Have You Ever Made A Fool Of Yourself While Drunk?!
Have You Ever Made A Fool Of Yourself While Drunk?
I went to an anniversary party on Saturday night, It was for my wifes parents. I don't usually drink maybe only twice a year but my wifes brothers/uncles got me very drunk on Saturday night. So drunk infact I can't remember anything but I do know I was very very loud, Now I'm very shy when sobber, infact I have social anxiety so it was totally unlike me. The wife says I didn't make a fool of myself, my wifes mother who runs me to work just acted normal with me on Monday morning but I can't face anyone else, Because I can't remember anything I am so scared I made a fool of myself, it has tortured me all week as I am a natural worrier anyway. I can't get it out of my head, I mean how can I look at these people again.
Has this ever happened to you? If so have you any advice?
Answers: ok ok first off calm down
its happened to probably everyone atleast 1nce who drinks...so you are not alone...
but my advice is this.....DONT WORRY
trust me, if you made a fool of yourself at your wifes parents anniversary you would know....Your wife would be the first to tell you, If i know women, they would NOT let this go....you would even be hearing about this 20 years from now, she would never let it go...thats how women work, they bring this stuff up and hold it over your head LOL......so the fact that she says you did alright should be your first clue that you werent too out of control...
also if the woman whos anniversary it was was ok and not acting weird then do not worry...
if you made a fool of yourself you would have heard by now...
specially from your wife...
so relax and forget about it, it happens. Usually, you can't remember the worst things! Let me count the way's, No seriously lost count years ago that's why I don't drink. I can honestly say I have never been drunk, About 3 times a week, so not really very often. Just carry on as normal and you'll be ok. You got you drunk-nobody forced it down your throat..
I often got drunk since I used to be an active alcoholic. All you can do is apologise. It happens to a lot of people. Don't worry-they will understand. I don't normally get so drunk as to make a fool of myself. However, it did happen and it's only now I can laugh about it! The advice - watch your drinks! Don't give in to peer pressure. LOL! Got very very drunk in my first Christmas party with my colleagues and end up trowing up every where in the pub's toilet with my boss sitting outside, before fainting. I was covered in vomit and had to be carried to the car by my husband who was meeting my colleagues for the first time ever!! does it get more embarrassing than this, don't think so:-) I think you worry too much; alcohol is said to bring out our true self; not our stupid self. Look at it this way....IF you HAD made a fool of yourself...your wife would be the FIRST to let you know, and since her mother is still acting normal...you behaved. TRUST ME...my husband knew when he misbehaved, and I KNEW when I had misbehaved.
However, you should make a note to self....watch yourself around you wife's brothers/uncles. No usually when I'm drunk I'm off in my own little world or I pass out. It's awesome. I have woken loads of times and thought oh no what did I do but its never as bad as you think. You think that because you feel you were loud and you are usually quiet then its a disaster. It isnt, your wife would have been the first to say something and your mother-in law wouldnt have been pleased if you had ruined her anniversary party. RELAX its worked out ok. I am a Recovering alcoholic and not saying you are at all, because you said you only drink twice a year, but my point is that I have made a fool of myself over and over again until I completely stopped drinking and my life is great now because I do not have to have the fear of - oh no what did I do and to whom. What is the past is the past and leave it at that just try not to ever get drunk again and you will not have to worry about your actions. everyone's done it, stop worrying about it, dont lose anymore sleep over it, everyone has probably forgotten about it except you. It has happened to me a lot, I am a very annoying drunk and so tend to steer clear, as I also torture myself for a while - though, i have to say I eventually say to myself, hell i'm just not that important. if they haven't said anything then you obviously haven't done anything, and trust me, us women would be the first to roast you if you'd embarrased us at a family do!! i think the question should be have you ever been drunk and NOT made a fool of yourself lol! dont worry chick everyone does it when theyve had a few its part of life i think to be embarrassed at least u feel bad and not just oh well never mind! same time same place next week? lol xx Jings, I've peed myself in the back of a taxi whilst heading to the second part of my night oot. Had tae spend the rest of the night "drying off" and trying tae keep my wet bum out of the limelight!!! Well, whilst staying at my husbands parents house once, we all got very drunk but i decided to go sleep walking and ended up in bed naked with his mum and dad. They are very strict catholics and not impressed by drinking excessively so you can imagine their surprise and annoyance.
It is now 6 years later and with most of the family it is just a joke that they bring up at any opportunity but i still don't think his mother has forgiven me. When i visit now I have to make sure that i drink in moderation or not at all.
As for you it doesn't sound as though you made a fool of yourself, you should either just try to forget about it or maybe ask your mother in law. If she tells you you did nothing wrong just forget it, if you did embarrass yourself try to laugh it off as a joke. oh yes.
That was a while ago though, i'm more sensible now
it was always more embarresing when someone told me what i'd done when i couldn't remember!
