I thought so too after 40 years of sometimes being the “life of the party” after a few drinks and honestly I love good bourbon and red wine. But, I love my life with those friends and family and decided that was more important than a tumbler or wine glass in my hand. I have replaced that at home with a good non alcoholic IPA by Sam Adams brewery. I enjoy one or two before dinner while by wife enjoys her Merlot. It works. Try it and live your best life. God Bless.

If you have to drink to make their company not boring, maybe find some friends that are not boring and do not drink.
