Why do you Party (Drugs, Alcohol, Smoke, s*x, etc)?

Question

I guess I would be considered a Straight Edge because I abstain from all drugs including alcohol and cigs. I also abstain from premarital s*x. But what I've always wanted to know is WHY do people party and put these horrible toxins (including s*x) into their bodies? I've been to some messed up parties and all I see when I look around are a bunch of idiots hurting themselves and others. You get sick, you lose control, you hurt others. I DON'T UNDERSTAND! I know this is REALLY judgmental, but I really don't understand. I wish drugs didn't exist so people wouldn't be able to do these things, but the irony is that I will probably die from a drunk driving idiot. Anyway, sorry about my rant and really, why do you party?

Answer 4

lol yeah I agree! I dont do any of that stuff either. But I think people do like drugs/drink for an escape (deal with issues), they try to fit in, they think its normal, or their just bored. And same with the partying for an escape and out of boredoem.  

Answer 5

It's really simple. I don't.

Answer 6

I don't party or do drugs or drink alcohol.

But I do have s*x with my boyfriend. We are consenting adults and we waited until senior year to start. (We've been together since the 8th grade)

Answer 7

Well sweetie it is because u must be an  christian what diffrence dose it make if u wait til u get married 2 have s*x??  All mariage is rlly is a stupid vow that usually ends up geting broke anyway!! I would rather have pre marital s*x then marry someone and act like half the couples these days!! lol and i drink and smoke marijuana. I used to do cocaine acid shrooms pills and all that **** . Like i said now i drink and smoke weed I agree on some terms that drugs really take a toll on ur body. But u can find a way to quit and start to rebuild what you dammaged. it just seems like we grew up diffrent you know. I was raised in church but then after some experiences i changed my mind and decided what i believe in. but thats my long comment if u like it cool if not whatever!

Answer 8

The only thinngs I do is Party and drink other than that I don't do it. I don't want to end up as a drugy or something worst thing in life. I have a future ahead of me. So what if I drink and party. I don't do drugs, no s*x, no smoking, and more. But drinking I think is not that bad. I don't do it everyday, but like once a week or something its fine.

Answer 9

Well for one thing not all the people who drink do it till they pass out. Some may have a few drinks with the food and that's about it. But also there are people who have predisposition to being alcoholic, and these people would be better off not trying.

Drugs is a different story, and i think most people who do strong drugs (cocaine, meth) are suicidal and that's just their way of doing it. It is pretty sad, but there are many people out there who are so unhappy, that they would rather be dead.

Smoke, well it really does not have such immediate health effects. Most people i know smoke for one of the two reasons:

1. They want to fit in with someone who smokes

2. They want to show off as "strong"

s*x?

Oh well...

1. Possibly they just listen to their instincts, and this could be quite strong. And they may not like masturbation :)))

2. Maybe they are not that religious... you mentioned premarital s*x, so does this imply you are ok with postmarital s*x? If so, maybe you should ask yourself what are the reasons that make s*x OK after marriage, and these are probably the reasons these other people think it is OK before marriage also...
