That you’re going about it all wrong I’d you are asking for advice on the internet for how to socialize at a party. Just go and try to have fun. Don’t overthink it. If you don’t like being there you can leave. You don’t have to get into anything you don’t feel comfortable with. You probably won’t even remember this party by the time your 25.

It’s just a party, you will attend thousands of them in your life, some will be the best nights of your life, some will be really bad nights. It’s how all of life is. There is no manual or list of tips and hacks. If you go to a party trying to adhere to some list of dos and don’t it won’t go well because you aren’t supposed to be thinking about that at all at a party. You’re supposed to be relaxing and enjoying other peoples company.

The only tip is, don’t try to be cool, and don’t get too wasted.
