Honestly, I’ve always found that if someone is uncomfortable with your sobriety (or even a person who “cuts back”) it’s because your doing so shines an unwelcome light on their own drinking habits.

People who don’t have an issue with alcohol could give a damn if others around them are drinking.

I know this because I used to be the person who challenged non-drinkers, said “they can’t be trusted” and would egg people to drink more. It’s weird to think back on now, but it’s probably because I found their sobriety (or even moderation) threatening. Really, anything that wasn’t a full embrace of my addiction seemed threatening.
