i would go ahead and say "I've given up drinking alcohol recently for health and fitness purposes."

I've given up drinking alcohol recently for health and fitness purposes. I went out for the first time last night and didn't really feel tempted to drink, but I did get asked by a couple of people why I wasn't drinking. Anybody have a good short response I can give?

How about the truth? Tell them why you literally gave it up. You don't need to dress it up.

And as a side note, there is nothing keeping you from buying a mixer like coca-cola or Red Bull and nursing that while you're at the club or bar, is there? Then no one will ask you questions. The point is that people go to a bar or club, to be social, but also to drink. It's not that you have to get blitzed, but if you're not partaking in the activities of a venue, then you stand out and make people feel awkward and sometimes weirded out.

Where did you go, exactly?

I also am wondering how to go about buying a girl a drink when I'm not drinking.

No..... I wouldn't do this, even if you were drinking.

If you were drinking or not, buying a girl a drink is not necessary.
But since you're going dry, you buying a drink will take on a creepy aspect to the people in that venue.

I gave up alcohol (including a bunch of other things) for the past 3 months for a fitness challenge. Although I dont attribute it to the lack of alcohol, it was more for discipline, I was very successful.

I went to bars with friends just sipping my water. I just explained that I was doing it for this program for my gym. It's not bad because its a convo you can have. If you dont want to explain, just say that you're not "feeling it" tonight or just lie and say that you are DD

Your not drinking is your mojo, so just tell the truth. Bonus if you turn it into fun or interesting conversation (sort of like jokes, story doesn't have to be completely true), such as "I'm driving a band's tour bus in the morning", or "i don't mix business with pleasure", whatever works for you.

Not drinking doesn't affect your game, in fact, it can boost it since you can keep top concentration/perception. Also, there are better ways than "buying her a drink" to get where you want ;)
