Okay, last night I was invited out mby my mate for her 22nd. I was tempted to go, however I had work the following day. And I would have had to travel home alone as they planned to stay out till gone 1am, no thank you. If my partner has gone and I wasnt working, then yes I would have gone. But he also went out with his mates and came crawling in around 1 and was in eariler then me. But he had only gone round to afew locals in his area and was with a group of lads. Pretty much safe. And he was invited out tonight, but decided to spend time with me.

Now, Im 24 and I feel so old when it comes to going out. I barely do anymore. I guess its now mainly cash and safety of getting home. I never worried about these things when I was younger. Perhaps I was more reckless, I dont know. But the thought of getting home on a night out, maybe alone, terrifies me. A woman of my age was attacked right outside my house afew months ago at 1am and my gran went to her rescue. Now that shook me up alot.

I do get paranoid if my fella goes out cause as you lot know he can be a flirt and gets on well with other women. So my paranoa went into OTT mood last night. I slept badly because of it. Im worried Im missing out on the fun and gossip because Im not going out. I think Im an old woman before my time.


Anyone else here got that feeling? Or do you go out regular?
 
Well I'm only 20 and I feel like I don't get out enough. When I was younger I always wanted to go out and be anywhere but home, however my parents rarely let me out of the house.

Now that I've been living out of home for a year and a half with my partner I find that I have no need to leave the house because everything I need is already right here at home. Gorgeous boyfriend, DVD's, food etc.

I just don't see the need to go out as often as I used to when I have the comfort of my own home always there.

It comes down to money a lot too. Before when I had a $50 board fee every week living with my parents, allowed me to be rather careless with my money.

Nowadays I try to save as much as possible. If I want to drink with mates, I will invite them over or go to their house and buy a bottle of alcohol from the liquor store. Stuff going to the pub and wasting your money there.

I do go out with Steve though. We just went out to the coast last weekend to play at time zone, but we have to be really motivated to go out it seems.

I'm not so afraid of being on my own, or coming home alone. Maybe one day that fear will kick in, seeing as the money fear has already. XD
 
I think it's a little natural to stay home when your out on your own. You got money to worry about, getting home, time, work, yada yada yada. I'm 18 and don't like being home at night. It's much funner to be out with some friends. But i think it also has to do with the fact that you can do what you want now that you have your own place. Being able to get drunk on the couch and not worry "oh shit dads home" is nice i would imagine.

I remember when my parents went out of town for 4 days, i woke up on Friday morning. And smoked outta my buddies piece, whilst he slept. All the while sitting on the couch. Was done with that bowl, sat it down next to me, and played Fable 2. After an hr or so, loaded another bowl and repeat. I'm not bragging about anything here, just giving an example of what i mean.

I'm sure if i was out on my own with a roommate or gf I'd stay home more often also. So no, I don't think your "old'. Just doing what most people might do around that age.
