Senior And Never Been To A High School Party

I've never been to a highschool party?

well, I'm going to be a sophmore and I've never been to one. they seem like fun. :\
from what everyone says. but I don't want to get drunk or anything..

and I'm not even aloud to go to them cause usually they're at night and I'm not willing to sneak out.

High school senior and never been invited to a party?

I'm a high school senior as well. You may not have been invited to parties due to being a wallflower. If you never really talk Mich in school or don't have many friends. People Mau not notice you or even think you would take interest in a party. But honestly you dont always have to be invited. Most party hosts invite some people and tell them to bring friends. No one wants a dead, empty party.

Depends on your definition of fun. I love to dance and let loose, So I love that. I love it when the beat drops and the bass is loud. Omg. But lots of parties involve weed, Molly, alcohol, and people having sex. Therefore there's always risk of getting in trouble with the cops. I stay away from everything. I don't go to parties anymore. The cops always bust them and I don't wsnt to be caught up in that. They're pretty fun though. You dance, eat, meet new people.

Senior and never been to a high school party?

I recently just graduated high school, and I never went to a party with drinking and alcohol. I know this may sound crazy, but I let loose in different ways. I do have a let loose side, but for me, it's different than that. I have many friends but I didn't get them at parties-- I finally just started talking to people. I wrapped up my senior year just two days ago, and I don't regret ever not going to those parties. It wasn't who I was, and I kept my friends with them knowing that. Instead, I hung out with them differently. Maybe a movie, or going to a football game. Yeah, I know I sound lame, but bad things can come of parties like that.. I've seen the effects from people at school. Just be careful, and always be you. You being you is the best thing you could ever be. Stay true to yourself, and don't think you have to go to parties just to get friends. Instead, step out of the zone like I did and lose the shy self.. Literally, talking and laughing.. just even going out to eat would be a whole lot better than getting wasted at a party. But then again, I'm different, and the bonfires we have here aren't my thing. Good luck!!

I'm a senior in high school. I have never been to a party, gotten drunk or high, or kissed a girl. Am I a loser?

No, you're not a loser. Most people who do that end up losing in the long run. Ignore whatever the media is telling you to do to have fun.
There's too many people who call themselves losers after just about anything they don't do.

I'm facing the same problems as you.
My parents would rather have me study too much rather than playing most of the time, but it gets the work done.
I don't have my permit or my driver's license either because my dad took too long to let me learn how to drive.
My parents always believed that I'm inexperienced to do anything because they wouldn't let me help around the house at home (cuts into studying time), They believe that I'm not ready to go to college 99% of the time, even though living conditions are terrible.

Follow those dreams when you get into college. The things that you are interested in are more worthwhile than throwing parties just because mommy and daddy's not around. Even though you may be cool for throwing the best party ever, the grades will say that you're not very smart as you look.

What was your first high school party like?

Yikes.I am currently a junior in high school, and, to be honest, my “first” high school party was (is?) also my “only” high school party.So here's what happened:I, as a stupid sophomore, tried to ask out a senior girl. Somehow or other, it actually worked! When I asked, I literally could not think of a thing to say, and by this, I mean I genuinely didn't say a word. By “asking her out” I mean I passed her my phone with the new contact page open and remained as silent as a stone. But hey, got the number, I couldn't complain.Anyway, we hung out a few times, and eventually she asked me to prom. At my school, sophomores cannot go to prom unless invited by a junior or senior, so as it went, this was kinda crazy for me to be able to go and my friends kinda cheered me on and all.I thought it would be pretty fun, and for the most part it was… until this thing they call the “after party” occurred (and to be honest, I still do not get this concept. Why have a party after the main party?! Wha?…Meh, whatever)So after the prom, my “prom group,” which consisted of a ton of seniors and only seniors whom for the most part I didn't know, headed back to some kid's house. It was all going fine, but then I got kind of uncomfortable…There was beer and other alcohol and I was just too timid to try any of it plus I thought it would be stupid to do so. Then my date who I had pegged as probably the most unlikely person to drink ever, got pretty drunk…She started acting pretty weird to say the least. My reaction? Leave the party. Yup. Didn't say anything, just left. After an hour of awkwardly sitting in a corner while all the seniors played beer pong and drank, I was pretty much done. I just headed out the door and went home.Needless to say, my dad was actually pretty angry with me for leaving without seeing if my date was ok…In retrospect I probably should've done that.. but anyway, I didn't really talk much with her after that. She eventually left to college (actually ended up going to MIT, another reason I wouldn't have pegged her to do that stuff as she seemed pretty innocent/math/sciencey type). But overall, I would say it was a good experience, learned from it, yada, yada.So… moral of the story?Actually I have no idea whatsoever…maybe I'll figure it out when I'm older. One thing I did learn though: it’s not impossible to get a girl's number without saying a word…

Never been invited to a high school party?

I'm a junior and I haven't either but I really don't care lol. It doesn't say your unpopular, you just don't have the connections to get into those parties. Try to become friends with someone who throws a lot of parties or gets invited to a lot.

Never go to highschool parties?

i used to live in a different town, about 2 hours away. i lived their for 10 years. i had good friends in school and chilled with my 2 close friends most weekends. i had a pretty good life.
but i never really went to highschool parties, except birthday parties.
in my old school only the popular crowd went to parties.
i wasnt a loser, like mid popular. so i was friends with some of them but not close.
now i moved and it sucks, i made some friends. but just ones i can hang out but not really do wild things i with. i see older kids from my old school posting party pictures and they all seem like they are having a great time. (11th and 12th graders)
ive been invited to some sweet 16s but thats different..
there was about 2k kids in my old school and maybe 150 of them were usually at some of these parties.
Am i wasting my teenage years??
or when i go to college i can party then?

As a high school senior who has never drunk or partied, how difficult will it be for me to adjust to partying in college?

Not difficult, if you dive into things with the following in mind:(1) Go to parties with friends: I forget where I learned this (it might be completely anecdotal actually), but you want to go to parties where you know at least 20% of the people there. That way, it's easier to join conversations thanks to introductions from someone you already know, but you can still meet new people. It just feels more comfortable when you're not in a place with 99% strangers, you know what I mean? Go to parties with groups of friends, ones that are held by friends, etc. Of course, when starting out at college, social circles haven't formed yet, which leads me to (2)....(2) Take advantage of the pre-semester parties and Pass/NR: the first few weeks of class is an opportune time to meet people, attend the many parties that are being held, and generally get a feel for how much you actually like parties. I remember there were so many parties during REX, and because they were held at different dorms/living groups, each had a unique flavor from anime parties at Random to lively bashes at Baker. Pass/NR is there for you to figure out how to fit your study habits with social and sleep. :) (3) Treat it as a learning experience: because you haven't partied in HS, getting used to going to parties is probably going to feel discombobulating at first. Relax. Experiment (carefully!) with your alcohol tolerance to see how it affects your judgement and inhibitions. Talk to people -- even if you don't feel like they're going to become your friends, at least you're learning how to socialize with people of various types. Schmoozing and making small talk are surprisingly useful life skills. Keep an open mind. (4) Recognize FOMO, or "Fear of Missing Out": as Mao noted in his response, don't feel pressured to attend anything and everything. It's okay to miss out on parties even if your friends are going to them. Sometimes other life priorities get in the way. You're not going to be "uncool" if you don't go -- this is college, not high school.

What do you think about high school parties?

They happened so long ago that I don't remember any of them.While that comment started out to be sarcastic, the more I thought about it, the more I realized that there is some seriousness to my answer.High school parties and high school friends occupy an important place in life for an 18 yo. But, now, more than 50 years past high school, I can say that every single one of my high school friends is no closer than 1000 miles away from me. Most of those that I considered to be close are only distant memories. All of those high school parties that I considered so important don't even occupy a footnote in my memories. Most of my peers have similar stories to tell.What does that mean? Priorities. Perspective. Put your energy into things that matter. Have friends. Attend parties. But don't jeopardize your future. Be smart about where, when and how you party.

How many people attend a high school party at a house?

High school parties never stay indoors. They may start out that way, but they don't stay that way. In my current neighborhood and in all the neighborhoods in which I have live, spread among eight cities and five states, parties always spill outside. How many high school students at a party? Properly chaperoned, about as many as can fit on the site giving each about three square yards of personal space. Not chaperoned, about as many as can fit giving each about three square feet!In a thousand square foot house on a couple of thousand square feet of lot, properly chaperoned, about thirty. No chaperones —about three hundred plus the police when the neighbors complain!
