( not sure how it is for hard core alcoholics) @Brunhilde a lot of women just lose the craving for a drink when pregnant, sure you might want a glass of wine here and there but getting sloshed is not remotely appealing.

Not so much when ordering drinks, because people are not often paying attention to what you've ordered, but when people would offer me drinks and I'd constantly be refusing. I know I got some funny looks (and religion would not be a common reason for abstaining where I was living) and I'm sure some people assumed I was a recovered alcoholic, or possibly pregnant. @blueblazes I worried about this too when I was not drinking (which was for about 3 years).

Nope, not even like teenagers or early twenties either. Haha, I know someone who had a guy dine and dash on their first date. Nope, not even like teenagers or early twenties either.

They are too busy drinking themselves. @blueblazes As someone who’s been straight for five years now, I can assure you that people are not assuming anything about why you’re not drinking at all.

Except for the drinking part. I could never give that up. I mean, I guess if I got accidentally knocked up and liked whoever was to blame for it enough to want to ride that out I'd quit. Probably not totally, but only having one a week is basically "not drinking" to me. This sounds pretty much about how I do money. Except for the drinking part. I could never give that up.
