Your Awkwardest Moments

[Ragster2448]

Well, the title says it all. I always hate it when there's awkward silence, then when someone tries to talk you talk at the same time. Then everyone is silent again, and it's even more awkward. I have this happen to me all the time.

every day is an awkward moment :U

also the cure for awkward silence:

"You are talking to an acquaintance or having dinner with your coworkers.  The conversation suddenly comes to a crossroads and no one knows where to steer it.  The silence has extended past the 6-second mark and the awkwardness is increasing exponentially.  Worst of all, you were the last person to speak, so everyone thinks the awkwardness is your fault.

The Solution:  Sudden, loud noise"

I do this all the time.  I'm not an awkward person to begin with, but most of my friends can be awkward or can't find something else to talk about.  So I'll just yell out "BLOOPABLAPOO."  Works like a charm.  Except in restaurants...everyone looks at you like I'm a freak. AS IF THEY HADN'T KNOWN.

Try "There is awkward silence. You try to break it. Awkward silence continues as if nothing had happened".

Awkward even when you should have been used to it. *sigh*

I am a very likable person. Except that I'm so shy when I meet new people it's not funny :/. this means LOTS OF AKWARD MOMENTS. If they can get past that we''ll probably be great friends

Last Thursday, 2 pm. I had friends in my room at Uni, and since it was late and I had a class at 8:30 am, they decided to leave. My male friend rushes out because he doesn't want to miss his bus, which turned out to be the last one of the day. He didn't get to the bus stop on time... in fact he got lost. xD I didn't want him to walk back to his apartment, because it was a ~2 hours walk, so I told him to come back in my room. We didn't really know what to do, so we talked until 3 am. I offered him to share my bed since I really wanted to sleep and he couldn't really sleep anywhere else. My bed is freaking small. It was kind of awkward.
