it's kind of a long story but i basically got ignored and essentially abandoned by a friend at a party. i think it hurt mostly because it felt...familiar? as in, this has happened to me before but in a different context and it just fucking sucks in general. i really can't imagine doing that to someone, especially not someone who i consider to be a good friend...
anyways, the next day she couldn't understand why i was upset and said something along the lines of "well i didn't know i was being an asshole, i was drunk." i feel like you and i have talked about this before but i have really limited tolerance for people who use drunkenness as a get-out-of-being-a-selfish/inconsiderate-person card. yes, alcohol makes us say and do stupid/hurtful things we might not do otherwise. but i feel like it's too easy--actually, i think it's bullshit--to try and totally separate and disconnect your "real self" from your actions.
