Was it rude that i got a little too drunk at my best friends birthday party and passed out the whole night on the floor drunk and missed her whole birthday party? She had this whole bar set up at her house where everyone could fix there own drinks so i helped myself to a few beverages and i admit that. And so i got a little drunk and passed out for a few hours. And so after the party was over and everyone was gone, i woke up from the floor and she confronted me and she was like how could you do this to me i thought you were my best first friend and you go and get drunk and pass out and spend my entire birthday party on the floor passed out and i was like what i was just trying to have some fun and she was like you call getting drunk and passing out on my floor drunk for the whole night and missing my entire party fun and i was like ok ya i admit i had too much to drink and i make a mistake cant i make a mistake and she was like whatever and now i feel rude, am i?

Yes it was your friends day and anyways it is never healthy to get so drunk that you pass out

Just because you weren't intending to be rude, doesn't mean it didn't turn out that way. Passing out at her party WAS rude. I'm sure she was counting on enjoying the night together with her, and since you are her best friend - probably helping her out a bit as well. I'm sure her feelings are hurt more than she is concerned about your etiquette :)
I think it's good you admitted your mistake, maybe make it up to her by having another celebration just for two of you -buy her dinner, take her to a movie, bring a card along and pay for whatever it is you do - and you should both be able to laugh about it soon :)

Yes, it was 'like' rude. Obviously you still have not recognized that there is a huge difference between 'a little drunk' and passing out drunk, which is always tacky at best and deadly at worst. You minimize with your language, as in 'so I helped myself to a 'few', people don't pass out from a 'few', it takes true excess (unless aggravated by a medication or drug combined effects) Now that you are admittedly starting to feel rude, as you should,try going out of your way to SHOW you are sorry, treat your friend to a birthday outing that is fun for both of you and doesn't involve alcohol.

Yes, you were very rude. Your best friend obviously wanted you to celebrate her birthday with her, not passed out on the floor like a loser.
Admitting you made a mistake is not the same as apologizing and you owe your friend an apology.
You also owe the people who read and answer your questions the benefit of punctuation!

It is abit rude. In a drinking situation it's best to moderate. Detting completly smashed is not appropreate in ANY situation at ANY age. It becomes more frowned uppon the older you get. Always take it slow and know when to stop. Break up the alcoholic drinks with non alcoholic drinks to be safe. You should be happy that all you got was a verbal lashing from her. It could have been worse.

it was alittle rude, but, she shouldnt be questioning your friendship over it. The only time to get super super drunk like that is when the occasion is for YOU. Because then you would be the one paying for the party, AND the drinks, which gives you the excuse to do it.

my question is...obviously for you to pass out, there must have been a point where it was apparent that you were starting to drink too much...as the person responsible for the party, she needed to say enough is enough, no more drinks for you. So it was kind of irresponsible of her.
BUT...that doesnt' mean that you getting to the point where you passed out wasn't rude. But, you know for the next time right?? :)

What's bad is that no one checked on you " for a few hours ".
If she is THAT good of a friend, it seems to me that she would have been concerned for you.
I know I've taken care of people that have had too much to drink at my parties !!!!
OK, so you made a mistake ! Lesson learned, right?
But THAT'S what I think is rude !!!

I woundn't say you were rude, but it was not good to drink that much and pass out. She should forgive you and you should never do it again. I know drinking can slip up on you and before you know it you are drunk. I know you probably did not mean to get drunk. **** happens.

Don't be too hard on yourself. It was a bit of a faux-pas, best not to repeat it. But you feel bad about it, which is a good sign that you care about your friend, and you are genuinely sorry. I suggest writing her a card, and telling her in short words that you're sorry and it won't happen again. Don't drag it out too long, or fault her for having alcohol. She just wanted it to be perfect, and she's upset because she's your best friend, and she wanted you to be there for all of it. It will work out fine. Good luck!

yes you were rude, friends are suppose to stand by one another you being there meant you were her friend, but getting drunk passing out meant that you were only thinking of yourself, i,m not judging just saying you should have been more socialable,and drunk less
