I don't think people are hating you for your opinion. It's the fact that you're hating on a LOT of people simply because they drink alcohol. 1. Not all alcohol smells rancid. 2. Not everyone who drinks it loses control of themselves; not everyone drinks a lot of it at a time or in general. 3. The way you go about it, it sounds as if even if someone drinks a shot of alcohol around you you want nothing to do with them. If no one is asking/forcing you to drink, you shouldn't bash them for drinking.
Iâm sorry I donât want to harm myself with something 100% unnecessary. People here drink so much that even between themselves they admit that when they go out, they donât even have a good time with each other. They just drink till they donât know what theyâre doing anymore, till they vomit and till they pass out. Theyâre not responsible and have no respect because theyâre out super late and feel like they have the right to go screaming down the road, waking everybody up. And if someone gives them a warning even in a caring way, like âhey, Iâm worried about you, please donât drink so muchâ, they say they are not their parents. Thatâs not healthy for anyone. I have the right to choose the people I want to be around and I would rather stay away from people like this. Same with smokers, if that makes you feel any better. I donât want those habits near me. It bothers me. I donât need to feel even more excluded or to put myself in danger. Those are not the people I want to be with. I donât want to see people destroying themselves and others with these kind of thing. Because I know there will always be that one day when even the usally âresponsibleâ drinker will ignore their limits and thatâs nothing but trouble. I donât want to be near people who need to drink to change their personality, because that can happen even someone isnât necessarily drunk. That doesnât solve anything. I just stay away, okay? Itâs not like I give them a lecture, I just distance myself. I donât go out calling them names for the choices theyâve made, but Iâm not forced to deal with it either. Iâm polite about it, like, I never said to anyone things like âI donât like you because you drinkâ, I just donât go and interact with those people. I donât like it, but I donât insult people. Honestly, itâs their problem. I already have enough health problems, so I donât need to create more for myself. Seeing people waste their health like that bothers me and that wonât change. Thatâs how I feel. I was being honest in that post, Iâm not a liar. Different things bother different people, right? I donât really care how much someone drinks, but no, I donât want to be there when they drink or if they do it. Thatâs the best for myself and no, Iâm not being selfish, Iâm actually worried about myself for once. If it makes me uncomfortable, if I donât like it, I donât have to deal with it. I wonât ask anyone to change either. I do what I want, they do what they want, and everyone goes their separate ways. Easy. And trust me, I can accept lots of things, but this is one of the exceptions. Itâs not a question of maturity either, as if kids werenât almost born knowing all of these things. Iâm not a child for wanting to distance myself from alcohol or sexual themes (Iâm asexual). Both make me feel uncomfortable. For me, thatâs what matters the most. I have to protect myself from the things that make me feel bad and if I have to leave this account and the game, Iâm doing it. I already said so, so thereâs no need to be like this. My opinion will remain the same, no matter what you say.
