LIEK OMG SOMETIME I FEEL LIKE IM THE ONLY ONE who does not and has not ever…”partied”. In one aspect its lame because that’s one level I can’t relate to my friends and loved ones on but on the other hand I can say Ive been clean for my ENTIRE LIFE.
I use to say I missed the juvenile delinquent stage of my life. I’ve never been to a party (video game parties, not PARTY parties), and I’ve never had any want to use pot or anything. I’ve never drank alcohol and I’m very strongly spoken about it (trying to not be so strong spoken about it…). I don’t even like to be in the same room as people drinking.
I remember my brother saying he was disappointed that I was in the same room and his fiancée and a bunch of her friends. He said he didn’t like that I was in the room, and not participating in the conversation. I told him I couldn’t relate to anything they were talking about for 90% of the time because all they were talking about what “remember that time I was wasted” 😐
Since he came home late (and thus wasn’t there for most of the convo), he understood when I said that.October 22, 2010 at 8:20 pm #829830Hoo-Ha for me too! Never did any drugs or anything like that ever. I sure did feel left out a lot growing up, but I am glad now. 😀

Kujacker, I can totally relate to not liking/not wanting to be in the same room as a ‘drunk’. I don’t think it’s funny, I don’t think people who are drunk realize just how ignorant they act, and I personally don’t find a ‘drunk person’ to be entertaining in the least or to be any better than someone who is high on heroin or tripping on acid. The availability of alcohol is probably a major plot by the unknown powers that be to keep folks down, so those powers can KEEP the power LOL
I find drunk people don’t like to be around ME (lol)
All kidding aside, there are alcoholics in my family, and none ever had the life they should have. There are drug addicts in the family, and they will never have the life they should have. And it’s just a crying shame :/
October 23, 2010 at 4:13 am #829832It is really sad to see people go through an addiction. The worst part-only they can help themselves, and no one can do it for them. It is so hard.
October 23, 2010 at 8:14 am #829833HOO-HA!!! I don’t drink, smoke, or do drugs either! Never have; never will! (…and proud of it too!)
I really don’t like the idea of not being able to have complete control over myself or my actions. Since I was so content growing up without doing anything, I don’t see a reason why I should start now!
October 23, 2010 at 2:59 pm #829834What Puffpastry said. I don’t like not being in control of myself, and drunk people can be so stupid. I quit after two glasses of any alcohol, don’t smoke and have never done drugs. Won’t start, either!
October 23, 2010 at 5:16 pm #829835Don’t drink (Hubby and I had sparkling cider just for us at our wedding), don’t smoke, don’t do any illegal drugs…
My first boyfriend was a druggie. It was part of my bad boy phase I guess. He and his room mates would grow pot plants in their closet. He was a smoker too. I’m just glad I never let myself be sucked into that world.
October 23, 2010 at 6:03 pm #829836Never smoked, never did drugs – though I came of age in the late 60s/early 70s and can testify that a party really goes downhill when the pot comes out – and don’t drink much. Too busy reading (now that’s an addiction that interferes with getting things done …) 😀
October 23, 2010 at 7:02 pm #829837Hoo-ha no drugs here! 😀
unless you count an addiction to sugar…..i have a notorious sweet tooth.
October 23, 2010 at 7:50 pm #829838I was never a partier either. I’ve never been drunk although I think I was pretty buzzed once and couldn’t walk exactly straight, but that’s about the worst I have ever been and that was YEARS ago. I don’t go clubbing or out to parties… I don’t even get invited anymore because people are like “Why didn’t you invite Mandy?” “Cause she NEVER COMES!” 😆 I feel like an awful friend sometimes because of it, but it’s just not me. Most of my really good friends understand it’s nothing against them. It’s just not my thing. I don’t need drugs and booze to have a good time, nor do I want it. I am completely content kicking back and watching movies, painting, sewing, or just hanging out and stuffing my face with food. Now THAT is a good time in my book :yes:
The biggest “event” in my life is when I go to the anime con every year for 3 days. No vacations, just go and walk around in a costume for 3 days and be a geek with other geeks like me. 🙂
I know I live like an old lady, but it’s fine with me.
I feel sometimes like I have missed out on alot though… but when I actually DO try and be social with people who have different ideas of a good time I realize I’m not missing out on much. I’ll finally break down after being begged for hours and my phone blowing up to PLEASE get my butt to the bar and hang out for even just a little while. Once in a great while I’m like “FINE! I’ll go!”
When I don’t find some reason to cancel I go and sit…. watch people act like idiots…. and go home… yup…. good time…. I feel like I could have got something accomplished in the time I wasted and then I just feel bad that I feel that way so I would rather not go in the first place.
Does that make me a crappy friend? Yea… sometimes I guess… that’s probably why I spend so much time on the forum with people who actually “GET” me. 😆

I will occasionally have a drink or two depending on the occasion, but I CAN NOT stand to be drunk (thus I tend to stay away from “hard” or high alcohol liquors). I MUST be in control and be able to think straight (major control freak). So no drunkenness for me. 🙂
I am also seriously against any form of drunk driving. I was hit by a drunk driver once. 😡 In college, I was usually the DD. 8)
I never feel “left out”, as I can do stupid things sober. I might lie and blame it on the alcohol, but it really is just me cutting loose… and I was probably just drinking water. LOL! 😈 😆
October 24, 2010 at 1:57 am #829840Hoo-Ha!!! None at the Campbell’s either!! Nice to see me boyohs won’t have to grow up without the support of good folks like this here family for moral support! Good on y’all!

October 24, 2010 at 2:30 am #829841Hoo-Ha! Here too. No smoking, drugs or drinking. I have tasted many drinks but have never cared for the sensation of the alcohol in my system. The beginning of my freshman year of college I attended my first and last “party”. Once I was done hanging out with all the drunks I helped someone get back to their room. He was so drunk he could barley walk without assistance. It was a lame night for me and reminded me why I chose not to drink.
I suppose I am a bit of a control freak, too. The idea of not being in control scares the doodie out of me.
October 24, 2010 at 2:45 am #829842I have like no tolerance for alcohol. Probably because I just about never drink it so I haven’t built any to it. I’ve never even gone to a bar before. Just a couple sips of a drink gives me a killer migraine. And 2.5 Smirnoffs Ices over 6 hours on 4th July had my head in the toilet bowl with no one to hold my hair :puke: 😆 . So I’m all good with never drinking again.
Never done drugs, but I did sneak and smoke my mother’s cigarettes for a short time when I was in elementary school. Thankfully that ended when she caught me 😳

You actually might be allergic to alcohol… just a thought. My fiancé knew someone who was allergic to alcohol and it manifested in appearing kind of like you’re describing.
