Female attitude towards party behavior of their boyfriend
I am a student in my early twenties and have had several serious relationships. I would say that I have an active social life next to my studies and job. Much like most people I guess.
Since me and some of the people I associate with during weekends enjoy drinking and the use of recreational drugs (cocaine, weed, nothing special). I have come to an observation regarding women around me, as well as in my personal past that are in a relationship.
Namely: I am getting the idea that many girlfriends dislike the behavior of their boyfriend when going out. To me, there often seems to be a very negative and controlling attitude by girlfriends towards their boyfriend when he decides to drink and/or do drugs.
The logical explanation for this would be fear of him losing control and not respecting her. but even when the girlfriends are actually around they seem to often disapprove.
From what I have encountered even guys seem to always assume that women dislike the use of narcotics and alcohol and are surprised when women seem fine with it.
So girls, how do you feel about it, and guys do you recognize one of the attitudes described in your girlfriend?
