My first drinking party, i'm 15?!


Question: My first drinking party, i'm 15?
Ok so, I'm pretty smart but I don't have any real friends. I barely ever go to peoples houses but I still hang out with people at school. I basically know everyone in our school, plus I got elected for student council so people know me. It's just I've never had a girlfriend and I've never had a big social life. The ironic thing is, many people say I look hot - I just don't act the part. So anyway, I've recently started listening to Rap music, and it sounds OK but it's not my top choice. I just want to see what the big thing is about this music. It's alright and I accept it.

Next, my sister smokes, but i'm bent on telling my mom because I always rat out my sister. So I didn't because I wanted to build trust with my sister and also when I miss the bus my mom always throws a tantrum so my sister was willing to give me a ride as long as I didn't rat on her. Suddenly, just by accepting her behavior, I can "chill" with her friends.

So my popular twin sister, that many have called a slut (i never have), wants me to go with her to a drinking party. I told her I didn't want to get drunk, and all the people I've been friends with, but not really, want me to go. Plus there will be hot girls and the girl I've been crushing on for a while might be there!

In the end though I don't think I will go, its the weekend before the midterms and I know there will be a lot of temptation. So I'm asking you, should I keep up the strong integrity that I've already weakened by not telling my mom, or boost my popularity by getting drunk in front of everyone and people taking advantage of my drunkness? Plus i'm 15, so I could get arrested! I want to hear your opinions!

Answers:

Don't do it. You sound like you've got a good head on your shoulders.



Just go but don't drink, im 16 and i've not drank at drinking parties loads of times! Although it seems like your sister doesn't want you to rat her out so shes giving you a return favour, but i suppose from what it sounds, she actually does trust you!

Go but don't drink simple.



sounds like your sister just wants to get something on you so you can't rat her out. Me and my sisters played the same games.
I simply wouldn't go, tell her you need to study and maybe another time. OR go and don't drink. People your age look and act stupid when drunk, its good for some laughs



it looks like it's your chance to give your social life a headstart. you're tired of being an uptight a student, am i right? then just go. make some friends.



There are bigger problems in the world than this. Stopping acting like your life is so damn dramatic and care about someone else for once.



You could be arrested and you should have no more than one drink.



Don't go, i'm 15 and don't drink and, I'm glad i choose not to.



eh.. go.



go. live a little



well i say u shouldnt go. u should be yourself instead of trying to become more popular. :)



Hey, I'm your age & listen.
Pass your midterms, stay home and study.
When you're older having a highpaying job you're not going to be thinking I wish I went to the party. If you go and get involved with drinking and get addicted, ruin your grades you're going to regret it in the future.
& if you get arrested, you're going to ruin everything you've been working hard for.
You can meet a girlfriend later in your job or college.

So to finish it up, just stay home and study.
You'll see those people from the party when they're working for you in the future.



I'm 16 and started going to parties and stuff like that right when I turned 15, and what i have to say is I agree that it sounds like your sister wants something on you too, but what I dont completely agree with is the do it when you have a good paying job. Just because you do that kind of thing does not mean that you are throwing your life away, I'm the president of my school and have a 4.0 and run the local youth coucil of my town, but I still go out and drink...but I don't get so wasted I cant remember the night or what did... Ultimetly the choice is yours, do you think that with doing that you could stick with your responsibilities and not give up on school? But I say that everyone need a break to relax, stop stressing, and have some fun



go-you only have one life...live it
i dont think she was trying to get something on you, to be honest i think its because (im sorry) shes fed up maybe of being the sister of the nerdy kid? and wants you to seem like more fun to other people. one party isnt going to ruin your entire life, just dont go overboard on the alcohol cus otherwise you look like an idiot to others and it hurts in the morning also you wont remember it in the morning (if you have too muchos)
just have some fun, one timee?
