I myself have ended up in a life without many friends, out of which I'd call none a good friend. I only drink at home and since my wife is pretty anti-social we don't have people over .. much, pretty much at all. So I drink with her and it turns out she's bad company so the best drinking at the moment is when she's working weekend nights. Pretty pathetic but that's how it is.
If there's no alternative, drinking alone is just fine.
I got to say that it would be nice to have a pub I could go to, but there's none in this city...

Re: Drinking alone.
I love drinking alone. Play the music I want, drink as fast, or as slow as I want. However, drinking alone at bar is my favourite thing. For the first few hours, I make the odd comment to the bartender or person next to you. Then, when I'm good and ripped I start talking to anyone. Sometimes they don't wanna chat so I move on. I've had quite a few adventurous nights where I started drinking alone and ended up at an undegraduate kegger or hanging out with Caribbean gangs (weird night, scared me to death).

drinking with who ?
Re: Drinking alone.
i miss my old college pals they were fun to drink with. i've been drinking alone for about 4 years now so i don't even notice it's just daily routine.
Watch "The Money Masters" on youtube and read "The Creature From Jekyll Island" by G. Edward Griffin to unveil the true enemy.

Re: Drinking alone.
Some geezers always frightened me giving out the doctrine that drinking alone
is "dangerous" and "gets you into alcoholism"
it fucking is NOT
drinking alone gets you a fine look in to your own psyche - everybody that finished
a bottle of jack alone with his best record on knows what i am talking about
there is absolutely nothing bad about it
I also agree with the one that said in an answer before
that it is much better than drinking in unpleasant company
anyway- drinking alone
be it to get on the right temperature for the partyevening
be it just to sit there pondering what lousy son of the wicked you are
it is never wrong

At least you'se don't got the sugar!
The cabin sits shut-down, cold-frozen and empty, dead mice in the traps, waiting for me to drink alone there in the dark.

Re: Drinking alone.
Damn I love drinkin alone! Not to say that I don't love the pubs, the regs and the incredible amount of well respected friends who are equal drunks as I, but shit! I have just bought a house, I have all my music, a fully stocked bar and nothing beats that wonderful moment when all the music is right, you can pour whatever the F us want, light a cigar or what have you! I drank 6 pints of Guinness at the pub with a good friend, taxi 2 minutes home, crack a bottle of wine , Mahones, Tom Waits, Fairport Convention and now I am loving the Woodford Resrve!! I have been pissed for a week!

Re: Drinking alone.
Yup. I actually was off for 3 days coming off a 36 hour drunk (white wine not included, many bottles) One of the greatest things in life is a good pub,realt beers being alone with a book. It is great when one meets a fellow solo drinker. There is nothing awkward or unusual about meeting a fellow pisshead, simply a nod, a sip,the barmaid knows that we are all ok, .. sorry there, kinda lost my thought..abideArtie2002 wrote:Barney's Version wrote:Damn I love drinkin alone!

Re: Drinking alone.
I've noticed that when drinking in public I cannot click a little icon to make people shut up.
They often respond, "Hey! Stop poking me!" And then continue speaking.
A strong argument for drinking alone, mais non?
