Ever regret hooking up with someone?

[Brandon21]

This was the first time I hooked up with someone who I wasn't into at all. I had drank a lot of alcohol that night so inhibitions were down and it isn't the first time I had been really drunk around this girl but for whatever reason it happened.

I was super depressed the next day, I regret doing it and I feel very strange about it, like I settled for something Iess of what deserve (sounds very stuck-up but I'm not trying to be). I'm not at all attracted to this girl, what happened means nothing to me and I don't know how to deal with this.

To top it all off, it made me think of my ex a lot. Basically she had just done a complete 180 and decided to not talk at all anymore and the day after I hooked up with this other girl it had been a month since I've heard from her at all. I miss her a ton all over again and it's terrible because I thought I had made lots of progress on moving on from her. Anyone been in this situation before, how did you cope/deal with it?

I hooked up with a guy once in order to get over another guy. I don't ever do this. It's not like me. The rebound guy knew about my ex, so I don't feel bad about that - but I felt like a common whore. I had NO feelings for the rebound guy. I also felt that he was unattractive and less than personable. To top it all off, rebound guy attached himself to me for the next month, so I saw him all the time. For a month, my life was a vortex of depression until I came to terms with it, and told rebound guy to shoo.

Honestly, I just told myself, "It was a mistake. You need to move on. You wanted affection that night, and it may not have turned out the way you had hoped, but you need to get over it." I evaluated myself, figured out what I want from relationships, and resolved to keep myself in control and act only on that. For me personally, I need commitment. I don't just hook up with anyone. And I only commit myself to a guy I like, both in personality and physically. So from that day forward, I resolved to really like the guy before I did anything with him. This means that for the past five months I've been single and haven't gotten any action, but I'm much happier with myself in the long run.

Thank you, I was trying to tell myself this but hearing someone else say it makes a world of a difference!

No, never. It always goes really smooth for me. I use specialised hooking up websites like
