Sooner or later drinking is going to loose it's appeal in your life.
Because of it I would try to accept the good fortune of making a friend that doesn't need alcohol to enjoy life and make an effort to keep them as a friend. Rather than force something on them they don't want maybe you want to think why alcohol seems so important in your life. |

why do you find the need to change someone from who they truely are? Not everyone needs to drink to have a good time or be social

Well if my biggest problem was that my friends keep trying to buy me a drink, then I would consider myself lucky.

If you made a new friend and you found out they don't drink and never have and never will, would you try to get them to drink? why? I am that person who doesnt drink and will not choose to, so Id be thrilled to meet someone like that and I would be more likely to support and encourage their choice than change it. |

I don't trust anyone who doesn't drink! People have said this to me before, how many people really feel this way? |

I would take it as a joke, we say it here as well, I don't drink but my friends definately trust me. Basically don;t worry about any of it, i never drank, still dont, but always had fun with my friends. i was also always the driver, so nobody cared. |

I've been married to 2 alcoholics, 1 still drinks,1 is recovering. The recovering one took a lot of heat when he quit drinking from his ol' pals but once they realized he was serious about his choice to quit they were very supportive and happy for him. Alcohol can be toxic to some people and I think it is very unfair and uncaring for a person to entice another to drink especially not knowing what reactions could take place. One can have a great time being out w/the crowd and stay sober and it's so much nicer in the morning to remember what you did or didn't do, lol.

Question for those who don't drink. If you meet someone you get along well with (friend or more) would you continue to develop that friendship or relationship if you found out they did enjoy drinking? [/quote I don't drink..well very rarely anyhow. But my late husband and my kids and ALL of my friends enjoy a drink. that has not bothered me , so yes I would continue to develop the friendship. |

Why would you waste your time wishing people would act the way you want them to act?  So I can go out and have fun without people trying to get me to drink |

If you don't wanna drink...DON'T.
You can still go hang out with your friends, shoot pool, throw darts and socalize.... Just a matter of self control. Just cause ya go to a football game doesn't mean you gotta jump out onto the field. |

personal choices are personal. i would ask a friend to try something new (whatever it may be) but if they declined, i would leave it alone. from that point forward i would not invite that friend to any activity that included what the friend declined. i would look for other things to do, or accept an invitation from that friend to do other things that did not include what the friend refrains from doing this is friendship... wisdom too. |

If I met a new friend and found out that they don't drink and never have and never will....
I would not try to get them to drink-evidently this is what they want and this is who they are... I would accept and respect that and still be their friend afterall isn't that what friendship is all about... |
