Why do we do that? Numb life’s most joyous, most vulnerable most powerful experiences with alcohol – why do we do that?

Grey’s Anatomy, Jackson Avery, Season 15, Episode 1

I’m not one of those people and was never really into drinking alcohol. And I’m sorry to say, I don’t enjoy being around people when they drink, him especially. I don’t like the smell of alcohol and become nauseous just at the smell. So I don’t enjoy being in a place surrounded by it, surrounded by other people drinking. I don’t enjoy babysitting drunk people. I don’t enjoy drinking and I prefer to be around people who don’t like to drink either.

So maybe that’s also a sign we shouldn’t be together. Maybe that means I do go after the guy that doesn’t drink either.
