I want to point out two things
1: She threw up, assuming she doesn't have a pocket dimension in her throat she likely threw up most of the alcohol.
2: OP was almost certainly drinking. OP makes no mention of throwing up. We can pretty safely assume OP is also drunk, and likely has more alcohol still in his system than her.
Seems like a lot of people ITT think that consent is a one way street. He said no and was drunk, she pushed. We can at the very least admit that she sexually assaulted him, and if you think otherwise you need to rethink some things.
I already replied to your similar comment on my thread, but I'm going to repeat myself here to give this maximum visibility; vomiting does not remove alcohol from your system. You become intoxicated not when you swallow alcohol, but when the alcohol in your stomach is metabolized and enters your blood stream. If you are vomiting from alcohol, it means your body has metabolized so much alcohol that it has recognized that it is being poisoned. It is purging your stomach to prevent you from metabolizing any more poison, but it is not removing any alcohol from your system (AKA your bloodstream). Someone is just as drunk just before they threw as they were after they threw up. That person will only become sober once their liver has had time to filter the alcohol out of their system.
Since OP is not throwing up, but the girl in his story is, it is far, far more likely that she is much drunker than him. Unless he had other symptoms of alcohol poisoning (and it seems like he would have mentioned that), it is safe to assume that her BAC is much higher than his. More broadly, you should never think that someone vomiting up alcohol is a sign that they are sobering up.

Yes, and to be clear, a number of factors will affect how quickly alcohol enters your system: stomach contents, body weight (not including body fat), rate of consumption. But once alcohol is in your system, you can't just purge it by vomiting. Time is the only thing that will remove it.
On the contrary (same source):
This actually proves my point. "Very little alcohol enters fat because of fat's poor solubility." Meaning alcohol doesn't enter fat, so body fat doesn't lower the concentration of alcohol in the bloodstream. It's part of TIPS certification; a lot of bartenders are taught that body weight increases your ability to consume alcohol, so they see a heavy set guy and assume he can handle more alcohol, but fat doesn’t actually affect their tolerance. A 5'8" fat guy that weighs 250 is going to have a lower tolerance than a 6'2" lean guy that weighs 250.
How? Pre-gaming doesn't typically result in being drunk, it's something you do to cut the costs of getting drunk at a bar. It's usually something like 1-2 drinks, so you'd be a little buzzed, but not drunk. If he was drunk, I highly doubt he'd have the fortitude to refuse, because alcohol dramatically lowers your inhibitions. It could also be that OP doesn't drink, he just went because he likes the girl.
So no, I don't think we can safely assume OP is drunk. Also, you don't throw up alcohol until after you're already drunk, so throwing up most of the alcohol isn't going to sober her up.
Pre gaming at 22 definitely involves heavy drinking.
It can, but I've "pre-gamed" with people who are drinking without drinking myself. Designated drivers are certainly present if the bars aren't within walking distance. Generally speaking, people don't get drunk before going to the bar, because the bar won't let you order if you're visibly drunk, and why would they allow you to stay if you're not a paying customer?
