I don't drink, but I met a nice man who (unfortunately) does.. coronas & vodka shots.
I am worried as to if he has "casual, social" drinking or addictive drinking?

it might, it depends, if the smell & taste of alcohol disgust you, you may not feel like kissing him, after he's had a few drinks. tell him that, and watch his reaction; most social drinkers don't have a problem not drinking, alcoholics on the other hand can't stop completely, no matter how much, or how little they drink. i am an alcoholic, 10 years sober, my fiance was a social drinker, but he stopped since we became involved. i don't have a problem with my friends drinking, i serve them wine, when they come for dinner. i work at a restaurant in close proximity to alcohol, it doesn't bother me at all. what i won't do, however, is have an intimate relationship, where i can't kiss my man, because i don't want to get the taste of alcohol in my system, setting off the craving.

Most "casual" drinkers have a beer or a glass of wine at dinner every once in a while. Coronas and vodka shots sounds more serious than "casual." If you are not a drinker, then my very best advice (been there, done that) is RUN as fast as you can, no matter how nice the man seems.

More than anything, I really think this depends on YOU and how tolerant you're going to be about this. If people drinking don't bother you, and he isn't a sloppy drunk who is drinking on a regular basis, then I don't think it would be a problem. At the time I met my husband and when we first got married, he drank, though he stopped a couple years after we were together for his own reasons. A lot of my friends drink. I never did, only because I just never cared for it or chose to but I also didn't have a problem with people who drank. Like I said, as long as he's not a sloppy drunk who is drinking tons on a regular basis, and as long as you don't have a problem with casual drinking, then as long as you care about him, I don't think it would be any problem at all. It never was with us.

first off, ask him. i was recently dating a guy who did not drink. Which for me was a problem. I work in the wine industry and it is not uncommon for me to have wine at social events, and/or receive wine as gifts from clients. I had to buy a whole wine fridge because I have so much wine and don't drink it fast enough. I really don't drink a lot mabye couple glass of wine a week. but with this one particular individual it was awkward. Most of what I do in my social life revolves around the wineries in Napa. And this person could not really relate to anything I talked about. I tried to not let it bother me but it did.

Probably won't work. It sounds as if he does have a drinking problem if you classify him as a "drinker".

It depends on how much he drank.

drinkers are not as wise as non-drinkers, can you handle that?
