I've made actual friends out of party friends
I did so as well, my closest friends I met at parties like 2 to 3 decades ago. But my Facebook friends list is full of party friends, maybe 200 maybe even 300 peeps I somehow spend time with during and around parties (like after-parties and whatnot). I lost count but been to maybe a few (to more) 1000 parties over a 3-decade period, so I met a LOT of peeps and partied and hung with many of them. I still keep 'meeting' peeps on dance floors I didnt see for a decade, or two or more. Thinking of it, the 300 is maybe still on the lower end, realistically this may be 400 to 500...
