Help! Foot In Mouth Syndrome.....
Have you stuck your foot in your mouth and said some shit then was immediate once you realized it like oh fuck my bad that's not what I meant or I shouldn't have said that?
I tell an acquaintance that:
Me: we're going to need as much money saved/invested as possible since (xyz person is in office).
Her: Wait I like that guy.
Me (In my head): why I assume since she looks like me (well actually I think I'm hotter) wed have same political values....fuckity fuck fuck I should never have said that
Another time my family member converse with the waitress
Family member: hey are you pregnant?
Waitress: no :/
Me (in my head): Omg I can't believe you just asked her that?!? I'm not with her please don't spit in my food
Re: Help! Foot In Mouth Syndrome.....
I have really bad issues with this. For the most part I do not dwell on it. For some crazy reason something popped into my head the other day though- when I was in HS (like 300 years ago) a guy that was dating my bestie got a call at my house. I answered and told the boy it as his Mom and that she sounded "sexy". Everyone dead panned me. His Mom had died in a car accident with the boy in the car. I knew it but didn't really think before I spoke.
Don't beat yourself up- we have all been there. Likely, the only person remembering the incident is you.
