Don't get tricked into staying in.

I'll make this short and sweet; don't get tricked into staying in on a night when you know you'll have a lot of fun going on. If you get told it will be fun to hang out at home with a small group, you're probably being lied to, or tricked into having less fun, just so that the other people will have more fun with you there. Only reason to stay in, is if you have a decently sized party at your place, or if you're assured of female companionship. If it's just a chance, then you probably have better chances if you go out.

Perfect point Rye! In addition, despite what most people think it's really not natural for people to stay at home. Humans naturally feel better around other humans. Its just an inherit trait that is built deep down inside all of us that we like to be around others. When you start going out a few times a week if you don't already, you will notice a drastic improvement in your overall attitude. If you can get that from a small group at home, and are garaunteed some companionship like Rye said then great. If not, get cleaned up, and get your butt out of the house.

Barring college parties, or parties i threw when i had my apartment, i have yet to goto someones house even with the promise of chicks, alcohol, or a good time....and have such. This is such a good point. Its almost 99.9% of the time better to go out on your own, especially when your 21+. Before then i can see taking up the house party but even then try and find an 18 to enter club and hit that up instead.
