Rolling Dolo AND not drinking

I'm not seeing why it's so important what the girl thinks of your drink. First rule of game is not care about her opinion or shit test.
I"m a beer drinker but if I didn't want to drink i'd order a coke and really don't give rats ass what see thinks about it.
If she asked why i'm not drinking I would make dumb/surprised face and say something like: well, because I don't want to drink tonight and then change the subject.If you frame it right she won't ask anymore. Or you can see you have to stay sharp for some big event the next day. blalblabla
No offense but I think you guys are overthinking this a bit

Rolling Dolo AND not drinking

I didn't drink alcohol last night and I observed myself and analyzed my feelings about it. I also thought back to previous nights when I tried not drinking.
I didn't give a crap what women thought of me not drinking. That was a non issue. I perceived it even as a possible DHV because I wasn't a drunk idiot that women sometimes loathe. My interactions conversations are definitely better without alcohol. Alcohol just makes me spaced out and I don't like that.
What bothered me about the whole thing was what the bartenders and staff thought. I tipped a couple of bucks for my seltzer water but I still strongly felt the perceived social pressure from the staff at the bars.
I felt like I was doing something wrong by entering their bar and not partaking in alcohol. I've felt this feeling most strongly in dive bars. I felt this feeling least strongly in places where I paid a cover to get in.

I tried the not drinking thing in college, you can order a soda or water and put a wedge in it. If you don't smoke or drink, try lighting a joint before heading out - though I think it's detrimental, it may help some guys.
Cigarettes can be your friend, if you see a girl you like, act like you are on your way out for a smoke - game regularly and pull outside. If she looks like a smoker just mention it and if she comes out with you, you're golden. Also good for trolling bars at close.
I've given the completely sober game a shot and successfully closed 3/4 attempts. I had a solid wing-man though. Otherwise, if you are dolo and sober, play the numbers game - it's an overall win : you're saving time & money, living healthier and approaching more women.

If she gives you shit about not drinking then just tell her that you decided to leave your beer goggles at home.
There is really nothing wrong with not drinking in a bar and I have never had a female ask me what I was drinking unless it was something that looked strange. When I was in college my mom used to tell me that if I was broke but wanted to go out to by a drink that I did not really like. That way you have the drink in your hand but you sip it slowly if at all.
Where I live the bars and clubs close at 0200 so it is not uncommon for drunk guys to take their last shot at girls on the street at around 0230. I've found that being sober or relatively sober actually helps with the approaches at that hour. Personally, it gives me more confidence because I know I will not be just like the last guy who stumbled up to her and tried to say something clever.

I have been doing this for years (slowed down recently) and your biggest challenge here is going to be yourself rather than other people. Just make it clear you're not drinking this night. People will test you and bust your balls but if you just hold the frame and look like you barely register their whywhywhy chatter then they are eventually going to be taken aback.
What happens is, everyone has had moments when they wanted to go our and NOT drink but gave under for insecurity and peer pressure. When you then suddenly come along and emit no emotion over the concept, but even flaunting it they are internally going to recognize you as a more confident person than themselves? COULD THIS POSSIBLY BE TO YOUR ADVANTAGE?

yup Vicious 100% right.
if you decide beforehand about no drinking policy and you decide to execute it perfectly everyday with no exceptions your life becomes easier overall.
like when you start new diet/workout that last 2 months and you just say ok i'm not drinking any % for 2 months period. and you stick to that. then all of the doubts and social pressure are just irrelevant to you cause you don't give yourself a choice and so you don't start debating then and there in the bar. it's just NO. and any kind of shit people give, you just ignore or tell them straight up that you can't drink.
same with diet or any other goal.

The 'recovering alcoholic' line is awesome!! Can definitely see that one working, as opposed to giving them a serious answer.
Get better at approaching and making convo in the day, and eventually you won't need alcohol as a crutch at night. The 'high' you get from constantly opening attractive women is usually enough to keep your engine running.. no matter how tired/hungover/shitty mood you are in, when you sense pussy something primal just kicks in and your brain is like ' RIGHT, LETS FUCKING DO THIS'. Shit is more powerful than [insert drug].
If you're not growing, you're dying.

I ride a motorcycle everywhere I go so I don't drink half the time. Sometimes limit myself to two beers. If I get asked in the bar or club, I point to my helmet or say I dont drink and ride. Saves a shitload of money plus its a segway to the bike.
115-215 in the club is cool when you sober. It's just the annoyance of dealing with a tipsy lizard. At times, I feel a little bad when I pull. Damn you sober conscience. Most of the bars and clubs I hit up rarely have any riders. All it takes is one to want a ride home haha.
The cycle of disrespect can start with just an appetizer.

I've been using the dance for more now and it gets me off of drinking as much as when I just post at the bar.

theres no better reason than as a "designated driver"
For example, you order a diet coke from the bartender. She gives you a funny look. Inside you're seething, "fuck you bitch" but on the outside, you shrug and cooly smile, "I'm the DD." Whatchya gonna do now, bitch?

I prefer rolling Dolo, as opposed to with a crew of dudes or sidekicks. If I hit a club or bar, I have no problem ordering a water. Girls sometimes ask me if I'm a police officer when they see me drinking water, lol. When out of the country, girls will still often get curious.
