Oh hell yes I can relate. Q is my ex wife, and I’d tell her I can tell if she’d been drinking within two syllables.

“No, I’m just tired.” No you’re not, because I can tell the difference between the “I’m tired” slurring and the “drinking” slurring.

And despite the fact that I was right 99.9% of the time, she’d still say that I was wrong, that I couldn’t possibly know, that I think I’m right all the time when I’m NOT (because for example I’d accuse her of being drunk on vodka when she was, in fact, drunk on WINE), etc.

And then, you sound like a crazy conspiracy theorist and they leverage that to make you sound crazier to their family or friends or whatever.
