As a child I could not understand why people would want to drink something that made them lose control of themselves and make them less aware of what was happening in and around them. To me life was exciting and scary all at the same time, and I wanted all my faculties about me! So it's no surprise that I would not date anyone who drank alcohol. When I met my future husband he was 20 and I was not quite 16, but I knew he was the guy for me.
