Why is it when drunk that I feel the need to discuss my problems? Was with a group of friends over the weekend and both nights when extremely bladdered, I couldn't stop....anyone else similar and if so how did you stop?
 
Yer I do that, usally it's things that I want to tell people but don't have the courage to tell them at other times (very deep and meaningful things for example) I don't stop, find it usally brings people closer together knowing the darker secrets of one another. Nothing to hide really, few embarrising things but everyone does them!
 
I sometimes do the same, but I mainly rant on about things and say the first thing which comes into my head which isn't always a good thing to do :o
 
It's called "in vino veritas" .... truth in wine.

Another instance is telling your boss exactly what you think of them at the office party.
 
Happens all the time at parties. Sometimes for the best, other times for the worst. I mean, mostly its a group of friends opening up and thus, creating stronger bonds and to be honest, i like those conversations. No-one repeats them, everyone just revealing things they shouldn't do..but by the next morning, people are thinking "Did i imagine him/her saying that?".

On that note at the xmas party apparently i asked the CEO if he knew who i was... when he said "no" i said something possibly rude :confused: Cant remember what tho (plus still have my job).
 
AT an end of year subject dinner at Oxford i proudly stood up in the middle of the head tutors after dinner speech, told him to shush, and proudly and loudly exclaimed 'I'd just like to say, you're all a bunch of ****s'

10 minutes later i did it again, apparently. I have only the vaguest recollection of this.
 
Yes, had a wonderful weekend swishing down port and wine on Saturday. Bad news is that I remember that there is an attractive girl at the party who I failed to impress... good news is that I have a totally clear conscience - I am sure that I embarassed myself and probably blabbed some random thoughts and broken shards of rubbish from inside my head but I really couldn't care less...

Dr Johnson "He who makes a beast of himself, rids himself of the pain of being a man"

I say you need to get in touch with your animal side from time to time... **** social convention and embarrasment
 
What I said was true, but I'd rather people didn't repeat...ah! I'm slightly more relaxed now - knowing I'm not some idiot:p (shush).
 
I've done it a few times.

They best thing is sitting down with my best mate and we get drunk and talk about all our problems like a really strong and important political debate. It's the best thing ever.

We then make plans, which one or both of us never stick to the next morning. But it's all good fun! :). The best part of it though, is when both of us are talking loudly, wanting to talk more than the other and we end up laughing and doing that man-hug-giggle thing!

Ohhh, awesome times *wipes away tears*.

I have been known to do that too, but only with my best friend who I can trust implicitly so there is no problem. With other people i am very guarded about that sort of thing even when drunk.
 
i told a girl i fancied her last friday! whoopsie, luckily this phone stores my sent messages!

I blame my mate who was telling me to just do it - luckily she was ok about it! phew
 
I pretty much always say what I mean and often use the phrase "if you ask me a straight question I will give you a straight answer". I have nothing to hid so it applies when sober or drunk :) Therefore I don't reveal anything that I would have otherwise hidden when I'm drinking - so I can babble about absolute nonsense instead :D

Mobile phones should have a breathyliser on them so that you can't send drunken text messages.

I'm with you on this Phil. I've had some really good conversations with mates after a good few drinks. It's really good for relieving stress and you always know that it won't go any further.

*Fancies a session now*

No way, some of the drunken messages I have sent have been works of art or stuff that just needed to be said. Of course, other have been not so good...
