31 of the Funniest ‘Well… This Is Awkward’ Moments

We all have horrifyingly awkward moments that we will never recover from. Like the Redditor who offered his date a ride home before remembering that he hadn’t cleaned out his car. On top of the car being messy, it included an array of questionable items — namely, a chainsaw, one glove and three feet of rope. Just what every girl likes to see after meeting a guy from a dating app

To that end, Redditors have recalled the times all they could do was shake their head, laugh and say, “Well… this is awkward,” and boy, is there plenty of cringe to go around.

JasAkiko . 11y My doctor was doing an examination. Breathing in and out, it came time to take off my coat so he go listen to my chest. Alright, and big breasts... We both remained silent. I had the hardest time not laughing. It felt like I was in a movie. My whole life is awkward though. 2.1k

 11y At a party I told my wife's friend she looked good - for once. I have absolutely no idea why I added for once and trying to talk my way out of it just made it worse. She was cool about it, but still I felt like an ass. ... 2.5k

foreverwithyou . 11y Once in high school a guy passed me a note saying he couldn't stop thinking about me and at the very end it said something along the lines of look over here.

Well that was awkward. ... 334

Jplopinyourpants . 11y My first final of my college career, I was climbing over some rows of seats to get to an empty one in a huge lecture hall. As I'm passing the last row to get to my seat in the row in front my heel comes up and kicks the desk of a female student already in the middle of her test. Not a big deal, except she had a steaming hot cup of coffee that just exploded all over her lap and her test. She looks at me in horror and pain and my response was an
A_Rusty_Lamp . 11y I was out shopping with my girlfriend at a Victoria's Secret. She had wandered away form me and I saw her looking at some thongs. I came up behind her and kissed her on the neck and whispered, You would look good in that, but a lot better out of them. It was at this time I realized that this was not my girlfriend, but a girl with similar clothing and the exact same hair color. I've never sprinted out of a mall faster in my life. ... 540
ETA_was_here 11y This happened yesterday. At a car park I spot a free spot. I usually prefer to park the car backwards, so I stop the car, put the car in reverse and want to turn backwards into the parking spot. But there is an old lady walking right pass my car, so I wait. As she walked by, she suddenly start trying to open my passenger side door. After a few attempts she finally opens the door and gets in. At the moment I am too surprised to say something. It takes a few seconds before she realizes something
mcfaddon 11y I am on my second date with a girl that I met on okcupid. We were really hitting it off. When it was time to leave I had offered to give her a ride home as she had taken the bus to get there. This was not my plan from the beginning. My car was clean but I had not made it date ready. We are walking to my car and it hits me that I had borrowed a chainsaw from my father for some yard work and it was still in the back of the car, visible
Rumassog . 11y This was back when I played high school football. I got hit really hard on a play where our team fumbled the ball. Hurt and dejected I limped off to the sidelines with my head hung low, grabbed some water from the cooler near the bench and sat down. It was only when I began to sip my water that I realized, Hey, this isn't water! This is Gatorade! But...my team's too cheap to buy Gator--uh oh... Yeah I had limped off to the wrong sideline. The entire opposing team was just watching me sit on their
beefwich 11y In high school, I made out with my ex-girlfriend on her front porch while accidentally leaning against her doorbell. And it was one of those ultra hormone-y make out sessions where we were basically trying to get all of our saliva into the other one's mouth. Apparently, with whatever model doorbell chime she had, if you held the button down, it never gave you the dong part of the ding-dong. Rather, it just continuously DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINGS. Her dad was, eh, less than thrilled when he opened the door. ... 801
portugueseprawnsoup . . 11y Once I was in a working mans club when all of a sudden I needed to take a massive dump. I proceeded to empty my arse in the only cubicle in the mens toilet. As well as being a huge load of shit, it was a messy wipe so a lot of shit + a lot paper = blocked toilet. After the 3rd attempt to flush it I thought 'fuck it' and I unlocked the door to find a bloke in a wheelchair waiting to use the toilet. Не then wheeled himself in and awkwardly clambered on
thattallone . 11y Working at a village shop and being incredibly socially inept leads to some fun times. Guy comes in with his really spoilt kid. She wants a chocolate bar. The dad says 'let me just check the carbohydrates'. I start giggling because I thought the dad was being awkward and silly like my dad used to be. Не looks up and stares me right in the eyes and says through gritted teeth 'She is diabetic'. I look down at the kid. Realise at this point the child has lost her foot to diabetes. ... 787
Bigpappapunk. 1 11y Co-worker approached me after being out of the office for a few weeks, asking if I knew why she was out. I said No, vacation?. No she says, My son died in a wreck. Holy shit, I had no idea I say, to which she then proceeds to tell me that she knew I had no idea because a sorry for your loss card from the office was sent to her where everyone wrote in it and signed it, including me. The only difference was that I had written Happy Birthday with an enormous smiley face.
darkchill 1 11y Few years ago, would have morning coffee with work colleague in his office. Noticed a picture on the wall... about 15 ft away... of him and what I assumed was a rugby player standing with the Rugby World Cup. Asked him who the guy was... he replied 'That's me!' 'No,' said I. 'The guy on the other side, with you'. Не looked at me and in a very unemotional voice just said 'That's my wife.' ... 2.2k
Blu3j4y 11y When I found out that I had slept with a band member's wife. This is a little convoluted, so bear with my poor story telling skills: I met a cute girl at a bar-gig, and we were attracted to each other. We went back to my place and sexed it up. We had carnal relations a few times after that. No big ideal, just some occasional sex... Fast forward about five years - I'm in a different band, and this same woman walks in. I approach her during the break and give her a hug and make some small talk.
