It occurred to me that, as an adult, I feel I need a reason to invite friends over. My wife thinks this is pitiful. I invited a couple of friends over for a curry and a boardgame night - it was a fine evening - but without that reason of having a shared activity, I'd never have done it.
Jusy wondered if I'm alone in this, and if there's any men out there who DO invite male friends over with no plans or expectations for the evening?
Pic unrelated.
This is why the British have tea.
"Comin over for a brew?" Is an invitation to come over with zero plans. Might be video games, might be TV and chat, might end up having a BBQ. Could be whatever, just come hang out.
In Finland it's coffee. So a Finn inviting you over for coffee is actually an invitation to just hang casually, not an euphemism for some afternoon delight.
This is how it was for me in college, but "brew" meant beer. At some point it seems me and my friends all mutually decided we can only hang out if we're doing something specific, and I think we've all suffered for that.
