Can someone help me emigrate by bedtime?

After putting on my dress this morning I realised I had no clean pants. No big deal I thought, I’ll stick a wash on and as I’m WFH it doesn’t matter. After lunch I needed to pop super quickly to the shops, I just hadn’t bothered with pants by this point in the day and didn’t want to ‘waste’ a clean pair.

BIG MISTAKE

It is a windy day in London which I didn’t really realise until I left the house. Shop visit was fine, drove there, grab my bits and drove home.

As I was walking the tiny distance from my car to my front door my neighbour was leaving his house. I don’t know them that well but always say hello. I waved broadly and at that exact second….yep, a gust of wind blew my skirt right up.

Now I can’t be 100% sure but there is a good chance I just flashed my neighbour. What the fuck do I do!!??

btw I NEVER usually go without pants.

AIBU to pack a bag and leave forever right now.

I often go out knickerless in summer when wearing longer dresses and the scenario you have outlined is one of my major fears so I usually have my arms clamped to my sides.

Alternatively we could take a tip from the Royal Family - Royal ladies always have small weights sewn into the hems of their skirts apparently, to avoid embarrassing flashes of knicker as they descend aeroplane steps etc

Oh lord.

You can only go commando with trousers or a long skirt on.

That's just facts.

Well at it was a Marilyn Munroe type of exposure, relieved to learn you didn't have a erm naked job

I'd wink saucily at the neighbour next time I saw them and style it out. In my head. I'd actually stay in for around 3 years.

Isn’t grabbing your bits a bit unhygienic to do in public without pants?

Parkmybentley · 15/08/2024 19:10

If you have an actual muff then no one would notice if they were far away. It would look like black pants ?
If clean shaven or up close then yeah awks

I laughed where you said that you "grabbed your bits" in the shop!

Re neighbour- least said, soonest mended, I think!

Don’t do anything, just brazen it out. They might have seen something, they might not, too late now.

GalileoHumpkins · 15/08/2024 17:26

Don't do anything, it's highly unlikely either of you are ever going to mention it or stick a sign in your window that says 'sorry that you saw my muff'.
