see, I think st is reading too much into this. that letter never says that outright - tRuMaN Feb 16, 08:33 6
- "He's fine with me going out and drinking with friends, but will refuse to come along." His refuses to go out at all, sounds like. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 08:39
- and really, she's focused on the wrong thing. she actually wants him to drink, not just to come out and watch her drink. -- nm - TFox Feb 16, 08:35 4
  - I think this is it. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 08:38
  - *ding* and ftr truman - I took the part where she said he doesn't go out and sits on the couch as him not wanting to go out and be social. - Diva Feb 16, 08:37 1
    - I'd like to know what he does do with his friends. Do they just don't invite him when they go out drinking, but do other stuff? -- nm - Roger More Feb 16, 08:39
  - yup. she seems to think that their relationship is misisng him drinking. - tRuMaN Feb 16, 08:35
but that may be (and total speculation here) that he's avoided it so thoroughly since college that he doesn't know how different it is. - TFox Feb 16, 08:32 5
- would never work. never. - tRuMaN Feb 16, 08:35 4
  - how come? that seems odd to me. -- nm - TFox Feb 16, 08:36 3
    - it just doesnt work. - tRuMaN Feb 16, 08:37
    - "I'm bored with all these drunk people" "Why do you want to leave so soon? I'm still having fun!" *argument* -- nm - Roger More Feb 16, 08:37 1
      - *nods* -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 16, 08:37
