That Ron Weasly, he's so pushy. Listen to Harry he knows what he's talking about.

Maybe Hermoine is secretly seeing "he who can not be named"?

Well according to my friend I'm drinking and parting too much. I use to only drink maybe once in a blue moon and go to the clubs/ bars to laugh at everyone fall down. I'm basicly turning into someone else. How far do I change before it becomes a problem? Is my friend just being too much of a babysitter?

FNW
How old are you?

hermoine
I'm 21. Just turned in July

Well, do you think you are? If so, readjust yourself.

FNW
Well, it's not uncommon to begin drinking and partying at 21. You might want to watch it a bit, and maybe limit it to once a week and two drinks.

hermoine
i do. well maybe not 2 drinks but once a week. Never on a work day or the whole weekend.

How far do I change before it becomes a problem? Is my friend just being too much of a babysitter?You know if you are drinking too much. If you think you need to change it..do it. If the alcohol is controlling you, then change it. Can you stop at 2 drinks? If not, you better deal with it. It's not a matter of I don't want to....you need to see if you can. Alcoholism isn't pretty...so deal with it. Your friend is probably saying something because they are concerned. How did you take it? Did you feel defensive & picked on? Cause that's a sign of alcoholism. There's a GREAT test online you can take to see if you might be heading in that direction, but you have to be honest.

Try stopping at two drinks. Switch to something non-alcoholic. If you can't, you have a problem.
