Keep up the good work, Kate!

I think I am past the point where I would crack and give in. This may become a way of life.

[AnnieK]

Why did you start it Kate? Were you drinking too much? Or just fed up of drinking?

[Denver]

I've not been to a pub since the start of March

Yay me

I was thinking about it for a healthier lifestyle and then Stacey took her pledge of abstinence on the forum so I thought oh yes I will join her. Plus it was around the time I moved in with my boyfriend and he doesn't drink so that was another incentive Annie. X

I inspired her :fan:

And now ironically Stacey is drinking enough for two people :think:

Why does your bf not drink?

That’s it lt, there must be a rational explanation.

His point stands

[Matthew.]

Well done Kate :clap1:

[Crimson Dynamo]

Why did she say that?

I think it usually meant they were alkies

[Kate!]

I think it usually meant they were alkies

That doesn't even make sense. How can they be alkies if they don't drink eh?

[thesheriff443]

It’s more than likely true, when I say I don’t drink people look puzzled.

People that are tee total usually have had a drink problem than just not interested in drinking alcohol.

So a bit of stereotyping then. Its not the case always.

[thesheriff443]

It is an it isn’t, people who have had a drink problem and been to aa know they can’t even have one drink.

I have a lady friend who has been sober for nearly 16 years. The aa group she used had a coffee morning on a Tuesday in a garden centre.

[thesheriff443]

Same sort of thing if you are in a club drinking water people think you are pilling.

[Crimson Dynamo]

So a bit of stereotyping then. Its not the case always.

It's a one sentence saying. By definition it's a stereotype. It's the grain of truth that gives it life.

My grannies generation, before AA, thought (rightly) the drink would win in the end and you wouldn't as the partner
