away.
In college, I went to a few parties out of the many that I could have gone to and never enjoyed myself.

I do like dinner parties and tea parties, though.
Small parties that revolve around different foods and conversation rather than blown eardrums and hangovers.... plus; they're much easier to clean up afterwards. (and I am always the one who ends up cleaning.)

I have been this way too many times to count between the ages of 19 and 24, and I look back and I have to shake my head at how stupid I was. I then look at other people acting like tools when hammered and I realise I was the same. Alcohol is certainly playing a much tinier role in my life now.

Can't say I'm a fan of parties. I think the last one I went to was my parent's anniversary and I didn't have much choice in that one, as we all lived in the same house. I just don't have the energy for them.

sorry, but i think your family sounds like alot of fun to hang out with

(although i'm sure it's probably very different from the inside)

the quiet dinner parties with thoughtful conversation are great, too

i tend to live a little between both those worlds

I don't like or hate parties now that I think about it. It all depends on the people there. If with friends, I probably would like them if the music wasn't too loud. But most parties I have to attend are merely because social protocol dictates I should.

Birthdays and bigger holidays (Christmas/New Years) for example are unbearable because I don't really like any of my family members.

I hate them.. If my family ever had one I would just stay away from it.. But one hosted by strangers.. I would be far to anxious and VERY uncomfortable.. So no, I do not like parties.

I really enjoy parties but its the big build up of actually getting myself to go to one. Its hard, I get really anxious beforehand and most of the time it gets the best of me and I just don't go but when I actually do get the courage to go, I usually don't regret it. I don't talk much at parties but the ones I usually go to will have some sort of jam going on which is where I usually am. I don't need words to communicate with them, just an instrument
