    With sobriety comes all sorts of extra benefits. Among these benefits is that you will more attractive to others. Here are 9 ways being sober makes you more attractive!

    Many people are starting strong this year with their New Year's Resolutions - a very popular one being getting sober, like with Sober January all over social media right now.

    Whatever your reason for drying out this week, this month, this year or forever - there is no doubt that being sober makes you more attractive.

    9 Ways Being Sober Makes You More Attractive

    9 Ways Being Sober Makes You More Attractive

    1. You Look Better

    Drinking and drug use can significantly damage not only your body but your appearance, too. Substance users often dress and groom themselves poorly.

    You can also develop a paunch and your face can become puffy, too.

    What's more, your eyes can develop dark circles underneath them as well as bags, and they can lose their spark. But all this can go away once you are sober.

    9 Ways Being Sober Makes You More Attractive

    1. You Are In Control of Your Speech

    Those suffering from substance abuse often say things they would not normally say.

    While some may think that this makes them come across cute, it usually does quite the opposite. It can turn someone off, especially if the offhanded comments are made in this person's direction.

    But sober people generally do not have this problem. You further will not forget what you said the next morning, avoiding arguments and other situations that can make you seem unattractive.

    1. You Are In Control of Your Behavior

    Just as how people who are under the influence of alcohol and drugs can sometimes say the wrong thing, they can also do the wrong thing, too. Often people with substance abuse have no control over their actions and engage in lewd behavior that can be very unattractive, to say the least.

    But when you are sober, you are in control over your actions and more attractive to others.

    1. You Are More Financially Stable

    Most people look for stability when looking to form an intimate relationship, especially financial stability. As drinking and drug use often expends lots of money and can cause people to lose their jobs and livelihoods, such behavior is rarely conducive of financial stability.

    9 Ways Being Sober Makes You More Attractive

    But once you are sober, there is no reason you cannot project the financial stability many crave.

    What are some of the other ways being sober makes you more attractive?

    1. You Are More Predictable

    Not only are people often financially unstable when abusing substances, but their behavior can also become unstable. One moment they can be happy and affable, and the very next moment they can be angry and disagreeable.

    This unpredictability can make you unattractive, but once you are sober you are more likely to become more even-keeled, which people will find more attractive.

    1. You Are More Interesting

    People who abuse substances often think that they are interesting people, but they rarely are. When you are slurring your speech, when you are constantly dozing off, when you reek of alcohol you are not making yourself interesting to anyone.

    But when you are sober you can let your true self shine, and this people will find far more interesting.

    1. You Are Healthier and Stronger

    Being sick is never particularly attractive, and those abusing substances often suffer from a slew of health-related issues due to the damage they are causing their bodies.

    But once you are sober, you will naturally become healthier and more attractive. This could also make you stronger, which is always attractive.

    9 Ways Being Sober Makes You More Attractive

    1. You Have More Confidence

    Having confidence in yourself is one of the most important qualities when it comes to being attractive to others. While many think that using substances gives them this confidence, it is only a false sense of it.

    A sense that will never last. Instead, it makes you look more insecure and more unattractive. But after you become sober, you can project real self-confidence. Confidence that comes from overcoming your addiction.

    1. You Are More Honest

    When abusing substances, people often have difficulty in being truthful. Dishonesty is something that is never attractive, as people need to know that you are someone they can trust and count on before entering a relationship with you.

    By becoming sober, this is just one more unflattering quality that will fall by the waist side, making you far more attractive.
