Figured out why my networking event was a total bust last Thursday

I went to this mixer at the Detroit Athletic Club and spent 20 minutes talking to one guy about his kids. Realized after that everyone else was handing out cards and I missed like 15 chances to meet people. Anyone else struggle with breaking away from a conversation at these things?

Buddy of mine just walked away mid-sentence to grab a drink. Never came back.

Did he ever come back with the drink or just vanish?
