Great tale, well told. I have a question though. What's the difference between a party and the college bar? I found the latter far more intimidating/offputting than I've ever found a party. But I'd say you were the opposite.
I love this story, it was so evocative I felt like I was right there with you at the party. Long-form writing feels like a dying art these days so thank you for sharing this. In the spirit of sharing I thought you might appreciate Kalina Silverman's work, who offers an alternative to small talk; Big Talk. https://www.makebigtalk.com/

True. I think the difference is that in a bar you’re allowed to sit alone and nurse a pint or read a book if you choose to. No forced fun.

I personally find her work very inspiring.
Thanks Camilla! Big Talk looks fascinating, I'm checking it out now. I'd never heard of it before, thank you!
What a great tale!
