Fast forward another 4-5 years, and I was friends with a group of dudes who were about 25-27. I'd watch them whoop it up at the bar, meeting girls & stuff, and I remember thinking "Why the heck did I feel so old and out of place when I was that age?!?" Sometimes you just need to get out of your own head and go with the flow.
That said, I definitely don't have your constitution with booze anymore, it kicks my butt so hard the next day every time. But I try to keep a youthful mentality and stay active (easier to say when you're childless like myself)

I have 2 kids that help me stay young. Walking them to/from school, going to places like Big Box and Flying Squirrel, and lots of rough housing at home. And for me the booze is all about staying in my comfort lane, I can drink beer and/or whisky-soda's all night long and be relatively ok the next day. But if I get roped into a heavy wine night, all that goes out the window and I'm a useless bag of #### the day after
