This can happen to anyone, but, when we drink we can sometimes lose control of our actions and we aren't as guarded. Either you aren't sure what happened between you and him or you know exactly what happened. I'd say you're more embarrassed than anything, and obviously wonder what the guy thinks of you. Take it slow and easy and wait and see if you get any response from him. If not, then have the guts to approach him and apologize and tell him that the way you acted at the party was not like you at all. Get yourself off the hook before you get a bad reputation. I wouldn't be honest if I didn't say you'd better watch your drinking and behavior and only because of "date rape drugs" that are running rampid out there. You are a prime target for this. One can drink, but NEVER leave your drink sitting on a table or bar if you are dancing or visiting friends at another table, and NEVER accept a free drink from a guy (you just never know what's in it.) If you think I'm kidding get the stats of "date rape drug cases" from your local police. Marcy Marcy

Socks are worn to keep your feet warm. On a cold winter's day you couldn't just go outside with freezing feet and a pair of shoes! Your toes would fall off. Secondly, Blisters could occur because your bare feet are rubbing against your shoes. It would be very uncomfortable!
People wear socks because your feet are the second most important part, (only next to the head) where heat is released. Socks keep heat in, as well as offer slight protection for your feet.
