10 of the most awkward situations we find ourselves in
Life can be hard for those of us who can be somewhat awkward in certain social situations – especially the following ones!
1. Mistaking Somebody for Someone Else
You think you're talking to your friend beside you in the veg aisle about not being able to find a decent avocado in October, until you realise it's actually an old man standing beside you and he asks you what an avocado is. FML.
2. Small Talk
Your friend promises you'll know LOADS of people at the dinner party – until you arrive, realise this was a lie and spend the whole night talking to Mrs. Perky Pants.
3. Trying to Be Courteous
It's not that you're rude – quite the opposite in fact. You see a person coming down the hall and you want to keep the door open for them – but how far away is too far?
5. Trying to Be Witty
A lead balloon never looked so sad…
7. Comforting People
You see a girl crying and you know it would be nice to go and ask her if she is okay…but what if it's all a ploy to grab your bag and run away? Oh God, what to do…
8. Complaining
The. Actual. Worst. You contemplate just eating the hair in your salad.
9. Third-Wheeling
Seriously, you guys?
10. Untimely Laughter
At your great-grandaunt's funeral…while doing your prayer of the faithful. Noooo!
