To ask your "glitch in the matrix" moment?

Couldn’t find DDs gymnastics leotard one week which was odd in itself as it was always kept in the same place.

She had her lesson that evening so I drove out to a second hand shop during the day and picked her up a bright red leotard from there. Came home and it completely vanished, not in the car, bags, rang the shop and I hadn’t left it there, it was nowhere to be seen.

I normally wouldn’t have taken her without a leotard. I did, and we had a horrific roll over car accident on the way out there. I honestly believe something was trying to stop us going.

I once worked nights in a care home. One night all the taps of the baths and sinks turned on full blast. All 4 of us carers heard it and ran to turn them off except when we got there they were off and completely dry.

I was walking through our town centre and spotted a plant shop that reminded me of someone….low and behold I bump into them, not seen them for 10+ years. A week later I was shopping and thought ‘imagine if I bump into Mary again’ walk into the shop and there’s Mary!

Manager: well where’s your old one gone?
Me: … parallel universe?

I still wonder where they ended up.

I have an electric pencil sharpener- it’s my pride and joy. Being a teacher I sharpen a lot of pencils. One night couldn’t find it anywhere . Was livid thinking kids had taken it. Searched high and low and one day kids went away to their dads and I went to walk up the stairs and there it was sitting on the bottom stair. No way kids could have done it as I’d been up and down all day doing laundry etc. was very bizarre

When I was in my 20s, I travelled to New Orleans alone. I caught a bus to a tourist attraction in a woodland area. It started to get dark much faster than I had expected and I was really lost. I then noticed a man was following me. The faster I ran the faster he started to follow. I had now idea where I was and have always had a terrible sense of direction. I exited the woods and somehow ended up at the exact spot where the bus I needed was sitting and about to leave. The next bus wasn't for another 90 mins.

To this day I have no idea how I found the bus. The timing was just impeccable and I think saved my life. Not a normal glitch in the matrix story I know but one I always think of

The bread knife literally lifted itself out of the secure knife stand and threw itself on the kitchen counter towards me. I just stood staring at it for a good minute or two open mouthed.

While walking through Piccadilly Circus soon after a breakup, I had a vivid vision that everything was going to be alright and someone would propose to me one day. Dated various people over the next couple of years. But then met one who turned out to be a keeper, and we had our first kiss in Piccadilly Circus.

It didn’t fully work out with him in the end so my vision didn’t entirely come true but I have always thought it was freaky!

We have a horrible wicker plantpot that belonged to the woman who lived in this house before us (and we think may have died here, she's certainly still about. We call her Zelda.). Every time we have tried to get rid of it, we can't. We even took it to the tip and put it in the domestic waste. When we got home it was still here. So, either there were two of the dratted things, OR we put something else in the bin, OR something happened that we can't explain. We've also tried putting it in the shed, and it just keeps resurfacing. And none of us are prone to those kind of pranks.

In our new build house I went upstairs to find a huge card of earrings that I had recently bought from primark all taken off the card and laid out next to the backs 😱

I grew up in a haunted house that I then purchased after my dad died with my ex Dh.

I was terrified that it had followed me and my new Dh - luckily that was it ( for that house anyway).

Oh god, yes deja vu moments. I had forgotten all about them.
They're brain scrambling moments.

So, when I was about 17 I was walking through town with my mum. Turned my head and across the street saw an absolutely beautiful man in all leather. Like leather coat, trousers, top etc. He had yellow eyes. We stared at each other (walking but heads turning if that makes sense) for what felt like ages, time felt really slow, and the look in his eyes was so cold and hateful, like he wanted to come over and kill me, I swear all my hairs were on edge. The moment passed and I asked my mum if she'd seen the guy staring at me and tried to turn to show her but he was gone. Really freaky and it's stayed with me for 10 years!

Things are always going missing in my flat, there one minute totally gone the next and never found again, bizarre !!

I have a lot!
I was born in another country and moved to the UK at the age of 7.
When we had not long moved to the UK, my family and I went to a chinese restaurant. I started telling them how much it reminded me of the one we used to go to in our old country and they asked me which one I meant. I described it in detail as I'd gone often as a small child and remembered everything down to what my dad liked from the menu, the colours of the fish in the fishtank, the pictures on the wall and the tassels on the menus. Even the name of a friend we had bumped into there. They stared at me and said my description was completely correct but it was impossible that I could remember going there as they had taken me once as a 9 month old baby and I had slept the whole time. It had closed down shortly after.

A couple more I forgot to put in my post:

I bought a lovely set of six cake forks from an antique shop. They live in our cutlery canteen and are hand washed as they are old. I've day one vanished. Literally. There were six in the canteen and then the next time we took them out there were only five. We've no idea where it went.

On Saturday I was in the pub with a friend. At one point a gorgeous young woman in a very distinctive and unique outfit walked past me left to right towards the bar. Two minutes later she walked past again. Left to right. Towards the bar. And a few minutes later she went back right to left carrying drinks. I was so shocked I mentioned it to my friend who didn't believe me, but it wasn't busy and I definitely saw her walk the same direction twice, as though she'd been teleported back and had to walk it again. Really weird.

I was working in a rural part of the country for a summer job with 4 others and we were also to share a nearby old house for the duration.

I'd never met the others before or been in that part of the country. First day we got into the house we had coffee and biscuits then chatted. I went upstairs to check out the rooms, as did the others, and I chose a more modern room. A few weeks later I asked one of my colleagues for something and she sent me up to her bedroom, saying it was on her bedside locker. When I opened the door I was quite surprised to see the room had been done up from its previously old decor, so I asked her "when did the owners do up your room"? She was equally surprised and insisted it was exactly the same as it had always been.

Except I'd seen an old room with yellowish wallpaper, bare boards, an dark wooden cupboard and old bed. The "new" room had modern carpet, no cupboard and white walls.

Well, I doubt anyone will believe me! But... I’m sitting in my living room, opened this thread, thinking I wish I had something I’d experienced to contribute, when some water fell onto my feet. There’s no water anywhere and nothing above.

The timing of it as I opened the thread just adds to the weirdness.

I have had a few premonitions over my life, not loads but they’ve been very strong and memorable:

• I was walking back home from the bus stop while a schoolgirl, and as our house came into view, I just thought “oh God please don’t let it be my brother” (who had gone travelling) because I suddenly knew someone had died. When I got inside my mum was crying as my aunt had passed away.

• a very good friend and I were due a month apart with our first baby and we texted each other a lot about our pregnancies. One afternoon I heard my phone buzz, and when I saw a notification for a text from her, I went ice cold because without reading it I knew she was texting with bad news. She was messaging to say her little one was stillborn.

• randomly, one morning I woke up just knowing a Hollywood actor had died. I checked the news on my laptop (didn’t have a smartphone then) and saw the very sad news about Heath Ledger.

My husband’s nephew was getting married and wanted to wear his grandfather’s watch on the day so asked my husband if he could get it to him. He said he couldn’t because he didn’t have it, I knew he didn’t have it either. The only family belongings he has are kept safely.
A few days later he was working on his bike in the garage. He keeps the garage very tidy, we use it instead of the loft and all boxes are on shelves. On this day though there was a random taped up box in the middle of the floor, and he got fed up of stepping around it and before putting it away he opened it up to see what was inside because he didn’t remember seeing it before. Inside was his fathers watch and a few other items. His family all live three hours away so it wasn’t as if one of them had dropped it off and neither of us have any memory of him being given it, and if he had then it would’ve been well looked after in the house and not in a taped up box in the garage.

My phone went missing. Granted I'd been out on the beer but I got home, texted a friend I was home, googled some crap, put phone on bedside table, woke up in the morning and it was gone. Bedroom door locked, front door locked, back door locked!
Reported it to phone company as lost/stolen and then had 2 police officers turn up checking my room, moving my bed, beside table etc to look for my missing phone, it was gone. I didn't call the police the phone company did!!
Very strange experience because even to this day, I remember texting my friend good night, putting it down and snuggling up!! Where the hell did it go?

@Tavimama
Sounds like magic mushrooms on the menu!
Although Kate Winslet has a house near Chichester..it's quite big and near the campsites....

@TheFoundation I'd assume that you'd had an early morning dream triggered by hearing the back door clicking in the wind, having been left open over night, or by the sound of an interrupted intruder leaving through it? That is a possible explanation, but as the door was open I doubt I could have heard it 'click' and my bedroom was was at the other side of the house.
