Adults and Alcohol DO NOT mix!

Cinco de Mayo... Why is it at every party we attend the drunks always become dramatic, the loving become affectionate, and the single become emotional?

I dislike drinking at parties. I am beyond the norm and dislike the feeling of alcohol or being drunk. I like being in control, and I do not want to be part of the dramatic.

Perhaps the ONLY sober person at the party I listen to the drama. First the dramatic couple argues, then the newest breakup turns bad, then the newest relationship is over and a secret relationship has been revealed, a boyfriend cheats on his girlfriend, a sister cheats on a brother, and another heart is broken... all in one night.

One friend asks if we ever have drama... sure we do, but there is a place and a time for everything and a party with drunks is not the place nor the time.

I was tired of my boyfriend being swept away to resolve a spat or dispute of another couple. I knew it was going to be intense, but dramatic is not what I had in mind. Adults more immature than teenagers. I felt as if I was at a high school party, but even then I did not act as stupid or careless. They wonder why I do not want to drink or hang out with the drunks.
