Do I have to drink at a party to have fun?!


Question:

Do I have to drink at a party to have fun?


Answers:
When I was a young girl at college my friends all told me that unless I carried around a drink no would think me fun. When I said that I didn't like to drink and didn't want the empty calories I was told - just ask for coke and pretend it is rum and coke or 7 up and act like it is a 7/7. I realized that I didn't HAVE to pretend my diet soft drink was anything other than what it was - people would accept me for who I am. So I rarely had a hard drink and I ALWAYS had fun and was the center of the party.

In other words, you do what you feel comfortable with. If you need to drink to have fun - you have issues. If your friends feel that drinking is necessary to have fun - THEY have issues. Having a drink or two isn't a bad thing if you can control your drinking and are not driving, but it is not the end all to being popular or having fun. Be yourself and just have a good time!

No. I rarely drink at parties and have a good time. It's fun making fun of stupid drunk people too. You can have a great time and not touch a drop of liquor!

no, I hate drinking at parties. I still have a great time

Have to?! Heck no, it's a party if you want to drink, then drink, if you don't, then don't. But if your nervous around people and wan't to ease that nervousness for a night, then a few drinks'll help.

No people drink at partys to loosen up.....More people are more ummm how do would you say like shy lolz so they do it as a relaxer but others just have that natural talking and flirty type personality lolz so No you don't have to drink unless you really wanted to......Good Luck With the party....

No. If you plan to drink then drink, but if you just there to have fun and hang out, enjoy yourself. No one can control you . You control yourself.

I dont' know about you, but I like to have a drink at a party because it does loosen me up. I am on the quiet side so a little alcohol never hurts. (if you are 21 of course)

No. You can have fun dancing andchatting with friends. When they drink alcoholic drinks you don't have to do the same. Have your favorite beverage in your hand and join them while they drink theirs. Just have fun. I usually drink apple juice at parties and just pretend it's wine... just to socialize a bit, hehe....

Not if you don't want to. I used to drink at all the parties I went to, because everyone else was doing it,and I would suffer the most horrendous hangover the next day! When I decided to stop, I also thought I would feel like a fish out of water, but actually, it's quite the opposite. It's kinda fun, watching a lot of others making idiots of themselves, and there are usually a few other people who don't drink. It is great to wake up the next day, being able to remember everything you did the previous night, as well as not feeling as if you left the party with someone else head, and feeling as sick as a dog!

Do you? you shouldnt have to

not at all........you will have a great time watching everyone else do stupid stuff and you will remember it all

no, i don't like to drink and still find ways of having fun at parties!
