I have no desire to ever drink alcohol, but I'm scared not drinking will make me not fit in and will make me not have friends. Addiction runs in my family, plus I hate not being in full control of myself, but I also don't want to be friendless forever

My family gets addicted to things super easy, so i'm scared about that, but i also get embarrassed over small mistakes and not being in full control of myself will probably result in my ending up embarrassed. But Im afraid I won't have friends as I get older bc of me not wanting to drink. My bf drinks and has never made a big deal about me not, but Im still worried

ya lots of people choose not to drink for their own reasons tbh and people are generally cool abt it and if they’re not it’s super weird. i feel like there whole “come on just drink don’t be a pussy dude 🙄🙄🙄” thing is a kinda dramatized sentiment that’s mostly on tv
