I recently faced the similar situation. On some health reasons I wasn't allowed to dring alcohol for some time and exactly in this period there was a wedding of my best friend. Now all her relatives are sure that I'm pregnant Which is totally untrue... Sometimes people come to strange conclusions, so just don't pay attention and do what you consider the best for yourself.

This question was originally asked on the main Food and Drink forum, but then got moved here. Riddle solved.

PS. I'm one of those pesky non-drinkers.

I do not find Tweety Bird to be sexy. You need to drink some booze, lose your inhibitions and actually post a pic of your real self, put ya money where your over-worked mouth is.

I rarely do. Can take it or leave it. I drink maybe once or twice a year, sipping a glass of Bailey's at Thanksgiving or something. My husband doesn't drink at all.

i don't 'not' drink because of religious reasons (although i think that's how it started), but instead because of the health reasons and because i simply have no desire to do so now.

Is anyone in the same boat? How do you respond to this question when asked?
I know lots of people who don't drink and no one inundates them with rude and stupid questions.

Drinking is not a default healthy thing to do. A better question would be, "Why DO you drink?"

I mean, how many people go around asking people, "So, how come you don't smoke?"

It's the same freakin' thing.

I drink. I like the taste of scotch and beer. And I love champagne...love how the bubbles and taste feel so festive.

I try to get smashed whenever possible. That reminds me, I have to call some mates from work to see if they are available to get blasted with me this weekend.
