Let's count..Do you drink alcohol beverages?

No. Rarely do I drink alcoholic beverages. Not because I am trying to be "goody~goddy" But, because I do not prefer it. Also-I don't like the way that others act when they do. It is a real downer for me. Both the way it makes me feel if I do drink and putting up with the ppl that do. Just being honest!

I am too much of a sweet tooth to go for alcohol, unless of course it is baileys or something but I prefer to stick with coca cola and sweet drinks, I never did want get into alcohol, I am silly enough without it... ...

I drink alcohol, but i am only a social drink-er. I used to go clubbin with my friends, and there I have a glass or two. I just blend in. I don't drink at home or while I am driving... and I am not shy, that's my experience.:)

I don't drink for health reasons but there are times that I wish I could have a drink. I was never a heavy drinker and I think I was drunk only 3 times in my life, the last time my 4 grown children laugh and talk about to this day. The first drink that I had was at my parents' home when I was growing up. We were allowed to have a drink during the holidays at home before it was legal for us to have it and I think it might have been something as awful as a 7/7. I have had a variety of different kinds of drinks and find that I like sweeter drinks and I do not care for beer. When I did drink it would only be on special occasions. Maybe at dinner out with family and friends or in my bowling league when they would give us a free drink for the holidays. I rarely if ever had alcohol in my home, except I was married 2 times and both of my husbands drank beer that was sometimes in the fridge. The only alcoholic drinks I get now are sips of my daughters' drinks when we are out together.

hi katkat!

count me in.^__~ i started drinking after i graduated from high school. and yes, my friends kinda got me into it. as far as i can remember, the first time i tasted beer was when we were swimming. i only drank one can and yet, my mind was floating, my vision was not steady and i felt like the world was spinning.^__^;; that was only one beer. when i started going to college, that's when i also started my training on drinking beer. we don't always drink, we only drink occasionally but we always drink the strongest available beer.^__^;; and the more i drink, the more i was able to tolerate it and i passed my limit of one can. LOL

i got more training in drinking when i started working as a community organizer. we worked with people from remote places where the usual past time is drinking and singing. i didn't just drink beer then, i got to drink brandy, rhum, gin, and local wines. drinking comes with our work. we had to sit through these people to build camaraderie and trust so we can implement our work.^__^

now i work in an office. i still drink occasionally with friends and i have better tolerance for alcohol now. i don't easily get drunk.
