That awkward moment when..

[TenderKnight]

.. you are viewing "who's online" and see that someone can see you viewing "who's online"..

That awkward moment when you think someone is waving at you and you wave back.. and they were waving at someone behind you..

I think you get the drift.. We all have our awkward moments.. why not share them and laugh at ourselves for being human?

[deedarino]

That awkward moment when...

You are out for a wonderful evening, dancing the night away...looking damn good I must say. On the way back from a little break, you walk across the dance floor toward your destination, noticing all eyes upon you and you think, damn...I look better than I thought :-)

Of course when you get to your table you notice the real reason for the looks; a 3 ft piece of toiley paper stuck to your shoe.

That awkward moment when you realize someone has already started this same thread a while back and you just never bothered to check and see if there was already an awkward moment thread made.. ummmm

Yes, I would be THAT girl in the horror movie.

When you have groceries in a cart and your loading them in your truck, you put your coffee cup on top of your roof, you keep loading your truck, you start up, start driving through the parking lot and everyone is pointing at (you think you) and some are waving their hand so you start waving back, they give you a funny look so you give them a funny look back... (thinking, what? I don't know you do I?) Gesshh....
You get to the stop sign, take that sharp turn and see in your rear view mirror a coffee cup falling into your bed and coffee running down your rear window.

Awkward moment... Yeah.

[Gaige]

you start a thread and then realize that a thread with the exact title and subject matter already exists.

That awkward moment when you come out of your room at 4 in the afternoon and your roommate said they didn't want to check on you because they were afraid you were dead. Especially awkward when she is the one who found your partner dead.

that awkward moment when you meet a friend for Wings Wednesday at Pizza Hut and you're waited on by a cute, young person that's waited on you before, who makes you wonder (because of how she carries herself and presents) if we have had a "baby butch sighting"?"...which makes us smile...and then the awkward moment after she leaves our table and we fuss back-n-forth about which one of us she's hitting on? She sure does love to give my companion some special attention and always brings them a plate of fresh specialty pizza from the buffet. I've never had anyone serve me when I order the buffet... :blink:

but it's cute to watch her interactions with us...and her young swagger and confidence.

This happened when I was 19...so it's funny NOW.....

I went to a clinic to get a physical so I could take my CNA class. The Dr who gave me the physical also gave me my TB test. She told me to watch the area of the injection for signs of raising, rash etc. Then said, well you may not be able to find it again...and circled it with her pen. I think my jaw dropped to the floor! I told her.. I cant BELIEVE you just did that! I could get blood poisoning!!!! She laughed and said... I think that's just something your mother told you so you wouldn't draw on yourself.... :|

It got me wondering what OTHER nuggets of false wisdom she imparted..... :blink:

[Bèsame*]

Can you say awkward ....

Went to dinner with some new friends and was on my best behavior. I noticed the special board as I was seated and decided to order linguine and calamari. I had just started to acquire a taste for calamari. So when it came to the table, it was served with a clear broth. So after a few min., some one asked me how was my dinner. I said, well, it's good, but I've never had calamari served like this, where I could see the testicles and all.

As soon as that left my mouth, I wanted to climb under the table. Tentacles!Tentacles!

Didn't finish it, boxed it up and tossed it before I got home...lol

When...

A staff from another extension in the building is goofing off over the phone and I tell her I can't talk anymore cause I'm kinda busy...

Oh cause you're scraping off old tape from the desk?" :blush: :superfunny:

A little more awkward and icky to boot, is when you realize that you sent a verging on porno one to your oldest daughter by accident.

Not the younger one, the much more liberal and open one, but to the older, religious, more prudish one.

This was a couple of years ago and I still am mortified to think of it.

Two months ago when the kid and I decided to downsize we went looking at apartments. We found a lovely apartment community that were at the foothills of the desert. Top of our city where you could see the lights. We LOVED it here before we even came to look at the apartments themselves. So the woman from the leasing office is showing us the apartment when I noticed she was pregnant. Gawd knows I love babies and everything to do with them, so I had to comment on how beautiful she looked being pregnant. Her response..." Ya know I told my husband I shouldn't wear this shirt because it makes me look nine months pregnant when I am NOT pregnant"!! The look on her face said it all. She was mad LMAO. It was an honest mistake and I apologized profusely like 10 times. Oh well. And by the way, we are living in the exact apartment she showed us two months ago:)

[*Anya*]

I have done this before and it is so embarrassing! Now, if I am unsure, I just say nothing until and if they say something about being pregnant.

[easygoingfemme]

When you go to a family wedding with your boyfriend and your parents. And your parents don't know that your boyfriend is FtM. And they've known him for a while and they love him to pieces but you're not really sure how they'll do with the full story. And you get to the wedding and you've been in the car for three hours and your boyfriend excuses himself to the men's room. And your Father (who a moment ago was fixing the back of your boyfriend's shirt collar and tie for him) follows him to the bathroom. So you go to the women's room in a little bit of a panic about it and your mom follows you and from the stall next to you starts going on and on about how much she loves your boyfriend and everything little thing that she loves about him. And you're dying a little because you have no idea what's going on next door and you don't know if your father just figured out that your boyfriend isn't exactly set up to pee at the urinal next to him.
(It all turned out fine, by the way, but woohoo was that a lot to have go down at once)! And this story was even better when told from my guy's perspective, who thankfully has a great sense of humor.

When you text your friend thanking them for being there for you and how much you appreciate them and your auto correct takes over and you just push send and the next thing you know you just text-ed them "hey douche ...." (true story ....) Thanks sweets for laughing about it :)

That awkward moment where you have been studying Egyptian mythology enough to pick out an entire sentence and are sleep deprived enough to freak out that you are suddenly able to read hieroglyphs.

[ruffryder]

saw this on FB today and thought it was funny!!

That awkward moment when you go to a garage sale and the person who owns the home/garage says, "we aren't having a garage sale, we are cleaning out our garage."

[cinnamongrrl]

I went to the store to pick up a few things...I was wearing a jean skirt...and as I was walking through the deli...I felt my panties starting to slip DOWN....there was no good place to duck in and hike em up....so I had finish up and GO.... :|

Note to self.... don't wear your really old panties...ever

[Bad_boi]

If you are like me you aren't used to women in your personal space unless they plan to kiss you or are family. So I got startled because I assumed that I was about to be kissed by someone I have a professional relationship with and back away slowly before I realize shes just trying to give me a business card. :canadian:

[Siren's Song]

The awkward moment when I realized I was not who I thought I should be, maybe not even who I dreamed I should be. Now what? Now the real journey of discovery begins without preconception. But the moment when I realized it? Incredibly awkward..

When you have to knock on the concierge hut in your robe to call security (as he is speaking with a couple) b/c you locked yourself out of your hotel room.

When you clean your dick and leave it on the bookshelf and forget to close the blinds. I think my neighbors might have seen mah peenis.

[PoeticSilence]

That Friday food day at work where everyone signs up to bring something and you think you'll surprise everyone with something besides chips or paper plates and you put down something like enchiladas and you think about it all morning while you work. You have in your mind which dish you'll be bringing to work and who you can ask to help you carry it all up to your break room, and how to mark your utensils etc. And you never give it another thought until that Friday when you are walking across the parking lot and everyone else is lugging in food....

So....

I'm walking around downtown and I see a pigeon on the sidewalk...

There weren't many pigeons where I grew up...OK none at all....so I find them fascinating in appearance and approachability.

So...I'm talking to the pigeon and its all cool and looking up at me and I try to pet it. It kind of skitters away and walks into the road and I'm scared now it'll be hit so I ask it to come back to the sidewalk...I walked around it to shoo it back to safety and low and behold there are people on the other side of the parked van that is right there...listening toe chide the pigeon about street safety...

Sigh...I really need to look around before I do stupid shit

[Poss]

Can you say awkward ....

Went to dinner with some new friends and was on my best behavior. I noticed the special board as I was seated and decided to order linguine and calamari. I had just started to acquire a taste for calamari. So when it came to the table, it was served with a clear broth. So after a few min., some one asked me how was my dinner. I said, well, it's good, but I've never had calamari served like this, where I could see the testicles and all.

As soon as that left my mouth, I wanted to climb under the table. Tentacles!Tentacles!

Didn't finish it, boxed it up and tossed it before I got home...lol

...too funny!

[cinnamongrrl]

That awkward moment when you get allllll excited to see a new post in one of your favorite (subscribed) threads....only to realize...it was you who posted there....:blink:

That awkward moment when you have a friend, a good buddy, that you like hanging out with and they tell you that they like you as more than a friend. :blush::blush: But you don't feel that way about them.

That awkward moment when you run into a former coworker that was fired in the grocery store or wherever, and they want to talk to you like you are their best buddy, but you never really talked to them at work before they were fired......:blink::blink::blink:

[Chad]

My newish coworker seems to not understand professional behavior or boundaries.

She comes into my office a lot to get my advice on projects and procedures. I am usually happy to help but her brassy behavior throws me for a loop.

So today she walked into my office and hiked up her skirt to her panties to show me bug bites on her leg. :seeingstars:

Being the cool headed old guy I said you may want to put some medicine on those bites. In my head I was thinking WTF is wrong with this girl!!!!

Any possibility she likes you? I don't know the background, but from where I am standing it certainly looks that way! Maybe she has decided you need a 2x4?

Whether or not she "likes" Chad, don't you think this behavior is unprofessional and the skirt hiking bordering on harassment? If a man did that (not sure how with pants...pushing them down to show something to where their briefs were exposed?), I'd be furious. It's not appropriate and clearly crossing professional boundaries, especially because it sounds like Chad and this person clearly do not have an easy and open friendship where such actions would be a-ok.

I've had men interrupt my work/space time for bogus reasons, and, yes, it's possible there was a 'crush' happening on their end, but it didn't make it feel any less intrusive or inappropriate. Despite their 'liking' of me, it did make me feel my boundaries were being crossed and their behaviour was, at the least, irritating, and at the worst, verging on harassment.

Haha! Dapper buddy that would be a fun world to live in if a lady felt the need to hike up her skirt to get my attention.

I think this girl is just brazen with no boundaries. I am sure that there will be many more awkward moments to come.

Soon,

I have wondered about her bazaar behavior since she started working in our group. She says things that would make anyone uncomfortable.

I feel like it is not my job to teach her "professional behavior".

Ha! I've been having issues with one woman for a long time now acting crazy. Another started not too long ago. She also has felt the need to show her bug bites way up there. As well as tell people we are together and sticking her tits in my face. Also constantly wanting me to watch her dance and shake her ass at me. This led to the girl that sits by me making comments of the same variety and she too likes to tell me to look while she dances around shaking her ass. I've made it clear I'm not interested but it doesn't seem to help much. I dunno wtf is wrong with women like them but damn something sure is!

So I feel ya man

[grenade]

Brazen would describe at least half of my office mates, myself included. We're professional when need be but super casual within our little group. I would think nothing of one of my co-workers raising her skirt to show me bug bites. Nothing is off limits for conversation. Our jokes and pranks are outrageous. That's just our dynamics.

Well, yes, absolutely! But, that is a different subject.

I was answering Chad's question. He asked what was wrong with her. I assumed he was asking our opinion on why she might be doing this. I didn't think he wanted us to actually makes suggestions as to what was "wrong" with her (Histrionic Personalty Disorder, anyone?).

Since she is coming around him a lot to chat and now she is being sexually suggestive, my guess is that she is sexually attracted to him.

Did you think that I would thought this was acceptable behavior? If so, why?

This would make me extremely uncomfortable. How are you dealing with the woman who is telling people that you are together? That makes me think she really is pretty kooky. Have you considered going to HR? Is the whole office very loose with their boundaries? I really couldn't deal with this everyday.

What she does is goes to people and says it so I can hear and I will say something like.... "I don't think so" or I throw in choice words also. Then she laughs. So she makes it look like playing but she does it alllllllll the time. You would think she wouldn't find it amusing anymore but I guess she does. There has been talks and they helped some. She is also a sort of supervisor. But she is always acting out like she craves attention from everyone. She picks with a bunch of people but i don't get why I am the only one that she acts like that with.

I'd say it's a mix of professional and "loose". HR recently fired a man for sexual harassment.

Your comment indicated nothing EXPLICIT about whether or not you found it acceptable but, no, I don't think you would find such unprofessional behaviour appropriate.

However, I *did* find your response somewhat surprising and a bit troubling in its implicit connotations, as it focused on proposing a harmless, playful, and even perhaps justified, reason for her intrusive behaviour toward Chad. The "two by four" is a common humorous turn of phrase thrown about due to this perception that butches are clueless when it comes to a woman's attraction toward them. It struck me as minimizing what Chad was feeling and experiencing. I put myself in the same situation (which I have been) and how I'd be frustrated if someone said the same thing to me after me opening up that a guy was bothering me in such a manner at work. It would be somewhat invalidating, as it does take the angle of...well, maybeeeee he just likes you and you're too clueless to realize it!

It's like if someone was bothering a student, and I said, "Well, maybe he LIKES you!" which indicates more of an absolution or justification for such unwanted behaviour. It adds a bit of a rationale to their behaviour on the person who is acting inappropriately and suggests that maybe, if you just realized they liked you, you would feel differently and not be quite as irritated by them.

I hope this explains more of my response. No, I do not think you would find it acceptable behaviour but, yes, I did find your response carried an odd angle which prompted me to respond in turn.

I've been waiting for your response to my post, so I'm glad I was able to elaborate a bit more for you and hope you understand a bit more where I'm coming from.

Ok, I get it. Completely.

What was actually going on in my head was the memory of me teasing Chad in the "crush" thread a couple of months ago. He came in at two different points saying, "nope, I don't see my name here" (something along those lines). I teased him about it at the time saying that I had seen my name in there thousands of times, and I believe there was also that "butch 2x4" talk (which I have always found annoying), in the thread close to our posts (so the 2x4 comment was a flashback to that moment, too). So, that is probably why I had tunnel vision on that post. Plus, I really thought that his question was the point of the post.

I don't think that I have ever seen my name in so many posts. Dapper buddy I loved your post to me.

The posts from Soon and Gemme have given me food for thought. I usually just ignore bad behavior but this young lady at work does behave unprofessional and something should be done about it.

I appreciate everyone's feed back and will ponder my next steps. I think for me the first step is to tell my coworker that her behavior offends me. If she continues then I will elevate the conversation.

Thank you to everyone that offered advice.

Icky to the absolute max.

It doesn't matter if it is a female, a male or a trans person either on the giving or receiving end; it feels sexually and behaviorally inappropriate and I would also feel very uncomfortable.

It is not workplace behavior!

Good grief!
