What do you tell friends/loved ones?

[jchh]

I know there was an earlier thread on roomates, but in particular what do yall tell friends/loved ones. As a young guy Im finding it tough to balance a social life with my AAS usage. I still want to be social but its tough to turn down a beer from a buddy or last weekend shots from a cute little brunnette. Just wondering if anyone else has this problem and how are you dealing with it. The "m not drinking for health reasons" doesnt get me to far with this crowd.

Thanks guys-

ive never been big of a drinker. most of my friends do drink, and i usually have a soda. ill joke on myself about it with them but there cool with it. i guess it depends on the people.plus i have more tattooes on me then usually the whole crowd combined twice over so i get a pass from friends for being a sissy for my not drinking .:p i actually hate the taste of beer.:eek: but i can see it being hard turning down a drink especially from some hot girl.

I just tell them "I don't drink", I'm usually looked at as odd not because I don't drink, but because of eating healthy. I went to a cookout with my wife and her side of the family recently, while they were pigging out on fried foods and junk I was eating tuna on whole wheat and egg whites. My brother in law said "if I looked like you, I would eat whatever I wanted". I said "you do eat whatever you want, that's why you don't look like me". :)

ow yer dident think about that. your right that does make sence

[small one]

I think that is a very complex question. Depends on your relationship with your friends, and your family as to if they really need to know about your steroid use. your self-control and resistance to peer pressure, as well as your own acceptable risk levels also come into play. If they dont need to know about your steroid use dont tell them. Just dont drink alcohol. Don't have unprotected sex. this is your life. live it on purpose!!

[tatteredxangelx]

i tell em "if you wannabe the boss, you gotta shoot the sauce!" :p

[Cupcakes99]

i dunt drink alot of people look at me strange , but i feel better about myself in the end while there slobbing away drunk.

[Morrison]

legally I can't even buy alcohol yet, but everyone I went to high school with and/or nearly everyone my age that I'm friends with now all get trashed every weekend and I'm not about that at all, while they're out partying I'm spending my time in the gym, now I'll go out to eat with them or go to movies or bowling or clubs to dance and rarely ever drink, usually every couple months but that's it and all of my friends see me as "the bodybuilder" or if they train and compete as I do, then I'm a "fellow bodybuilder" so they understand the sport and the diet and don't even ask questions when I say nah I'm good and turn down a drink

[xxxcaptjackxxx]

i used to drink 1 fifth and a half a day......and as Hulk Smash mentioned ealier i have more tattoos then a bar full of 300 college kids.......

I stopped drinking that much 2 years ago and slowly lowered it to only drinking on the weekends and now i have only had maybe to drinks in over a year.....just something i got used too. My friends used to give me shit all the time when i first stopped drinking but now they dont even bother inviteing me out to the bars with them. If i dont go i wont drink, if i go i know ill drink....so i just stay home and chill with the old lady.

[jchh]

Ive never been much of a drinker like Morrison said Id rather be lifting. But it is tough to just stay in, esp with this new found sex drive. The ASS Thread will only do so many times before you gotta go out and get the real thing.

Being a non drinker in a crowd of drinkers can be a difficult situation.

I had slowed down my drinking as I passed into the mid- late 30's and quit altogether at 40. I come from a long line of alcoholics, and don't want to go down that path. I miss good beer. Going out and being social in a bar can drag on, when everyone else is getting tipsy, laughing at truly stupid jokes for hours on end, falling down, talking trash and blowing money.

Some people will make it their mission to get you to drink when they discover that you aren't. Encouraging peer pressure, flirting, telling you that you need to "Relax", etc. over and over.. All this is, is their own want to drag you down to their own unhappy level in a twisted attempt to make themselves better. It can be tough to work through a persistent drunk's incessant attempts.

Think of a few honest responses ahead of time, so you won't be caught off guard and fumble your way into drinking. Getting a non alcoholic drink in a glass that looks like a regular drink is a somewhat stealthy way to dodge the issue, until someone orders a round... Again, think ahead and don't thumb in. Your reasons to drink or not drink are your own choices. Don't allow others to choose for you.

You have to make something up. Tell them you are on antibiotics for an infection and can't drink for a while. Tell them the doctor said your liver is bad and you can't drink. Be creative.

I totally agree with ya on the food, I am sitting here laughing. Cause i use to be that guy Ate anything he wanted managed to get to wicked 300lbs. and that wasnt healthy lol Too Funny!

If you are with a girl, say that drinking makes you impotent...say that one makes you go for hours, one too many makes you go floppy....If she wants to bone ya, you know how much ya gonna drink... :D

just take a stand and say you dont drink...or if you do drink have 1-2 drinks and stop.

[sting18]

Don't have unprotected sex. this is your life. live it on purpose!!

Just out of curiosity why wouldn't you have unprotected sex on gear? or is this a joke?

[cpesloco]

I own a bar and everyday i have to turn down drinks. My regular college crowd bust my balls. the antibiotics story only works for so long. then i told then i was detoxing. Now i just tell them i drank to much the night before and need to recover. Really sucks cause we have beer pong tables and i love to play.

[lola26]

stop being pussys and giving into peer pressure. boozing is for the weak.

[NASTIE1]

Im simply on a growth hormone and no of coarse its not a steroid lol. Hey it works for me.

[mxcx]

Tell them you dont drink and tel them to fuck off if they dont like it......you need to stand up and be your own person.

[Aussiemuscle]

ohhhh do you have a bar in Thailand?????? I love that whole ping pong ball and beer bottle thing...
:D

[zznwhs]

It's pretty messed up that nowadays when you tell someone that you don't drink. the first thing they think is "hmmmmm....he must be an alcoholic." lol. The best thing to do if you are going out and you don't want to drink....drive to the club or bar. When you tell someone " I'm not drinking tonight because I'm driving" or " I've already had a couple drinks and that is my limit when I'm driving." people generally understand this.

[cpesloco]

:D

yea the winner gets $2 suck offs from thai shemales. we keep them under the table so you don't have to leave your seat...that's service!

[irish2003]

are there any ghb alternatives that actually work out there?

"I would pretend to drink the beer!!! Appear that you are swiggin' that beer" Say, "I've got to go take a piss, beer in hand, pour most of it out into the pisser. Never order the bottles because your date can see the level of beer through the glass! Always get cans! And never pour all of it out because she might reach over and grab your beer for a swallow, for the hell of it, so keep some in it. Last but not least, get some paper towels or napkins, beer in hand, paper in the other hand, put the beer under the table or where ever you might be, whenever you can, drench the paper towels or napkins with the beer and always keep the beer in your hand. Plus she's going to kiss you sometime doing the night and sex too! So go to restroom, or nonchalantly take a swig, swish it around your mouth so you'll have "beer breath" spit it out! Try to keep the "beer breath" because when she "French kisses" and you don't taste like beer you're screwed! Act like you're intoxicated from the beers that you have drunk. When you get to her place or your's, You can then do some serious f#@%ing"

[DEADBOLT]

hahaha! definatley not smart! lol

[Jays-gonna-get-huge]

at the bar order a diet coke or water and toss out the straw....nobody will be able to tell... they'll think your drinking a mixed drink or something hard on the rocks.... just don't mention it and it may not even come up ......

or if you do have to lie/make an excuse my usual one is:

"Yeah I can't drink I have to be up at the crack of dawn and ________ it sucks!"......... fill in the blank with something responsible people do

[Ano]

hahaha! definatley not smart! lol

"Dude, are you referring to the post by Ano? It came from a magazine, BOZO!" LMAO

[DEADBOLT]

o.k.! IM really sorry for insulting your magazine quote, but i think rather than being a limp dick, pussy and pouring your fuckin beer in your napkin, where you would have a giant mound of soggy liquered, beer soaked ass wipe under your table, you could man up and say you not drinking. lol im sorry! Im not trying to be an ass, but could you imagine. A gorgeous busty blond turns to her equally attractive friend and says '' hey you see the guy at the table with the soggy T.P. he's mine!''

[rossalini]

im not sure whats become of this thread because i didnt read it all...but back to the topic, i told my friends and my girlfriend the truth. Some people are cooler about it than others. Whether people accept it or not doesnt really matter. I am what i am. Noone can change this beast ive become. And if they try ill beat their fuckin' ass:D j/k but the only one i lied to is my mama... i know she knows but i dont tell her because i dont want her to worry about me. Sometimes i wish i wouldnt have told anybody. I think if i had it to do over again i wouldnt tell a soul.

[Krom]

I don't tell anyone accept for my friends who already juice.

[Noir]

no one knows
I'm not gonna tell anyone especially my friends.
people usually dont have any idea what steroids are, so it's not their bussines
if my friends ask what do I take, I usually say vitamins, amino acids, protein
