tipsy!


Question Posted Monday October 2 2006, 10:53 pm

15/f. sorry i dont know what to put this under. i have never really gotten drunk, only like a little bit or just a buzz a few times. also i have only made out once, and i was not really sure what i was doing. and im not really sure how to. i am thinking that maybe getting a little more tipsy will help me loosen up and not be so shy, and then i am hoping i will make out with someone while im drunk, atleast so i can ask them about it and like have an excuse to ask if i am a good kisser, even being a little bit drunk. sorry if this doesn't make sense, but i could really use your opinion on if this is an ok idea or if i should find another way to deal with it..thanks!

To be honest don't make out with someone when your drunk. Sure, you may losen up, but you may end up going futher than you want to. Aside from that, you could end up hooking up with someone you wouldn't want to. It's just a bad idea and if you're with someone that truly loves you, you won't have to be drunk to make them happy.

Others have provided some of the advice I was going to, but there is another thing to touch on.

Those underage-drinking laws aren't there just because adults want to keep the booze all to themselves. They are there because alcohol can be seriously detrimental to a young person's health.

At the age of fifteen, your brain is still developing new neuron pathways and such; this is why people learn better while they are young. Alcohol stunts this process, with permanent effects. Having a drink every now and then probably won't do any harm, but "getting drunk" will.

Furthermore, your other organs and systems are also still developing. Your liver may not yet be functioning at a high enough level to metabolize ethanol fast enough to avoid alcohol poisoning. Sure, you may never have such a serious problem, but is it worth it?

Anyway, enough of the physical harm that can be done.

Remember this: Alcohol is not "liquid courage." It seems to work that way only because it slows down the higher reasoning function of the brain, thus causing you to be more impulsive and reckless. It's far better to be impulsive and reckless on your own terms, because there may come a time when you need to get your wits back around you and you don't want them addled with chemicals.

It's true that some guys find drunk girls attractive. If you want to attract immature and self-centered guys, then getting tipsy will do it. If you want to attract decent guys, then stay sober.

One more thing. We don't live in a safe world. One of the hazards of alcoholic drinks is the possibility of someone slipping something into it. Don't set yourself up as a potential victim.

This is a bad idea for many reasons. Being a sloppy drunk is never sexy. Drinking only gives one the illusion of being better than they are at anything. Drinking too much can lead to puking...not sexy. Being drunk can get you into dangerous situations with anyone. You might go too far, and regret the whole thing. Making out should be a totally wonderful experience with the right person, not just anyone. If you have to get drunk to muster up the confidence, it is a sign you are definately not ready. You do not have to know what you are doing to make-out. You pretty much do what you want to...if you are both enjoying it. What may be good for one person may not be for the next, so communication is key. To really communicate you need to be with someone you feel close and loving with, someone you can talk and laugh with easily. If that person has not come along yet, then it is worth waiting until he does. You will want to be wide-awake sober and not miss a moment of the experience with the right person at the right time...everything worth having is worth waiting for and doing right. I'm not saying you have to wait for marriage, just hold out for true love. Anything less will often make a girl feel cheap and used afterwards and not be memorable in a good way. Making out at random is not glamorous like the media portrays it to be.
