it's mojo in the morning show megan is getting ready to go on this vacation she's going on a family cruise and has a question to ask that pertains to whether or not megan when she's on this cruise can drink while she's on the cruise it's something that i didn't even think about

until honestly just the other day and now I feel so guilty um but I don't know if I'm overthinking it so we booked this cruise and if you've ever been on a cruise before you know that when it comes to drinking it's very very expensive so what people normally do is those like all you can drink packages which I didn't know at the time included like all of your coffees all of your like pretty much any drink that you're gonna have uh while you're you're away and so we just thought was the best financial option to do that everybody recommends it and so cool booked that a few weeks ago now at this point um but as I was sitting thinking about the trip because I'm stressed out about it obviously in my little group that I'm taking it's me and two boys so I'm doing all the heavy lifting and all of the planning um I've been sitting stressing whatever and I realized somebody that we're going with is is sober and now I feel very guilty because I don't know if because this person is sober should we all not be drinking but then at the same time this sounds bad but I spent a lot of money and I don't really drink that much either and I was planning on really kicking back and relaxing during this trip being around people I'll never see again I was going to kind of let more loose than i normally would and have a lot of fun yeah um and now i feel

like it would be inappropriate for me to do so so can you can you drink can you uh you know have some drinks or drink and go crazy uh while you're on this vacation with somebody who doesn't drink correct i i think you can i've had you know family and i do have family that um they they don't drink Like in, you know, some are definitely battling alcoholism. And I think we still have alcohol at parties and stuff. I think in the beginning, I think you kind of pulled back a little bit.

Yes. Yeah. Go ahead, Mike.

I quit for like five years. It was a lifestyle choice. It was a I needed to calm down. I needed to dial back. I made some bad choices. So I quit for five years. And then I at that point, you start to realize like certain people you stop hanging out with. But you also hate to be that person that's like, are they going to care if they drink around me? So I think you need to have a conversation with them because they don't want to feel like nobody wants to be around them because they don't drink. Yeah, because that's the first thing you fall into is like everybody's worried. And you now think about it that they can't drink around you. And it makes it very uncomfortable.

And my friends who are sober by choice, they will say, it would make me uncomfortable if you chose not to drink just because I choose not to. Like, please go ahead and do your normal thing, especially if it's a vacation. Now, I've had people in my life who are sober and, you know, are in AA. And in the beginning, we all just, out of support, you know, stopped drinking around them. But even now, like, they'll say, no, this is my thing. This was my decision, my choice. You, you know, enjoy yourself.

I used to host, I think a lot of KISS listeners will know this.

club kiss for like five years and for five years i was the sober person in a bar because i had to drive station vehicles and i was working and everybody around me was having a blast partying hammer drunk and i remember sometimes i had great nights and sometimes i was like all of you people are so annoying like i i am way too sober for this and i don't want this person on their vacation to feel like they're just surrounded by people they don't want to be around and now i feel very guilty

Well, what made me feel better, too, and maybe this is something they could do, is I would have a beverage, I would put a Red Bull in a glass with ice. So it looked like, and I still do this today, I will have one drink, and it'll look like I'm drinking all night long, when in reality, I've only had one drink. But back then, I would put a Red Bull in a glass just to have that feeling of walking around with something in their hand, because then nobody's questioning it, nobody's even thinking about it. Amber, what's going on?

Good morning, Mojo.

Good morning.

Megan, I just want to say to Megan that it's super sweet to respect them, and I get that you feel guilty, but just don't ask them, like, want to do a shot? Would you like a drink? Yeah. And just make it okay.

Yeah. That would probably not be good. Troy, what's up, Troy? It's Mojo in the morning.

Hey, how's it going? I was just going to say that my family left for a cruise today, and I'm sober, Megan. And the most irritating thing to me is the fact that none of my family will drink around me. And it's like the fact that I have a drinking problem, that's not my family's fault. You know what I'm saying? They don't have a drinking problem. You know? They can have a drop. I know that I can't. You know what I'm saying? So I have a drinking problem. I know that. That's not their fault. But when they don't drink around me, it's more of a pet peeve to me than it is. Interesting. You know, it actually really kind of hurts me. I feel like I'm ruining their fun more than that. Yeah. Yeah.

And, like, they're talking behind your back, so to speak, too, right?

Isn't it funny how, like... Yeah, I feel uncomfortable at holidays. You know what I'm saying? At holidays and stuff. For a while, I wouldn't even go there, like, you know, because I didn't want to ruin it. I just had my mom's 60th birthday party. And I left so that she could have more fun, you know?

Wow.

Because I know she wouldn't fully enjoy herself if I was there.

And this is going to be the rest of your life, too. So, you know, this is one of those things that you're battling for the rest of your life. What were you saying, Meg?

I think it's really funny that both sides of this are like, I just feel guilty. I don't want the other person to feel bad. Like, it's funny to me that everybody's trying to be respectful or whatever and everybody feels guilty. Like, it's not a one-sided thing.

And the biggest thing that I would say to you is make your choice now because don't you have to buy the drinking package?

She already did. I already did. Yeah, everybody did. Well, here's the thing. Would it be a little bit of a waste of money? Yes, but I can still use it for other things Like coffees and stuff like that So I wouldn't

She's going to be wired on caffeine

Remember, you're not going to be around this person Like 24-7 Do you know what I mean? So if you really wanted to have a drink And really felt uncomfortable drinking around them You could just choose to have a drink When you weren't around them
