Why do people drink?

Why do people feel the need to drink to have a fun time?

  • i really dont get it. first of all alcohol in my opinon was one of the worst things i had ever tasted.. the taste and smell is just awful! everytime i smell that stuff i just get queasy and it makes me wanna throw up. i was riding the local bus one day and this creepy guy(he was drunk) had the worst beer breath...he sat next to me and put his arm around me and i pushed him away cuz he smell just awful...he said he was trying to get to know me and blabbering to everyone on the bus that i was his girl and stuff. i just felt so embarassed that i just wanna crawl under a rock and stay there. thats why i dont be around people when their drunk cuz they just act so silly...lol. why do people drink it so much? it just taste really really bad! my birthday is in a few days and my friends wanna throw me a house party(which inclues alchohol ewwww....) i told them i dont drink but they say i need to stop being so uptight and let loose for once in my life. i have drinked before and it was a wine cooler but i can still taste the bitterness of the alcohol though. but a wine cooler is probably all i will ever drink incuding cocnut malibu! yummy!:) i have never gotten drunk before but i have felt a little light headed from drinking before... couldnt they make it taste better or at least smell better?! im okay without that stuff but people act like they cant have any fun without that stuff. why is that? whats your opinions?

  • Answer:

    People drink for the feeling. Although alcohol is not addictive unlike cigarettes it can be mentally addicting meaning people crave the feeling. Drinking could taste bad at first but the more you drink it the more you body adapts to it untill it will taste like a sweet tea:)

It's like any drug, human produced or not Chemical reactions in our body effect us in different ways, But if you've never been drunk or high I really wouldn't be afraid to say it's like stepping into another world. A childlike fantasy

basically if you consume enough alcohol you feel happier, more out going and at ease. the flavor barely matters. its all about the effect on the brain. under the influence of alcohol you are more open to new things and more friendly, and enjoy things more. so basically its the mental effects, not flavor. unless your a wine taster.

i can relate to what you are saying. a lot of drinks taste disgusting. not into drinking just for the hell of it myself, i would suggest drinking something fruity like smirnoff ice green apple. it is fizzy and doesnt have that pungent alcohol taste. as for peer pressure and drinking just for the hell of it, leave that to those who actually need it. if you dont want to drink then dont. dont let others force you into doing something you dont want to do.
