The Fun Things About Drunk Texting
It can be easy to think of drunk texting as a bad idea which should be avoided at all costs. After all, it is easy to send a message to someone that isn’t well thought out, embarrasses you or is perhaps out and out offensive! This should definitely be avoided, but this doesn’t mean drunk texting should be ruled out altogether. If done properly, drunk texting can be a source of fun and good humor for you and your buddies.
To make sure you take part in the fun and friendly type of drunk texting, rather than the embarrassing and regretful variety, there are a few things to keep in mind. You know that stage of drinking where you are in control of yourself, but a little more fun and wild than you are sober? This is the perfect time to start drunk texting people. You are likely to be confident and funny in a way which you might not come across as when you are sober. This can show people your interesting and attractive side.
Part of the fun of drunk texting is reading your alcohol-inspired messages again the next day. It can be hilarious to read the endless badly spelt song lyrics you and your buddy spent hours texting to one another, and some of the random thoughts you decided to share after a few drinks. Reading your drunk texting when sober is a way to see a side of yourself you may not even know existed!
Another positive aspect of drunk texting is finding out nice things people think about you they would never share when sober. Some people are naturally very shy and can find it difficult to let people know how they feel about them – especially if they are romantically attracted to that person. Alcohol can change this very quickly! It can be great to receive a message from someone who is drunk texting, but still aware of what they’re saying, where they let you know you are cute or they feel more for you than they have ever let you know about. Some great relationships between shy people have started as a result of drunk texting.
Having fun with drunk texting isn’t limited to the people who are sending and receiving the text messages. The people around them can also have a lot of fun in the process! Watching a buzzed friend try to think of the perfect thing to text is hilarious, as is watching them try to drunkenly read a text message on a remote control by mistake. If your friends are drunk texting, it’s fine to have a laugh, but stop them from doing or saying anything they’ll really regret the next day!
It’s a good idea to be careful about the things you say on your cell phone once you’ve had a few drinks. It’s easy to start drama that never would have happened sober. It isn’t all bad though and there is a lot of fun to be had from drunk texting!
