I moved to a new city two months ago where I know basically no one. short version is I got so drunk I threw up all over myself.

42M.

I joined a locally owned gym when I moved here. they had a game day yesterday and I went mostly just to meet people. I won the game day and the owner of the gym asked if I'd stay for the get together afterwards for members. I'm a gym member. I say sure. I want to meet new people.

drinks were self serve bc were adults.

fast forward two or three hours and I'm throwing up by the tennis courts. owner's brother appears (so someone must have reported me) and gets me in his car to drive me home. I remember giving him my address and him telling me to throw up out the window. he was in my building next to my door asking if anyone would take care of me in my place.

I just woke up in my bed. it's 5 am here.

I'm so fucking embarrassed. I'm 42. people were there with their kids. It wasn't a real party, it was a fucking "talk to people with drinks" thing. I can't just move away, I live here now.

tl;dr how can I be so fucking stupid. I drank way too much at a friendly community event that I had to be driven home by a stranger after throwing up outside.

Edit: I almost never drink anymore. I remember telling the guy in the car that I'm on a cut but that's no excuse. I served myself tall glasses of some kind of cocktail with rum.

I can't just move away. I bought property. I live here now. I'm so fucking stupid.i want to move away so badly but I can't afford that.
