Is it really that common for people to do coke?

I'm not in the UK but I know quite a few people who do it and it really fucks me off the way it breaks up a night if we are all out. At a certain point the little secret convos and the phone calls start and then two or three disappear to get some and take it, then some others do the same, and the night just disintegrates. We're no longer a group having a night out together.

I did try it one night at uni and it was actually fun, but I suddenly got a horrible moment of clarity where I realised I was rabbiting on about some childhood anecdote that no one could possibly give two shits about and thought 'what the absolute fuck are you on about'. I never touched it again, partly because I realised it made you act like a self-absorbed twat but partly because I actually enjoyed it and did not want to get sucked in.
