I personally feel that everyone is different and as such people are able to handle their alcohol better than others.
For me, I can pretty much drink any day of the week, that's not saying that I do but if I'm out with friends at the bar or at a buddies place, I'll drink if that's what we want to do. I've backpacked a lot throughout the world so I'm used to drinking pretty much every night in hostels with the other backpackers and stuff. I find it a lot easier to meet people while drinking and I also find it harder to have fun when I'm at bars if I'm not drinking.
I don't drink alone though, that's something I just can't do for some reason. I don't usually come home from work and want a beer either(when I'm working in town that is). I really only like to drink if I'm gonna be with friends. I work out of town for 2-3 weeks at a time during the winter months mostly and during those times I don't drink at all and really have no problem doing so.
When I do drink with friends, I drink to get drunk, mind you I never get black out drunk and vary rarely make a fool of myself. Most people can't even tell when I'm drunk.
I have a friend that drinks alone at home most nights, hides it from his wife(who works nights a lot) and he drinks to get s h i t faced pretty much every time(He blacks out a lot). That to me is a problem.
