Well that's sort of annoying
We hadn't seen some of our friends in a really long time, so we went out on Saturday. They don't know I'm pg yet. I drank some sprite and then switched to water. The waiter put my sprite on the wrong bill and so our friend was like "um, my bill is wrong I didn't have a sprite." Ergh. Waiter!!! Then our friend was like "uhhhh you just had a plain sprite?" Me, "yeah." And I left it at that. Luckily, he had enough beers to where his thought process stopped there.
I do have to say though it was also annoying that when I woke up the next morning I had a split second thought of, oh man I drank too much last night. Oh no I didn't. That's just my daily life now 
Although, sometimes I'm ok with the symptoms just because it is reassurance 
Re: Well that's sort of annoying
I've been seeing a lot of posts lately about trying not to be outed because of not drinking. I'm super duper ridiculously thankful that, for some reason, the people in my circle never really bother to notice/question what anyone's drinking. The one issue I ran into was with my best friend, because he and I meet up every monday specifically for beers at a local brew pub. So yeah, it looked odd when I ordered water.
I'm sorry the waiter almost outed you though. That sucks! Glad your friend wasn't thinking clearly enough to catch on

Did your friend catch on or did it go over his head?
And me too!!!
He bought it for the first couple of weeks, but I eventually told him because I really REALLY hate lying to someone that I'm so close to.
I think he was trying to remain unaware on purpose. He and I have been close friends for a long time and he's very brotherly in the "no one is good enough for you" way. He and my husband don't get along at all and right up until I told him I was pregnant, I think he was hoping I would say I was kicking Tom out.
I love my husband very much, but he can be *very* difficult to get along with. He and I butt heads all the time and my best friend hates seeing it.

I'm sorry if this is too forward, but I have to ask-just ignore me if it pisses you off. I'm sure I'm not the only one wondering.
Have you ever think your friend has a thing for you? I might be biased since DH was my "best friend" for years before I learned he was in love with me, but I honestly don't believe guys stick around just for the friendship if they aren't attracted to you at all.
I also hung out with a big group of guys in college and I dated 3 of them (incl DH), and also learned that every single one of them had a crush on me. I hope that doesn't sound conceited, it's just the way guys and girls are, IMO. I don't believe there are truly platonic friendships, especially when you are so close and see each other every week and he doesn't like your DH. Doesn't that bother your DH?
it's so sad that we are all in such a world of drinking goes with everything, every party, every meal! i am in this boat too, but it's weird... when you suddenly aren't drinking, you know what, it's really not that bad (and my seltzer waters are way less calories
My friend did (and if everyone's being honest, probably still does to some degree) have feelings for me. We sorted things out in that department before I met DH. Well, as sorted as possible, I guess.
He probably does still have some attraction - I mean, clearly I'm a total hottie (and modest, too!
), but he gets that he and I are going in different directions (he's young and spends a lot of his time drinking too much beer and smoking too much pot. It'll be quite some time before he's the settle down type).
He and DH aren't big fans of each other - DH is jealous that I get to see Sam every week (I work days and DH works nights, so seeing each other can be a rarity) and Sam thinks DH doesn't treat me the way he should (which is also true sometimes).
Sometimes I think I live to complicate things. I also work closely (in a small company, no less) with my most recent ex of four years. DH loves that one too.
