So I am Straight Edge and very proud of it but almost none of my friends are and that is no big deal, after all it is my life not theirs. Well last week one of my non edge friends made the comment to my boyfriend that if he drank he would have more fun. This has bothered me for a week now and I just can’t let it go. Why would someone not drinking make you have less fun? I just can’t fatham a reason as to why he said this, I mean of that group of friends me and my bf are the only non drinkers but I didn’t know we were cramping your style. If anything you make our night (along with other drinkers) not fun because when you drink you get all depressed and then drink some more and make it much more worse, but would I ever go to you and tell you that no. I do get worried when my friends drink and drive but that is just something that I have always worried about since I was a kid and in a very bad accident with a drunk driver.
I don’t need to drink to have fun, and I thought ALL of my friends understood that and respected that but I guess my lifestyle is offending certain people and for that I am not sorry in the least bit. I honestly can say that even though you are an alcholic I am still friends with you so I thought the understanding was there but I guess not.
Maybe I should just give up what I believe in and start drinking and doing coke and oh maybe some heroine, would that make it better. Damn while I am at it do you want me to become repulican, join the military, and believe in god too.
Sorry I am just really pissed about this as I have never said “Oh man if you were edge you would be so much more fun”
