Is Being Drunk An Excuse?

When I was in college, I used to be in the club from Wednesday-Sunday every week. I used to drink all the time, but now I have become a social drinker. The reason why I have become a social drinker is because going to the club eventually got old and also I was around people who would drink so much, there would be no one to drive home. I rather be the designated driver who is sober and alert.

I have also made a decision to not be around people who drink excessively. Some people are like a Dr. Jekyl and Ms. Hyde. They feel like once they get some liquor in them, its time for them to act like an ass. People will come out of their mouth and say the things they have been really feeling about you. Then the next morning when you are feeling sour and angry, they will act like they don't remember or they will act like the drinking was an excuse and they really didn't mean it. Ummmm.....yea right! You know they aren't really your friends if they can't tell you the truth about how they feel when they are sober. They are just cowards.

Another thing people make an excuse for drinking is sleeping with other people, either its an ugly person or cheating on their boyfriend/girlfriend or husband/wife. You know how a person will roll over and scream, "Damn. Hell No! Is that the same person I came home with?" So, now the non-attractive person starts stalking you because you're not replying to their phone calls and text message. What are you going to say? "Blame....Blame....Blame it on the liquor?" Now, that's just dumb.

What about your relationship? You're going to tell your boyfriend/girlfriend or wife/husband that it was a dumb move and the person didn't mean anything to you. Or what if the other person ends up pregnant, then you are really in a jam. A one night stand could bring you a lot of pain and regrets when alcohol comes in the picture.

So, in reality drinking is not an excuse to act like an ass. Let me know what you think.
