    Oh God, someone stop me...

    Right - 1 bottle of red wine later and I'm about to whisper sweet nothings via text to my significant other.

    You know, something along the lines of, 'You complete me' or - 'Hey babe; Google the lyrics to Amazed by Lone Star - that's you, that is' (vomit).

    For the love of God, will someone please bring me to my senses? I mean, I'll never live it down and he's got a big enough head as it is!!!

    Fanks!

    Lol Joey I can totally sympathise with this one. I have done it many a time. My drunken text messages and voicemails are a running joke between myself and OH. I dont think there is anything wrong with saying how you feel though(and I'm sure it will make his day/night!) however, if you are even the slightest bit concerned about sending it, then step away from the phone!!!!

    On second thoughts, best not ask me. I have had a bottle of rose myself! x

    I've had no booze (saving it for tomorrow when I defrost) but am tempted to do the same just coz I can.......and he won't read it for a week as hes on ex and not taken his phone.
    Heaven wont have me, hell is scared I'll take over. Time for the pub!

    On the move this weekend. Not sure yet where I'm going or when I'll get there.....hope theres enough vodka in the car.

    Big lol! When I first met my OH I got rather drunk and practically asked him to marry me. OMG, I nearly died of humiliation the next day. ops:

    However, at 0345 this morning, I get a text - he has just finished an exercise somewhere and was out with the lads and it read, 'Kive Youbs'. I think it was meant to say Love You!!!

    Thank fook for that. Its not just me. Phone + wine, pen + wine, phone + wine, ebluey + wine........ Anything and wine...Erm ooops. But hey, sure they love it really.... x Im thinking maybe the wine should have a warning label. But it makes my OH laugh when he gets my messages and thankfully he takes it well. I tend to only say what I mean only in a slightly less coherent way and it makes his day repeating it back and laughing lots. :O)

    If ya mean it, say it. x If you say it and didnt mean it, blame the wine. x

    And the rest of us are glad that someone has switched their phone off....the penguins will thank them though.

    Well, I'm proud to say I resisted. I'm seeing him soon so thought I'd say it to his face!

    'How mature of you' I hear you all cry.

    Which would be great if I hadn't sunk an entire bottle of Merlot with no tea on a school night. When I had to be up at 5am. Silly Joey.

    I had a great conversation with my OH on Christmas Eve last year, I don't remember a word of it but he found it highly amusing! I like the mystery of not knowing what I actually said, much better than the shame of reading through my outbox the next day once sober....

    Ah yes... the finger walk of shame.

    For me, it tends to go something like this.

    Get absolutely bladdered.

    Pass out. Ideally in bed, but other suitable locations include on the couch, on the lounge floor, on the bathroom floor with head balanced over toilet, or potentially at the bus stop.

    Wake up a few hours later just knowing that if you raise your head so much as one inch, you're going to blow chunks.

    Realise with a heavy heart that you may or may not have sent inappropriate messages to absolutely everyone in your phone/address book including the ex whose number you keep meaning to delete

    Weigh up the need to check just how much of a doofus you've been the night before with the knowledge that by moving to check your mobile phone, things aren't going to end well!!

    Decide you need to check. Generally this is followed by loud groans and (in my case) the vow that I will never ever get that drunk again

    Rinse and repeat the next weekend.

    Now whenever I give in to the temptation of drunken texting, even my drunk-self knows to delete my sent messages before I crash out so I don't have to face them in the morning.

    It's much better this way and I can carry on in happy oblivion until the next time!!

    OMG A bit northern. I need to learn a lesson from you!

    Have found a new way round this, have started a diary type thing and after much pissedness (is that a word) I scribble my thoughts in it and then I can laugh at myself in the morning :O)

    Now the question is, will I let him see it on his return....... mmmm? maybe not.

    There have been occassions when Ive text the wrong person. I so should not be allowed a mobile when drunk ever.
