Hey everyone, I'll try my best not to tell my life story in this post and cut to the chase as quickly as possible, I just want to give you the best understanding of my question. I have only recently discoverd the world of pick-up and it has dramaticly changed my life! Its helped me develop my inner confidence and in such a short time I've already developed a social circle of attractive fun girls that are begging me to come out with them more often.
I am completley confident and comfotable with going out and not drinking and having a good time. For health and wealth reasons not drinkinng can be obviously beneficial, and also impairing your judgment and missing oppurtunities. The only real problem is people NEGing you for not drinking I ussualy neg them back and make them laugh if I can but I'd love to get some tips on going out and not drinking like non-alcoholic drinks/water...etc without lowering your value but raising it!! I'm going to assume that other guys out there have had this problem? I'd love to know some tips or any one who can share their experience in this area?

I either ignore their stupid comments, or reply back with " I've been on atibiotics" or now days I say it's something because of training related, I'm in decent shape now, often get asked to I swim etc, so I just waffle crap, because really it's small talk, so don't take it seriously!

I wouldn't make stuff up just to give them an understandable reason that you know isn't true as it will indirectly make you feel like you have to lie to fit in with them.

Also if people are with you and they know you don't drink because it is a conscious decision, but they hear you lying because you don't want to say the real reason. Surely that lowers value and has a more negative impact.

I understand the problem as you can't say "I don't drink because I'm running game on the girls in here" but you could still say something that is similar and true, something that will make you feel like you believe in why you don't drink "I do drink, just not as much as you, I end up making a fool of myself"

Something like that could make them laugh and agree with you, could be taken as a put down makeing you look more dominant. But more importantly it is something you believe and stand by.

Good luck may man!

I like the post, but the part I bolded out IMO, is extremely DLV.

Sometimes I just say "I don't need to drink all the time to have fun"

Yeah you are right but it does depend on how it is said and why. I meant it to be said a bit cocky, as if your almost poking fun at them because they drink until they make fools of themselves. I didn't want it to be put across as it being said like I can't drink because I always make a fool of my self.

I hope you understand what I'm saying, always harder to put it across over the internet.

Thanks man and I liked your line, it works and is simple

Hey just for the record just to give back practical feedback, tonight was the second time I've been out without drinking and it's been suprisingly fine in terms of feeling comfort (Confidence) and if anything I feel more confident, and any comments I've gotten about not drinking, I've been able to use them as toys of conversation and play with them easier, And just focusing on personal comfort and a relaxed state of mind wherever I am helps alot in terms of just general conversation.
But Still I've got soo much work to do to get where I want to be with women. Cheers guys.
