So I embarrassed the shit out of myself during a date I had just last week with a coworker. I had been eyeing her for months and we finally go out and I royally fuck up. I won't go into detail because the last thing I need is more people laughing at or judging me.
This event has been eating at me for a week. I haven't been to work since because I'm sure she's told everyone else what happened and she has contacted me, so I can only assume the worst. I'm a fucking mess and I need to know how the fuck to get over this. I've never been more embarrassed in my life.
You should read other people's embarrassing stories so you won't feel as bad about it. Sounds like you need to get a new job though, if you've not turned up for a week.
Justin Flores
You mean she "has not" contacted you? Maybe she's embarrassed too. Just fucking go to work and have some self confidence. When you go back make sure to say you were really sick. Ignore her a bit then ask her out again. Confidence, mate. Make something up to explain what it was to her. Lie. Also tell us what happened.
Benjamin Ross
*she hasn't contacted me.
I tried that. It isn't helping. I've been considering moving, changing my name even. What happened was bad. Real bad. If it had been recorded I probably would kill myself.
William Parker
Are you sure that you're not being too hard on yourself about it? It's pretty hard to reassure you or give you proper advice if we don't know what happened.
Isaiah Young
Well you have to give a few details at least. No one can really help you otherwise. "royally fucking up" is all relative, you need to at least give summation of what happened. It can't be that horrendously bad as you may be thinking.
Anthony Thomas
>Are you sure that you're not being too hard on yourself about it? She got so mad she called me a fucking retard. I don't think so.
Christopher Wilson
cut all contact and move on plenty of cunts in the sea
Anthony Sanchez
This isn't about her. I know I messed that up and I never want to see her again, I would drop dead from embarrassment. I'm not going back to work either, she has too many friends there. This is about me. I can honestly say it's the worst experience I've ever had in my life and it's all I think about. I can't shake it. I'm really fucked up over it. I need help moving on.
Joseph Sullivan
find a new job or just confess bitch, what are you here for? How did you "mess up"? You don't have to give every fucking detail but if you're not going to say anything I don't understand how anyone is supposed to give you advice.
Did you shit on her spaghetti at dinner? Did you expose yourself? What the fuck is so horrible you fucking drama queen?
Matthew Harris
>find a new job or just confess bitch, what are you here for? What are you here for? Not to give advice, that's for sure. That's why I posted here. Why do you need exact details? You don't need them to help me.
How do I get over an embarrassing and traumatic experience that's over taken my life? Besides blowing my brains out.
Caleb Gonzalez
Can I ask how the date went outside of / prior to the major fuck up you made? Was it going OK before that or did it start of poorly, or was it going downhill anyway? In some ways, maybe not immediately, getting back in the saddle and having a successful, good date might really give you your confidence back.
Brody Butler
If you tell us what happened, we will then tell you if you should blow your brains out of embarrassment or out of being a fag overreacting
Brayden Roberts
Imagine going to a therapist and saying "I had a traumatic experience I want to get over". Naturally, the therapist is going to ask what, exactly that traumatic experience is and you say "You don't need the details to help me". Would be a bit silly, right? Of course, you most likely won't get the same quality of advice here as you would get from a therapist, but the point is that there is no cookie cutter advice that works in every situation for this kind of issue. If there was you could've just google it instead of making a thread here.
But, honestly, I'm just curious, what the hell did you do that was so bad? Get over yourself and share, you're an user on the internet.
Michael Morgan
I accidentally fucked her dog.
Justin Gray
I'm here to try to help your stupid ass and you don't want to reveal anything anonymously about a traumatic experience? Go to a therapist then faggot, otherwise we are all you've got.
So you had a bad date and you did something stupid...... wow so much that can be done with that kind of Intel... So like I said if you want to continue to be a an evasive turd, quit your job or give ANY KIND OF DETAIL YOU INSOLENT FUCK.
Aiden Lee
“You fucking retard”
Jackson White
>How do I get over an embarrassing and traumatic experience that's over taken my life? Yoooooooooou let it the fuck go dude. If you've already sworn off ever seeing her again, why do you even need to think about it anymore? This is where all the "what did you do and why do you care so much" talk comes in. There could be a legitimate reason why you have so much guilt and anxiety about whatever you did. It could just be a silly mistake that most people wouldn't really fault you for. How bad could it be? She was alive to complain afterward, whatever you did really couldn't have been all that bad.
Jackson Cruz
It's highly unlikely your fuck up is as bad as you're making it out to be. You seem neurotic and the type of person to build minuscule things up internally until they completely overwhelm you. Part of your process of recovery is going to have to include acknowledging your mistake and realising that it doesn't define who you are. Whether or not you do it here on Jow Forums is inconsequential, but you won't get over it by pretending it never happened.
Zachary Allen
What the.... is this OP? How did that happen?
Nathaniel Hughes
No. That isn't me. I'm not going tell anyone what happened. Just let the thread die. I don't wanna remember it. So fucked up I'm getting kicked when I'm down.
Nathaniel Hughes
IT CAN'T BE THAT BAD, WHAT HAPPENED.? Like what others have said, a therapist would ask what happened. I think this is all in your head (as is usual). Unless you assaulted this girl, it was just a small mistake. Your multiplying any perceived "mistake" in your head. I'm trying to help you, no one is kicking you, we don't even know what happened and we want to help you (obviously).
Ethan Wood
You can't just forget about it, user, the more you try to ignore it then more it's gonna eat at you. The only thing you can do is try to accept it and get over it. And you're not doing yourself any favors by acting like it's the worst thing that ever happened and being too ashamed and scared of it to even talk about it to a bunch of strangers who don't know who you are. You're still alive, the earth still revolves around the sun and the laws of physics are still working. Whatever it is, it's not nearly as bad as you're making it out to be. That's all I can say without knowing any specifics.
Owen Campbell
user please greentext it. Whatever it is, you're not gonna get over it if you can't even talk about it
Eli Parker
So let me guess... you OP, went all out being the chivalrous love struck fool, romancing her with flowers and the whole works.
And she laughed at you... didn't she?
She went on the date for fun, for something to do and without any romantic intent... didn't she?
Yeah she's told everyone but it's not the end of the world. You'll be embarrassed and the butt of a few jokes but also, there will a girl some where, who hears this and wishes it was her being worshipped that way.
But you'll probably reject her, being the thin skinned faggot you are.
Cooper Hernandez
We're going to need some details. And yes, we'll laugh.
Carter Ward
But we're laughing WITH you. Just greentext pls.
Brody Long
Sounds like you really pooped the bed on this one op
Gavin Howard
so just provide details at this point or feel free to fuck off.
Grayson Myers
This thread is an example of excellent b8
Henry Reed
The thread was already sinking to the fourth page why bump it? There's no bait. I came looking for help and I didn't get any.
Christian Nelson
Bump
Isaiah Turner
If it helps, if some woman at work told me another coworker spilled the spagehti on a date I'd judge her than you for gossiping about whatever autistic antics you did.
Charles Perry
fuck! lol
Jace Lewis
did you put it in her pooper OP?
Carter Ortiz
ITT OP plants masterful bait and we all fall for it.
Joseph Bailey
Did you shit or piss yourself? No? Then the embarrassing moment isn't that embarrassing. Go to work and be your usual self.
Cameron Gonzalez
I'm not going to let this thread die
Jackson Baker
Ok fine!
I asked her ti marry me when we were having dessert. She almost apit up her creme brûlée and i could hear the table next to me laughing. I just started crying and left.
Hudson Bailey
Is this you OP?
Because you're a retard, but she'd be a huge bitch for calling you a fucking retard.
Ryan Gutierrez
Not me.
This was me:
Aaron Nelson
Try harder. This doesn't match at all with .
Thomas Ortiz
OP here, I'm sharing the story, for real this time. We were having a nice date and went back to her apartment. She went to get changed and found me blowing her dog. I don't see what the big deal is, I blow my dogs all the time to relieve their stress and it beats neutering them. Besides, seamen has protein.
Samuel Peterson
What a bunch of assholes. And what's with you and the dog fucking? Seems like it's something you like fantizing about.
I elbowed her on the nose by accident. She started bleeding so I asked if she was alright, she said no you fucking retard. I called an ambulance but I bailed before they got there.
Josiah Hall
Yeah obviously there's not really much of a chance to salvage this, but you can take comfort in the fact that you didn't propose or fuck her dog. It could been worse.
Mason Torres
I haven't the foggiest which story(ies) is(are) real, but my money's on the fact that OP is long gone
Henry Jones
Oh please you going to have do better then that this is 9GAG I bet like 90% of these fucks blow their dogs
Carson Cooper
Yeah I just went with the least ridiculous one.
Ryder Hughes
sigh can we have the real story please
Hudson Foster
OP is gone dude
Jacob Evans
Op if anybody laughs then they're immature. It's irrational to think ppl giving advice here would want to laugh at you. These are ppl who are trying to help you. Getting stuff off your chest is incredibly healthy and what many therapists recommend. If I know what happened then maybe I can give you my perspective on it to make it seem like way less of a deal than you think it is. Holding this in to yourself is really unhealthy and could make you feel horrible for weeks if you don't talk to us now.
Op I can relate to this. I'm in my thirties. I won't judge. Just tell us.
Tyler Sanders
OP is gone dude
Evan Carter
OP went to go fuck more dogs
Easton Gomez
Yeah, you're mom. The shit is, I was gonna say what happened, I actually typed it all up. but then I saw your shit posts and decided, naw.
I bet he did shit his pants or got way too drunk and cried in her lap. None of those would be fun but it's not the end of the world.
William Murphy
Tell the story so we can actually help you ya dingus
Jacob Diaz
This is so not a big deal.
Proof: My wife both scalded my crotch with coffee and cleaned my clock with an accidental right hook to the jaw. The difference here is that I laughed it off and we went on with our lives.
Your coworker may be a complete ass, just like you imagine... But she might also NOT be that person.
If she is, meh. It was an accident. But if she's actually a decent person who understands shit happens, this is nbd. Her response may have been stronger because of the situation - maybe you'll get a chance to drop "You like that, you fucking retard?" if you walk back in there with confidence.
Shit happens. You gotta forgive and laugh at yourself or your head's gonna explode.
Colton Garcia
No. It was a very specific instance of stupidity. Let's say I told you what really happened and someone were to screencap it and my story circulates online. Without a doubt my coworker would know it was me and reveal who I am. I'd be a laughing stock forever.
Leo Mitchell
Just change up some of the details. Say you’re from Idaho etc, but still tell the actual story
Tyler Long
>Why do you need exact details? You don't need them to help me. FIFTY FUCKING TIMES A DAY
Ethan Fisher
How many FUCKING times do we have to tell you people to not shit where you eat? NEVER EVER EVER EVER DATE A FUCKING COWORKER NO NOT EVEN IF SHE'S "THAT GREAT" OR "IN A DIFFERENT DEPARTMENT BRO IT'S COOL" NEVER DATE COWORKERS
Jason Jenkins
She asked me a question, it was pertaining to the state we live in specifically. I gave a stupid answer. That's it, that's all I'm saying. It gives you some idea of what happened. What I said was so fucking stupid she gave me a look that could melt your face and called me a fucking retard. I mean, we still had dinner, joked around and everything afterward but I was deep in my own mind after that comment. She's such a cool person and I never heard her speak to anyone like that before.
I'm a pretty sensitive person and I have a real frail ego. She's probably told everyone how fucking moronic I am. i can't fucking get over it.
Asher Campbell
>No. It was a very specific instance of stupidity. Let's say I told you what really happened and someone were to screencap it and my story circulates online. Without a doubt my coworker would know it was me and reveal who I am. I'd be a laughing stock forever.
Ok, just answer this. Was it an accident? Did you make a too bold move? Was everything your fault? Did she run away from you after the incident?
William Butler
Not it wasn't an accident, I answered with confidence so she knew it wasn't a joke.
Angel Ramirez
you managed to continue though. maybe she thinks you're a little stupid. so what
Daniel Edwards
>Not it wasn't an accident, I answered with confidence so she knew it wasn't a joke.
So a racist thing? If it's just that you're overreacting. Way way way too much. Text her and tell her you're sorry for saying something like that, say it was meant as a joke but it turned weird, or something along those lines. It couldn't be that bad if she stayed. The reason it felt weird was because you were thinking of it all the time. Admit your mistakes and get your ass back to work.
Kayden Russell
Dude, just tell us what you said to her. You're anonymous here. If you tell us, then it's possible that she's being a douche.
Logan Sanders
It all spiraled from a discussion about intelligence. I told her I wasn't all that book smart so she started throwing questions at me to see how stupid I really was., I guess. I don't know if she was being playful or what.
Nicholas Evans
She hasn't gone out of her way to try to contact me since. I think it's safe to say she doesn't think very highly of me.
