A teetotaler managing an alcohol-centric gathering can face challenges when guests continue drinking after a meal. As the host, gracefully exiting the table can be difficult but is necessary for personal comfort. To address this, it is suggested to manage the flow of alcohol and transition to coffee as the evening progresses. It is important not to imply that the gathering is ending and to consider the guests' enjoyment while also facilitating a more balanced atmosphere.
As a host, you cannot properly leave your own party, even though Miss Manners understands both that it has become a bore for you and that the guests are unlikely to notice your absence.
After all, you did not keep serving the pot roast until the guests begged for mercy. So at some point, stop pouring wine and offer coffee instead.
