But, isn't that unlikely? Unless you came from a totally "holy" background, you probably have been exposed to all types of drinkers.

Yeah, I don't really think that's his excuse/reasoning for feeling the way that he does. I was just addressing your question w/regards to Droefille's post.

I meant to say the people who ONLY drink to get trashed.

He could have grown up with non-drinkers and went to school where his roommates, friends, etc turned out to be the "I got so drunk I made out with a 40 year old guy in the bar... where's the keyhole?" "um, that's the wall.. and it's 4:30 in the afternoon." kind of people. I know a few myself.

Laughing because I know people exactly like this.

Worst is when that person was supposed to be sober for an event... that evening.

She spent a bit of time swinging around a tree while we waited for the bus...

Yes, but if you only KNOW how to drink to get trashed, and can't have just a drink with dinner, or A beer at the bar, that's a pretty good indicator of a problem.

I can't even imagine how someone could claim that drinking is "just a really unattractive look for her when she does it." I mean, sitting at a bar drinking a pint of beer looks MUCH worse than sitting at a bar drinking a coke. Right?

Yes. And apparently he can tell the difference between vodka on the rocks and water. Crazy.

Clearly...and don't let her have a glass of wine. That's just down right sloppy.

Why do I get the feeling that if a girl he was with did order wine, it would be White Zin???

tunatartare · #**131** 07-19-2006, 01:31 PM

There's nothing wrong with White Zin.

I wish I had more free time during the day to respond to what a lot of people are saying. I believe some said that in the long run I would not want to date a woman who drink because the occassional compassionate reminders would turn into nagging...no it wouldn't. Even though there are a set of standards that I hold for what the perfect women for me is, I'm not out here trying to find a "perfect woman" because 9 times out of ten she's not going to it. All I'm saying is that I understand some people are different and I wouldn't let the fact that she occassional drink get stop me from dating her...especially if I really liked her. The same goes for sex. And I don't understand why with a lot of people that are responding on here, why they couldn't get over the someone NOT doing those things. As far as the people I hang out with it varies...Non drinkers, social drinkers, alcholics....I'm just trying to figure out what's so damn good about alcohol. Personal, I've tried it various times at a very young age and I never liked the stuff. Whether it was something fruity or something as strong as Jack Daneils. It's just as self destructive as drugs, smoking and hoing in my opinion.

AlphaFrog · #**133** 07-19-2006, 01:44 PM

So basically you started this thread for reinforcement, so people here could pat you on the back and applaud your morals?? If you don't want to be with a woman who smokes, drinks, or has sex, that's your choice. What difference does it make if someone who does smoke, drink or have sex finds you lame, if you don't want to be with them anyway??
