Secondhand Embarrassment: Stories That Exactly Capture “Cringe
No matter how much we try to avoid them, awkward situations happen to everyone, and they often come at the worst times.
While many people feel really embarrassed, some just laugh it off. It’s even funnier when they share these moments online, turning an awkward situation into a funny memory.
The Story:
My wife and I sleep naked. One morning, I woke up to find brown streaks all over my legs, arms, and a big spot on my stomach. I asked my wife, “What happened?” and saw that her back and arms were covered too.
It turns out she had been eating chocolate chips in bed, forgot about them, and the bag spilled and melted between us while we slept. We laughed it off, but it was definitely a surprising thing to wake up to.
