[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here: Things London excels in - the bars are better than anything in the us IMO — but this goes back to my op - drinking is the only form of real socialization here. - museums/galleries are great - tailoring is excellent - looking forward to Wimbledon and queens 🎾 in the spring - if you have kids that want to play soccer or race cars, uk is better than the 🇺🇸 - live theatre is excellent [/quote] OP, I wish you could find other ways to socialise. They exist. Drinking really isn’t the only form of socialisation. These are things my friends do: two play in bands, a few do ParkRun on Saturdays, one does ceroc dancing, one does ‘mature’ ballet classes, two volunteer at the Hackney City Farm, some play social soccer, one has a knitting group, a bunch meet up for book club, some do cold water swimming, and some go rambling on weekends. If you are meeting people who only want to drink then you are meeting the wrong people. It definitely is true though that people often meet at pubs but part of that is practical. When you meet up with people who live in all parts of London, you need to find somewhere to meet up centrally. When I pass through London, I often meet up with friends at a pub but nobody had more than one drink or maybe even just a coffee. It’s about getting together. [/quote]
