@izzythepush,
Quote:If you're using alcohol to cope you have to be careful that it doesn't get out of hand because it easily can. Not for me though, I have a hiatus hernia. If I drink too much I'm violently sick and can't stomach anything for two days, and I can't even think about drinking again for weeks. Probably just as well.
This is actually a good remark. I am Slav and we have some sort of superior genes here
. I am serious, I have had 1 litre of vodka, 0.5 litre of mead, 2 beers over less than 24 hours and I feel
nothing. No hangover, no headache, no upset stomach, when I look into mirror I see no recently drunk guy but the same mug I have seen on Fri evening. My motoric skill and reflexes are slightly worsened so I avoid situations that might be dangerous (such as traffic) but that is all. But above all all the painful feelings about pretty girls I met last week and I could feel their rejection are nothing but distant memories. And I feel balanced again.
Just sayin
.
I understand what you mean by not getting out of hand but I have full time job that I like a lot. By Sunday evening I must be fully sober. Simple as that.

Exactly. That is just what I am doing. I am trying to be nice and friend with as many girls I can (but only those I find worthy of my time, naturally) and I am not going to try anything to anybody. I don't know, everything I try it ends up bad. Simple explanation, something about my behavior is unattractive. Or maybe I am as a whole person. Dunno.

I respect you, and for this reason in the future I will avoid this topic whatsoever. At this point I am simply forced to mention that I am sickened. Dating, romance is all about confidence, positive approach, can do attitude and all I have received was avalanche of accusations and criticisms from people who came from questionable background. In other words, the very opposite of what the goal is and how to live a happy life. But this was also kinda good experience - I have never met such person in real life, which means I was lucky. And I should be grateful for that, life could be much worse...
Thank you for your attention
