I'm wondering because, although my boyfriend is always very physically affectionate - hugging me, kissing me, holding my hand all the time - he tends not to say affectionate things unless he's had a few drinks. We've been together for around 8 months and he has told me he loves me twice, both times after he'd been drinking. He tells me I'm gorgeous all the time, but saves the more specific compliments, like that he's proud of me for all I've achieved in my life, for when he's tipsy. At the moment he's away with his brother for a few days and last night he called me at 2 am because he just had to talk to me. He asked me to move in with him and told me he missed me and loves me. He usually apologizes in the morning for getting so emotional on me and I assure him it's ok with me, but still that's always the end of it. So would you take these things seriously or not?

The alcohol helps him overcome his inhibitions about declaring his affection for you.....
So, yes he has declared his real feelings for you....

I am so the same way when I drink. I get really emotional and I can tell you that for me its usually very true what I am saying. He may feel nervous without those few drinks that you won't like what he is saying and he's nervous. I do beleive that what people say when they are drunk but not too drunk are what they really mean but I can be far more exagerated then the person would want it to be.
I think that he really feels that way about you and I don't know why he's apologizing unless its for waking you up. What he should be doing is saying that he loves you that much even though he can only express it when he has been drinking.
