I feel disgusted with myself for getting high and having sex with my neighbour

DEAR DEIDRE: I FEEL so disgusted with myself for having sex with my neighbour and being out of control.

I’m a 29 year-old single mum to a five-year-old boy and have just got out of an abusive relationship.

My son’s dad was violent if he’d had a drink. I finally got away and moved somewhere new.

My mum often has my little boy and on one of these days, I was cleaning my car when my neighbour wandered over and introduced himself.

He is 31 and offered me a coffee.

When I went to his house, he offered me some weed. I had never had anything like that before and it made me feel really heavy and then sick.

He kissed me and we ended up having sex. I was pretty spaced out but I didn’t say “No”.

I’ve let myself down.

DEIDRE SAYS: You were under the influence of cannabis, which made you relax. It was a mistake. Don’t beat yourself up about it.

If you see your neighbour again, keep it friendly but if you don’t want to take this relationship further, tell him it was a one-off.
