I’m a healthy outdoorsy athletic woman, never touched drugs or alcohol or junk food, a lifestyle which is intentional & ESSENTIAL criteria I work hard for.

So WHY the only men who approach me with amorous intentions are unhealthy, cigarette, alcohol, junk food men??

Update: Thank you for your thoughtful responses & the humorous ones too. I upvoted my favorites & laughed at the funnies and you’ve given me plenty to think about & work on.

    For me the most frightening aspect of drugs is not being my true self and not being 100% in control. I see it all the times when friends do them. While it is funny for me to spend time with them in that state, I would never want to be in that state myself. I do imitate drunkness and lower inhibitions to fit into the environment. Nobody takes any issue with me being sober then.

      You think you are being 100% in control? Drugs are often primarily spiritual by helping people realize that you’re never in some mystical 100% control state, it doesn’t exist.

        100% control was not meant literally. I recognize that 100% control might be unachievable. Sleep deprivation and many other factors can also reduce “control” which is equally undesirable in my opinion. Also true self might be a little loaded but I see it that way. You are free to interpret true self differently!
