Oh, good vodka isn't something that needs to be, or even should be, mixed (like gin). BUT, I'm sure this was not good vodka.

Good vodka does not need a mixer.

Do you think the same about scotch?
So simply adding a mixer makes you NOT an alcoholic?

Yeah I really like this girl otherwise and figure a few more dates shouldn't hurt.

Sounds like a plan. Only you can truly gage the situation.

A girl I met online and I have been on three dates. On our third date we decided to go see a movie. While we were watching it about 10 minutes in she pulled out a water bottle and started drinking it, no big deal I thought. But then she asked me if I wanted a drink and that her water bottle actually had vodka in it.

Now previously she had got a long Island ice tea on our date prior which I thought nothing of and asked me if I liked to drink to which I said now and then, and that was that.

Well during the movie she ended up drinking the whole bottle, though she can obviously handle her liquor because after the movie even though you could definitely smell alcohol on her she really didn't seem to be very affected by it. I drove us there and her to her place so she wasn't driving.

Well actually get along well and I realize putting vodka in a bottle isn't new but I did think it was odd to do for a third date. Do you think it's a big deal? Or nothing to worry about unless she drinks on every other date?
Yeah.

Binge drinking isn't unusual when people are young. They do it to blow off steam, get happy. A lot of times its situational, like at a party, not a daily problem. Lots of people have done it and then when they get a little older and settled in their ways, rarely do it again. Doesn't mean a person is an alcoholic.

Heavy drinkers are not necessarily alcoholics.

Totally. I send my kids to school with one of these every day.

Actually, it's not working out all that well...I'm considering sending one in for each teacher instead...I feel like they'd probably appreciate that tremendously.
