[QUOTE= The point is, you don't have to drink unless you want to. I would ask why they care how much I drink and then tell them to mind their own business. If they continued, I'd just tell them to eff off and leave. Problem solved. Who wants to be around jerks like that anyway?[/QUOTE]
Completely agree! I remember hanging out with people when we were in our 30's (WAY past the college age drinking mentality) and there would always be that one person encouraging everyone to drink more, making fun of, or downright bullying anyone who didn't want to. After awhile I just got tired of it. Trying to explain that I wasn't going to have another drink because I DIDN'T WANT TO got me nowhere. The only solution for me was to quit going places where I knew these people were likely to be.
