[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm Asian.  When I drink, my face gets flush and I can very quickly get sick.  Vomiting after 1/2 beer is no fun for anyone.  Then someone has to take me home.  And then I'm a wreck for the next 24 hours.  So now, some alcohol just isn't worth the side affects for me.

I'm not uptight at parties though and I'm always happy to stand in line with a friend and get a beverage for them.  When we go to things like Brew at the Zoo, DH thinks it's great since by default every time we go through the line, he gets 2.[/quote]

Are you me?  I swear I was gonna post this exact thing.  My DH is European and can drink like a fish. He has an in-built designated driver in me.

When people ask if I want a drink, I say no thank you. Then the inevitable "why" question, to which I have to then go into a lengthy explanation of what happens to me when I drink.  So, people, when someone says no thank you to a drink, just say, "OK, can I offer you something else?".  [/quote]
