Because I just don't. I can't explain it, but I don't. I guess part of the reason is that a lot of my drinking is social, just used as a way to unwind and hang out with friends. Also, most of my friends/co-workers/girlfriend drinks as much, if not more than me. It's also not something I do everyday, so I don't feel like I'm dependent on it.

And, I've been drinking since I was 18 and in college, and I'm doing pretty well (working full-time at a demanding job and also going to school), so I don't feel like it's impacting me in a negative way.
