Ive been away for a few days catching up with mates in London and Manchester, none of them train. So we goes out a few times and I had forgotten how much everything they do socially is based on bars and drinking. Even when going for food they start with a pint, then bottles of wine through dinner. You see the thing with me and drink is I actually dread being in situations where I have to drink, I actually dont like alcohol, never drink at home and prob only drink 1-2 times per month BUT if your pals and social situations are going to include alcohol ive always had a few rather than stand out not drinking. Ive made a decision to not drink anymore as I hardly do it anyway, im going to have a quiet word with my m8s and say ive stopped drinking I need to remove the angst I have with alcohol as i dread going out as drinks involved- so im removing that feeling by telling people i don't does anyone else not drink or have this battle of having to drink when ur out socially?
Where Does Alcohol Fit In With Your Life? Fair play to you for giving it up if you dont enjoy it, why bother with it if you dont like it. Just dont become the DD every night I cant have drunk people around me when I am stone cold sober, they do my head completely in. I like a wee beer on either friday or saturday. After a hard working week its like liquid gold going down the hatch. I stick to about 6 bottles and thats my lot. If going out with my old clubbing mates I will drink something a bit harder and probably more beers, but those nights are very few and far between these days.
Where Does Alcohol Fit In With Your Life? I go out roughly twice a year. Since I stopped drinking I've lost contact with most people and become a social recluse. I like it this way.
Where Does Alcohol Fit In With Your Life? I drink once or twice a year, i prefer to spend my money on gear ;-)
Where Does Alcohol Fit In With Your Life? i use to drink every weekend from the age of 16 and now im 22 i decided to knock it on the hea di last 2 months without a sip of alc but 2 weeks ago i went out and craved a couple beers and got wasted on only a few pints ... but if you dont like alcohol anymore then just tell them its your choice at the end of the day you can always drink coke and if anyone asks just says its jd and coke
Where Does Alcohol Fit In With Your Life? I've not had a drink all year, really wasn't enjoying it. And couldn't handle it and felt awful for days after. I've got used to going out now and having a J2O.
