Do you ever do this? [View all]

I find myself encouraging other people to drink in social situations. Especially my wife and kids. Maybe they think it makes me feel awkward if I'm the only one not drinking, but the opposite seems to be true for me. I feel weird if I know they're not drinking because of me. Anyone else?
