[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 564773, member: 11791"] There's better ways to learn social skills than alcohol. More important to work through the issues, than to cover them up. This, from a person who still struggles with group functions. But it does get better. You don't have to be witty. You don't have to ask intellegent questions. Others LOVE to talk. Trust me on that. Pay direct personal attention to the person speaking, nod knowingly, and have a cheat-list in your brain of approriate statements. My favorite: Do tell us more. (especially if the speaker is full of those stories we all love to listen to). What happened next? Who else was there? How many years before you told your parents? Questions come later... as you learn the flow. But you won't learn the flow if you hide behind alcohol. [/QUOTE]
