Re: Multiple Personalities
It would worry me if I had a partner who changed drastically when he'd had a few bevvies. I'd never know which was the real man, and I'd find that scary, especially if it happened often. I certainly wouldn't sleep with someone who stunk the bedroom out, burped, farted and vomitted all night - who would?If he lost control through booze, it would make him unpredictable, and not the man I loved. If it happened frequently and he refused to recognise a problem, then I would take it as he didn't care for me enough - and I'd be off, no question about it.
If the tables were turned, I wonder how men would react if it was their wife instead?
that is the question..

My poem for the day is all about the perils of drinking too much booze. It is full of wise thoughts and stuff. One can learn so much from it.Mark's booze poem.

Re: Multiple Personalities
Some of Shakespeare's writings about drunkenness" O God, that men should put an enemy in their mouths to steal away their brains! That we should with joy, pleasance, revel, and applause transform ourselves into beasts! "..[+]
"It provokes the desire but it takes away the performance. Therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him; it sets him on and it takes him off
"O thou invisible spirit of wine, if thou hast no name to be known by, let us call thee devil."
Wm, Shakespeare 1564 -1616

THe play was stolen completely by a young JUDI DENCH playing the nurse
I have been besotted with her right up until the present some 50 years later.

Re: Multiple Personalities
I cannot drink. I used to enjoy wine... but now it just tears up my stomach and gives me the runs.. (I know, I know.. TMI) But it does so why bother? The momentary buzz is not worth it.In the past, when I could drink, I found I could be a bit nasty and over the top.. so I really didn't drink much at all.
