people drink outside of bars, that's what barbeques, homes with decks, and patios are for. or my living room

i have dated a non-drinker once! that went...poorly

i tend to avoid crushing on non-smokers too bc in the end i will usually choose weed over them
― max, Monday, 2 July 2007 19:58 (seventeen years ago) link
So you're talking about frugal drinkers, more like.

i dated (for all intent and purpose) a non-drinker and it worked for a little bit. until she realized what she thought was quirky and charming behavior on my part may have been indicative of mild retardation or perhaps a traumatic brain injury. after that me getting a little tipsy wasn't so fun and me getting outright wasted at a friend's record release party was the final straw.

I was going to call max out for being vv harsh but then I thought about cigarettes and non-smokers and I knew what I had to do.

I can't stay in and watch cartoons, I'm too busy alienating people with my overly combative responses and (s)mothering ways while still managing (somehow!) never to have a date. It's a lot to juggle.
― Laurel, Monday, 2 July 2007 20:30 (seventeen years ago) link
overly combative responses and (s)mothering ways
every girl i've ever dated
― strongohulkington, Monday, 2 July 2007 20:31 (seventeen years ago) link
overly combative responses my idea of foreplay is picking fites. (sometimes) i rock. hah.
― tehresa, Monday, 2 July 2007 20:32 (seventeen years ago) link
weed = linear drug consumption ...

I don't even remember what I did last time :( I think it involved making out in the rain in front of a bodega?
― Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Monday, 2 July 2007 20:33 (seventeen years ago) link
Alcohol = linear
I've been the person who listens to friends vent enough lately that when I started to completely crack up a couple weeks ago I had to practically yell at them for them to pay attention. Maybe that no dating until mid-june resolution of mine would have worked better if I wasn't kind enough to act as a stress sponge for my friends during that time.

I don't think I've ever dated anyone who was at all mothering!

i could go for a couple of linears right now, i've been (illicit) drugless for a stretch and truthfully, it's boring the piss out of me.
