A woman's perception of temporary/surprise impotence?

Question:

This weekend I drank so much alcohol I wasn't able to sustain an erection during sex on Sunday.

Keep in mind that I wasn't drunk on Sunday morning, just terribly hung over from Friday and Saturday night. I'm 22 and my partner is 20.

I'm not glorifying my binge drinking here at all but it was really kind of an awful experience and I'm wondering what my partner may have thought.

We haven't been together for very long at all and this sort of thing has never happened to me before. She didn't seem to mind as I put the blame on the rather large/wierd condom...which I do hold responsible though had I been 100% it would not have been a problem.

What do you think is going through her head right now?

I'm worried that she might think it's because of herself when really...it was pretty much all on me.

How should I approach the subject?

I feel shamed, jinxed and...I feel awful...so please no put downs but also... please don't sugarcoat your answer.

Thanks

Answers:
Talk to her frankly and tell her how you feel. She may be feeling a little rejected or inadequate. Alcohol consumption can cause temporary impotence. Approach the subject by saying what you said above. You're sorry, it was the booze, not her. Reassure her and tell her you've learned your lesson. Don't lie about anything if you want her to trust you. Drinking to excess is not cool.
I'm impressed by your mature attitude about this.

Tell her exactly what you told us. The truth is always best.
