A friend of mine invited me out to drink at his place at 9pm and I had to decline (I don't drink and it was 9pm , thats way to late for me to go out, feels like a waste of time to go out so late). The latest I would go out to hang is 2pm now , I like to take advantage of the day and stay out for hours with friends.When I do hang out , I normally hang with from 8-9am onwards.

 

[Mistake]

Depends on the circumstances. At someone's house maybe 10:30 the latest to quit and go home (and if they have no kids.) Out at a bar like 12-1. People feel more imposed when it's at their house

 

[newtypepilot]

don't worry. Decline a couple of more times and soon no one will ever ask you again.

Naw I’m good , I have other friends to hang out with but I’ll always decline a 9pm hang out

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

Buddy, I’ve passed 40 and I can still carry on through a night better than some younger friends of mine. And I’m not the healthiest, most energetic person I know - far from it. My buddies and I usually meet at 9pm or later, most of us work late.

 

[Evil Calvin]

I'm in bed by 9

 

[MastAndo]

I'm 43, but a huge night owl, so there's no limit. I regularly start my nights out with friends at 9-10PM and end up out until the bars close. How early are you willing to start for a hang out would be a better question for me.

 

[IntentionalPun]

I’m 45 and pull all nighters a couple times a month.

 

[AgatonSax]

Do you want my answer here or on Reeee?

man if someone asks me to hang out at 8am I'm telling them to get outta here. It sounds like you're just an early bird.

 

[FunkMiller]

In Australia? Like, midnight.

In the UK?

4pm.

 

[GutsOfThor]

41 years old and my cut off is 7pm.

Edit- Unless it's a booty call then there is no cut off.

 

[cormack12]

2pm wtf - Are you mole man?

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

no time limit.

 

[Mondai]

2pm wtf - Are you mole man?

I promise I’m not a mole man

 

[INC]

Depends on the vibe of the night, I'm cool to pull and all nighter if it's fun, and I'm more than a decade over 28

 

[Sleepwalker]

I'm not even awake at 9am to hang out with nobody. If we are going to play sports yes, but hanging out early in the morning? what kind of psycho are you?

9pm is fine for me unless It's a long drive/commute.

 

[NickFire]

I can still hang all night and into the morning. But if I'm not already out at 9 PM, its not happening.

 

[Sushi_Combo]

If they allow me to crash at their place, of course.

 

[lachesis]

No time limit unless it hinders my next day routine. I'm a night owl, so normally no problem.
However my friends, who are 50 - they fall a sleep early, like 9-10pm!

I like to take advantage of the day

 

[Sleepwalker]

I like to take advantage of the day

I woke up at 10:30 today, life's good

 

[Games of Today]

I'm lucky enough to have personal friends that all really prioritize videogames or movies over drinking.

We'll rarely initiate post 9pm hangouts but if a hangout begins around 6pm to 7pm we'll usually always go well past 9pm until around 12pm or so.

 

[LordOfChaos]

Yeah really depends on the situation and my mood. For a scheduled party I'd go out 9, 10 maybe, any later than that is getting late unless I'm already out nearby.

 

[Muffdraul]

If someone called me at 9pm and said, "Come over right now for beers" that would be weird and I'd probably decline no matter how young and spry I was.

But if they said, "Cruise over tonight at 9pm," I could hang with that. I was always a night owl and that didn't change until my mid 30s.

Today at 54, if a friend invites me for beers a month from now... "I dunno, I'm kinda busy."

 

[ReBurn]

I don't want to be out past 9 if I can help it.

 

[SpiceRacz]

Hanging out is almost always an evening thing for me. If there's beers involved, I'll go until last call or whenever the party ends. Whichever comes first.

 

[Mossybrew]

I haven't been into hanging out late in a long time. I like my sleep man, like to wind down in peace beforehand. I'll go out around dinnertime like 4-6 and you better let me know a week in advance at least. I'm a homebody these days.

 

[Skyfox]

Having a young kid and then covid kinda ruined my social life.

Trying to get it back but it's a slog because work was too intense this year too.

I keep hoping things will improve and the truth is they gradually are so, here's to a fun 2024 for us all!

 

[Kilau]

What is friend?

 

[Pejo]

If the friend needed me for an important reason I'd be available whenever.

If it's just to grab a beer and shoot the shit, I probably wouldn't leave my house past 10PM anymore.

 

[Azzurri]

Never on a weekday cause work.

Weekend it depends on my mood.

 

[-Minsc-]

Married, sorry.

 

[YukiOnna]

I don't stay out past 8-9PM, of course there are exceptions depending on what's happening, but I'd rather check out by then. Although, I prefer meeting earlier and being done by 4-5. Luckily, the company I am with are the of the same mindset.

 

[AJUMP23]

It has more to do with family. If friends want me out past when my kids go to bed. I check with my wife if she can deal.

 

[NinjaMouse]

If it's not happy hour/right after work, there's almost zero chance I'm going back out to meet people after I've already gotten home. If it's a special occasion or a long time friend who lives far away and happens to be in town, I'll probably come back out unless it's past 8 or so. If later than that, I'll catch them next time.

 

[Kamina]

By 9 i am already tucked in for the night

 

[Faust]

8-9 PM. I wake up usually around 5-6 in the morning.

 

[Ownage]

Late 40-something guy here. Latest is 11pm unless she's hot and a sure thing.

Most of the time, nothing after 10pm.

 

[Dirk Benedict]

I have enough Friends to count on one hand. Everyone else? Acquaintances.
With that mentioned, I would go to the Moon and back for my Friends. Including driving 150 miles to hang out for a few hours and drive home.
This was recent. I Love my Friends.

Edit: 40 something that basks in the Lazarus Pit, I look early mid twenties/thirties.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

If it's a work day the next day, maybe 9-10 pm. By that time I had enough.

If it's Friday or Saturday night hanging out or eating out somewhere I'm usually done by midnight or so. If there's a bunch of us I'm often the first one to bail.

 

[StueyDuck]

Do people in other countries not have normal social lives .

You just go and you stay as long as you need and sometimes that might end up at midnight and you are driving home late, sometimes it might be a chilled lunch or a rugby game or whatever.

The only time you need to worry about anything is if you have someone else relying on you like a child who needs you home or if you have work the next day.

Some of you really overthink life, no wonder everyone today suffers from all these mental health issues. People have forgotten how to exist without the internet

 

[Little Mac]

I try to be asleep by 9pm haha I'm usually up by 4:30-5 and at the gym usually by 6:30ish. When I hang with friends and family its preferably in the 5-8pm range (usually around dinner) or earlier if its the weekend.

 

[MudoSkills]

You don't work? Your friends don't work? Who is around at 2pm on a weekday to hang out?

This, totally agree.

What is the problem if an evening you get back home late? Are you going to be less productive? Who cares?! The world goes on with or without any of us. Go out , have fun, living a life like what some un this thread are doing, is not living at all, is just surviving.

Edit: I don't remember the last time I went to sleep before 2 am... maybe last month 1 time... not sure. And I'm the chief of a mechanical factory with 160 ppl working in it.

 

[BadBurger]

I still party on occasion if that's what you're getting at. I'm married now so I can't get raw dog like I used to, but I can still party with the best of them.

 

[Edmund]

Up to 11pm if the next day is a working day. 2am or max 3am if the next day is an off day. I enjoy being with my friends.

 

[tamago84]

39 here. I stopped human interaction (except professional/family) for a long time now

 

[killatopak]

We can stay until morning if need be. I just need to be informed of it before 10pm. Unfortunately my friends have a habit of calling me at 1am. Sometimes I don’t even bother looking at my phone cause I know the only people who are calling me at that time are exclusively those who are inviting me out for a drink.

 

[ssringo]

42 here. I'm not going out for anything late unless it's dinner so maybe 7pm. I'd actually rather be at home once it gets dark (hate driving at night) which would baffle my younger self. But if you want to play some co-op games I'll hang with you into the morning hours. Yes, even with work looming. Can't pull all nighters anymore but can still work off a couple hours sleep.
