    I tell people I drink socially, but I'm pretty social. :)

    I believe it cleanses my innards. So yes.

    I don't drink a whole lot. A typical month for me would be 3-4 beers, 2-3 glasses of wine, and MAYBE 1-2 shots of vodka or tequila. There are months that I don't drink at all. It just varies.

    The drinks I make myself taste much much better than those at a bar or restaurant. If I get tipsy I'm already at home. One fifth of wine or Jack Daniels cost less than three cocktails from the bar. I'd love to go out drinking every once in a while but all my buddies have passed away, so I stay home and drink the good stuff with dinner.

    Very rarely. If I drink I usually prefer at home. Less risks involved, and no unwanted hook ups.

    I don't drink like I used to, but how much varies anymore. Some weeks I might have a few beers or more each day. Then I might not drink anything for a month or more.

    Yes! I drink vodka soda with a squeeze of lime...not bad on the calories at all! I can have a couple of drinks for less than 200 calories. From time to time I'll be bad and have some beer or wine. I don't think you should deprive yourself of anything you're going to miss, or you'll end up succumbing and binging. Just plan ahead and work it in! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

    When on vacation, on a cruise ( haven't done that for four or five years) I'd have a rum and fruit type mixed drink every couple of days. When NOT on vacation, I'll have an occaisonal glug of rum or Irish cream in my coffee, about twice a month. That's it.

    I'll go out with my friends to bars and clubs for the social aspect, but I don't drink. I get a bad allergic type reaction from alcohol.

    I used to. There was a dive locally called the Paradise that had live bands on fridays and saturdays and if you got there before 8pm you could avoid the cover. I spent at least 2 days a week there. Now i can't risk drinking much thanks to medications.

    Very occasionally I go out for dinner and have a glass of wine or a beer with my meal. Sometimes I have two drinks when I am out on a date with my husband. But, my husband does not drink (he has never had a drink ever in his life), he has dessert and a soda. If I drink at home I buy a small half sized bottle of wine, since it's just for me and I don't drink a lot. Sometimes I don't drink at all. I did not drink at all for a decade or more.

    A lot of times I'll end up offering to DD so that I can still go out, but also not take in any extra calories from drinking. But I looooove tequila. So, usually going out to eat Mexican food once a week turns into 5-7 ritas and I'm barefoot.. So stick to being the driver. You are forced not to drink for everyone's safety and everyone thinks you're super nice! Haha if they only knew I was really just being vain!

    How often do you drink alcohol?

    This is a completely different question than the thread title.

    To answer the title: NEVER! I do not ever "go out drinking."

    How often do I drink alcohol? Occasionally, maybe once twice a month.
    It was meant to be like that.

    Why?
    This a million times over. I'll posit right now that it was not actually meant to be that way—since they're conflicting ideas—and it was easier to say that than "Oh **** I accidentally phrased it wrong in the title. Whoops." Even though that's not hard to say. It happens. Too bad you can't edit thread titles. But then I'd start things like, "This guy kicked me in the nuts because I couldn't lift 'enough'" and then change it to "What do you think about adoption?" or "My nephew wants me to take him camping".

    But that would be rather hilarious.

    Barely anymore. Tons in my 20's. Now I despise the bar scene. Much rather hit up a pub if I'm going out anyway. :)
