Heartwarming Stories About Times Drunk Girls Were Actual Angels
There is something sacred about being a drunk girl in the bathroom at a bar, or being at a party surrounded by girls. While the occasional meanie comes around, drunk girls are generally the kindest, sweetest people I have ever interacted with.
I've had girls give me pep-talks in the bathroom, sing ABBA together, and gush about how beautiful we all are—I even met one of my close friends when she was crying in a pub bathroom. Drunk girls just have the unique ability to adore each other in a genuine, beautiful way. Here are some stories that prove that drunk girls can be actual angels.
We Truly Get Overwhelmed By Each Other's Beauty
Even though I am (tragically) attracted to males, I still notice that other women are just so beautiful. I love that our instinct while drunk is to stand in awe of how gorgeous other girls are.
Sometimes Our Methods Are Interesting, But So Pure
I absolutely love this story, because this one drunk girl saw another girl in need and immediately acted instinctively. We will probably never know what compelled her to sing "Three Little Birds", but that does not matter.
Girls Don't Care If You've Just Met—They Want You To Be Okay
Once again, rationality didn't drive this interaction, but you know what did? The need and desire to make sure all the girls around her were thriving, not just surviving, one "peanut peanut" at a time.
Girl Just Gets It
I can imagine this girl running up the stairs and riffling through some guy's drawers trying to find a t-shirt, and then she spots a cat. She makes a game-time decision that the puking girl needs the kitten, and she was probably right.
Teamwork Makes The Dream Work
For some reason, girls just braid other girls' hair when we're drunk. One time I was out and a girl asked me to french braid her hair because it was wet from the rain. We're really good friends now.
Drunk Girls Deserve Engineering Degrees
Drunk women are some of the most innovative and brilliant problem solvers I have seen in action. One girl just needs to mention something is wrong with her outfit and a group of women will come to her aide.
We Become Attached Very Quickly
Other girls' kindness just sends me when I'm drunk. One time a girl took the elastic out of her hair so that I could put mine into a ponytail and I told her that I would die for her.
The Drive To Show How Much We Appreciate Each Other Is Intense
Getting serenaded by a guy is so overrated. What I really want is for a group of drunk girls in public to decide that I'm pretty and sing to me. That is the ultimate compliment.
Who Needs A Hero When We Have These Everday Heroines In Bars?
There is such a beautiful sense of unity in the girls bathroom. We will help any stranger out without blinking an eye. We'll stand guard while they pee. We'll tell them that the guy who is being mean to her is a jerk and we'll fight him. It's basically a utopia.
The Healing Power Of Drunk Girls
It doesn't matter that she didn't heal the physical wound mark; this story has healed my soul. While I never want a man to kiss my shoulder unexpectedly, I think I would cry if a girl did this to me.
We Get So Excited When We Match With Someone Else
Can we kill the myth that women hate other women who wear the same clothes as them? I've literally seen girls have photoshoots in the bathroom because they were wearing the same shirt. It's all love.
Seems Like A Series Of Fortunate Events To Me
Sometimes drunk girls have a very specific reason for their actions, and sometimes there is no logical explanation behind why they decide to do something, but that doesn't make the experience any less magical.
The Need To Give A Compliment Is Unbearable
Everyday, I think of at least 15 compliments that I could say about women around me, but stay quiet. However, drunk me has to sprint across the dance floor to tell a girl that she has pretty freckles. I just have to.
We're Extra Emotional, But In A Good Way
There are many reasons why a girl might cry while drunk, but there is nothing more wholesome than when a girl cries because she's so amazed by how beautiful another girl is.
The Chaos Is Part Of The Charm
I hate the phrase "drunk actions/words are just sober thoughts" because I've never really found it to be true. The number of girls I know who are possessed by a different drunk persona is unreal. My friend would never eat breadsticks in the shower while sober, but here she is.
We Get A Little Touchy-Feely
I don't know exactly why it happens, but all girls I know get extra touchy when drunk. We're all in the bathroom asking if we can feel the sequins on someone's sleeve or play with ruffles. Don't question it.
We're Chaotic, But Not Lawless
Drunk girls in line will always let someone who they think might be sick cut the line. Period. We even have a sixth sense that lets us know when a girl is shy about cutting despite feeling unwell, and we encourage her to do what she has to.
We Care For Any Random Stranger
I've never been to a bar or party where a girl has been sick and no one has tried to help out. Every time, a group of girls, most of which don't know each other, flock to provide her care without prompting.
It's The Effort That Matters
I'm not sure how this girl thought that a leaf would help her, but the fact that she gave it—the gesture itself—is so heartwarmingly pure that I bet it actually did lift the crying girl's mood.
These Moments Can Really Have Impact
It's easy for a lot of people to trivialize the experiences of young women while they're drunk, but these moments can really have long-term effects. I myself, and many others I know, have had a monumental "drunk girl" moment that changed part of our life, or made us strive to be kinder.
Stay golden, drunk girls of the world.
