    Tired Most embarrasing thing ever !!!!

    this story makes me cringe every time I think about it! It was a total idiot move on my part and I learned my lesson the hard way:

    Earlier today I met my academic advisor (i'm working on my senior thesis so this is someone I see often one-on-one) to go over points for the letter of rec he's writing me for grad school apps. Imagine a super soft-spoken and mild mannered 65 year old Epidemiology professor. He sits down at the table in a cafe close to campus where we always meet and I'm writing a paper for another class and have my phone plugged into my laptop charging. MY PHONE HAS NUDE PICS. yes, this is going exactly where you think its going! I totally forget my phone is plugged into my laptop and he asks me for my resume. Well, I don't have it with me but I have it on my computer so I pull it up and just as I turn the laptop around for him to view, my iphoto on my laptop decides to update and syncs with my phone. ALL MY NUDE PICS POP UP ON MY COMPUTER SCREEN. he looks confused and then shocked "um this isn't your resume!"
    Ladies, yes I know I'm stupid for not deleting this pics, but just for a better understanding....these aren't tasteful nudes....these are bang bro's worthy explicit up close dildo-in-pussy pics! like there is no way to mistake it for something else or unsee it!
    there's a good 15 seconds of total silence and we both don't know what to say and then he thankfully changes the subject. At this point I'm mortified and want to crawl under the table! I have to continue looking him in the eye for the rest of the meeting and then I practically run out of there once its over!!!

    Lol! Omg! I can't even imagine what I'd do if I were you.

    Well unless this dude is a monk then I'm sure he can't be that shocked by it. He's probably seen a plethora of tits and ass in his 65 years of life. Sometimes The people who are soft spoken are the biggest closet freaks.

    It may not have been any easier for him to keep looking you in the eye. Just hope for the best.

    The advisor sounds like a professional. One of the tenets of being a professional is that they try to make others feel comfortable. It sounds like he tried to do that with a little humor.

    Trust me, you're fine. I'll go out on a limb and say you might look back on this 10 years from now and have a laugh about it**

    Stuff like this is very common. I had a phone systems repair technician start up his work laptop to show me something. When he resumed his PC from sleep it was playing this porn video, full screen, audio and all. It was sort of gritty P.O.V./closeup homemade hardcore doggy-style a$$-slapping amateur porn. For all I know, he filmed it. My response was similar to your advisor's response. I mean, what else CAN you say?

    ** please don't flame me. I'm serious while trying to be sensitive for you.

    I would send him an email. Thanking him for helping you with (whatever it was)...and then apologizing for him seeing the images on your laptop. Finishing by saying that you have learned a valuable lesson.

    don't get into any details, don't apologize for TAKING the pictures, just that he saw them.

    He is a professional, acknowledging & apologizing should go a long way.

    Oh wow I would die!!! I agree with the above ^^ This reminds me exactly why I do my best to keep nudes off my phone. I'm still guilty to an extent but one time I was drunk and passed out at a party and had pictures of me getting fucked on my camera and lets just say somebody got my phone and got them. Still waiting for the day when I see me online.

    This is an academic advisor, she may need a recommendation from him. He will have a lot more respect for her if she behaved like an adult, rather than pretending that it didn't happen, like a child.

    I would argue he would be much happier if she did pretend it never happened, especially based on how well he handled the situation itself i.e. seemed stunned and slight embarrassed before continuing on as usual. He clearly didn't want to talk about it, so bringing it up is not the approach I'd recommend. I say this as a woman with a master's degree and eight years of college under my belt, btw, and I could tell you to this day which of my advisors/professors would rather pretend nothing ever happened in that situation versus those that would expect an apology/groveling and rub it in my face all the while. I spent many years at catholic college, for the record, and my years there were almost exclusively the later type of professor. The 15 seconds of stunned silence on both sides and, I'm sure, the look on her face before the subject change and rapid escape after would make it perfectly clear it was an unintentional slip up.

    Other thing is that he's a male college professor and you are a young female student. Accusations of inappropriate conduct or advances on the part of either party get thrown around regularly, but mostly they get thrown from student to professor. That sort of situation can ruin a career. Sure, apologizing for accidentally showing him private images by mistake in an email or in person sounds like the responsible route, but it could also come back to haunt him if someone ever accuses him of harassment in the future and someone found/heard that apology. If he brings it up, you can honestly tell him your computer mistakenly opened your recently synchronized photo library over your resume file and you didn't see it before handing it to him. Otherwise, I'd leave that shit the hell alone because apologizing won't make the embarrassment you're both likely feeling go away anytime soon. Soldiering on like grown ups does that.

    I also wouldn't apologize for those photos existing, if it does come up. People take nudes and have private sex lives. It's a fact of life--an embarrassing fact of life if the wrong party sees it, but a fact of life. Pretty much everyone is a consumer of porn in some form, if not a maker themselves. Accidents happen and it gets out to people it wasn't meant for sometimes, and that incidental leak/unintentional assault on the eyes deserves an apology (again, if the topic is broached) but otherwise no apology is required for the images having been taken in the first place. Again, I went to fucking catholic college where I'd have been expelled for a photo leak like that, forget embarrassed and making apologies. In hindsight, still not sure why I went there to begin with; I'm not catholic.

    Anyway, my point is that by what I've read from OP, this might be a situation where it's better to pretend it never happened.

    That's why I keep all my content/videos on a separate computer. If not that, at least on a separate flashdrive. They should never be mixed with work stuff/school stuff. At least this is only school and after this semester you won't have to think about that again. Imagine if it was a work email.....

    LMFAO, sorry, but yeah. Plus its kind of hot. Still be glad your a girl, if the genders were reverse odds are you'd be expelled from university in a far more humiliating fashion while the women studies department makes you out to be a sex predator (or best case scenerio for a guy the prof is a cougar, but the first scenerio is more likely).

    OMGGGGG!!!! Please don't bring it up again! That is the complete wrong thing to do! Let it go, you will only make matters worse. I'm sure he will still write you a letter of recommendation if you're a good student. Bringing it up again will further embarrass both you and him!

    Could have been a lot worse, he could have asked for a copy! Leave it alone.
