I'm massively ashamed.
Friday night I met my boyfriends family as they had a party and I made a total fool of myself.
I drank 1l of vodka,I tried to kiss my boyfriends brother,I fell down some stairs.
I told his sisters and gran (who is 82) they were "swear words"
I can't remember any of it.
They've told me I'm not welcome in their home again.
Can I redeem myself here?
Do you think boyfriend will dump me?

I've understandably name changed.

Yes. Apologies and excuse yourself from the relationship etc

SuperstarDJ · 18/11/2018 13:39

Do you normally get on like that when drinking?

I’d dump you if I were him tbh.

angelarr · 18/11/2018 13:39

Yeah apparently I do.
Well when I drink spirits anyway.

Well, at least you can be dumped and never have to see any of them again. It's a very slim, almost invisible silver lining.

TwistedStitch · 18/11/2018 13:42

Do you have an alcohol problem? Why on earth would you drink so much?

greyspottedgoose · 18/11/2018 13:43

'Apparently I do' makes me think you have heard horror stories about yourself before, learn from it.

That's from a non judgy perspective, if I drink wine, even 2 or 3 glasses I get angry/aggressive and end up being sick 😔 Iv learnt from this and stick to vodka now when I'm out as it makes for a much nicer drunk me.

I'd send an apology and some flowers to his family and back away from the relationship gracefully

KittyVonCatsworth · 18/11/2018 13:43

A litre of vodka? Cracking onto the brother? Swearing at the granny? Yep, safe to say you might not be getting an invite to Christmas dinner anyway. I think you need to get your drinking under control if this is how you behave.

RTFT · 18/11/2018 13:43

A litre of vodka???

tinydancer88 · 18/11/2018 13:43

I think you need to look very carefully at why you wanted or needed to drink so much on an occasion where you surely wanted to make a good first impression.

RUOKHUN · 18/11/2018 13:44

Yes. You’ve completely fucked that. Apologise and spend some time working on yourself and why you felt the need to drink that much and then act that way.

angelarr · 18/11/2018 13:44

I do stupid things when I drink vodka.
My friends have told me this before.
I was so nervous before meeting them that I drank it just to stop my nerves.
I'm a totally different person sober :-(

TheFaerieQueene · 18/11/2018 13:44

I’m amazed you survived drinking a litre of vodka tbh. 🤔

angelarr · 18/11/2018 13:45

I can't remember a thing.
I can't even remember going back to his house.

A litre of vodka? God that makes me feel sick.
Take some responsibility- you know that you react badly to spirits so stop drinking them. Yes, I would assume your boyfriend would finish it with you. You owe him and his family a huge apology and then to leave them alone.

RaiderOfTheKitchenCupboard · 18/11/2018 13:46

If he doesn’t dump you, I’d be questioning his judgement tbh...

tinydancer88 · 18/11/2018 13:46

I can understand the urge to have a drink when you're a bit nervous, but getting through a litre of vodka implies that once you start you can't stop.

angelarr · 18/11/2018 13:46

So basically you think he will dump me?
He said this morning he knew it wasn't the real meal and it's not.
I've got anxiety and I drink at times to help.

OP posts:
cricketmum84 · 18/11/2018 13:47

Has he spoken to you since?

I think you need to think very carefully about why on Earth you needed that amount of alcohol. You are doing yourself some very serious harm drinking that much.

I would dump you for that behaviour!

AnneLovesGilbert · 18/11/2018 13:47

Were you intentionally sabotaging your relationship?

Where was your bf when all this was going on?

He hasn’t dumped you but he should. You’ve embarrassed yourself and him so much I can’t see the way forward.

You need help for your drinking.

mimibunz · 18/11/2018 13:48

I’d never show my face again! I’d send a hand written apology and break up with bf.

TheQueef · 18/11/2018 13:48

You won't be able to make it right with his family so why go through it?
Get the anxiety sorted and the drink and then look for a partner.

cricketmum84 · 18/11/2018 13:49

Drinking does not help anxiety.

Dontgiveamonkeys1350 · 18/11/2018 13:50

As some else in here has said. It does sound like you were trying to ruin the relationship before u went. Knowing that drinking that would end in this result. Wether you did it knowingly or u intentionally
