if you have a problem with it, like the shakes in the morning, can't sleep without a drink, wake up next to scary women, then yeah, you got a problem. If you function fine then no. America recently (after lets say 1970) took to a very puritan approach to drinking. It was no longer acceptable to go out and have a few beers. The view shifted from the pub being a social gathering point to a place to hide from life. Once the ban cigarettes, booze will be next.

I'll tell you after I finish my drink.

Bottoms up!!!! Have a shot for me!

I think your girlfriend called you an alcoholic and you are trying to find a reasonable argument. Good luck buddy!

** Apparently Marie (below) is your girlfriend.... sorry buddy!!

If you have to have a drink everyday then I would say you were an alcoholic no matter if is a few or many. See if you can go for a week or two without drinking, this will answer your question.

if you have like one or two everyday but can still control yourself then no you're not an alcoholic, but if you get drunk every night and are extremely dependent on the alcohol then yes you are.

Yes that's considered an alcoholic. A few drinks a night usually in time turns into alot of drinks.

Well, considering the fact that many doctors reccomend a glass or two of wine every day to help with preventing heart disease, I think it it's wrong to pidgeon-hole someone for drinking every day.
The degree to which one drinks every day and his or her ability to say 'no' after a couple is a better barometer.

Seems fine to me! You wanna hang out some night??!! ;P

Not really. A few drinks never hurt

No necessarily. I do and I am not.

However, if you had to ask, there is a good chance that you are.

.

No, you're not an alcoholic. In fact, it's been proven that a bit of alcohol a day can help your bloodflow and keep you less tense and stressed. Most recommend a glass of red wine, but in all actuality, a glass of stout is just as good if not better.

If it has ever caused negative consequences in your life and you still continue to drink you may be an alcoholic. Most "normal social drinkers" do not ask themself that question.
