    I was wondering, did any of you come out to someone while you had been drinking? And how did you feel about it the day after?

    I can start with myself. I was at a party when I was 19, and I had of course been drinking. We had been talking about something about hot guys or something, and I didn't really say anything. Then out of the blue I just asked one of my friend to come with me, so we went down to the hallway where we would be out of earshot, and I just straight out said it "I'm gay" It went well, even if it wasn't exactly how I had first wanted to tell someone. We went outside for a walk, and just talked, while the other people at the party got mad because we just walked out not saying anything. The same night I also came out to another girl which I had only met one time prior to this party. I'll admit I was a lot more drunk at this point, I don't regret it though as we are very close friends today.

    No although I'm always paranoid about this. Even when I've gottwn blackout drunk, I seem to be so guarding of my sexuality that there's no way it's coming out.

    I came out to about half the people while drinking. Then again, its college. When am I not drinking?

    Purp derives from the drink that turned my life around 180 degrees. (Grape vodka, lol :slight_smile:)

    Yes, I've done this and I didn't regret it.

    Yep. Pretty much.

    Sort of like that. I don't recall exactly what I said to my mum, but I was blind drunk - it was evening and I had been drinking all day long. I remember being in floods of tears. Maybe not the best way to go about things, but I would never have done it sober, and so I guess in the long run it was all to the good.

    Hm... I'd been drinking the first time I came out, but I wasn't drunk. I felt giddy right after saying it, and for a couple days afterward, actually.

    It's the only way to do it haha, at first at least. Came out to my dad when I was wasted even which probably wasn't the best way but still, if that's what it takes then why not
