I have to go to this party thing tonight and my mom is willing to buy me alcohol because it's BYOB but I don't know if I actually want to drink.
I told the host that I don't want to stay overnight which means I'll have to go home tipsy if I drink. I just find the idea embarrassing.
You can bring your own alcohol, and don't share it. Get something that tastes good, so something fruity. That's what I do since I can only handle stouts and shit, so if it's a hard liquor gathering I'll go with a pack of Mike's Hard or something similar. Redd's is good too if you like cider, or Angry Orchards. You don't have to bring enough to get tipsy, and even if you get tipsy you won't act stupid. It's cool to bring a little just so you stay included.
