I don't like people that drink but man it's hard to find girls that don't.

When evaluating whether or not to have any kind of relationship with anyone, always ask yourself, "Is this the kind of person that I want to become? Is this the kind of person that will help me to become the person I want to be and to lead the kind of life I want to live?"
It seems like overkill, I know, but when you sleep with dogs, you wake up with fleas. You've gotta choose the folks with whom you surround yourself very carefully. There's a thing called guilt by association, and although it's unfair, it still happens. You may or may not be young, but y'know, I look back on my youth and can see the effects on my adult life from every relationship I've ever had.

No you shouldn't lower your standards just to date a girl that drinks,and why date one if you don't like anyone who drinks anyway, your not who you are if your just going to change for someone stick with your standards there's plenty of girl's who don't drink out their for you i'm sure just have to keep trying.

There is nothing wrong with a girl that drinks, if anything they are more open and more fun. I don't get why it would be lowering ur standards. get with the times, if u are looking for that girl that stays home cleans, cooks and doesn't drink, u will be looking for a while good luck

There is nothing wrong with drinking alcoholic beverages. The problem is when people drink them to excess. I don't think its fair not to date someone just because they do. As long as the person is responisble about their drinking and its social and not an addiction, there should not be a problem. I don't see it as lowering your standards. You still can choose whether you will drink or not drink, and hopefully your girl will understand and respect that.

I do not think you need to lower your standards to get a date.
Aren't there girls who have an occasional drink around the holidays but other then that, they do not drink?

Many girls, as well as boys, don't drink. I personally couldn't date someone who did, because when people drink they become someone else. So I'd suggest on not lowering your standards in this case...but i guess it just depends on how much you like her

No, you'll become a drinker yourself after you hang around with her. Get some nice girls from a church or social group or bible study committed to not drinking. Don't lower your own standards You will pick up the behavior yourself. Friends/Women have a strong influence on men. For encouragement listen to ttb.org.

It's not hard to find a girl who doesn't drink. You just haven't been looking in the right places.

If you consider it lowering your standards, then no, you should not. Nobody who you lower your standards for would want you. Who wants to be with someone who looks down on them and judges them for something so petty?
If you someday stop judging so much, and find that you have come to accept drinking and people who drink, then yes.

You should NEVER lower your standards for ANYONE. Be who you are, get what you want and don't settle for anything less! Its may take some more time in finding "The One" but it will pay off in the end.
