When your neighbor breaks up with his longtime girlfriend, and you go over to his house to chat, and she stops by...

We really REALLY liked this chick, but neighbor and her just had soem issues that he couldn't work through. I felt so weird yesterday when I saw her, I wanted to say "Hey how's it going?" But I knew things were going BAD, so I didn't, so instead I jst said "Hi!" and gathered my kids and left.

when going through the drive-thru
 

when asked if I want ketchup I sometimes say "yes" even if I'm not sure, sort of a just-in-case yes. Of course, then I feel obligated to use one, even if I don't really want to...

...but if they don't ask me, and put like 19 ketchup packets in the bag, I can easily leave every one of them in there unused if I don't want any.

I wonder if the boyfriend got the talk from his gf?

You know what's freakin' awkward? Having to tell your ex-boyfriend's family that you broke up because he was too much of a chicken to do so. Hello, you have another girlfriend listed on facebook... don't you think that they were going to start asking questions soon?

The writing for Secret Life makes me feel awkward.

What high schooler says "oral sex" like twenty times in a conversation? And haven't these kids heard of con-dams?

BLAH BLAH BLAH SEX SEX BLAH SEX ORAL SEX BLAH BLAH CRAZY SEX BLAH BLAH

I feel bad for sister #1, but damn I am laughing so hard right now. That is such a sitcom-y moment.

als463...<hugs> and I got your back!!

33girl, thanks. You have no idea how much that really means to me. I really appreciate it. I've always got your back, too.

I posted a FB status and a friend's ex-bf (very recently EXed) posted "See now you're then kinda woman I wanna marry!"

I was like......:confused:......*shuffle shuffle*.....doesheknowshecanseethis???

[QUOTE=DrPhil;2054585]I feel awkward that some of you feel awkward about the things that make you feel awkward. C'mon, TonyB06, awkward over packets of ketchup? ;)

Yep, generally speaking, I keep the perps, the annoying and the arrogant/self-absorbed out of my circle. ...sooo, when it comes to awkward, ketchup packets is pretty much all I got.

Awkward when someone tweets a sexual comment about their ex that is blatantly about your current significant other...

I feel awkward when I am the only "new" person in the room.

ie. That party you are a guest to and everyone there is either family or has known each other since 4th grade. You just can't follow all those stories. "OMG remember Susie Q?" Five hours later ""OMG my dad did this." "Wowwie! That is soooo your dad!!!'"

When I'm flattered. Which has been happening with alarming frequency. I fear it may go to my head.

But mostly I don't know how to respond. And this is welcome flattery.

This doesn't make me awkward so much as suspicious. One compliment is great but if someone tells me my smile is pretty, I say "Thank you," and then they say it 3 more times, I wonder what they want.

Yeah if this were anyone but the people involved I'd be more creeped/suspicious. These are potential/actual romantic partners and I've gotten past the, "you're kidding right?" stage and am hovering somewhere between the, "you're slightly crazy" and "wow, maybe I am kind of awesome" stages.

It's a really nice feeling, I just haven't gotten my feet under me about it.
