To reveal an emotion like love, anger, or hurt towards the recipient To feel confident asking for a hookup, a date, or to make social plans To feel less accountability for their words and actions
Aim for a time when he’s still awake. Anywhere between 11PM and 1AM is a solid bet (or even later on the weekends).
“Tipsy” is a good mindset to be in. This is where you’re open and creative but still able to hold a conversation. Playing “super drunk” might come off as “I need help” or “come pick me up,” so be careful you don’t inspire your guy to come rescue you.
Use “We need to talk. ” or “I need to tell you something. Now. ” to confront him about something. To flirt, use a silly question like “Should I have another margarita right now? You decide!” or tell him you’re thinking about him, like “Just remembered how goofy you looked carrying that refrigerator box yesterday” When in doubt, go for a bombastic “I miss you!!!” or remind him of something you did together like “Omg I just passed that horrible restaurant Shannon dragged us too lol” For a one-night stand, go straight to the classic “you should come over tonight” or “we should meet up later ;)”
“lol sorry that was bad, I’m a little drunk” “award for worst joke goes to meeeeeee” A funny GIF or meme of an awkward smile or hysterical laughter
There’s a chance you’ll make a typo here and there anyway, so consider leaving those natural mistakes in. Just be sparing with them. Use excessive punctuation and emojis to put that drunk energy in your text, or try some sentence fragments instead of elaborate prose.
“I’m not druuuuunk I’m just a little tipsy” “psshh I’m just having a little fun!” “no!!!! 😜”
Drunk talks about serious topics aren’t a great idea. Your guy won’t fully believe what you’re saying, or might use “you’re just saying that because you’re drunk” as a counterargument. Shorter conversations also give you less chances to slip up and expose your drunk act.
If you stop texting all of a sudden, he might think you’re in trouble and try to find you. Not only will you be busted, but he’ll have panicked for no reason. Use an excuse that fits your backstory like “We’re trying to find our Ubers now, talk to you later” or “Switching bars!!! Gotta go”
Skim the texts you sent as a reminder of your fake backstory. If it included a specific friend, loop them in so they don’t accidentally blow your cover.
