why do ppl who drink find it so hard to accept that some people simply do not want to drink?

she's an alcoholic, and on some level she knows it's a problem but on another level she's in denial. So if you too drink like an alcoholic, then she feels better about drinking like an alcoholic.

Your girlfriend is a devil worshipper and through ritual black magic she has seen that God has endowed you with special powers to save humanity. Alcohol is a poison. Do not drink!!! Also, don't smoke, use drugs (especially marijuana), drink tap water or eat processed food. Be a vegetarian and go organic. Most of all, never ever ever masturbate, and I wouldn't recommend having sex with your girlfriend. She obviously wants you dead. Do all these things, and be cool and your super powers will start to develop.

Ask her to test herself if she can go a whole week without drinking.

She cannot. The longest she can go is one day although she doesnt drink to excess everyday. She'll usually have about 3 bottles of beer a day. Says she just enjoys it because it's fun and good to chill with a drink and it doesnt mean she is an alcoholic

Why do some people like carrots others don't? What a stupid fucking question no wonder you don't drink you were born one brain cell away from not breathing

Some people are allergic to alcohol. Would they make someone with a peanut allergy eat peanuts? Or say"it's just one peanut"?

Agree with you op.

Ok so you and your girlfriend don't share a daily common interest or passion.

Cool.

Do you have any idea how sad it is to sit all by yourself because the person you love won't sit next to you or join you in your hobby?

How many years has she been all alone?

One day she will grow tired of waiting for you, and then...

Maybe she will just leave. Maybe she will kill herself. Maybe she will kill you. Maybe she will lash out on someone else.

Eventually she will tire of being alone.

Some people are wired to need alcohol to function or relax.
You are not compatible OP.
It's genetic.....find someone else more suited to you.

Some people like others to share in their misery or enjoy watching others crash and burn. Don't let them have their way.

Normal people who drink responsibly and aren't alcohols would respect your choices.

Because we like to sing the songs that remind us of the good times; we sings the songs that remind us of the better times.

They would be the alcoholics in the crowd.

Just tell them Trump has never had an alcoholic drink and you admire that a lot.

people who drink everyday and need to drink everyday are either alky's or next to it.

I came from a family of drinkers and the first sign of being an alcoholic is drinking everyday.

It's simple. When you're drunk, you're at a mental and physical disadvantage. Sober people will also remember all the stupid shit you say or do. With all that, they can't feel as relaxed as if everybody was drunk.

I've always found it curious. I was addicted to alcohol for years, but I preferred to drink alone. I didn't like drunk or sober company back then. Now that I don't drink anymore, it is kind of annoying when people try to make me drink just because they feel insecure in the company of a sober person.

How big are these bottles?

12oz,22 oz,32 oz,40 oz?

If it's 12 oz that's not a whole lot,
I used to drink a 1.75 liter of rum ever 5days and now I drink none not even beer. And I went cold turkey when I stopped it's not pleasant but totally doable same goes for cigarettes.

Point being ,
It can be worse and still not be a lost cause and also you may be making a mountain out of a molehill.

I can sympathize about the family pressuring drinking, my kin are alkies that like to get drunk and argue so they think everyone being three sheets to the wind is "level playing field" as they would put it after a few drinks have cause their speech to simplify.
I like to stand when around them and not drink, that way they have more than one thing to complain/pressure about.
Then make them feel like they've won by sitting a little bit later on and the drinking will often become less of a priority.

I've heard my father say that while drinking a mixed drink

My ex-husband was like that. He had to be an expert on everything and that meant his "drinks" too. He needed to know the best wines, the best whiskeys and Scotches. He spent a fortune keeping that cabinet stocked, and it was never-ending because he drank it, too. He spent several hundred a month on his "hobby" - sometimes that on just one bottle of Scotch. According to him, he only drank to relax and it was an expected hobby for a real man in a man's business.

I was a great disappointment to him because I drink very little - a glass of Pinot Noir on the weekend or a beer when I've been out mowing in the heat. He went out of his way to cultivate drinker friends who would share his hobby. He praised women who could drink and hold their hard liquor - as opposed to me, who he treated derisively because I refused it. He tried regularly to get me to drink and he ended up deciding he would just have affairs with these women friends and co-workers who drink instead. He was full of excuses - like it was expected of him to have this knowledge in his line of business.

The worse thing he did was to encourage our son to drink at an early age. He wanted his son to be cool and knowledgeable, and talked himself into believing that if he drank with his son at home that drinking would be no big deal and he would never turn into an alcoholic! We argued regularly on this and I finally gave up because he got so mean and nasty. Well, my son is now in his mid-twenties and is also heavy drinker.

People who love alcohol to that extent don't see that they have a problem - they think the problem is with you. Many marriages break up because of it. My ex could actually stop drinking for a week or two at a time. He said he did that occassionally to prove he was not an alcoholic. Whatever - he was still a nasty man when he drank too much and that was every night he was home (he travelled for work and was only home about 3 nights a week). Anyway, my advice to you is to run!!!

I used to drink wine almost every day. Until I found out that the Greek word in the Bible means do not start the process of drinking. I then realized that no amount of alcohol is ok. I prayed to God to forgive me and give me strength to stop...and He did! Have not drank alcohol for over 6 months.
No need or desire, not even around friends who do drink.

It is a matter of knowing who you will serve, God or the devil.

Forgot to say, a glass of wine or two after duties at home were done.
Before bed watching tv. Not to get drunk but to relax and sleep better.

I sleep great and feel great now. Was I a borderline drunk, even though I was not drunk? According to God, I was. Drunk at the first taste.

So I quit, and all who drink can too if they really want to.

Are you a born again or AA?

I ask because I was a heavy drinker and quit cold turkey when I got tired of waking up on the floor and not remembering most days/nights, I wasn't serving the devil by drinking but I was hurting myself and being an ahole to friends and family so I stopped, god didn't stop me or give me any extra power than he already does through freewill.

You'll be back on the bottle in no time if you don't take responsibility for you, good or bad you are the one in the drivers seat. That said evil does exist in this world and so does possession but they are not an excuse or the reason for the lack of will power.

God bless

I don't drink at all, never did outside of the usual trying it in the usual kid ways, HATED it, hated my brothers football kegers, hated what I saw it do my potential via my mothers neglect.

It's incredibly lonely. I started staying home in my teens, stayed home though most of my life to avoid drunks and the consequences of relationships with drinkers.

Most people in society drink, that's in most societies as well. At least they have weed in some places now.

booze is a drug just like opiods and other crap like that

addiction happens unfortunately more often than people admit with booze

parents these days who are drinkers train there children to be just like them - if that is all the child has ever seen then drinking will be everything to them to the exclusion of most other things - the perpetual need to get "fucked up"

If she cannot see that there is life without booze then I would probably move on.
Unless she breaks free of the booze she probably wont ever come out of the training she received from her family - I'm sorry for that, alcoholism (whether new or old) is an extremely hard addiction to deal with and I will be praying for you both <3

Alcohol is freaking nasty. I'd rather hang out with My little cochin rooster than sit around drinking. Hell even His screeching in My ear is preferable to the nasty taste of whisky.

Alcohol is as deadly and opiates. Misery loves company. If you don't join them it makes them have to look at themselves and recognize their issue. Its easier to find people that are in the same place.

Thanks, yeah you basically just summed up how it is

Thing is i wouldn't mind if she just drank and left me alone but it's the constant harassing of me to join her and then when i say no she asks again and again and again and when i still say no she implies i am boring, it's strange that i don't want to drink etc. I just don't see the appeal in drinking everyday as if it's water. I'd rather have a drink on an occasion like a birthday or a wedding and stay sober the rest of the year.

she's gonna kill herself because her bf doesn't like to drink? That's next level alcoholism
