AS MOST OF YOU KNOW....I DON'T DRINK ALCOHOL.....ONCE IN A BLUE MOON
I WILL BUY "MYSELF" A "MOJITO" AT LULA....THEY TASTE SO GOOD....BUT THAT'S IT....

WHEN I GO TO A CLUB/BAR/LOUNGE.....ETC
WITH EITHER A DATE OR SOME FRIENDS.....THEY WILL ALL GO TO THE BAR,
BUY EACH OTHER "DRINKS" OVER AND OVER AGAIN....AND NOT ONE PERSON
WILL ASK ME IF I WANT TO DRINK SOMETHING AND KNOWING VERY WELL
THAT I DON'T DRINK ALCOHOL, THEY DON'T EVEN TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION
THAT I CAN DRINK OTHER THINGS.....

I EXPERIENCED THIS SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE SAYING ANYTHING......AND WHEN I FINALLY
SAID SOMETHING....ONLY 1 PERSON OUT OF THE GROUP WILL ON OCASSION
ASK ME IF I WANT A BOTTLED WATER....."ON OCASSION"

FOR THE RECORD....I ALSO DRINK:
COKE WITH SUGAR, OJ WITH CRANBERRY, GINGER ALE........NOT JUST H2O

.....I REALLY DON'T LIKE TO APPROACH THE BAR BY MYSELF....ESPECIALLY WHEN I AM AT THE CLUB
WITH "MEN"......IT JUST MAKES ME FEEL LIKE, "WOW.....THEY CAN'T EVEN BUY ME A DRINK.....
A NON ALCOHOLIC DRINK".......I'M THIRSTY TOO YOU KNOW!!! LOL

I'M BRINGING THIS UP.....BECUASE IT JUST RECENTLY HAPPENED AT STIR FOR COLO'S BDAY....

WE GOT THERE.....AND EVERYONE BOUGHT EACH OTHER BEERS AND ALCOHOL.....Y NADIE ME PREGUNTO
OR EVEN GOT ME A BOTTLED WATER OR SOMETHING.......I GUESS JUST OUT OF COURTESY.....

THIS REALLY BOTHERS ME......BECUASE I AM NOT USED TO IT AT ALL......IN THE PAST
I'VE ALWAYS GONE OUT WITH PEOPLE (DATES, GUY FRIENDS) WHO WILL AUTOMATICALLY
BUY ME A DRINK......EVEN IF I DIDN'T WANT IT......(ESPECIALLY MY ARGENTINIAN & ITALIAN FRIENDS)....

IT BOTHERS ME....MAYBE BECUASE I WAS EXPECTING THE GESTURE......AND DIDN'T GET IT....

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT THIS?? ANY SUGGESSTIONS??

SHOULD I JUST BUY MY OWN DRINKS?


(SERIOUS ANSWERS PLEASE) THANK U
