Walking on the Road Known as Shame!

How many of you have walked the "walk of shame"? A funny thought, but it seems that when people go down this "road" they feel dirty and shameful. Yet unless your with someone whose company you do not enjoy, I see no reason for the feeling of shame.

Yestersday I was unable to pick up my friend, she gets off work really late, so she spent the night at her boyfriends house. She called me the next day, today, and told me waht happen, she got lucky. But she said with a shameful tone that the next day she walked out of his apartment and felt as though the people around her knew what she had done and where she had been. She said she felt a bit dirty.

Now, if she cares about this guy and has gone so far as to be exclusive with him, and go and do it with him, I see no reason for her path down "shameful valley".

what do you think? Any similar experiences? Don't be ashamed to share your dirty past experiences.

Was your friend raised by evangelicals, by any chance?

Well she's catholic but she does not follow the teachings. Its not a big deal for her just something else to do some sundays ...

ok, does the walk of shame only apply to women? Why?
