Reply to comment by Edard_Flanders in Tifu by ruining my relationship and a special night by Freerz

I suspect that OP was not drugged. I don’t know how big of a person they are but it looks like they had 5 drinks in 4 hours.

  • glass of champagne
  • mixed drink
  • shot
  • mixed drink
  • mixed drink

It’s very possible that the drinks had more alcohol than OP expected.

I know adults who don’t drink often, myself included, and that much alcohol would absolutely have me wasted.

Unless OP is an alcoholic with a high tolerance I’d def say it’s the alcohol

Except.....you forget that your body is constantly metabolizing....1 sec Google shows that the avg male metabolizes alcohol at a rate of 0.015 g/100mL/hour, which is the same as reducing your BAC level by 0.015 per hour.

It shows a shot can increase BAC by .02 -.04 Let's assume op is in the middle at .03 rise for every drink.

So...

5 drinks x .03 = BAC of 0.15

Then subtract the .015 burned off every hour..

0.15 - 4 x 0.015 (old school order of operations you fuckers!!) = a end of night BAC of 0.09

0.09 while over the driving limit is most definitely NOT Black out drunk....

Somethings up....either op is confused by how much alcohol he drank or something else is going on

ALSO!!! I find it suspect that GF said she thought it was a psychotic episode....NOT you dumbass drank too much and turned crazy. This indicates to me its not his normal drinking/drunk behavior

Right? Some of us can drink that in an hour and be relatively fine…

I’m a woman and rarely drink, and while this much this fast would get me drunk, it wouldn’t get me blackout drunk.

That is odd... I kinda wonder if she did it so she could go off with someone else (if you know what I mean)

Another thought I had was that someone "wanted" his gf, spiked a drink, and OP got said drink.

Lol throwing the word alcoholic around is pretty clumsy, besides you’re just trying to be a douche. OP already said it’s nowhere near his limit, therefore we already know he can drink more than he did.

You believe the DARE cops too?

I never experienced DARE so I don’t know what DARE cops say. I’m going to guess not considering I grow and use cannabis.

My experience with alcohol is that many people think they know their limit but actually don’t. Usually they base their limit on their drink of choice at their watering hole of choice. That may be at home or at a bar. With beer it is fairly easy to gauge your limit but with mixed drinks it absolutely is more difficult due to the nature of different bartenders pouring heavy or light depending on mood and training. Some bar tenders pour heavy thinking that a stiff drink will get them a bigger tip whereas others pour light assuming that the patrons will order more drinks.

Not to mention the fact that alcohol tolerance is circumstantial. One person may not show any signs of intoxication with a BAC of .08 and another person might appear heavily intoxicated at .08.

If OP had been drugged they likely would have felt extremely groggy and confused when they woke up. Waking up without a hangover is not a sign of being roofied.

When I was 110 lbs, 5 drinks in 2 hours wouldn’t even get me blackout. I was extremely lightweight compared to everyone I known…

And we are talking about 185 lbs, no medications, ate well, someone who drinks… Op was either drugged or had a breakdown.

Please go see a doctor op, it’s always a good thing to double check. Girlfriend prolly was shocked and confused. Hopefully she’ll overcome that and support you to seek help

Alcohol tolerance is not static, there’s a variety of factors that affect tolerance as well as absorption rate. When I was drinking daily I was able to take 5 shots in a row just fine in the middle of the day without blacking out. Doesn’t mean I wouldn’t be blackout drunk if I took 5 shots now at the same weight given that I drink 1-2 beers once or twice a year, almost always the second one is because the first one got warm. It’s not uncommon for people to overestimate their tolerance to alcohol.

You're assuming a single drink has "a single drink" in terms of servings of alcohol. Some drinks, like a Long Island Iced Tea or a 4 horsemen can have 4-6 servings of alcohol in a single drink.
