How to Leave a Party Without Saying Goodbye
A few weeks ago, I attended a pub crawl for one our mate's birthday.
For a non-alcoholic, the occasion was quite boring. Half the time you're spent waiting.
We were at one venue. 10.30pm.
Most of the guys gathered around the pool table taking turns playing.
There were a lot people. I didn't want to say goodbye to each and every one of them.
I expressed this to one of my good friends about it.
He said,
"Doing an Irish goodbye."
Leaving without saying goodbye, I look up on Google.
You can interpret it as rude.
But, I think of an excerpt from The Almanack of Naval Ravikant,
"I hate wasting time. I’m very famous for being rude at parties, events, dinners, where the moment I figure out it’s a waste of my time, I leave immediately." - Page 189
I'm self-aware.
Leaving early can show you disapproval of the social activities.
I realise now that hitting the clubs aren't for me.
I'd rather be at home working on a project or watching YouTube.
Never again.
