I have a friend whose bf broke up with her. I don't know the exact reasons but she told me she wishes she could drink because he told her she was less enjoyable to go out with because she doesn't drink. My friend doesn't really like going out anyway but she's still pretty fun to be around so I thought that was a very ahole thing to say. I have gone out with people who didn't drink and thought they were fine. I dislike the social pressure to drink so I never pressure anyone if they don't want to drink. It seems like unless the person is on meds, it's socially unacceptable to not drink when everybody else is. Does the person not drinking really have an impact on how much fun you have anyway?
Only drinkers think sober people are less fun because they act like dopes when they're drunk. Obviously this is why drinkers and drug users tend to be attracted to one another. Of course at first, a drunk may appear "funny" or gregarious until you get to know them. Then you see it interferes with life and meaningful relationships.
As people get older and wiser, they realize that they want to socialize with others who don't act that way so he did her a favor.
"Party girls" are only good for "fun" not for marriage or other serious relationships.
And you (she) can't change people so she should learn this now and seek out her own kind. Non-drinkers or extremely conservative occasional "drinkers" like occasionally having something with dinner or whatnot.
The guy should be asking himself what makes him so "fun"?
People with more than three drinks in them lose IQ points and are, in general, something of a problem. A glass or two of wine with dinner is fine. Even a mixed drink. But drunk is a bore! If I go on a date with someone and they don't have a drink limit which they impose on themselves, I'll take a cab home.
Smoking weed is also a function of sobriety; enough is too much.

What exactly does this mean? Are you saying smoking weed = sobriety? Or that any amount of weed is too much? Very confusing statement.
I agree about people who drink too much, btw, and personally can't stand being around anyone who's DRUNK. But as a pot smoker myself, I don't think the two compare at ALL. It's unlikely you'd even know I had smoked recently, unless I had waaaay more than necessary... even then, most stoned people are at least quieter than your typical drunk. LOL
It's not a big deal in certain situations but it's awkward in activities that are drinking oriented.
For example, having a get together or going to a sporting event is no big deal if not everyone drinks. Going to a bar is awkward.
It's like going to a buffet with someone who can't eat.

No, pot smoking is actually fine by me, if you must know. I didn't elaborate (or express it very well). I'd a thousand times rather hang out with someone who is slightly stoned versus someone who drinks.
