Apparently, a lot of people like to consume alcohol during the early stages of a relationship.
Alcohol takes the edge off and helps get the ball rolling, so to speak.
I guess dating is so uncomfortable in the beginning we can't do it sober.
What would happen if we didn't date and drink? Maybe a lot of relationships wouldn't happen.
Perhaps it is sad, but true?

Please say you've read the hilarious Bausch &; Lomb study that proves that the more beer you drink, the more attractive members of the opposite sex appear.

Wow! I can't believe they got it down to a formula.
That's crazy.
I've been going out with someone for about 3 weeks now, and I find the only way to make it tolerable is to drink. I want to hang out as friends but I'm worried she wants more, so I just rip open a drink. It's a vicious cycle. The hangovers must stop haha!
pghcitiboy,
As a girl who has possibly been in that situation, I have to shake my head.
Do you really want to be friends with her? Or is it that you are hanging out with her to be polite? In other words, you can't say no to her.
Perhaps it is time to talk to her about what your relationship is. The truth might hurt her, but she'll get over it.
I guess I'm hanging out with her for the "friends with benefits" thing. But I'm just not into her. She is a good friend and I'm dreading the "I don't want anything serious" conversation. You are right though, I will have to talk to her. Thanks for the advice!
