Why my boyfriend gets emotional when he's drunk?

Question

shakeZ · Accepted Answer

His emotions shouldn’t be your concern enough to post on here wondering why he has emotions when he’s drunk like it’s a problem. Get up and take care of yourself.

Do something for you or both of you and do activities after you eat. If you’re recieving emotions it’s probably because you have emotions. It’s a 2 way street. drinking with him will make him think you’re hanging out together.

It’s your job to make sure he’s happy if his emotions are to you, ideally you would smile give him a kiss and make some food then do something fun. But these days girls don’t do that. They pull away when a mortal shows emotions XD. be the change you wish to see

It's not a male or female thing... some people just act that way when they drink. I turn into a joker and I just make non-stop jokes... and I'm a bit of a dick. Some people are much different when they drink though. My friend turns into a complete asshole and you'd think he's a psycho... well... he is when he drinks, but at least he's also stupid when he drinks. From what I've been told that's the lizard part of our brains... because we numb the prefrontal cortex... the thinking meat.

Maybe he feels as though he has to control his emotions (because society often expects men to, or for whatever reason) and he lets his guard down when he’s drinking.
Also, lowered inhibition is an effect of drinking.
I’m pretty reserved but when I drink, I’m much more friendly. I make friends with everyone around.

Alcohol lowers inhibitions... So essentially the truth comes out when you're drunk. It's also a depressant so it relaxes your body which can make you feel more comfortable speaking about things you otherwise wouldn't

FilmGuy93 · Answer

Do you not know how alcohol works? lol

Guy13 · Answer

Sometimes that’s the only way guys let their guards down. It is not a healthy habit to use drugs and alcohol as a coping mechanism. This is how alcoholics are made.

Is there anyway to urge him to communicate when sober. It sounds like he needs reassurance to me.

Kinkyhubby · Answer

Because alcohol feed off your feeling. Sometimes it let's down their guard, and speak more freely. So if you are happy for become happier and have a time. If your in a bad mood, sometime you go into a darker place or want to fight. If you have some things on your mind you may get more emotional

purplepoppy · Answer

You're not giving any back ground. Is this once in a blue moon or a daily thing? If it's daily then dump him, there's no shortage of decent sober replacements

AdithyaR · Answer

Alcohol works as an inhibitor, so when people get drunk, most of the inner thoughts and emotions rise up. So if he's very emotional when drunk, he's probably just suppressing a lot of emotions when he's sober.

slatyb · Answer

Because alcohol is reduces inhibitions. He says things he feels but is afraid to say when he's sober.

SnoopBean9110 · Answer

There are three types of drunk and I don’t know why people act these ways

happy: anything that makes you happy you do, joke, laugh, etc.

angry: violent, perhaps “vengeful” or revenge they meant

sad: just sad

AydenHazor · Answer

Because he's been taught that he needs to tries his emotions to be a man but when his inhibitions are reduced by being drunk they surge forth all the stronger for not being expressed regularly and healthily

Ms_Facesitter · Answer

Because he drinks too much. Alcohol tends to change people a bit when consumed too much in a short time.

GoodGuyBreakingBad · Answer

This is common when one is a drinker, maybe suggest he get some therapy.

LiamJHayden · Answer

He probably feels unavailable to do so when sober. Likely brought up with the idea that is was not masculine.
