Don't worry, OP, there are lots of people who don't drink. Bonus: They tend to have more money to spend because they don't blow it on bars and drunken purchases.

I'm only half-kidding about the last part.

Well I never drank or smoked until I turned 21. I always had the belief that alchohol of any kind tasted disgusting and smoking was just a big No-No. Then I got a little taste of what being drunk can do to you, and I guess the love/hate relationship began. Back then my body could handle drinking every night, without a need for a recovery period. But now that a little older, its harder and harder to recover, so I cant and dont want to do it anymore. I hope to believe that as people get older, the necessity to be under some kind of influence lessens, as other priorities increase. But of course, there will always be a % of people that drink no matter how much older they get. (When I say drink, I mean getting wasted. I still like to drink wine here and there, and when in the occasion, cocktails here and there.)

To answer your question, might not find that person at your age and environment, but you'll meet someone that fits you as you perfectly. Just look through the blurriness and you'll see..

23, never drink, smoke, or drug of any sort.

I think people from the general "college" age range tend to drink a lot more heavily, then things quiet down a lot. I isolated myself from a number of social experiences due to distaste for all of the above, and while I don't regret it, I think I may have done things differently a second time around.

I think I generally mind how substances alter someone's personality, but as people have matured past drinking exclusively to get wasted, I really don't mind in the slightest when someone has a drink or two over a night. Smoking will never stop smelling bad.

No smoking or drugs here, and I am just a bit confused on what constitutes drinking.

I have had some wine, but not really anything else, never been drunk.
