I don't understand how you consider yourself a Christian and assert "The guy did nothing wrong. " That statement is false and incompatible with Christianity. Both rape and fornication are mortal sins. While a prosecutor may not bring him up on charges, he is guilty as sin.

Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

Revelation, Catholic chapter twenty two, Protestant verses ten to sixteen,

Ahhh...if it is consensual, which it was according to the witnesses that saw her go willing with him..it is not rape.

The root word of rape in English jurisprudence:

seize prey; abduct, take by force

That is why he was not charged. She had no recollection and her actions at the party indicated she had intent to bed the poor innocent chap, she came on to him. When she realized what she did sober she had second thoughts...and I gave you the realist explanation for how that plays out in the modern day, having spent some time in my greener days in that world.

As for fornication, well it is a sin, so, technically is jerking off, or going to a pro, or having a girl perform a hand job (not sure about he last) and yet...I doubt that many man have not so sinned in youth prior to marriage. I very much doubt any man who has been in service and has had “deadly sperm buildup” (DSB) has not dealt with the issue. Every base has its recognized whore houses outside the gate that specialize in service personnel.

So it is not ideal, but ..well the root of the word “Sin” is an archery term. It means missing the mark. We humans miss the mark a lot.

Further we have set up a system where men need darned near ten years of education and work to be able to afford to marry...exactly at the time they are most in need of female company. What do suppose the young chaps are going to do?

If women want to avoid yielding their chaste treasure to some unsuitable young man’s unmastered importunity, then they should behave accordingly. Else they risk the approbation this young filly is currently feeling.

So my answer is yes, I am a Christian, but I recognize the world we live in is fallen and folks are not perfect. While young men are dogs, young women are by no means pure in thought, deed or actions these days. Far from it and the Christians that still treat/think women are thinking we are told they did 100 years ago is missing reality.

So in conclusion, “opps I did it with a guy I would not in a sober state” regret is not the same thing as rape. He did not commit a crime under the law.
