Peer Pressure

[welshcake]

??? you must have.. they're everywhere in clubs/pubs

if your getting pressured into drugs by friends, then you need new friends

also no, I've never been peer pressured into anything. if I don't want to do something I won't

i don't go to clubs or pubs
I didn't drink until I went to university and still here I've never seen anyone doing drugs in front of me
it sounds so lame
I've only ever known 2 people who did stuff but they would always walk away to smoke and things so never in front of me
my close friends have always been against everything like proper against drugs they went mad when they found out one of our friends smoked a couple of times and by that I mean both tobacco and weed

It depends really on the people and what theyre saying etc
when I first met a couple people we went to a park where they starting smoking and everything and no matter how much I refused to try they wouldn't idk stop??
they're all into like a lot of drugs now so I'm glad I don't hang out with them now anyway considering if just 2 of them made me try hving a thing of a cigarette (tbf I didnt even know you had to inhale in the 1 puff I did lmfao when I found out you had to inhale smoke was like er no gross??? and refused to even touch it after that) but then theyre in a group of like 15-20 of them who all do a lot of drugs smoke etc so can't imagine what it'd be like if I was to hang out w/them
I can prob give in quite easily if a person doesn't give up easily when I say no like the 2 people just went on and on despite how many times I said no for it to be the only way to shut them up??
dunno I'm p much a pushover when it comes to it because I'll feel too bad to say no or I'll just think meh it'll finally shut them up or whatever

Peer Pressure is when they physically pressure you to do it.. Otherwise it's you not having backbone and just giving in to your desire. If you don't want to do it, you won't do it..

I am the type of person who has trouble to say no as I don't want to make them upset or anything even though sometimes I don't feel like but it all depends what they want though but sometimes it it is just a bit difficult for me to say no but I am trying to work harder on this.

Never. I am very strong willed!! There is no making me do something I don't want to do.

Never experienced peer pressure what so ever. It wasn't until I was older that I started trying things you would normally do when you were younger. Started smoking two years ago and I now love Amsterdam a little too much but apart from that, I'm not really into pushy people so wouldn't have them as friends so would never really get pushed into a situation where I feel uncomfortable.

In short.. No.. I'm a cynical **** at work, so anytime someone complains to me, even if I think they're heading towards "I want free things pls" I'll shut them down before they even get there. Don't care what sob story you have, 99% of the time it's because of their own stupid fault as to why they're complaining anyway..

Then when I'm not at work, I'm surrounded by friends and family normally, so if they ask me to do something I don't want to do, then I'll tell them straight. The only difference is if someone has done me a big favour and then they ask for one back when they know I'm free (and it's something I don't really want to do) I do help them, but that's not really peer pressure as such.
There has been a few times where I've not felt like going on a night out, but then I get loads of people calling me and eventually change my mind.. This isn't peer pressure either, as the only reason I normally don't want to go out is because I'm not in the mood, then with all the 'hyped' up phone calls and people coming round, they got me in the mood!

No I do what I want. You are in control, you can make the decisions. This is probably why I don't have many friends
