Been feeling a little less then pretty good but good none the less. So I decided have a few beers with a friend. Only had about 3. Next morning all I could think of is the X; sadness, anger, love, madness.

 

Lesson:

 

Stay Away for Alcohol after break-up for a good long time, even if your feeling better

This is one thing I will greatly agree with. I have always been a guy who likes his whiskey, but 3 days after my break up my friends pulled me out and took me out drinking. Things were fine and dandy till I had one too many...

 

They ended up pulling me out of a bar because I was trying to start a fight....I took it as trying to replace emotional pain with physical pain...I didnt even know what happened...I guess I texted my ex about wanting to drink her away as well...not good...

 

2 weeks later, similar situation too many drinks started to get violent and blacked out, ended up waking up at my buddies apartment, girl next to me (no clue what had happened) apparently no sex which was good...Stories I heard the next morning consisted of singing Kareokee, making out with this girl, and taking her home only to disappoint her by passing out...I thought it was kind of funny...

 

Since then all I have been able to do is have a glass of red wine from time to time...Booze really doesnt help anything...It makes matters worse...It is a very weak way to cope.

Good lesson.

 

After my last break-up (she cheated on me, the thread's around here somewhere but damned if I can find it now) I committed to myself to stay dry for at least six months, lest I end up trying to crawl into a bottle and obliterate my feelings of anger and sadness with booze.

 

Glad I did, too.

Even a couple makes the next day a bit harder and everything a little more melancholy

i used to go out all the time without drink and have a really good laugh. but since my ex broke up i have been drunk more times than the 5 and a half years we were with eachother. i have really enjoyed being out with my mates and having a drink. but if she was to come back i think i would stop as i liked knowing that we were home safe and sound. when its just me i dont even care. i just want to get drunk and forget......
