Wow. I just posted something like this on my Facebook. I didn’t ever give in to peer pressure. I never understood why anyone would. I like what control I have and I don’t like giving it to anyone else. I also though, obey the law. Not blindly in that “if they say it’s a law, it will always be so” way, but in the “it’s a law even if I don’t like it, so I’ll obey it” way.
I also have never tried drugs or even so much as a cigarette (so gross), and didn’t even have my first real drink until I was legal at 21. I went to tons of parties etc, and was surrounded by plenty of it, I just never wanted to do it. More often than not, I would be a designated driver to get people safely home.
I only recently did my first “dare” sort of thing (a couple of years ago) where someone said they’d pay me and another girl to dance on a bar. I sort of thought, “when else would I ever do this again in my life?” I’m just not usually that type of risk taker.
