Don't worry, there are girls in college who aren't alcoholics.  You'll find some, I managed to.  Same with other friends to hang out with, too.  Plus, they won't think you're a sissy, they'll think you're cautious if they're smart.

Female lecturers don't count.

You are a sissy for setting your own limits? I'm a sissy because I'm the only one on our floor that doesn't drink. Dude...that's been me EVERY SEMESTER I'VE BEEN IN COLLEGE and people don't think I'm a sissy.  They will, however, think you're a sissy if you seem embarrassed about not drinking.  Be yourself, and don't be upset about it.

Be yourself man. Though warning, (though you probably knew this) there's a lot of socializing through drinking in college. Seems hurr durr but really took me by surprise. At least stay instead of leaving? They wont care if you dont really want to. Least they shouldn't. I'm afraid of what will happen if I'm caught at a party where everyone is drinking.

Well, I suppose that is a risk.
Jon hit it on the nail man, and I agree. Been at tons of parties where I just hung around.
Most people really are cool if you just say "nah dont really drink" but don't be ashamed of it indeed.

Also people don't think Jon is a sissy because he has a mountain man beard

This is a school where only 20% don't drink on a regular basis.  There's no statistic for kids who never drink because that statistic doesn't exist beyond me.

I'm sure there are others, you just need to find them.

As for me, I don't have to worry about it people drinking because they are like 40 miles away.

I didn't.

Unlike most people, I always check that last post on the page.

And she's legal in the UK but I'm 30.  She's 14 years younger than I am.  Age is a problem in that case.

Besides, I know her family too.

Maybe when she's older and not still growing up, things may change but they won't.  She'll meet some guy and sail off into the sunset.  Whilst I canoe down the river Styx.

YES


And really Kevin, just do it man.
I've never been at a party that was busted (well ok once almost but I bailed). You go to a major school, no one will care as long as people don't act stupid.
Final time, be yourself, people really won't mind.
Those that honestly think you're a sissy well why'd you want to associate with them anyway?

Edit: numbers are silly but PSU is up there man. If Jon managed to do that, so will you
