is it boring if someone doesn’t drink/smoke?
3.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. To me yes , cuz I like to drink and smoke on occasion , I have dated girls ‘ that didn’t like to drink or smoke and it turned into a fucking nightmare , because we didn’t see eye to eye on things and it turned into resentments and arguments about who is right or wrong, so I prefer meeting a girl that likes to drink and smoke on occasion with me or a girl that is acceptive of me drinking and smoking. I consider myself a very honest person and I usually lay everything on the table to her right from the beginning letting her know who I am and what I enjoy , she can either take it or leave it , So I prefer a girl that doesn’t mind me drinking or smoking that likes to drink and smoke herself that can just unwind and relax and enjoy each others company’s getting buzzed together , The more in common I have with a girl , the better it seems to be , because we see eye to eye on a lot of things , when you are with someone that you don’t see eye to eye with on a lot of things , those relationships usually don’t last and you both end up butting heads like crazy , I don’t need any of that drama in my life what so ever , I been there and done it. So I prefer a girl that wants to bring happiness into my life , not misery the only time I would want her to step in os if I was getting carried away with drinking and smoking and fucking my life up , But if she starts bitching that I am have a few beers on a Friday night relaxing after a week of work , There’s the door , don’t let it hit ya in the ass on the way out

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yHell no. Of course not. Clean women are considered higher quality and men will much more likely see them as relationship material.
Ladies most of you are naturally attractive in your natural state. But many high value guys will disqualify you if you choose to do the following:
- Smoking. Especially if you don’t care about quitting.
- Excessive drinking. Most people don’t care if you do this occasionally but heavy drinking is a different story.
- Drugs. Most people will forgive past experimentation or maybe some pot once in a blue moon. But consistent drug use is a serious problem.
- Tattoos especially highly visible tattoos. Some people make mistakes when they are young. But women who get inked up everywhere are a turn off to most men.
- Dying your hair unnatural colors (and often). Women who do this are usually making some sort of political statement. You want to be a hipster, fine. But if you do this often then many high value guys will (quietly) lose interest.
- Multiple piercings and/or piercings outside normal areas. This is similar to hair dying. Most guys won’t say anything about it (they can’t especially nowadays) but they will quietly get turned off.
Anyway that’s not to say you can’t do all of the above. I believe in freedom of choice. But guys have the freedom to choose who they want to get a relationship vs. who they don’t. If you want to land someone decent this isn’t going to help.

Opinion Owner+1 y@modeunae I try not to hold someone to a higher standard then I hold myself to. I’m no saint. For example I was much heavier drinker in my 20s and early 30s. But nowadays I have all but given it up. I have also done other things I’m not proud of. But that’s all in my past.
But it’s people who don’t give a sh*t about improving themselves that I can’t stand. It’s this “freedom through defiance” some modern women have I just can’t stand.
It isn’t “freedom” to treat your body like shit and desecrate it. There are just so many women out there who destroy their natural beauty just to be rebellious.- +1 y
That is true. There are just so many women out there who destroy their natural beauty. In fact, I'd say this is the majority of modern women, not just like 68 per cent of them.
As for holding people to standards, it depends because a girl being of a certain standard-- I'll give an example: Let's say she smokes. I smoke (but I don't inhale). If a girl smokes and thinks I'll take her seriously with her smoking self, then she's joking. I believe there's differences between men and women, and there are certain things a woman can do that look normal, but odd for a man to do and vice-versa. I believe there are certain things that are only okay for women to do, and men to do. However-- if a girl wants to smoke and all this rotten shit-- she can do it, but it doesn't mean all support it. I'll just continue to frown and shake my head at her behaviour and deal with her appropriately; not like she's some sweet girl who doesn't do these things.
Opinion Owner+1 y@modeunae yep. But I don’t expect to land someone who is better than me (weighing ALL factors) and women shouldn’t either.
The thing is many guys will pump and dump women with trashy characteristics (if they are otherwise physically attractive). Not saying that’s right. But still if a woman wants to get a relationship with a high value guy she needs to be on par herself. And it’s EASIER for women to be on par.
They just need to AVOID doing stupid crap like I mentioned above. Men on the other-hand have a whole slew of things they need to do the requires direct action to be high value (be confident, make good money, be interesting, etc) .
Opinion Owner+1 y@DaveJord everybody has their vices and I am no exception. But it’s people “who don’t give a shit” and don’t care about improving themselves I can’t stand.
Opinion Owner+1 y@DaveJord i meant to say “clean cut” vs. “clean”.
I almost never drink and don’t smoke. But I got other vices. One was so serious I joined a anon program to give it up. So I can relate with vices.
But people who don’t want to give it up but at the same time judge other people are their vices are what bother me.
Opinion Owner+1 y@DaveJord no worries 👍
- +1 y
Ja, but I DO say it's right that it's right that men 'pump and dump' women who have trashy characteristics. What does she expect? To be treated like a princess that kept herself and kept herself out of trouble? You're jokin', bitch.
You smoke and were out at the clubs last night.
Opinion Owner+1 y@modeunae i used to think the same thing about trashy women.
But you know what they REALLY need? To be completely ignored. Attention even “pump and dump” attention still gives them a poisonous sugar high. They usually get more embittered and then turn around to become radical feminists in attempt to brainwash young women into thinking their lifestyle is “freedom” or some insanity.
But women who don’t get any attention including f boy attention usually start doing what they needed to do all along: question their personal choices and make better decisions.- +1 y
I get what you're saying and sometimes I think the same thing, too. It can depend on the day, sometimes. But at the end of the day, a whore-woman will learn her lesson. She was whoring around in her youth, instead of finding the high-value man to take care of her and to have his children? Then you get what you get. But at the same time, there's always some simp who will rescue her at the end. 41-- old as hell, menopausing and having deep revelations about life and life as a woman, but some fool comes along and rubs her back.
It's stupid, man. Sometimes, I wish these women would just be ignored by all men and go to sleep crying every night. That's the only thing that'd fix them.
+1 yNo! Smoking is unattractive and disgusting no matter what gender.
Casual responsible drinking not ending in a state of intoxication is perfectly acceptable but drinking even in small amounts is not required to have a good time.
A good classy woman knows how to be fun without the use of drinking or drugs!
And a good classy woman also would know how to drink responsibly if she did choose to drink!

+1 yNo but they are considered trash if they do and so boring not worth dating and trouble not the good exciting kind!
One of the friends who does these things asked why she only gets losers we told her those are the reasons.
No one would seriously date her behaving as she does 😅.

I do not drink every often honestly, but one thing is for sure I do not drink alone. So yeah, having someone you can share a bottle of wine, or sip on a beer or two over a card game or at the bar... it's nice honestly. You do not have to drink to get drunk.
Honestly, it hard to sit and drink with a romantic interest that is not drinking, you always feel like they are judging you.

80 Reply3.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. Hell no that's not boring I've never seen a woman drink smoke before after she drinks it what's happened where's all the smoke go
No she's not boring at all I want to meet that girl10 Reply988 opinions shared on Dating topic. I'll let you in one something.
No one likes drinking or drinker, smoking or smokers.
What humans enjoy is animalistic and loose behavior. Mainly sex
So if you're capable of "letting loose" without any drink or smoke you will never be boring even with a juice box in your hand
Of course how you define "fun and intersting" is also subjective and might not appeal to everyone. So keep that in mind.

+1 yI was with an edgy emo girl that smoked cigarettes... the sex was wild.
Drinking? I kinda like having wine with my partners, in moderation of course..
Drinking too much?:interesting but not for me... so drunk girls tend to become obnoxious and inconsiderate, huge turn off.
Knew a drunk in college that would become the devil spawn, walked up to my buddy and broke his nose for absolutely no reason (I know this because when we asked her why, she said no reason I just felt like it). She was so proud of herself and her friends cheered her on, disgusting.20 Reply2.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. The answer is no.
But there is a point here, if I see a girl who smokes or vapes I know right away she's not going to be someone who makes a big deal out of been unhealthy and which I am. So hence that works for me.
It tells what their personality is like right off the bat unlike someone who don't, because then you have to ya know ask them what their views are on it etc etc then you find out they are godly and wouldn't ever touch a guy who has took some form of drug lol. Or you find out she's cool with it or has some concerns but it's not a deal breaker or would be in cases etc
But this is what I mean you can't just tell right away, unless they do that act themselves.02 Reply- +1 y
Basically I know once they are smoking or getting drunk I can assume they aren't a woman who's going to judge or say things that are just women shaming or whatever else views that are toxic to me.
Someone who thinks women need to be classy or proper bs. And men need to be men whatever that means.
+1 yit gives you a certain badge that those who don’t drink or smoke will not have. its usually a sense of experience, like you’ve been through some tough spots in your time here on earth and drinking/smoking helps you to put aside your emotions and enjoy yourself with others maybe who have similar experiences as you do. its like, for example… those who have been through some tough spots in life and turn to god to help ease their troubles and have the church to serve as a community full of people with similar experiences as them. it has nothing to do with being boring, it just means you belong to a different group of like minded individuals

+1 yI’ve only been called boring by those who aren’t strong enough to quit drinking/smoking or by the ones looking to peer pressure others into their bad habit. Calling me boring for not drinking/smoking isn’t going to make me pick up the habit just to interest those specific people. Misery loves company
50 Reply If a girl drinks or smokes-- she evaporates any potential interest I could've had in taking her seriously. She looks low quality doing those things, including having tattoos.
It's low-quality shit when it comes to women. A girl who doesn't do those things is superior.

Are you serious?
Why would not drinking make someone boring? Is their personality so non existent that they can only laugh or have a fun conversation if she has alcohol? That's a huge red flag.
Smoking? How does that make you fun? It makes you smell like smoke but where does the not smoking become "boring"?

+1 ya smoke or a drink is something to do after a blowjob if you think about it... i know there's intercourse and that's something to do afterwards... but eventually you'll just learn to give more blowjobs and have more intercourse... i used to smoke and drink both were social reasons then it got too expensive.
10 Reply 2K opinions shared on Dating topic. No, I dislike both so if she does neither thats a massive plus but if she likes an occasional drink or two that's fine with me to as long as she doesn't expect me to partake. The fun comes from what we do do, deep conversations, quality time together, enjoying our hobbies, etc.

but I actually don't relate drinking/smoking directly to how "fun or boring" someone is or it isn't40 Reply 2.4K opinions shared on Dating topic. Not at all.
Smoking is a huge red flag. It makes you look stupid.
With all of the health risks, the smell, the cost, it just makes you look like you are good at making poor life choices.
An occasional drink isn't any big deal, but you can still be boring to be with.
Drinking too much isn't all that awesome either.
10 ReplyIt only would become an issue for me if they told me to stop. Never been with a woman who doesn't drink, have with women who don't smoke. Never been a problem.
Better for that to be out in the open though from the start that in no way are you going to stop. Doesn't matter how pretty you are or how fantastic your body is. I ain't giving up my smokes or drink for anyone lol
They're not boring as long as they don't try to change you.

+1 yI don't think drinking or smoking has anything to do with if a person is boring or not. I've met people who did not do either that we're not boring. People also shouldn't feel obligated to do anything I do or do not do. All they need to do is be respectful engaged and open minded to be considered not boring.
00 Reply984 opinions shared on Dating topic. If you don't have a histrionic personality, being boring isn't really a measure for anything. If you don't poison your body it's possible you will appear for some or another self-destructive individual boring, but their interest isn't much worth due their pathological attitude.
00 Reply927 opinions shared on Dating topic. From my point of view because I have never liked alcohol and don't drink it, it was the guys that I was dating that felt like a lush in front of me, and it made them uncomfortable that I didn't drink too. So, I guess they moved on to other women that liked getting drunk with them. You know, to have the same nasty habits they did.
00 ReplyI would like to think I’m not boring. I don’t do either, and I’ll tell you… I’m the one still up for having a good time long after my friends who get tired, whiny or are total B’s when we go out and they drink. Sorry to throw my other lady friends under the bus, but it happens every time.

Anonymous(25-29)+1 yNo, it's not accurate to label someone as boring to based on whether they drink or smoke. People have diverse interests and lifestyles, and choosing not to drink or smoke doesn't determine someone's level of excitement or engagement in other activities.

I assume you never partake in anything that could harm your body… does that mean you walk around with a pure oxygen device, dont use a cell phone, surround yourself with nothing that slowly emits toxics? Ever eat or drink anything stored in plastic? Plastics release parabins, parabins cause estrogen development, estrogen decreases testosterone. Feel better to judge others, can't fathom a world beyond judging others to feel better about yourself? You are not perfect, no one is, its foolish and limiting to think so.
