RE: The Beverage Outcast - I never thought what I DON'T drink could make me awkward, but think again!

in #life7 years ago

Interesting observation. I'm following you for sure.

Your experience is quite unique. A friend of mine for example, is allergic to Fruits. Yes, Fruits!!! He doesn't eat ANY fruit. Not even Orange or Mango. Could you imagine? Now think how awkward his life would be around ordinary humans or when passing by a fruit shop. But I get you. Alcohol is totally understandable. But once in a while wouldn't hurt, correct! Coffee is a great catalyst when it comes to socializing. Or tea too for that matter.

Thanks for the share.

Thanks @beingnaveed! I AM thankful that I'm not allergic to these things... I humanly could consume them without repercussions (except the usual drunken ones) if I had the desire, the desire just isn't present for me lol Being allergic to fruit would be hard! Especially since people try to persuade people to "eat more fruit!" to be healthier, and they might just assume your friend doesn't want to be healthy, or is being lazy, when in reality - he's allergic! Back off people! I actually have met one or two people who are allergic to wheat-y beers or something in beers.

I understand where you're coming from :)

And the desire I believe is that's not external. For something to be a desire, it has to be internal and you are one lucky person to have it not even present lol.
