Jamesy!! Never doubt yourself. You are adorable. When girls are knackered, they're no longer worried about their appearance or whether or not they're interesting. They're just out for some fun and aren't concerned with being judged. If you're looking for dates, don't search for a date among the "knackered". It's more fun to get to know someone, date them for a bit and finally get knackered together. When I was young, I was cute too. I enjoyed people more when "they" were drunk because they were less worried about their "own" shortcomings and actually were more fun to be around. Other times they viewed themselves as simply not good enough, not rich enough, not smart enough - the list goes on and on!! Believe me, when some people aren't knackered, you'll notice their shortcomings clearly. That's why they get that knackered in the first place - it's a break from being stuck in themselves and accepting their personal realities. If you ever knew an alcoholic that finally chose sobriety, they are SEVERELY critical of themselves once sober - same as they were before they started drinking. The alcohol made them accept themselves more because those around them or society as a whole made them feel quite unacceptable. Sometimes they themselves are convinced that they are flawed even if no one else thought so. Unfortunately, the dependence on a substance is not compatible with a healthy lifestyle. So, they must embrace serenity:
“Lord grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.”
