Just got a call from a girl I am interested in and was invited to pre-game before we go clubbing on Tuesday with her and her friend and possibly others. I didn't commit, but I have decided now I will go. I mentioned my friend would probably go, as well.

Unlike previous offers, this was a clear invite to come hang out with her and her friends rather than just meet up at the club. So, I wouldn't feel bad going to her pre-game party even if my friend doesn't want to come.

Now, I've only been to a pre-game or house party once in my life before (that's what you get for being extremely shy and anti-social for the first 20 years of your life). I went to a pre-game 3 years ago during my freshman year in college. I didn't drink at the time and all I remember was like 15 people jammed into a dorm, passing around the liquor bottle and drinking beers and music was playing and people were joking around. I didn't really know anyone so I didn't feel bad not saying anything.

However, this time it will be different. It will be a small party with maybe only 3 or 4 people so I gotta talk and be the life of the party, which is something I've never done (it's gonna be tough...I'm gonna pre-drink before the pre-game haha). Also, it will be at someone's house so it won't be crowded and we'll have couches and ****.

A couple questions:

- I want to make a move on this girl. Should I do something at the pre-game? Just warm her up to me at the pre-game? Make a move at the club? Try to have an after party with her?

- For those that party a lot, what can I expect at a small pre-game party? What advice would you give me?

- How much alcohol should I bring?

Thanks!

- Make a move when you feel the vibe. Don't overthink that you have to make a move at this time or that time. Go with the flow.

- Pre game is usually getting drunk beforehand so you don't have to waste money getting drunk there or so you can just go there. Your dorm story sounds about right, thats what we did this year, just pounded alcohol before we headed to another party/club etc.

- Theres a lot of factors on that, how drunk do you wanna get? I would suggest a handle of vodka,tequilla, etc whatever is your boat. Could give out some shots and that would help with being the center of attention of

Just introduce yourself to everyone else, make small talk, a joke here and there and just relax.

Or...

Make some joke that involve everyone at the party. Ask people what they thought of certain movies or current events and just try and get a conversation going that involves alot of people.

But going into the party with the intention of being the life of the party...sounds like a recipe for disaster. Your bound to come off as trying to hard if you go in wanting to be the life of the party.

Mr. Mystery

you dont wanna get too drunk or you will be ****ed up by the end of the night. just bring a six pack of whatever beer you drink and probably wont even drink it all. i wouldnt make a move on her just yet, mabye just some kino. you dont have to be the life of the party just be friendly and talk to everyone thats there.
