Exactly!
You only get a two-day weekend and I was finding myself napping on Saturdays so I could stay out late them sleeping all day Sundays or worse yet suffering with a hangover all day. I was wasting perfectly good time off! It wasn't worth it anymore and I don't care how old you are - you can hit that point at any time or never!

I think it was like 27 for me! I just got tired of going out, wasting so much money and the hangovers were quicker to come and lasted a whole lot longer! Now Im 30 and I do like to go out still but not as often and I don't drink much anymore when I do! I figure if Im going to be tired the next day I might as well not be tired AND hungover!

I guess i must have been a late bloomer!!! I was close to 40 when I stopped partying - lol!!!

And now at 56, well I'm practically a shut in - I hate socializing, hate leaving the house - am practically an agoraphobic... What do you suppose could have changed me so much???

I'm not kidding here. Seriously, any answers would be welcome.

are u married now/kids? some people who get married/kids/pets etc feel already "settled" and that their lives are "complete" and dont find the need to go out and meet new people...

or maybe depression? sometimes when you do the same things over and over it gets old and then u feel like u dont wanna do anything anymore but maybe its a new hobby u need!!

I don't know about partying all night (been a long time since I've done that) but I knew I was getting old when I started falling asleep on the couch every night a 9:00.

paulapoo · 09-10-2007, 06:11 PM

I've always said I don't know why the bars don't start getting busy around 7:30 and then close by 11:00. There would be less hangovers, cause people would get more sleep. I never understood the whole, not going out until 10:30. I'm jammied up way before then!!! It started for me around 33. Hangovers were MUCH worse, and I can't just lay in bed all day!!

SweetPea53 · 09-10-2007, 06:23 PM

I think I finally realized it about 2 years ago when I quit smoking @ 52.....I'm normally in bed by 9:00 and up at 5:00 and after dealing with 450+ kiddos everyday I'm just too wiped out at night anymore. My friends just couldn't seem to understand why on a Friday night I wasn't rearing to go out partying....I am soooooo much more content with being home in a nice quiet house with my lil one playing with her then out in the bar scene with all the noise and smoke....

I know back when I was younger -- you didnt hit the bar until 11 and you didnt stop sometimes until 4 or 5. It went from Thurs - Sun. Thurs was always coin night-- who remembers those days???? Where a roll of nickels and you were set for the night!

Now, I would be be good with the 7:30 - 9:30 and after hours be 9:30-midnite, lol

Right now I'm only 15 but I have never had an urge to party- and I'm pretty sure I never will. I like to be in by dark, so my parents dont have to worry about a curfew or anything. And Abby goes everywhere with me so if I dont want to do something, she's my easy way out ("oh, I have to go home and feed Abby her supper!" or "no they dont like dogs guess I can't go!")

I dont even like to be in crowded places I prefer to be with a few friends.

So I have friends, a boyfriend, a beautiful yorkie, and parents who trust me. I think I'm doing just fine without any partying
