This. Wow @op I see so many of your awesome posts on here, but this is for real. Stay in your f****** lane people. No means no in all situations.

Nit-picking here. But we don't need your entire inventory. Water is my drink of choice and that seems to offend a lot of people.

My standard line is that I’m allergic to alcohol; every time I drink I break out in felonies.

If someone asks me why, my answer is “cause I’m an alcoholic” lol. But ya, “why” is a dumb d*** thing to say

Makes me think of my ex. Me: "I don't drink." Them: "Why" Me: "My entire family has a history of alcoholism, drug addiction, depression and suicide, I'm genetically predisposed to abuse it." Them: "You need to learn to have a drink and relax." At that point I should had realized this person just didn't respect me and my boundaries at all and just ended being involved with them in any shape at all.

I just ask a guest if I can get them something to drink and let them choose alcoholic or nonalcoholic

The conversation should end at "I don't want to drink". It's not hard.

Alcohol is the only drug you have to explain why you're not using. Recently found that out after I stopped drinking
