No wonder threads like this are trending on various social media platforms. Both Reddit and Twitter users have been sharing what makes them feel like criminals even though they're not doing anything illegal.

Well, let's leave that question for psychologists to answer because our task is to deliver the most relatable answers to the question what feels illegal but isn't? Scroll down below to read 45 answers that people have shared and don't forget to leave votes for the ones that you find the most relatable!

I wish BP wasn't so political. All politics do is make everyone angry and spark heated argument and it's all so dumb... can't we just agree to disagree and get along?

Ignore the liberal mainstream media and just look at how great everything is in our country right now. I didn't like him either but he's doing a great job! We'll have him for the next 5 years so just put aside your hate and try to be happy the country is doing so well!

it only feels so - he is way better than most of his opponents - he is more crazy but also more honest and much less criminal - do not forget that - superficial viewing does not help us

What cliff? The economy recovered under Obama, faster and healthier than any Western nation. The world views Trump the biggest world threat to peace than the leaders of China, NK and Iran. He is also a danger to our democracy.

It *is* illegal, just nobody's willing to enforce the law. :(

My sister-in-law caught our cousin cheating this way... large family gathering with his wife in the room and a sexy message pops up on his phone.

Yeah that one is a real pain, especially when I have a longer beard and get "randomly selected" for a search.

This feeling does take a long time to go away, like I was in my 30’s and still thinking “Am I really over 18? I guess I am” every time I clicked it. At this point I’m in my 40’s and don’t have a moment’s hesitation. “Over 18? Yep, and wish I could shave off a few years.”

Awww, c'mon. I'm still struggling to accept grammar like "That bell ain't gone ring..." via text. I'm trying, Ringo. I'm trying really hard. Don't throw that at me when the user has a keyboard. I know, I'm coming off as some antiquated grammar nazi. FWIW I'm sorry, but at least meet me halfway!

It's so scary that people feel it's wrong to buy condoms. It's about public health, really.

Well, I don't know about other countries but in the UK, while there's no law against driving with interior lights on, if a police officer pulls you over and deems that your interior light to be a driving distraction they can ask you to turn it off or charge you with careless driving. ☹

Now this is funny and relatable, and while it might not be illegal... “I DISMISS YOU NOT THE BELL!”
