I rarely drink, but I don't make a point of mentioning it to people on nights out, mostly because they demand to ask why, like I'm some sort of nutter.
I live in the sticks, so I'm normally driving and that's the main reason. But, other than that, I'm just not really mad on the taste of alcohol (I'll drink beer/ale or wine but I'm not massively enamoured with it). Plus even just a couple of drinks can make me feel a bit sick/rough, so it seems pointless to drink something I don't particularly like the taste of and feel a bit dodgy on just to please other people.
I enjoy nights out, I just don't need to drink to enjoy them. That said, I don't look down my nose at people who do want to drink - to each their own!
