Is it rude or embarrassing to not order anything to drink at the pub/bar when I go out with friends and they are all drinking
I usually don’t drink, I don’t like it and don’t feel the need anymore. plus I don’t like beer which is what everyone is usually drinking, I don’t want to get a drink because then it looks weird and it’s too much money. Also I don’t even like soft drinks or sodas so to order just tap water feels even worse then to just sit with nothing. I feel like I’m being judged by the people I’m with or by the workers for not drinking and I fear they might think I think I’m better because I’m not drinking. Plus it feels very awkward to keep saying “nothing for me yet, thanks.” So is it rude to not order anything when I go to the pub with my friends or what else should I be doing. #relationships source
