Ok so need everyones honest opinion. If two people meet at a party and drunkly hookup, is there ever a chance these two people can get together again down the road?

I had drunk sex this weekend and feel really stupid right now; feel as though I really messed up and this guy is going to have no respect for me now.

No it is not possible. It has nothing with respect or anything. You both wanted sex and you both got it. So move on.

Dan Savage says yes, and I generally agree with whatever he says, but I am really not sure about that. I think if the two of you get along without being drunk or having sex, you have a good shot.

I dont think your any more or less likely to get together with that person. Id also discourage you from trying to get together just because you had drunken sex. Chalk it up as a learning experience, and also make sure you were "safe", if not you should get std testing and pregnancy testing/morning after.

Next time be more conscious about your drinking habits. You should never drink so much you lose all control and do things you regret.

Perhaps you could just let him know that things "got a little out of hand" last night from the alcohol, and you would like to see him again on a sober level, maybe lunch, or dinner? Coffee?

Well, anything is possible. Maybe you two are both nothing like that and made a drunken mistake that you both regret. Maybe you meet later under different circumstances. I won't say it never happens because I'm sure sometimes it does...

...but if you're asking me to guess whether this particular situation will turn out that way? I'd guess it's not too likely. There's the possibility that this guy viewed you as nothing more than some random girl to sleep with. Then you have to consider whether he is looking for something serious in his life right now anyway. Then you have to consider if sleeping with him right away is a turn-off. For some guys, it isn't, but for others, they may subconsciously lose respect for you, or assume you do that with every guy in town.

So, I guess I would expect nothing and then be pleasantly surprised if he does contact you. If he happens to call, take some time to think through how you feel about this and what you want. If you are looking for a relationship eventually, you might consider bringing that up casually to see how he reacts. There's the danger that he may only be calling because he thinks you will be willing to sleep with him every time and he doesn't have to put any effort into dating you, not because he genuinely likes you and wants a relationship. So, if he does want to see you again, you might arrange to have a date where sex isn't really feasible (like meet at Starbucks in the afternoon and then have plans so you can't go back to someone's place) and see how he reacts. That may show you whether he's more interested in getting to know you or looking for a hookup. Good luck.

Honestly serious relationship-wise I think it has been scarred. Other than that having casual sex with that person could still be in the mix.

There is a chance, but it lies somewhere between none and slim. As a guy, I would expect that he'll probably try to get you drunk next time, thinking it will increase his chances of a repeat performance.

Don't beat yourself up about it. People have been having drunk sex since the discovery of alcohol. Chalk this one up to experience, and remember it the next time.

Just because two people have a few drinks and end up in the sack doesn't mean that they couldn't have a great relationship, in fact I don't even see that as being a significant factor one way or the other. When the couple is sober the next day things might work out for them or perhaps not. I just think it's foolish to accept the notion that because you've given into your sexual desires that suddenly there is some sort of void between you which can never be overcome.
