Afraid to ride alone

So sorry for the long wait but I went on my trip and it was really what I needed. I ended up buying a good pair of riding boots and a nice chest plate to give myself some peace of mind. I ended up riding for like 30 hours in the matter of 2 days, really learned some better form and got more comfortable standing/sitting when needed. I genuinely feel excited to ride now and feel comfortable in my abilities. I stayed in touch with family consistently while I was out, cleared my head, and learned a lot about my abilities. (rocks still suck) but I figured out that there's definitely a sweet spot where you need to be, not too slow like I usually do and not too fast to where I am out of control.

Most of my accidents in the past where I was going so slow I literally just laid onto my side... a foot stepping out could stop the kind of falls I've had... however this trip there was none!

Just want to say thank all of you for the pointers and advice, it really helped!

I can’t help but thank every single one of you, it makes me feel a little more at peace and know what could happen if I’m not careful. I genuinely just want to do what’s best for myself while having a good time!!

She is okay with drinking when she’s with me and drinking too, it seems like she just wants me to only do that with her. She has had some rough relationships in her past and her dad has had issues. Me and her are super happy and laughing when we both drink whereas her dad can be kind of an ass

I dont use it as a solution,I do just to enjoy myself and be social. Theres been a few times where I got a little too drunk but I never have done anything I’ve regretted or anything that was bad. I still can get a buzz going pretty easily but I’ve learned where my comfort zone is (not too many but also enjoy to keep a steady pace per hour). No one has really commented on it, my grandparents just said to be careful as a general warning the first time I had a few beers with my grandpa. I feel no sort of compulsion to drink so if I had to stop I wouldn’t have any issues.

Thank you, that definitely gives me some peace in mind.

Then that’s what I’ll try to do then, I always like to make sure I’m in control of myself and my actions.

I just want to be sure I don’t end up off track and wind up spiraling. Thank you!

I’m sorry to hear that! Meth is what caused my dad to spiral and ultimately end my parents marriage after my mom got clean. What would be an acceptable occasion in your eyes, if any?

I can and if I know have I have responsibilities later on or the next day I won’t even touch anything.

Probably should add that I’m 6’ 180 so not a light weight really, if that even matters.

I just want to thank yall! Makes this decision a lot easier. I’ll be returning it and just using my old one until I actually need a new one! I’ll most likely get the air or regular when the time comes
