Parties are a great place to meet
people, make new friends, forge new social connections and get the
occasional sloppy make-out. They're a time
when everyone is open to meeting new
people, and where introducing yourself is not only allowed but
welcomed.
But for some people, parties are a special form
of hell, especially if you don't know many
people who are already there. Like
bars, they’re full of people you don’t know but who all seem to
know everybody else, and everyone seems to know how to navigate the
unspoken rules like they were born to it. And unlike bars, there’s
often a feeling of being obligated to go - even when you
really don’t want to.
Knowing how to navigate a party
where you don’t know many people is an invaluable skill... but
first you have to not lose your mind in the process. This week, the
Doc leads you some of the rules for navigating a party full of
strangers with confidence, and have an amazing time in the
process.
