    No, yet which you will ask him approximately it besides. Your ex would would desire to work out you despite if the assertion itself is extremely very almost continuously only meant to be a humorous tale. because of actual undeniable fact that, in spite of everything, once you're under the impact of alcohol (like rather under the impact of alcohol) your breath smells risky, you suspect like guffawing and the completed international is spinning and dancing around. So alot of the flaws you do or say ought to easily be randomly placed at the same time, or you try to be humorous, or demanding. after which you ought to no longer even do no longer forget what you probably did or suggested day after on the instant. some men and ladies are additionally delicate or indignant drunks, meaning the alcohol effortlessly makes them act in a distinctive way. Alcohol and medicines are somewhat almost the equivalent element, so shall we are saying your extreme and you all of sudden see a team of rainbow extraterrestrial beings...that doesn't recommend which you will seem them while your sober. ...Thats style of a bad rationalization, yet do you get my factor? despite if on your case, you ought to as solid try. attempting in no way HURTS! :) (in case you nevertheless like him only suitable success) in case you dont like him, only dont respond

    I think it varies between drunks. Some guys/gals I know do say what they feel or really mean with no inhibitions. On the other hand, I've known others to speak the words of their evil twin and spew with lies.

    i do not really think so...i think drunk men say things they do not mean at times.. and it does impair their there judgement and their speech and their actions..so i do not think this is true at all...i have been drunk a few times and i know i acted in ways i would not normally act like... and i felt more loose and did not care, except fot the idea of having fun.. and i think i am much better off since i do not drink hardly at all anymore..

    I've learned a lot of trueths through drunk friends, I've asked them the next day to see if what I was told was true and yes almost all was true.

    yes they say things that they have thought of in the past but i also think when you are really drunk that your thoughts become jumbled so you should not hold drunk people responsible for eveything that comes out of there mouth nor should you try to entrapt someone while they are drunk

    Absolutely. The recent Mel Gibson episode comes to mind, actually.

    I'd say..generally speaking...people with a few in them tend to say things they normally wouldn't. This is a scientific fact.

    I think the degree of truthfulness that comes out is the variable. I know some people who might get a little more open....and I know some that share WAY to much information.
