How come peoples true feelings towards you come out when they are drunk? Do you think they do.?

Question

I always feel I can tell anybody my deepest thoughts and feelings that otherwise I would not be able to say, and same here with my friend.

I told someone how I felt about something that happened to them over two years ago just in the last couple of days and it still feels as raw and painful as it did when it happened so long ago.

I was in tears pouring my heart out and even though I was drunk I meant every word and can remember it, I really opened up and told that person and that person actually opened up to me for the first time and they had never told anyone about how they felt.

If someone tells you something so deep and so lovely when they are drunk, do they really mean it and feel that way.

I was drunk and was able to tell someone how I felt from the bottom of my heart and I can remember it and I meant it, do you think they remember what I said?

They said the next morning how good it was to open up and talk about what had happened two and a bit years ago.

Thanks lol it didnt effect us negative it was just telling each other how much we cared :-)

We were not to the point of blackoput no where near far from it lol, i didnt even have a hang over the next day

Hi Sweetie,
I allways thot it was the booze talking. However in diff cases, diff people, alcohol comsumption they're are the "True Colors" that come out. In r case scenerio it was 4 the best it just took a nite of partying & alcohol 2 bring r true feeling to the for-front? I'm glad u got it off r chest, as burrowing something no matter how irrevilant to the other person, it maybe eating at r soul all this time, which isn't good 4 you, the other person, a terrible feeling inside u r left burdened with. I'm glad all came out, U got that "Monkey Off R Back" (we say in Canada) & after speaking r mind all is well, which I wish had of happened long ago Ash, agree? U carried it around with U for over 2 yrs in r heart, & in 1 nite of partying it all came out in tears like a ton of bricks was lifted from U! I gotta commend u for that Girl, better late, than never. Keep up the Bravoury of Speaking R True, feelings, thots, etc. This World wud be a better place if ALL did! And that doesn't mean to get boozed up1st!!!!!! ha ha. lol Telling the truth, no matter how bad cleanses the not just the Air but R Soul!

LOL, Diana D

Answer 2

In part this is an illusion and depends on what stage of alcoholism you are in , as it is a progressive disease, Booze
in the long run kills memory cells, Maybe a couple of drinks will loosen you up to speak your heart, Cross the line to be a
problem drinker then no, the truth does not always come out,
just neurotic emotions that are complex and confused, not to mention black outs, when you can say and do things as if walking in your sleep, that one will not remember the next day.
A drunk, drunk usually makes no sense at all, as well gets confused to what other people are saying. and that is where real trouble begins that is harmful to the drunk and others.

I think it depends on the person. People are usually more honest when drunk (it's hard to lie when you're somewhat out of it) BUT some people tend to say MORE than what they mean. A drunken "I love you" can mean "I like you as a friend" and not "I'm in love with you". A lot of people laugh it off too, so if they remember it, they might not have taken you seriously. If that's the case, you might have to find a way to make it more clear.

Answer 4

yup alcohol makes you say things without thinking.. So most of the times your true feelings come out... That's why my friend says if someone's drunk it's the best time to ask them a personal ? or a ? you want to know the truth about because they usually tell you. it's like alcohol turns off the thinking part of your brain... I've actually never told someone true feelings when i was drunk(& i dont drink anymore) but i've known a few people who've done this...

Answer 5

I defiantly believe that! If you meant what you said. The others can and I'm sure most do as well. Haven't you ever heard alcohol referred to as "liquid courage". I know alcohol use to really open me up! I'd say, do, all kinds of stuff I would not normally do sober. It was great. Then it stopped being like that later on so I stopped. That's what I loved about drinking. Of course alot can do with the kind of drink your having. ERRRROOF! So anyway yes it's true, alcohol opens you up. If it does that for you and you don't get violent, then drink on! Nothing wrong with that.

Answer 6

its easier for people to not care what others think and to speak the truth. i have found over the years that you will hear more of the truth from a drunk. just learn when to say when so that you can remember what you said and that you dont say something that will effect someone in a negative way.

Answer 7

Alcohol lowers inhibitions and ameliorations the way you filter out what you're saying. this would not recommend it shows any truths, your inner theory strategies (alongside with inhibitions and filters) are area of your character and area of the innovations and emotions you have. Alcohol alters this, so what it shows is an altered, distorted view of somebody's emotions. It additionally brings sexual innovations to the forefront. there is not something incorrect with somebody questioning that their cousin is appealing, in basic terms approximately all human beings has a warm cousin. yet generally human beings do not act on those innovations (alongside with being overly actual and flirtatious). Alcohol drops the filters, and ramps up the intercourse force.

Answer 8

I think a lot of times we say things we WANT to say when we're drunk. Sometimes we don't even realize they are things we want or wanted to say but they come out anyway. That situation really must have been on your mind for a while for it to come up when you were drunk.

Answer 9

Yes,i think that people mean most of what they say when they are drunk. Well i do.
I find it easier to talk to people coz im usally quite shy.
I dont no why this happens though :S

Sorry i cant help.
