I am so glad to see all this support to not drinking. It is becoming such a social taboo when you tell people you don't want to. I felt like I had to make excuses for myself all the time, that I couldn't for medical reasons etc. because I felt so judged for simply saying I just didn't want to out of choice. I do accept people who drink, I don't judge people who drink sensibly, but unfortunately its so hard to refrain from a negative view of drinking when I'm surrounded by the worst examples of it in people. One of the girls who works with me told me she spent £580 on a drinking holiday!! And this was just the spending on drinks, not the hotel or flights, JUST drinking! How she managed to blow that much money is beyond me. I have had hands on experience too of how different my friends changed when they first started to explore drinking. Out of curiosity I have also tried it. Never. Again. Tastes horrible, makes you feel horrible, makes you look horrible, gives me no buzz apart from a headache. I think alcohol just doesn't agree with me. I am so proud there are still people out there sticking to their beliefs and morals. Its a hard thing to do, I know.
Where are all you guys??? Do you know how hard it is for a girl to find a guy that doesn't drink????
