I don't drink or eat gluten so very much relate to this Christina. My social life has definitely changed - I seek more ways to socialise that don't revolve around drinking - catching up with friends for a walk or brunch/lunch are probably my favourites. But I've also learned as I've grown older to be less apologetic for who I am - people can take it or leave it, and the true friends get it. Thanks for sharing your experiences 😊
