Let's talk about embarrassing moments!

My last pelvic exam. You know where the doc presses on your tummy and places a finger where no finger is supposed to be and your just praying you don't fart??

I think I would have had to take that one to the grave.......

These are all great stories but so far Shugardrawers wins first prize!

I agree!

In college, I went to class once with two different shoes on.

I made a sales call last year. Went well. Got the contract after an extended meeting. On my way out I realized my my fly was wide open. At least I had my pretty panties on that day! I recall they were red and silky. Maybe that's why i got the contract.

I was only a couple months pregnant, so it wasn't obvious yet. It was a very warm May day. We were only married 7 months and didn't yet have a car. We were going to a friend's wedding, but didn't have gas money either. So, we decided to take the city transit. Before we went, I had some KFC. The warm day, the greasy food, the pregnancy and the horrible floating motion of the transit was too much for me. Keep in mind, we lived in London, Ontario, which is a big city, and it was Saturday afternoon, so the bus was packed to capacity. About 100 feet from our stop (of course!!), I threw up about three times, all over the floor. The best part was going up a slight incline and watching the vomit slide towards the back of the bus. DH was looking out the window the whole time and didn't even know what was going on till he went to get off the bus and seen the mess. Good times.

Just call me "The Vomitater." I apparently have what they call a vasal vagal response. The first time was right after I had a widsom tooth pulled. DH and I were in Walgreen's waiting for my perscription to be filled. I started to feel faint, so I sat down. I wake up to see that I have passed out and vomited all over myself. It was pretty exciting.

The most recent occured after I had Lasik. I was sitting in the recovery room and felt the faint coming on. I wake up to projectile vomiting of about 5 feet aimed towards the assistant, who is doing some pretty fast moves to save herself from being covered in the stuff.

Now I dread any sort of medical procedure. I'm pretty sure my DH dreads it more than I do. He's always there with me. Just one more reason that I love him--but that's a different topic.

We just came home from eating out at a very busy restaurant in downtown Chicago and my 7yr old DD was leaning back in her chair and the whole chair fell backwards with her in it.

I wasn't embarrassed, but she really was - poor thing!!!

I was 15 and it was the first day of a mission trip that I was on. We were at dinner and I had drank too much water and had to go to the potty soooooooooo bad. When I got over there the line for the ladies room(one single bathroom) was so horribly long that I knew I had to use the mens room. So I checked and there was no one there, I left for a sec. to get a friend to watch the door because it didn't lock. When I came back I stupidly opened the door and it wasn't unoccupied anymore. There was a older guy in there. Thankfully his back was kinda too much and all I could see was his stream of pee. I ran out of there and hid behind some woman, she seemed motherly, well guess who's mother it was. Yup, it was his mom. We became friends after that, but gosh, it was the most embarrassing thing ever for a young and very innocent girl on a mission trip of all things.

I actually thought of another one while reading the rest of this thread.

DH and I had been dating for about 4-5 mos and we were both became horribly ill with the flu. He was hesitant to cancel a date with me, because it was Christmas season and we weren't seeing a lot of each other, due to his being in retail and me still being in school.

So, even though we both were sick to our stomachs and felt horrible, we went out anyway. We ended up eating at an Olive Garden and not 5 minutes after he took his first few bites of his pasta, he ran to the bathroom to throw up. Shortly after he came back, I did the same, only I didn't make it to the bathroom. The entry was tiled and the dining area was carpeted. When I walked past the hostess stand, I tripped on the edge of the carpet and ended up throwing up all over some waitress's feet.

Back in college, when dh and I had just begun dating, we were in the computer lab one night around 2am during final time. They had just remodeled and had moved around something I needed. Dh and I walk up to the help desk where I mean to say I'm so turned around can you please point me too..., instead in my tiredness I say "I'm so turned ON" and then realize what I said and couldn't stop laughing to explain what I meant to say. This guy and dh just stare at me.

We belong to a relatively small church which we take DS 8 months to every week as well as my other 2 boys. This church is small, but also echoes alot. We sit in the balcony area and everyone hears everything. On more than one occasion the Pastor has commented during her sermon that she can hear a little baby cooing (my ds 8 months) and what a blessing baby's are ect. Well, during the last service we attended we had our usual moments of prayer in silence, right after the Pastor states "lets pray for those in need and are suffering" and DS proceeds with this extremely loud, long fart. People around me just giggled, and I know that everyone had to hear it. I was mortified!!

It was in 5th grade and after lunch we were required to line up by the door and wait until the the class had finished eating, then as a group we would walk back to our classroom. Well I was minding my own business standing behind the boy I had a crush on and my best friend comes up from behind and pushes me. I fall forward onto the boy. I try to stop myself from falling by grabbing him. As I grab him I have a hard time getting a grip and my hands slide down his body and I finally grip his pants at the waist and I pull them down to his ankles. Now I want you to picture this....I am face down in a plank position with my arms stretched out and my hands gripping his pants.

I've done something like that before! except he was wearing a belt and I didn't pull his pants down. But I caught myself! He thought it was funny.

A couple years ago I had a horrible flu bug. The first day I tried to go back to work I had to pull over on the freeway because I was so nauseous. I had my head buried in the steering wheel with my arms folded over the top of the wheel for several minutes before it got so bad I knew I was going to toss my cookies. I hit the button to roll down the window and unbeknownst to me a CHP officer had pulled over to check on me and was walking up to my car. Yep, I did it. All over him.

 

[barkley]

not to me, to dh.

around the time we were potty training ds (and being encouraging when he went on his own, monitoring his output....) we go out to a restaurant to eat. dh leaves the table and ds asks me wheres he's going to- i respond "daddy went to the potty". as dh exits the bathroom into the full restaurant ds shouts out "daddy you went to the potty all by yourself-what a good boy! did you go poo-poo or pee-pee? does mommy need to check and see if you wiped o.k.?"

for the longest time after that we only did fast food...

I'm glad you are all having such a great laugh at my expense and I hope you are terribly self consious next time!

 

[mum4jenn]

I have been laughing so hard I have tears rolling down my face. I have a story similar to the OPs.


MANY years ago I went out on this blind date. I had recently lots lots of weight and was all dressed up in black tuxedo pants, bright red tuxedo shirt(yes that long ago) black high heels, make up and hair perfect. We go to see a movie (it was packed)and I crossed my legs. I did not want to seem too fidgety so I never uncrossed them the whole time. The end of the movie comes along and it is time to get up. I stand up and go to take a step and I fell like a ton of bricks in front of all those people. I thought I would just die because i was trying so hard to impress this guy. He helped me up and asked if I was OK. Then I go to walk again and the SAME thing happens!! It never occurred to me that my leg had fallen asleep until the second time I fell flat. I was horrified to say the least.


We did date after that for several months!!

I had forgotten about this moment, until all of you guy's embarrassing moments triggered my memories. Kinda like those people who have horrid things happen to them, and they supress it for years and years...

It was a summer day in the Magic Kingdom. The boys and I headed up there and were enjoying ourself until...

Right outside PoTC the sky just opened up. I'd lived there for 8 months and this was weird... no cloud warning just instant RAIN. I was wearing these cute little drawstring thin khaki's and a cute little thing white t-shirt... and purple flip flops.

It all happened too quick - I was drenched. CRAZY drenched. And then my *mature* teen and almost teen boys started:

Mom's wearing a purple thong!!! **insatiable laughter**
Not just a purple thong, a purple BRA too! **hideous giggling**

I look down, and my clothes had turned C L E A R. All you saw WAS my purple thong and purple bra! OMG!!!

I instructed my laughing children to get in front of me, and get behind me... and we started BRISKLY walking (running) out of the park. They did so, but wouldnt form the tight seal I was looking for... and we got to Main Street.

Because it was still raining, most all park patrons had gathered under the awnings - lining the street.

I was a walking porn-parade. With 2 boys taking up the front and the rear.


TERRIBLY EMBARRASSED. HORRIDLY SO!

At least I matched - I did have purple flip flops on.
