Excuses for not drinking ALCOHOL ???

[JoNeS]

Currently I am on cycle and therefore I am not drinking any alcohol. When I get off cycle I plan on dieting down, and doing some modeling shoots, there fore no drinking for that. My question is, what do you give your friends as a reason for not drinking? My friends go out and drink almost every night, and I can't tell them why I won't drink. If I tell them cuz of Gear, thats just stupid. And if I tell them cuz I want to be shredded for modeling they'll think I'm cocky / have a big head. (especially the girls) So I want to know what all of you guys tell people when they ask you why aren't you drinking. I've used the whole I can't cuz im on medicine excuse, but I need some new better ones. thanks guys

I just tell them I don't like drinking (but I don't...so I'm not stretching anything by telling them that...) It comes down to priorities here...do you want to succeed in what you are doing (professionally), or do you want to go out and party it up...
(as you get older and older it becomes an easier choice )

Tell them you think you may have an ulcer since the last couple times you drank, you had severe pain. This should be good enough to get you through your cycle.

How old are you, that you don't have the balls to stand up to your friends man?!?! I mean STEP THE FUCK UP already. Be a man.

Your better off not saying anything and sipping on a cranberry juice all night, or club soda and lime. People will think your drinking and wont ask you any question.

Say you're on antibiotics for a chest infection or other illness. You're not supposed to drink when on them.

If your freinds aren't gonna ask too many questions, tell them a doctor prescribed you some mild steroids to help with an ankle injury or similar - apparantly this does happen.

I'm in the same boat, but I just tell them that drinking is bad for muscle growth - which it is - you don't have to tell them you're on juice.

Tell them that u are gonna be a professional model and you dont want to end up looking like them , Then laugh and point at their beer bellies.

exaactly what I was thinking......

 

[ripper2]

tell 'em to shut the fuck up

Prescription Medication is always a good bet. You can always say that you don't want to mess up your health.

 

[bowling ball nutz]

it only took me a few mornings of feeling like shit to stop doing that to my self, there are better choices ghb etc.. if u must go out

 

[genarr3]

I hope the steroids help you grow that spine you don't have.

 

[serbyte]

This is not an answer to your question but, its pretty funny.

Whenever a shotgirl comes up to me at a club i always tell her, "Sorry, I dont mix (rec.) drugs and alcohol"

It always gets a laugh out of anyone around me.

 

[badassy]

i am with genarr3..... i used to drink way too much.... and when i stopped i just told people that.... i don't like the person i become when i drink so i don't drink..... if they can't respect that then why are u talking to them..... my 2 cents

 

[princeton]

just tell them drinking is for the weak minded and you will not stoop to their low level.
Or you could tell them you dont want to drink. I do that all the time and it works great for me.

 

[The Terminator]

I hope the steroids help you grow that spine you don't have.

LMAO You just totally made my day with that one...

No beating around the bush from genarr

 

[monkey arms]

Bro, I feel your pain. I've been sober for over 2 years and you just have to get use to it people have a real problem with non-drinkers. I tell them I'm an alcoholic and the world is much safer when I'm sober.

 

[JoNeS]

For all of you who say I don't have the spine to tell off my friends..... fuck you all. I am 20 years old, and my best buddy just went through some trouble to get me an ID. Furthermore, before I got on cycle, and before I decided that I wanted to pursue modeling..... I used to drink all the time. People Just think its weird that I don't drink now. ...... and back to not telling people off... The 2 reasons I am not drinking, are reasons that I cannot give to people. (one is gear, and the other makes me seem like i'm better than other people) Every time i've said "no thx" or "im not drinking tonight" it is always followed up by a why? from someone. And yea my bro's know the real reason's why I'm not drinking right now.... but trying to explain it girls and not seeming like a pussy boy who is into his abs... is another story

 

[solidspine]

Your buddies don't sound like very good friends.

 

[calveless wonder]

lmao....

why do you care so much what they think?

If you're gonna do gear accept what comes along with it. even if you do care,it's not difficult to say "i just don't like alcohol anymore. too many bad experiences" or some bullshit like that.


genarr is right,If you're ashamed of something you want do for a career(or for yourself) that theres something wrong with that.

 

[The Terminator]

Your buddies don't sound like very good friends.

That's what I was thinking...
It sounds like you may benefit from hanging out with some friends who dont drink every night...

If they require an excuse then they don't sound like the best of friends anyway...

How old are you, that you don't have the balls to stand up to your friends man?!?! I mean STEP THE FUCK UP already. Be a man.

Exactly!

 

[Olsen Twins Banger]

not everyone understands being on juice is no big deal

my friends would flip out if they knew i juiced.

 

[eviction]

Exactly!

2nd that notion... MAN UP!!!!


if your friends pressur you to drink thats just childish. I was at the bar tonight, and it seems i get more respect when i tell everyone im not drinking because im driving. chicks dig it

 

[Riker29]

My question is, what do you give your friends as a reason for not drinking?

Uh, ... you aren't thirsty.

Drop the "peer pressure" BS. Tell them you don't want one. Period.

 

[MattRecc]

tell them to eat a dick. my friends want to hang out every night and just sit around and drink, so i either A.) dont go, or if they give me shit i just tell them to look at themselves (most of them are fat and completely out of shape, and for the most part do nothing with their lives). FUCK them. my true friends i can go out to a bar with or go somewhere and not have to drink all the time
