To ask what has been the most embarrassing moment of your life?

[Pricklypear12]

What has been the most embarrassing moment/event in your life so far?

The twenty-first of a friend of mine, held at their parents' house. I pulled this bloke and when everyone went to sleep crashed out everywhere, we went into their dining room where no-one was. Started shagging.

Just as he came I looked up and realised the door had a glass panel in it. And friend's dad was watching.

I was so glad that friend turned into a drama llama and I never had to see any of the family again.

During our end-of-school photo of the whole yeargroup in year 11, I fainted and simultaneously spewed all over the person standing in front of me.

@QualityStreeet thats hilarious!

Just this week. Flying home on an overnight flight. Had a horrible sucky headache and decided to take two paracetamol. And realised straightaway I was going to be sick. As luck would have it the toilet that was right next to us (we were in emergency exit seats) was occupied. I was sick on the floor next to my seat. I was mortified. BA staff were very kind and moved us to other seats - the flight was far from full fortunately.

Walked over a grating Marilyn Monroe style on a busy street. My skirt blew up all around my face but it took me a few seconds to realise my not very attractive knickers were on show.

Or complaining about a noisy work man to a woman who revealed to me she was his wife. She was so nice about it. But the worst part ( or best part) is that I was about to mention his unattractive arse hanging out of his trousers. I'm so glad she stopped me

Changing my tampon in busy shopping centre toilets. I had a heavy flow, I’d been hanging on a while to find a loo and the tampon string had become soaked through. As I removed it, it shot under the cubicle door to where there was a lengthy queue.

My mum once had a very embarrassing moment years back in the mid 90s when I was in my teens.
In Tesco around the clothing department and we were looking around. Mum suddenly spots this small trolley parked up on its own full of bras, knickers, t shirts etc. She starts to rummage through thinking it was one of those reduced items baskets. She held a couple of bras up and whispered to me "God they're bloody huge" when suddenly we heard a cough "ahem" and this woman said "that's my trolley, do you mind?" mum was mortified and said sorry and we legged it. I was about 14 and was as embarrassed as hell!

Slipped on a wet railway station platform then cried. I was mortified that I actually cried.
It was peak commuter time in a city centre and the next day a couple of regulars commuters came upto me asking how I was as they were worried as I was crying. It was very kind of them but I was cringing about the crying.

Lived in a flat (big old house converted into flats) where the bathroom had no windows, flat below was empty. Had a shower to get ready for work, the bathroom door handle gave out (something had disconnected in the door) and I was stuck in the bathroom. In only a towel. No one else in the flat.

After 3 hours of trying to kick, punch and body slam the door down, I hear noise from below. It was some builders doing work on the flat below! They eventually heard my cry for help. I sent them to the hotel down the road (5 minutes walk) where I was working at the time to tell the manager I’m stuck in the bathroom (I was very late at this point).

They bring the manager to my front door. He tries to boot the front door down. No luck (to be fair it was a big old wooden door). The only place there was any access to the flat was the bedroom window that was open. Manager calls the fire brigade, they climb into my bedroom window and rescue me from the bathroom. 3 firemen and me in a towel absolutely red with embarrassment. They were very lighthearted about it of course.

I was quite ready to accept my death that morning lol. But at least my boss knew I wasn’t lying :)

@RedWine123 That is brilliant. And yes, a cast iron reason for being late. Do you now take your phone into the bathroom with you every time?

@TeetotalKoala Religiously!

Doing a fanny fart when I sat down in a sauna with just one other man I didn't know in there.

Was out shopping when I was about 17. Felt a breeze, on my arse...jeans had split and it was freezing and tipping it down. Had to tie my coat around my waist to get home and probably looked like a lunatic.

I still sometimes wonder how many people saw my arse cheek that day...

Pooing on my bedroom floor after too much straight southern comfort and then flooding the house when I went for a bath to get clean and fell asleep in it as it was running...

Oh god, here we go....

I went for a kayaking photo shoot with my school team, about age 13. I was on my period (very heavy at that age) but didn't think anything of it. As it was just a school photo shoot, we were told to wear swimming costumes rather than a full wetsuit, and then a life jacket over the top to look the part. Anyway, we got in the water, lined up for our photos and all was fine, but then of course I suddenly capsized - what luck! I got out of the river and started walking towards the changing rooms, away from my kayaking colleagues, and heard shrieks, cackles of laughter and expressions of shock and horror from the team behind me (and the 'popular' guys on the climbing wall adjacent). I looked down and long story short, my sanitary towel that was COMPLETELY full (as was due to change) had become saturated with water, and I was standing in a pool of my own period blood with a big trail of it behind me. I spun a lie that I'd cut my leg but of course everybody knew the truth! I legged it, dripping with blood, to the changing rooms and cried for about 15 minutes. That one still haunts me to this day. I'm extremely glad to say that I use tampons now!!

Haha, another one...had an interview for a promotion at work. Interviewer went off to get something from the printer. When he came back I was staring at a huge picture on the wall.

He asked what I thought of it, and I said, "I'm not keen on generic office artwork to be honest."

He says...."My wife painted that."

Loooong silence, then..."She doesn't like it either, that's why I bought it into my office."

Nearly died....

Got the job though....

On the maternity ward with my newborn DS:

Tipped entire jug of water over my bed - staff were not impressed or happy - in my defence I was recovering from an epidural which provided virtually no pain relief but temporarily paralysed my left leg.....

In the same 24 hours - the finger on my right hand where I wore two important rings given to me by my late Nana suddenly swelled until it was purple - the hospital fireman had to come up with bolt cutters to save my finger.

I was, from then, seen as "THAT patient"........

While working - One day I was wearing a pair of lovely wide legged black trousers that went on a mission to kill me. I tumbled down a flight of stairs as my pointy flat caught in the hem, they wrapped themselves round my legs as I got up from my chair and I nearly crushed my team leader, and then fully face planted in the staff room. Spent the rest of the day trying to keep them hitched - my final humiliation occurred on the way home. I popped (carefully) into Tesco and bought a bottle of red wine because by God I needed it by then. Outside in the town centre, fumbled my bags, caught my toe AGAIN and went down like a sack of potatoes. Bottle of wine smashed and it was carnage. Oddly the only people who rushed to help me were foreigners - my fellow townspeople gave me a wide berth and the implication was obviously that I was drunk.....chance would have been a fine thing......

While heavily pregnant at a barbecue, I was sitting in a garden chair, and neglected to observe that one side of it was in the soil of a flowerbed....... I was holding a burger in one hand and a drink in the other as I slowly started to subside and being the proportion of a small whale couldn't get to me feet - in slow motion the world tipped sideways while people rushed towards me in horror as I hit the deck...... managed not to drop the burger or drink though - think my hands had gone into some sort of panic induced spasm and hel onto them for dear life - I was fine and so was DS.

Running up the packed with Saturday shoppers arcade after EX DH where we lived, I fell flat on my face and winded myself - managed to scramble up but couldn't do anything but gasp or wheeze as I tried to limpingly catch up to ex DH who thought I was making a huge embarrassing fuss even though my knee was bleeding .......

That's just off the top of my head. I have embarrassing moments down to a fine art.......

OP your milk squirting one reminded me of mine!
I am a model and had just finished a shoot (bridal wear), I hadn't expressed for about 6 hours so my boobs were like rocks.

The stylist was helping me take off the dress, brushed my boob with her arm and milk squirted out and over the glass top table. She pretended not to see, but clearly couldn't have missed it. I quickly grabbed my cardigan to mop it up🤭😳

@oldqueen1969 "managed not to drop the burger or drink though" hilarious!

I got an "in" within a specialised team pending I fitted in with the team and passed training etc. Was a job I was desp for and badly wanted to fit in with team (I was going to be only female so wanted to fit in even more)

First time meeting my potential manager who was a renowned hard ass, he was discussing the team members who I had never met before, he brought up one member and said *its Ian with one eye"

Very dramatically I was " omg he only has one eye, that's terrible!! what happened to his other eye?"

Yup. He was talking about the letter "I" in the spelling of Ian. He nearly pissed himself laughing while I died a little inside. Then on my first day in the team I walk in to meet Ian with the one i to find him wearing an eye patch for effect.

It still gets brought up hahahaha

on one of the first ‘dates’ with my boyfriend when we were 14 we were crossing a busy road across from the bus station to get to the shops, and i slipped in the middle of the road. it was close to christmas so there were people everywhere, and loads of traffic, and i was so embarrassed that the only logical thing i could think to do was just lie in the middle of the road 🙈 the lights changed to green and i still lay there as cars honked and people rushed over to check on me. someone fetched a first aider from the nearest shop and they came running out with a medical kit and one of those silver heat blankets. it was only when an ambulance was mentioned that i made a miraculous recovery and leapt up from the ground. it makes me cringe 14 years later and my boyfriend still howls with laughter whenever he thinks about it.

I picked up my new glasses from the opticians, put them on, opened the shop door.......and tripped down the step. For added amusement there was a popular street entertainer next to the shop so a crowd of people saw me.

When I lived with my ex, she had a much older male friend, who was kind of like a surrogate Dad to her. He had a key to our flat, in case of emergencies.
Once, we went away on holiday for a fortnight, and the night before we left, we had a bit of a naughty session, using quite a few toys.
The toys were cleaned in the bathroom afterwards, and left to dry (including a strap on, hanging on the shower rail.
When we came back from holiday, we found that he'd let himself into our flat and had redecorated our bathroom as a surprise.
Very lovely of him, but I was mortified that he'd had to navigate around our toys, including replacing the shower curtain etc to match the new theme.
I could never look him in the eye again.

A million years ago, when I was at secondary school, there was a craze of doing a spontaneous “pile on” in the school corridors - where someone would be pushed over and then everyone nearby just lay on top of them. I know, I know. It was acceptable in the 80s.

Anyway, I was partaking in one of these pile ons one lunchtime, and I found it so funny, I wet myself. Except, due to the nature of the game, I wasn’t the only one affected iyswim

Of course, I played innocent and pretended I had no idea what the wet stuff was and I was merely an innocent victim of the mystery piss artist. I even suggested someone must have spilled a glass of water. It was awful.

I’m sure they all knew it was me though.

Still haunts me to this day and it was 40 years ago now.
