You know those days when you find out about someone and it's something that is just horrifically detestable and promoting something you're heavily against?
Well, today was one of those days.
I caught up with one of my good friends and we were just deeply in the topic of "drinking to get drunk". She let slip of a certain someone who did the very act... and little did she know, it was someone I care about.
It's just absolutely disgusting! I would never have thought for them to be one so easily tempted like that. When one has the chance to get rowdy at a party, they can either take control over the situation or let the situation take control of them. It's unforgivable to me, for something that I can't have associated with in my life or the partner I expect to be with.
Let me first explain why I'm so against this. I was exposed at a very young age to the effects of drunkenness and I was terrified to what I witnessed. I was only 8, but I saw how quick the person/s changed in a matter of hours. Their personality was different, they slowed in speech and they were scary in my opinion at that time. When they vomited, it was... just.. not a sight I wanted to see. I could never see them the same way. Of course, I can handle when a person gets drunk these days; but my perspective of them will be altered and I most likely will disappear from their sight because I feel no obligation to take care of them at that state. In short, my outlook on drinking was molded at a very young age. I, myself, do not drink and I can't have a partner that drinks either. It's an absolute negative. I know it will be hard to find someone with the same view, but if I do, I swear I would marry him there and then.
I'm really disappointed. But, I guess, people disappoint you sometimes.
