The buzz is missing… just drunk

This title sounds like a good thing. Just a little puzzled by it. I catch myself being overly nostalgic w certain friends by consuming too much and assuming the buzz will come. It never does. Any recommendations for what I should be drinking that’s alcohol free and the bartender is with mixing ? I guess I still like the atmosphere of a dive every so often and it feels like I should be grabbing on to something with my hand. Idunno… looking for comments that can relate and maybe have a deeper understanding of what is going on. Notes. I’m a once a week drinker… sometimes twice. This consists of a couple of beers tops in the middle of the week and maybe a couple cocktails plus a beer weekend. Otherwise; it can be significantly less for weeks here and there. I simply don’t crave it. It’s more environmental. 44yo
