I have tweeted extensively about being a non drinker in this alcohol soaked country all I will say is drinkers stop asking people why they don’t drink and just get their bloody Diet Coke it isn’t hard

yeah it is very similar to the reaction you get when you tell ppl you don't eat meat/fish etc

That doesn’t entitle you to know why someone doesn’t drink though. If you feel guilty they’re forking out more than their share just excuse them from the round. Also sometimes people do drink but just don’t feel like it that day, like drinking juice in a coffeeshop, to socialise.

I think many imagine their social life and see a huge void without alcohol so they want to know how and why

Like, if a close friend tells you of their own volition fine. But if they don’t, they probably don’t want you to know and you have no right to. My friend doesn’t because she doesn’t like the taste and so many people seem to think she has a duty to taste every drink on earth. Why?

Ime where I've watched this play out; yes. They infer some kind of judgment on themselves.

That’s exactly why they don’t like it when people don’t drink. Even when I was driving, people would try to get me to drink.

The other thing i've noticed is that you get a run down of the amount they've drank recently. Followed by 'but that's alright isn't it?' (usually it's a lot).
