No, I have never gotten drunk im 17 & even though i shouldnt be drinking i just drink but dont get drunk thats better than nothin.. so yea

why????????????????????????

Answer 1

thats exactly why i drink because im the same way...people trip out on me cause when i dont drink i'll be super quiet and wont really talk or anything but when i drink a couple beers...im everyones best friend...its just the way it makes you feel. It makes you not really care what people think. Its a good thing...just dont drink and drive and dont drink a bunch!  

Answer 2

drinking causes you to lose your inhibitions.  it gives you something in common with the other people at the party as well, enabling you to feel like you are part of the group rather than the sober outsider.  be very careful with this, though!

Answer 3

Because alcohol alters your perception.

Drinking releases endorphins and clouds your mind which in turn makes you act like you normally would not.

It's great!

Answer 4

thats the whole point of drinkin, well for me it is!  

Answer 5

It's probably one of two things. The first is that you might be a light weight and while one beer doesn't get you drunk it gets you buzzed and whenever people get buzzed it's natural to be more friendly and outgoing.

If you don't think that's it it might just be because your state of mind changes a little bit when you drink whether you're drunk, buzzed, or still sober.You might seem cold hearted without it because you're afraid people won't completely accept or like you. And when you drink it kind of puts in the back of your mind that you can be more friendly and that if anyone does say anything or doesn't accept you it's kind of like a back up wear you can blame it on that. Those are just guesses by me and I might very well be extremely wrong about both. But either way while you don't need to drink to have a good time, don't feel like you need to explain yourself that you're drinking at 17.  Most people that age do and it's perfectly normal.

Answer 6

Inhibitions decrease proportionally to the amount of alcohol consumed.  It's that simple.  It also results in loss of judgment which is why you should not drive while intoxicated.
