Yeah, definitely more mortifying

With the festive season it probably would've gone down without too much awkwardness and just added to the hilarity.

Life's too short.

Facepalms are like a high 5 for the face :')

I wanted to apologize to her but she did not want to hear an apology. She said to leave her alone so I did. While she hasn't blocked me anywhere, I am pretty sure she trusts me to just not text her and she has deleted me from various social media platforms, probably so that she doesn't have to see my name anymore which is understandable. As suggested in another comment, I will in due time prepare a formal and in-depth apology where I plan to detail what exactly I am sorry for (so as to make clear that I understand all of the mistakes that led to this) and where I will reassure here that she only has to read it if she some day decides to and that the apology letter does not mean that she will have to hear from me again. Stopping drinking is definitely something I will attempt and I have been thinking about other ways to move forward and better myself.

It was her way to defend herself safely from a person who doesn't understand consent, was drunk and unpredictable, and could over power her. She didn't want you to touch her chest but you were touching her vagina which was scarier and wuickly heading towards rape in her eyes, or fingering which is extremely violating and physically violent. She told you to touch her chest as a way to stop you from raping or assaulting her further without reacting violently in anger at her rejecting you. Not because she WANTED you to touch her chest. It was just the safer of the two assaults.

There isn't excuse for cheating, you're absolutely right and my comment surely didn't mean to defend his actions or justify them. Still seems to me that a lot of men are more shamed about their virginity the older they get. Being self-confident on that area too helps finding a companion too so eventhough someone finding a love 'dont mind the virginity', it's somewhat plausible that the experience in sex increases self-confidency, and that often the key to find someone to love. It's not anyone's fault.
