This is a question Cringe!

Chickenlady winces, "I told a Hugh Grant/Divine Brown joke to my dad, pretending that Ms Brown was chewing gum so she'd be more American. Instead I just appeared to be still giving the blow-job. Even as I'm writing this I'm cringing inside."

Tell us your cringeworthy stories of embarrassment. Go on, you're amongst friends here...

Why oh why oh why oh why.
There was a guy I knew for quite a few years. We had met at polytechnic and we all hung around together in a group although he was more on the periphery. So years pass and we're all buddies and for some strange reason that I cannot figure out to this day, I get it into my head that he's interested in me and knowing he's quite shy realises he hasn't said anything due to this shyness.

So what do I do, I write a letter to him declaring my interest and basically saying we should hook up. It's only after posting this letter that my strange hallucinations regarding this chap lift and I realise what a numpty I am. There's no way he would be interested in me that way as I'm soooooooo not his type and quite frankly he's not mine.

The strange thing is that he turns up at my house with mutual friends and says absolutely nothing about the letter and converses with me as normal with no reticence or awkwardness and I follow his lead and say nothing also.

So I'm thinking, did he get the letter in the first place or is he just blanking the whole episode. I start to plan my answer should the letter be brought up and decide to deny all knowledge of it and state that it must be a prank. This is quite silly as no-ne we know would play such a prank in the first place. We're all in our mid to late twenties I might add and not teenagers.

So anyway eventually time passes and the letter is never mentioned and the chap and I lose touch but even 15 years later thinking about this I still cringe with embarrasement at that letter. Thankfully I now can't remember what I wrote but I know it was really soppy. *cringe*

Awww
Yet I'm totally sidetracked by the fact I read Pyrotechnic instead of Polytechnic.

Now I understand…

Where you perfected your excellent love-letter writing skills…

*gazes longingly at love letters from ‘BGB’...written with what looks suspiciously like my own handwriting*
