Invited to a Party, but Don't really know anyone there.

Thats the thing though , if your throwing the party yourself or are friends with the person throwing it , its likely the music will be to your taste . Posh people have parties , poor people have parties , hipsters have parties etc Its something seen to be universally wholesome and enjoyable for everyone alike .

I suppose some people find it fun to get drunk (my self included) , although there is always the one who takes it too far and collapses etc most people can handle their drink , alcohol helps put everyone in a good mood and acts as a social bridge.

I do most of that stuff to but variety is the spice so dont see anything wrong with going to a party every now and then .

Good luck , hopefully when you get invited to one you will change your views.

I was more specifically talking about the parties where there is blaring music, which I, personally, find distasteful. Each to their own, I guess. Parties which I think I would actually enjoy are the ones where there is champagne, classy people and older-styled music, instead of cheap bear and the new style of music. But honestly, people can do what they want and I have no right to judge. Different people enjoy differnet things and I respect that.

And mate, music is subjective, so it genuinely is down to the listener as to what constitutes 'good'. Case in point: I like One Direction. I like the way they look, the way they sound... I've never met them, but I'm certain I'd like the way they smell!

I don't think I'd like how you smell. You sound like you'd smell miserable!

Its essentially the same thing except yours involves snobs who love throwing their money around , you've shown yourself to hold quite a superiority complex mate , your no better than anyone else just because you have more money , get that in your head.

My shampoo and other goods would disagree with you on that one. But on a more serious note, yes, people have preferences and different tastes, in regards to music. It just so happens that my taste is different to the average 17 year-old's taste, therefore, parties would be a boring place for me - with the loud and unmelodic music - But as I said in a previous post, each to their own. I respect your opinion.

Recently I went to a party were I dint know 95% of the others and at first i felt awkward but then I got chatting , it was interesting talking to new people Also the host knew that people that were at the party were from her different social groups so introduced everyone which helped. You most know someone , the host prehaps fairly well or you wouldnt have been invited !! talk to this person , though i did not know most of the people there i did have one of my good friends going aswell which helped. Or if you REALLY dont know anyone ask the host if you can bring someone with you

Hi!
Did you just walk up to groups people while they talk and join in or..?
Thanks!
