teraiin, sorry your guests were ill behaved. What was the event? Simple house party? Special event? May I ask?
Simple house party. It's two couples from church we've always been casual friends but the past year or so all of us have been trying to make an effort to socialize more lol

It's clearly working well
I have been taking a practical lesson in "presuming positive intentions" for the past few months, so I hope this comment comes across that way.
I have found myself in the situation of "trying to make an effort to socialize more" with a particular person or couple quite awkward at first. For me, sometimes it feels contrived at first. In the end, sometimes we decide that being kind acquaintances is all we are meant for, and other times it turns into a "real" friendship. It sounds like you had a rough go of it, but try no to judge this "first" encounter too harshly.
Secretly, TBH, sounds like they were inconsiderate house guests, either way.

I think you're probably right. We have had each of the couples here separately in the past and been to their houses separately but this was the first time all of us have been alone. As you said there's some awkwardness.
It may be just nerves on their part or maybe they weren't interested in some of the stuff and didn't want to say anything.
Thanks for the support though. It helps to know I'm not alone with the awkwardness lol
So...I started reading this thread an hour and a half ago because I was drinking and wanted to participate in a drinking thread. And also I haven't been on this site in like a week because I started a new job on Monday and it has been insane. Hence the heavy Friday night drinking. Oh but anyway...it took me this long to finish reading all the comments and by now most everyone is in bed.
So my question is--who is still up? Who has a drink in their hand? And most importantly, who's drunk??

I'm still up. I just put my last drink in the recycle bin because I have reached my limit of drunk enough. Be ready for typos and mistakes. Maybe even buffoonery.
