What Dee said! ^^^
I had "social drinks" maaaaaybe a handful of times. Of those handfuls, by the time I got home, I was primed for the REAL drinking to begin and usually ended up passed out on the couch.
Drinking in moderation sounds nice and all...but that's not how I drank - not even when I wanted to drink in moderation.
Now, I just don't even have the thought to drink anymore. It doesn't cross my mind. I'll take that over drinking in moderation and flirting with disaster any day.
