Last night my wife and I were meeting up with a friend of her's for dinner and she had me go get two bottles of Sidra,
When I came home she commented they were for me. I reminded her that I don't drink.
W: Well you need to drink something.
Me: Water will be fine.
W: You can't just drink water.
Me: Why not? It's liquid.
W: Because you need to drink something.
Rinse and repeat for about 20 minutes.
She actually angered me quite a bit. WTF is wrong with NOT drinking alcohol? I don't like the taste of alcohol so why would I drink it??
And why the HELL do people feel they have to push me to drink? We're in our 30's, it's not like we're in high school at someone's house whose parents are away. We're not kids anymore. I'm grown up and I can make my own decisions - I don't want to drink and water is fine. Please respect that.
Of course, when we get there they offer me a drink and I say "water is fine" and my wife pipes up "he needs to be the designated driver".
I get this at work outings and I just brush it off. i sometimes got it in college and I brushed it off.
But getting this from my WIFE whom I've ben married ot for over 8 years? What the hell!!
