I’m dieting. I’m on some medication. Ah, just don’t like the taste. Got drunk one time and had a bad experience. I’m driving later. Someone I knew was an alcoholic. No thanks, ate something earlier and it’ll taste weird. But it’s not a shameful thing to just say no.
I am not opposed to drinking, but the prices for drinks at bars, restaurants and especially concerts are usually so high that I can’t justify the expense. So I usually volunteer to be the designated driver. If you tell people you’re the designated driver, no one will pressure you to drink, and you will probably get free soft drinks all night.
I don’t ever drink, not even one cup. I just don’t like it. I need to think better excuses than just saying plain “no”.
