Oh, ditto. As a non-drinker, pressure to drink = annoying and frustrating. (I remember getting horribly ribbed by two volunteer tour guides from a French youth hostel because I wouldn't eat meat at the restaurant they took us to or drink the wine.)
It seems to be getting better as I get older, though. Maybe it's the circles I move in?
Or maybe just that no-one believes that I'm sober anymore? (On three different occassions, I've had people believe that I'd been drinking heavily. No, just natural exuberance, I guess. Plus, being *around* people who've been drinking, one tends to relax as they do. Passive-drinking, as it were.)
