Hi...in my place of work there is this guy I work with who I talk to almost al the time at work but now this Friday me and my collegues went out for a drink and we really got wasted that I don't remember most of the things about later that night..

But I slept over at this guy I work with, and we had sex I really don't know what I was thinking, I was sooo high, and now I feel so guilty and embarrassed, I don't know how i can face him at work...

Should I say something or rather just shut up and forget it happened because now he is behaving like we have something and we don't and I don't want us to have anything..

What do I do?

i agree with Cerberus. have a chat to clear the air. tell this guy that you don't want anything with him, and the sex was a mistake.

Just have a chat with him before work, ask him to meet you for coffee or something. It would be a good idea to clear the air.

Try not to take the approach that what happened was a big deal though, OP, you don't want it to sound dramatic. It was just a drunken bit of fun and you want to make sure he doesn't get the wrong idea and to make things less awkward.

If you don't treat it like a big deal, then he most likely won't either. if you stroke is his ego a bit by making the night sound like it was fun but not something you want to repeat then it'll be a lot less awkward. You can also tell him you'd like some discretion about it too if you like.

OP it was just a drunken hook up, no reason to feel guilty or embarrassed, just have a chat with him.

“ Hi (guy’s name), I want to talk to you about that night. What happen with us should not have happened, and I do not want it happening again. Sorry.”

No matter how it’s done it will hurt if he thinks you have something going. But the truth is always best.
