Stop Telling Me I’m Drunk

By

Stop telling me I’m drunk so you think you have an excuse to touch me. I don’t need you holding my hand while I get a glass of water. I don’t need you to help me sit back down. I don’t need you touching my shoulders to “help” me sit up straight. I especially don’t need you caressing my head while I dozed off.

I am not drunk.

Stop telling me I’m drunk so you have an excuse to say that I need you. Why is it so hard for you to believe something like this:

“I guess I’m just the type of girl who doesn’t need to depend on a guy” because all you said was:
“Haha yeah, right. Whatever. You’re going to eat your words.”

No matter how many times I said “I’m okay. Really”, and no matter how many times you’ve seen me move about the room soberly (going to the restroom, getting a glass of water, changing the music playlist), you insist that I need your help, like I’m a 6 year old girl who can’t decide for herself. Why?

I am not drunk.

Stop telling me I’m drunk so you have an excuse to follow me around to make sure “I’m okay.”

“Let me just stay right here beside you.”

“No, it’s okay. You can go back in. I just want to look at the sky.”

“Haha. Don’t be stupid. Should I lie beside you now?”

I am not drunk.

Stop telling me I’m drunk to come up with stories about you and I.

I didn’t tell the room about whatever non-existent past we had. I was completely aware of what I was saying — no matter how slurred they may have seemed to you. I asked one of our friends if I’ve said anything. She said:“Uhhhh…no.”

Stop putting words in my mouth.

I am not drunk.

Stop telling me I’m drunk to blame me for “coming on to you.”

I in no way “came on to you”. All I’ve said (not even remotely close to coming on is), “Come on and join the game!!!!!!” You said I kept touching you. HA. HAHAHAHA. The only touching I did was the same touching I did to everybody else – put my hands on all of your shoulders to either get your attention or to let you guys know I was passing behind you.

I am not drunk.

Stop telling me I’m drunk so that you have an excuse to criticize me about my body.

“Oh wow, you have a lot of stretch marks.”
“Your breasts look small.”
“You do squats? HAHAHA….ok, sure.”
I don’t know if you said those things hoping that I would forget them the next day.

I am not drunk.

Stop telling me I’m drunk to make my ‘NO’ sound meaningless. No, I do not want to kiss you. No, I do not want to date you. No, I do not need a hug.
“hahaha, ok. sure…..but, can I at least have a kiss?” Didn’t you just ask me that, and didn’t I just say no? I am not drunk.

Stop telling me I’m drunk to make whatever you wanted to happen justifiable.
