Hey, submit a post telling us about something that happened that was awkward.

#1

I'm sure I have more that I just can't remember, but recently I've had to ask the nearest tall person, who happened to be a very attractive man, to reach a box of tampons for me.

In 3rd grade I wore my pants backwards to school. It was noticeable. No one said anything until the teacher asked me about it. Always check your pants before school.

In 5th grade i said the f-slur in front of my whole class because I left my homework at home and I thought it was a funny way to say forgot. Basically the teacher asked for my homework and I said, “Oops I f*****”.

I was telling one of my friends who i liked because she'd been begging to know. Ironically, as I said the name, my crush was standing right behind me. Luckily I was able to pass off with the excuse "It's a different [crush's name] from my church." This was a while ago, and that friend told me later on that she'd never seen anyone's face so red.

I was 15, and working at a face/hand painting station at a fair. Well, I couldn't draw stars back then. These two 19 year olds come in, ask for a hand paint, one comes to my spot, and points at the star. I had to tell him that I couldn't draw stars and he was so kind and said "That's okay, I'll have something else instead" and he pointed at something else, like the cross or it was the ice cream cone maybe. So I did it, but we sat in such an awkward silence until I was done. He said it was very good and left.

I saw the guy I was obsessed with in first grade at school for the first time in 8 years the other day. One of my friends said "Hey, you haven't seen him since elementary school." We kind of just stared awkwardly at each other because we both obviously remembered how embarrassingly weird I was. Then today we made eye contact in the hallway and I booked it out of there.
