So find some spot where you meet people who are as sobre as you are in social settings instead of one where alcohol is the norm. Join a church or something similar, one where they keep to the bit where it says "thou shallst not get whacked" but go easy on the god hammer. Assuming that you're not pleased with the current status quo - and that seems to be a given from what you wrote here - some form of action is needed to break out of it. Bluto from "Animal House" would advice you to "start drinking heavily" but that is sure to have its negatives as well. Either embrace your temperance and notice that those people managed to procreate as well (which implies boy did meet girl) or, well, have a beer next time and see where it takes you.
