99% of my ideas for what to do with friends have to do with "we hang, but at a bar".

I've started to consider suggesting aquarium trips, outdoor movie nights, etc, but then I decided it might be nice to chit chat about it with y'all because I wanna hear what y'all like. Especially things you didn't expect to be as pleasant as they were but became a regular thing.

What’s your age? Me and my friends used to have that mindset when we were around 20. Things naturally changed from there.

The thing is that my partner and I have gone sober recently, and since I'm specifically thinking of this from the perspective of "I want to avoid alcohol", it's causing me to have a bit of a "don't think about the polar bear" moment.

We've also begun opening our circle up a bit, and while I'm perfectly comfortable having good friends come over for whatever, it feels too intimate to invite folks you barely know over.
