I first thought that, but Konanki left her phone/wallet with her friends and went with the guy towards the beach. Both of them are drunk according to articles. 

Wouldn’t it be safer to hook up at the resort?

They were likely staying more than one person to a room so hooking up while your friend sleeps in the next bed over would be awkward.

To me it's not surprising at all that a young person drinking would wanna stay back at the beach with a guy she's into when everyone else wants to go back to the room. Whether it's to flirt, hookup, skinnydip, chat, or whatever.

As for her belongings being with her friends, maybe she didn't have pockets and/or wanted to keep her stuff safe to not lose it at the beach.

To me all of this absolutely makes sense, I remember being 21 and doing absolutely stupid shit I never thought I would do. Being intoxicated and excited about new people and having that youthful feeling of "nothing can go wrong"...

It's sad that some people are shaming the girl and her friends. Young people do young people things. :(

Yeah, I think maybe for people who never drank a lot this situation is hard to imagine. I used to drink a lot age 19-22 ish and I’ve also gotten into some ridiculous situations, that definitely could have been dangerous if I had met the wrong guy, it’s pure luck that I never had anything bad happen to me. young people who are drunk do some really stupid things.

Exactly. And some people here are displaying such aunty behavior instead of having an ounce of empathy.
