Well, to start with this interesting topic; I was exposed to alcohol when I came to Pune for my
graduation, when I did go out for dinner with my friends or spent time at my friends'
houses and they'd have drinks and hookah. That was a time when I used to think
bad about people who drank. Then eventually I realized that I couldn’t
judge people based on that and today I do have many close friends who drink.
As I got more familiar with this place and this lifestyle, I saw
teenagers who drank out of their minds and felt a little embarrassed, some who
had done something while wasted and then regretted later. Some just do
it to fill up their social profile pages with photos of them and their friends
holding glasses of cocktails and beer bottles. They think it’s glamorous. Well,
it’s really not!
I won’t deny that drinking is not at all bad. But getting
addicted to it or making it just a glamorous habit could turn things bad.
Don’t get me wrong, I am no one to judge anyone by their
habits but when it comes to drugs, that is a big NO NO for me! And I just
can’t help but get this negative feeling about it and also about people who use
them.
I’ve heard about youngsters committing suicide after taking
drugs and experiencing hallucinations and many more negative things. So I could
never be in a relationship with a guy who uses them; in fact I even can’t be good
friends with them, it starts bothering me somewhere!
But at the end of the day, I'm never going to tell anyone
what to do unless it is affecting me in a negative way.
