Don't have regrets though. I have seen them drive people crazy. Going out and meeting new people at social event or even parties does not mean that you have to sleep with 10,000 people or get wasted all the time. No one really gives a crap whether or not you are drinking. Att that age if someone wants you to have a whole bunch more than you want, they are just insecure.
Is it possible that saying that you don't want to do these things becuase you are uncomfortable around new people? I know I was. Then I drank a lot.
Now I am comfortable with my tendencies to be dorky and as soon as that happened, I started to become more comfortable around people in general.
