Why do people say that when you are drunk,,you see and talk the truth?

There is a Latin phrase, "In vino veritas", meaning, "in wine there is truth." The idea is that alchohol tends to remove inhibitions and loosen the tongue a bit. People under the influence will say things, and express feelings and opinions they normally would keep to themselves.

Drinking loosens inhibitions, allowing people to say and do things they normally wouldn't when sober.

because most people cant/ don't want to handle the truth. but there is a difference from being honest and just rude. so your going to have to find out when you need to shut your mouth and when to spice up the truth a little

William Shakespeare said it a lot better than I can: "And this above all, to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night, the day, thou canst not then be false to any man". Just be honest and tell the truth. Not mean , or ugly, but with tact and compassion.......the honest truth. That's all people want.....truth.

The true is not simple.\n\nSometimes we lie because it is uncontrolable. If I want   impress my date with subtle things. I don't lie much. That is not a lie. When I lie to make myself look good is usually when I stretch the truth a little. Example: I will say I am graduating soon, but in reality I still have a few semesters to go. \n\nI do it to not make myself look bad. To me, it is almost like there is a light switch when talking to someone. Say something they don't like and the light turns off and you are in the dark. If you say something that make you look good, the light turns on. I think that women are careful listeners. They are examining our every word and move. I don't want to scare anyone away. \n\nI know lying is not good, but it really does help a guy to have a chance. For some, if all they told was the truth, they will not get any further than hello. \n\nNow let's talk about somthing close to lying. How about makeup and plastic surgery. I compare these two as lying and literally stretching the truth.

it is a way to release energy - sexual and otherwise - in a place where you will not be judged.  also, everyone else is so drunk nobody will likely remember!

Alcohol can lower inhibitions, so I guess for some people that means bringing out their true nature.  Some people just use being drunk as an excuse to be a jerk or have sex or whatever.

i used to drink and i am one of those nice people. it is because i am always nice and passive but when i am around people who tend to annoy me and upset me when i was not drunk then i get a buzz going and they want my true and honest opinion i let them know it with brutal honesty. like i had this permiscous friend. she was for ever going on about all these guys and calling other women who***s and what not. u know how some women can be. i listened to her and her ways etc.. she was not necesarilly a bad person but when i had gotten a buzz going she kept talking and putting others down. i got so angry and i told her off. the best thing to do is to either stop drinking when around people who you know annoy you. basically the ones that you would like to say something to but are to polite to. or just drink around people who are on your good side. perhaps people yo do not know at a bar or something. i used to drink by myself at home. that way i could enjoy my music alone. but as far as patching p yor friend ship u cold lie and tell her you did not mean what ever it is u said ur very sorry and it will never happen again. or yo could say telling you what i really feel while drunk is a mistake but i did mean it in this way. i am not sure what u said. why u said it. so if i knew it would be easier to give u a solution but those are the two that work best for either senerio. the spanish have a saying that you never believe a person when drunk and the french say that true feelings are revealed when a person is drunk. however i find this to be true in both perspectives because situations should always be considered. be careful and do not do this again. drink responsibly next time. take care.

Yes I get drunk with my partner, and yes we sometimes fight, just like we would fight had we not been drinking, but you tend to say things you dont really mean when your drinking so maybe that's why he's mad still.  Really think about what you say when your fighting, somethings are better left unsaid.

There is no nice way to say bad things. But their behavior is bad so go ahead and tell them, without laughing or anything-"clean up after you just I clean up after me." they'll think you're drank but they will get the message or you will need to get another room as some humans are really animals. People always obey and never grant-don't sya your point as a "wish" but make it sound like a "law." Wait a sec hahahaha. Have them read these answers hahahaha

People do really stupid things when they are drinking or on drugs.\n\nYou did a crazy thing, but I don't think you are crazy.\n\nBy your reaction, you would not do this being sober and sane.

people speak how they feel at the time, even speak what they sub-consiously think..not realizing it...like in a conversation in an instant without thinking about it your words are being spoken.when your drunk the truth rolls of your tongue easily...like you open up/let you hair down after a few beers...but your bf sounds like he needs your assurance that you only have eyes for him...show him who you are for him

Those that lie are ignorant that the truth shall set them free, and they instead get trapped in a web that only gets darker and darker as time goes by, and they end up with very MESSY lives!  Only WHITE lies are okay.  Those that only are uttered so as not to hurt another's feelings who might take the truth too strongly.  However, the truth is always best, altho there are many ways of telling it (gently or BLUNTLY) The truth shall set you free because YOU will know to yourself that YOU are reliable and trustworthy to anybody who comes in contact with you, and the wise will see it in you and appreciate YOUR integrity, and the friendships you establish will be wise ones  And you also learn to SEE when others are lying to you and deal with them accordingly.
