I don't drink, I'm 23 and I hate the taste and effects of alcohol.. I'd rather have the flu than puke my guts out at night and wake up with a hang over. My family and friends look at me weird when I decline drinks.. do you think it's weird?

It is not weird, as each individual person acquires a different taste for things that might or not be pleasant to others. In your case your choice is healthy and good.
On the other hand, it has been proven that a small dose of certain alcoholic beberages has a positive effect in our systems. The problem is when you over do it.
Personally, my taste is for beer, but from time to time I drink wine (2-3 times a year). I only drink up to two beers when I'm out with the family, but it is great to have more when you are doing your backyard. Then I can have 3-4 and have no effect of hang-over. Just a sweet relaxing feeling after a hard's day work.
Cheers!

It's quite unusual that you have never tried alcohol before, but I don't think you're missing anything. I used to drink a bit throughout my teens but then stopped drinking when I was about 18 because I was really skint and couldn't afford it. Then I just got out the habit of it, and haven't touched alcohol for the past decade. Try it if you're interested but there's not much point really. You're probably better off without it.

Not wierd at all. I am 32 and hardly drink. We always had bottles of liquor around as kids and my mother would give me sips from her cup and even then I didn't have a fondness for it. After college I grew to loathe beer after so many parties were kegs were comonplace. I usually have one or two drinks a year max. I have bottles of liquor catching dust at home and the only reason I have it is just in case I have guests. Alcohol in my opinion is an acquired taste.

No weirder than being 38 and not drinking! There's nothing wrong with not drinking, and I've never felt as if I had to drink just because all my friends do. I'm with you on the taste and the effects of alcohol. Like you, I just don't feel the need to drink... it's just not a big deal. So it's what YOU think that matters, not what your family and friends think. ღ♥ღ♥ღ

No. I don't drink. I pretty much don't like the taste, and after a few years working as a barman in a nightclub and seeing how people act under the influence of alachol, I know to just stay clear of it. Really, people are surprised when they find out how they, and other people act after a few drinks.
I'm 21 now, and don't drink, and have no intention of starting.

Well I'm kinda the same way. But there are certain acohols that I do like. Kahlua and Baileys irish cream taste great. Plus they don't contain a high volume of alcohol. I personally hate beer. Tastes like moose piss to me. Wines not that bad. I'm really not a hardcore drinker, so yea it's ok.

No, it's not weird. It's a personal choice. No one has the right to criticize you for declining a drink.
