Why am I so boring?

It's DP's birthday so we've been round a few pubs with friends since about 12 noon. I don't drink but enjoy being out and about. But now I'm tired, want my dinner and PJs and have had enough of talking.

I've come home and they're all out to a club. It's always this way, I just fizzle out and can't understand how they can be so up for it and energetic. I feel like a bit of a sad sack.

Just hope DP doesn't wake me up when he crawls in at God knows what time..

I'm with you. I'd be ready for PJS, tv and bed now too. xx

I’m the same OP, by 9pm I’m always ready for my pyjamas. There is no shame in it, different strokes for different folks.

I’m with you OP Grin

When I was younger I tore up the tiles, but after age, dc and disability I’m now more likely to be found main-lining hot chocolate and slippers rather than shots off a young mans stomach.

I now class 8pm as ‘late’ Blush

You're not boring, you're content with the simple things in life and that's a good thing x

I spend most social occasions longing for my pyjamas and kindle! You're not alone.

I'm actually quite happy being boring.

Ha glad I am not the only one! I am actually really looking forward to getting stuck into my book. Hot water bottle is almost ready.

I’m the same.

I’m quite an introvert so being with a big group of people for hours would completely zap my energy.

They are drinking so you will feel wonderful in the morning and they will not. Try banging on their doors at 8am for a nice bracing walk and breakfast out.

VimFuego101 · 24/11/2018 21:48

If you're happy in your own company, that's a good thing.

InspectorIkmen · 24/11/2018 21:50

You’re really not boring. Really. I hate clubs and clubbing and pub crawls etc - always have. Much happier at home with something good on telly or radio or a good book. That’s not boring - just different.

The energy required for this kind of marathon would zap anyone apart from the extroverts.

Let us introverts have a voice too..... heading for the bed having done the gig earlier is wonderful. Time to chill out.

No shame, I do it all the time.

WipsGlitter · 24/11/2018 22:18

God I'd have been home ages ago. Out from noon?!? No way!

MandalaYogaTapestry · 24/11/2018 22:28

I would be the same OP. Fortunately I am now old enough not to have a problem with myself about it.

TrickyKid · 24/11/2018 22:30

I'm the same. Happy to go out for a meal and a couple of drinks but ready to come home by 9.
