Quite a few people I know have no interest in doing "fun things" with other people unless booze is nearby.
If they have to have alcohol present to be interested in social events that could be a sign of alcoholism, actually... It's definitely a dangerous and unhealthy attitude to take, even if they only drink in moderation.
I'm also not fond of recreational substances. I'm a teetotaler, myself, and fortunately my weed-taking friends are super-cool about it and don't partake in marijuana when I'm around, though they will drink in small amounts. My family I'm living with at the moment, though, drink heavily on the weekends and I'm often sent to get more booze since I'm the only sober person in the house. They've tried to have serious conversations with me while drunk before, as well, which is unbelievably uncomfortable. It's certainly something I won't miss once I move away.
