Drunk dial shame

120 replies

Arleybarls · 01/06/2023 12:40

I'm seeing a man and it's going really well. On Sunday, I went to the pub and came home and had a few joints with the neighbour in the garden. I didn't think I was very drunk but the weed went to my head. Anyway, I drunk dialled the guy I'm seeing and sent a few messages - nothing particularly bad, just a bit cringey. I can't remember whether he answered the phone though. I've been worrying all week and he hasn't contacted me. I haven't contacted him because I'm too ashamed. We'd planned to go on a hike on Saturday and I'm wondering what to do? Any advice?

Please don't tell me what a dickhead I am - I know that already!

Oh for sure...but rocking up pissed after the pub and doing it with your neighbours sounds pretty common to me..

Genuinely classy people don’t usually describe themselves as “very posh” 😂

A bit of weed late at night never hurt anyone. Don't like the smell but it's not actually causing any harm. The world would probably be a nicer place if everyone smoked weed.

I don't take drugs but couldn't give a shit what others do in their gardens at night time.

I can't smoke it, I can't handle it but my god I love the smell.

JandalsAlways · 02/06/2023 22:37

Be honest. Just a breezy, how are you. Sorry about the calls etc had a bit to drink the other night. Do you want to catch up again.

Ingrowncrotchhair · 02/06/2023 22:49

OP, your job is pretty outing. You may want to rethink leaving this thread up @Arleybarls

You obvs don’t know very many classy people because we absolutely do.

You seem weirdly invested in whether I’m posh or not. I’m not even the OP and my initial comment wasn’t even to you. I suggest you get a life.

@Comedycook you haven't lived 😂

How sad that you think someone who doesn't drink alcohol or takes drugs hasn't lived....

How pathetic

BastetsWhiskers · 03/06/2023 10:12

@Comedycook you're not exactly...full of joy. You sound more bitter than someone who has been in an alcohol haze for a year and woken up to find out they're living in a tree!

I don't think anyone has to do drugs or alcohol at all but wouldn't trot around in a rage spitting out 'pathetic' at people.

You said I hadn't lived because of my lifestyle choices...if you think someone can't have lived because they don't take drugs or drink alcohol...then yes, I think that's a pretty pathetic attitude.

She did nothing of the sort 😂
You, on the other hand, sound extremely aerated.
Are you coming down off something? <head tilt>

Alcohol and other drugs are far more of a concern than a bit of weed. How many stoners do you hear of going out causing trouble, fighting, committing serious crimes. Next to none because they are all eating shit on the sofa out the front of their house.

Haha. That made me laugh

BastetsWhiskers · 03/06/2023 17:51

@Hannahsbananas thank you for the head tilt, hope you didn't crink your neck! Bonus point for tinkly laugh.

I have said before on this thread that I fully endorse @Comedycook not drinking. But she does sound a bit daft slinging around accusations of pathetic and sofas in the garden.

Seems to have worked out for OP anyway, that dope smoking, sofa sitting POS in your opinion.

Sigmama · 03/06/2023 17:57

Comedycook, What does common actually mean to you?

In fairness, @Comedycook (and I haven't advanced-searched you, I just recognise your name and the kind of things you say), you frequently sound incredibly prescriptive about 'lifestyle choices', deeply class-conscious, and have some entrenched ideas about gender.
