It\’s getting to a point where I wonder why I go to bars…when I don\’t drink. Isn\’t this too ironic? Why go to a bar if I don\’t intend to drink at all?
A lot of the time, I want to hide the fact that I am not having alcohol. I don\’t really want my housemate advertising this fact. Just to alleviate the pressure. It\’s embarassing, yet am I not supposed to be proud of the fact that I don\’t drink at all? Isn\’t it like being like a vegetarian? People respect those who choose not to eat meat. But I don\’t get the same respect sometimes.
Ridiculous my friend. Don\’t feel weird for not drinking. I don\’t either, and I\’m the one who doesn\’t have to worry about messing up or acting like a fool while drunk. Although chocolate can do the same for me, but I just can\’t resist it.
but then do you go to bars? why do I go knowing that I will have to face the pressure?
my roomie goes along for the company and to be the designated driver.
There is never a need to drink!! =D
designated drivers are cool. it\’s hard to find people who put up with drunk people and are still willing to drive them home. i wish i would have known you in college =)
Situations like this are good to tell who really cares about you vs otherwise. Besides, you have to deal with other pressure all the time, how is this any different?
i didn\’t drink yesterday either. ahaha. I also was dd and had to take care of my VERY drunk friend…aka sex kitten. (i got the same feedback from this guy dressed as a mexican. he demanded to know why I the pirate was not drinking..since pirates are notoriously known for getting drunk off rum). I huffed away when he kept hassling with me.
