10. Pushing drinks...

and then there were the guys who, when I said I only wanted a soda...no alcohol...went ahead and put alcohol in my Coke or Pepsi anyway, thinking I would not notice.

Unfortunately for their sneaky little agendas, even if the alcohol is tasteless, I react very quickly to its effects. Having an anxiety disorder means my muscles are tense nearly all the time.

So I definitely notice when they are NOT tense. Which can happen within 30 seconds of drinking something alcoholic (the word "drinking" being a bit of an exaggeration here, as I'm a sipper). Plus my face flushes a bit.

I'm quite sure I must have spoiled many a young man's plans...
