Girlfriend problem, Anyone have any advice?

Well I could see why she would feel that way having said that you personally rather she didn't drink. So yeah, I could see the hesitance in inviting you to a social gathering if I intended indulged in the festivities and you had a problem with it. It would make her uncomfortable, and everyone else. I could see ones concern about ones drinking if they couldn't control it, but if that's not the case, if your girlfriend was always a social drinker, and it doesn't cause problems, maybe you should ask "Yourself" if you want a woman that drinks occasionally, because, there is nothing wrong with that. Talk to her about it, if you don't drink, that's your prerogative, your right. But if your significant other, chooses to have a cocktail on occasion, and maintains, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Good Luck

If you love her then you will accept her for who she is. If she likes to drink then that is her right, until it turns nasty. If she is a sloppy drunk and can't handle her alcohol then that is another story. But, if you love her and she can handle a drink or two then it shouldn't bother you unless it gets out of control. Tell her how you feel about the party thing. Say like I don't mind you having a drink or two but if you start acting weird or stupid then I am going to leave. Just go with her once and see how she acts and if she gets out of control then maybe you should talk it out. Try to accept her for what she likes if you love her.

You should fine a girl that doesn't do those kinda of crap. I'm a girl and I don't smoke or drink. But. Yea

You have your reasons for not drinking and its your choice and right not too. Drinking occasionally and responsibly is ok.
I think you have great remorse connected with alcohol - but remember everyone is different.

You need to tell her WHY you don't like it. What reasons do you have. Are they legit or from personal past. Also. If this is something you are dead set against then one of you have to make the choice on what's more important.

I come form a family of alcoholics and have to control drinking very carefully. Just figure out WHY she feels the need to drink. It may help. Not all drinkers are alcoholics.
Good Luck

How does she behave when she has been drinking? If it just relaxes her and lets her unwind, don't take that away from her. If she turns into the neighborhood bicycle every time she drinks. THEN you should be concerned, yes.

I have had experience with all types of drinking behavior. The best level I found was a few drinks here or there when at a social function, enough to relax and be more sociable (not worrying so much about how conversation will be received). It's no fun to be at a party where you feel uncomfortable.

I think your girlfriend wants you to support the idea she should be allowed to relax and unwind, and isn't worried so much that it happens to focus on the alcohol. She shouldn't prevent you from going to a party with her though. That sends the wrong signals to me. Excluding your significant-other from pleasurable experiences is the first sign you are headed toward the end of a relationship. Go to the party with her, let her have her drinks, and make sure to let her know you love spending time with her. If she drinks so much you can't handle it, maybe you should find someone who shares your opinion of drinking.

Good Luck.

I don't think you should push your personal decisions onto her. If she wants to drink, that's her right. If its out of hand drinking that's 1 thing, but as you make it sound, that's not the case. Sounds like your trying to control her and make her conform to what You feel is what You want.
If its that big of a problem, find someone more with your interests. If its not that big of a problem, then let it go.
