People spend tons and tons of money on something just to feel different for the day/night. But once the next day comes around, reality strikes back and we are left feeling crappy, aka a hangover. Even worse, society pushes through advertising on how "great" it is through luxurious marketing. When really, there is nothing about it that makes it awesome. This is only my honest opinion on this commodity. I respect everyone's opinion as each individual is different in their own unique way. It was always something I thought recently after being awakened to the world at large.
If this seems like a doomer post, I offer my sincere apologies as that was never my intention!
Good way to limit your selection to (former) alcoholics.
Not really. There are many people that don’t drink alcohol. I know quite a few. Not because they were alcoholics, because they choose not to. Like I said, an occasional beverage at a fancy restaurant or on New Year’s Eve, is not something I would expect a former alcoholic to do. When my husband was drinking, and I wanted him to stop, I stopped drinking. How can I expect somebody to quit drinking, if I’m drinking in front of them. The same stands, that if an occasional beverage at a special occasion, it’s OK with me. I would not be marrying a former alcoholic, to tempt them to do something that would cause them to relapse. Nor would I even marry a former alcoholic. I would not risk my future, knowing that a person could knowingly relapse. That would be the stupidest thing I could ever do. The point of my comment was, that although I have endured quite a bit of problems with people who drink alcohol, I would not begrudge others to drink it themselves. That’s all.
