Alcohol merely allows a person to act on, or to verbally express, something that was already lurking in their subconscious.
Hence the old latin saying, "En vino es veritas"
Or, "In wine there is truth."

pretty much. But alcohol also has the tendency to exaggerate the truth as well
I think alcohol can make people do things they wouldn't normally do, or act in ways that contradict their normal personalities. I had a friend who I got along with great...at least until she started drinking. She would get herself into trouble with guys, or by doing random crazy stuff, and would proceed to assault me/curse me out when I was trying to rescue her from said situation (i.e. random guys trying to take her home with them, attempted breaking and entering....ugh). She never really understood how bad she was under the influence and I had to stop spending time with her if there was the possibility she was going to drink. I have done some out of character things whilst under the influence as well....
But - it doesn't take more than a few instances of drinking to figure out what your limit is and how you react to drinking. Irresponsible people continue to make the same choice to drink, and are therefore at fault for what comes of it.
Ok, maybe I have watched too much Jerry Springer in my day but I can't believe that people STILL use this excuse!
I have always said alcohol is "liquid courage". It makes some people say or do things they "thought about or wanted to do" but would not under normal circumstances.
Would you buy this? Could you forgive and move on with that person if they did something like cheated or said something awful to you under the influence of alcohol?
That's why I never drink. Under the influence, I can become this cathartic d!ck
I have been so drunk I couldn’t see straight yet still managed to say NO if some guy was trying to get into my pants. Being drunk is no excuse.
Do you want to continue in a relationship with someone who is going to be thinking the worst and calling you everytime go out drinking with the boys in future??
Nope, didn’t think so. Once the trust is gone, it’s over.
It's possible. However, your fundamental belief system or disposition may take control and dictate the decision, rather than rational response.
