Socially awkward?

Most people are fairly socially awkward, but we wont admit it. There's quite a few things we do, think or say in a day then for a long time afterwards wonder what possessed you to do that particular thing.

I've added a few examples I've found in either in my own personal life or read online at some point or another.


When you're walking and suddenly become very conscious about how you're walking and start walking all weird or so you think.

You open a birthday card or any other holiday and you pretend not to notice there is money inside while you're reading the card.

Asking someone to repeat themselves 3 times then finally just laughing and hoping for the best because you still didn't hear them properly.

Accidentally make a sound that sounds like a fart, then keep trying to make the same sound to prove it wasn't a fart.

Have imaginary arguments in your head and making the corresponding facial expressions and look really strange walking alone.

Not being able to say "Well this is fun" without sounding like you're having the worst time of your life.

The weird little dance thing you do when you're walking in someone's path and trying to decide which way you're going.

If you get to a restaurant/theater/ wherever before whoever you're meeting there and you don't know what to do with yourself.


There's so many more, but you need to remember it's okay to have awkward moments.

I want to hear your thoughts on this? What types of awkward or weird moments have you had? What do you do when you're having one? How do you get past it?
