Making a fool of yourself.

Here's a general question - for anyone, really:

Have you ever embarrassed yourself over someone you fancied? How did you recover from it?

Hold your head high. If you ever get to go out with them, they'll probably see you do a lot worse/embarrassing things so get used to it! :biggrin:

Yeah, it was nothing major, really.

I had to talk to this girl in my course, to ask if she'd participate in my video production. It seemed like everything I said came out wrong - either scrambled words that made no sense and even the odd accidental innuendo. Afterwards, I wasn't able to talk to her at all! Now, I can't even look at her . . .

Aw mate I know that feeling well. Forget about it, pretend it never happened and next time you see her pretend you are old friends and talk to her like you have known her for years. You will get over the nerve thing then and you can be normal

Yep, jeans ripped down the seam of my leg when I bent down to get something out of my bag.

My reaction was something along the lines of "Bugger, gonna have to go and change these. I'll see you later."

If things don't get at you and you can see the funny side there's never really an issue to begin with.

I'm always embarrassing myself :redface:

My first date with my boyfriend (which was 2 years ago tonight :biggrin:

) I spent soo long getting ready, which is really unusual for me. The we got to the cinema and I realised I forgot to take any money. Thank goodness my boyfriend is such a gent and wouldn't have heard of me paying for anything anyway. In fact I only recently 'fessed up to the fact. Could have been embarrassing, but luckily wasn't.

I fancied this guy, who is still a really close friend, and I told him that I fancied him... It turned out that he had a girlfriend and he only wanted to be friends with me...

That was probably one of the worst days of my life, lol... Mainly due to the embarassment...

Last week I got REALLY drunk in front of the guy I like and tried to steal his hat. Not once, but about six times. I also said loads of embarrassing stuff, and looked like an utter fool. He's now reallllly awkward with me lol. But it's still better than it was before.

Hmm yes well my work colleagues and I were stood in the kitchen all discussing how much I fancied my boss, and all the generally embarassing things that go along with that, how I liked his tight trousers and wanted to have his babies etc. Then my supervisor came in and asked what we were talking about, I told her how much I fancied our boss, and she gasped and told us that he actually hadn't gone home yet like we though, but was actually sat in the office (which is in the corner of our kitchen).
And yes the door was open.
Never been so mortified in my entire life!!!!!

I spent a whole week working up the courage to ask a girl out. She destroyed me in 1 second. By saying "**** Off" to me. She thought i was joking. I was so depressed i couldn't even stand up in Drama class and in that class i had to watch a pretty horrible video of my self doing a performance terribly. I made a fool out of my self twice in one day.

There is an another one but I'm till to embarrassed to talk about it.

You have my every sympathy there, mate. Supposedly one day we'll look back on our misfortunes like these and laugh - or so the saying goes . . . :rolleyes:

Just out of interest, mate:

How did you fall on your face? Just trying to picture it . . .
