(Para la versión en castellano, pinche aquí).
A friend I had confided in about my decision not to drink socially for a year asked me: "When is your first challenge on the socialising front?"
Gosh, I had not even thought of that. "The weekend, I guess", I answered.
Things didn't relly go acording to plan, but it was probably a blessing in disguise. In the end I went to a play with two friends -not a lot of rist being around drink there. Then we went for something to drink.
Luckily for me, one of them is not too bothered about drinking and the other one doesn't drink, so I had very little problems with peer pressure on my first outing.
When I was learning English I thought the expression was "pure" pressure as in, real, serious, lots of pressure. Which I guess in a way peer pressure is.
If your friends are pushing you to drink, they are not your friends. As simple as.
