The more embarrassing part, however, was when I would do searches for compatible dates. I would actually ELIMINATE anyone who said they didn't drink at all. Can you imaging that! Sickness loves sickness I suppose and I had convinced myself I needed a partner in crime.
I have done exactly the same.

I couldn't bear the idea of dating someone who didn't drink but I didn't want to date someone who drank everyday - that would mean they were an alcoholic.

I really was insane :rotfxko
