You were all drinking and sleeping together. Yes, he took advantage of you without your consent. But it was ambiguous, and you didn't really protest either.
You just put yourself in a vulnerable situation and got taken advantage of. But I would not convict this 'friend' of rape.

How the hell can you say this was not rape.
They were not sleeping together.
She did NOT ask for this to happen.
She did NOT say yes to having sex with him.
She was asleep.
Yes she had been drinking.
Yes he had been drinking this DOES NOT give him the right to do what he did.
Rape is Rape.
Not giving consent in any way makes it rape, she was asleep ffs.
Just because she didn't fight doesn't mean it was not rape because it WAS rape.
We all react differently when in this situation.
I was raped for over 13 years by my ex husband but because I didn't fight him like if you're grabbed by a stranger in the stree I'm sure you will say I wasn't raped by him, maybe I asked for it because we were married and slept in the same bed at night or because we would have nights out and get drunk and he would come home and rape me after, of course this didn't happen because every time it happened I didn't scream, fight, scratch, hit ect due to the children being in the same room or in the room next door, I must have asked for it because I had put a bit of makeup on that night or I had a skirt on.
IF YOU DO NOT GIVE CONSENT IN ANYWAY, IF YOU ARE ASLEEP OR DRUNK, DRUGGED OR PASSED OUT IT IS ****ING RAPE.
NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO DO ANYTHING TO YOU IF YOU DONT WANT THEM TO, PUTTING YOURSELF IN YOUR OWN BED IN YOUR ROOM AND GOING TO SLEEP IS NOT PUTTING YOURSELF IN A VULNERABLE SITUATION.
