Why do people lose interest in my friendship when they figure out that I don't drink alcohol?

I have always said that I have absolutely no issue with people drinking.

I've been sober for 12 years. I don't partake in alcohol. I tend to stay away from get togethers that have alcohol. I have also lost friends or distanced myself. I didn't want to feel the pressure. Just hang in there. ☺
