[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the PP who says that she talks about drinking all of the time, I want to ask:  Why do you do that?  Does it make you feel socially accepted?  Isn't that kind of childish?  What you are saying you do reminds me of being in high school or college and trying to "fit in" with people by pretending that you enjoy/do a lot of something when you really don't.  I don't understand why any adult would do this.  Do  you think that if you didn't drink at all or didn't talk about it that people wouldn't like you?   I hope that reading the comments on this thread will make  you see that your comments may make some people think that you have issues that you may not have.

I'm the pp you're referring to.  You know, honestly, I don't know why I do it?  maybe I need to do some soul searching.  But It's not that I pretend I enjoy something when I don't, I actually love having that glass of wine - And when I make those comments, they are sincere - I want to have that drink.  when I say I can't wait till 5 - it's the truth.  It's just when I get that drink, I enjoy sipping it, tasting it and nurturing it - I enjoy the act of relaxing with a glass of wine.  I don't enjoy getting drunk and I don't lie to my friends and say I want to get drunk.  I just make stupid comments like I mentioned.  And when I read this thread, it was a sort of "oh-oh" moment - making me wonder if I just talk about it way too much.

So, to answer your question (or comment) yes, reading the comments on this thread does make me see that my comments may make people see me  differently than I am.   [/quote]
