Sudden strange behaviour confused me

Super confused a bit uneasy here even though nothing bad or serious happened.
My fiancee was at a work event this week (several days in a row) and was supposed to stay over last night as well. The event wasn't very far away but the last night usually entails a lot of partying, so he was going to come back home today and see me this evening. He called me last night to tell me that he'd decided to leave tonight already as he had missed me and hadtherefore decided not to drink etc, and that he wanted to come over. I was a bit tired and hadn't expected him, but I also thought that it was sweet that he had missed me. He sounded in good spirits and I said I'd wait up for him.

When he arrived I was he was buzzing with energy, and I mean buzzing. I first wondered if he was drunk or high, but I don't think he was. I even asked him and he denied it, and I believe him because he hates drink drivers and I have never seen him get behind the wheel intoxicated. He kept talking and talking how great his day had been, and how well his presentations had landed, and how he had shown up ("absolutely smashed") another guy in work who he is always clashes with. He was almost euphoric, and I don't think he even asked how my day had been. I was really, really confused and even said that HE probably looked bad if he had shown up someone else in such a public fashion, but he wouldn't have any of it and just stayed happy and wanted to go to bed.

He can be a bit of a dick at times, but he has NEVER been like this before, so I'm still wondering if he was high or if this was "just" euphoria. He left for work this morning and was still in a really good mood, but not as exaggerated as last night. I didn't raise the topic this morning, but will do it again at the weekend I think because I kept thinking about it after he had happily fallen asleep. I googled a bit and I do not like what I hear, but I appreciate that that's just the nature of the internet. This is not normal, right?

If he was on drugs his mood in the morning would be VERY different. Also Cocaine doesn’t necessarily make you happy. All these people saying ‘textbook drugs’ I don’t think have any experience with them
Drink you’d be able to smell on him.

THIS IS A ZOMBIE THREAD!

The OP started this in September, so I'm sure it's been resolved (one way or another) since then. Hmm
