What are your first thoughts when someone tells you "I don't drink"?

[r-man jam]

Im currently in recovery. Spent 6 weeks in rehab. Have over 1 year sober. Do it one day at a time. Best move I ever made.

Separates the men from the boys and I see they are boys and immediately leave that area.

"Oh."

 

[nanbeezy]

I'm that person and every time I get bombarded with questions (religion, bad experience, etc..), which is annoying.

Most people who ask start acting strange and uncomfortable when I tell them I don't drink, ever. I hate that awkward moment seconds afterwards.

First thoughts? Overly religious or recovering alcoholic. 

But there are people who just don't like to drink. It is what it is.

[marcmac360]

I'll ask why and depending on their response I will either respect it or laugh it off.

This. I just don't drink. Nothing to do with religion or anything else.


I tried it before, thought it was disgusting and never tried it again.

 

[miniojw]

Oh word... okay and keep it moving. I would not care to know why.

I hear that all the time... "Just one shot brah, c'mon"

I'll twist a few B's up daily, but I might only drink once, maybe 2x a month...

Everyone has a reason for the things that they do, some people don't drink because of health issues, some people don't drink because of addiction... it's more safe not to assume or jump too any conclusions when someone tells you they dont sip.

I don't drink but I don't tell people I don't drink, I just say no thank you when I'm offered. This thread is exactly why, people pass judgement when they have no idea what you're about.

 

[servechilled81]

nothing really. I don't drink.... anymore. Messes with my stomach too much

 

[flacobey]

I assume they're boring and uptight

althougj, I didn't drink for a couple months after a few bad experiences with alcohol. I imagine that's the case for a lot of people who no longer drink.

 

[scarsorscabs]

I respect it.

True.

 

[swendro]

They're cool

Liar

 

[oh you mad]

I'd rather not drink, but if you offer I'll take it. If you offer me a second time ill decline.
