embarassing

People don't always end on the most civil terms with their exes. Relationships are complicated, and they don't always end ideally. But what if things ended with the dude 8 whole years ago?! Would you still even be in touch with them? The people of Twitter reacted to the hilarious anecdote with many questions and concerns. Why didn't she ask for more money if she was already putting herself out there? Why was he still on her mind after eight years? How was she not embarrassed at all? And did they end up reconnecting afterwards even though the original poster claims they didn't? Scroll down for this week's Twitter tea. 

Everyone has their fair share of moments where they've made a total fool of themselves in public. It's only natural; we're all human, and we all make mistakes. Granted, some make more significant mistakes than others, but overall, we're somewhat in the same boat. Whether it's tripping over yourself after giving a presentation, spilling a drink all over your date, or offending someone by guessing their wrong age, whatever embarrassing thing you've done, someone has also done it before you. Either that or they've done something worse. So to make yourself feel better about your embarrassing moments, here are some from other people who wished the ground could swallow them up.

Snooping through your kid's stuff is never a good idea because you will always find something you didn't want to see. And you can't unsee something. Plus, it's not a great way to build trust. Parents on a Reddit thread shared some of the weird things they found in their kid's rooms but never told their kids they found. From the cute love letters to the awkward sex toys, it's all here. Have you ever been in a similar situation?

Life is full of awkward moments that make us wish the ground would swallow us up. We've all had them, and the reality is, we'll probably have more. But my philosophy is that you may as well laugh at your misfortunes, because how else do you recover from them? Writer Sarah Schauer has done just that. Her tweet about the time she mistakingly flashed her tattoo artist has inspired others to share their equally awkward stories of times they flashed various professionals. These accounts of people revealing a little too much flesh to their tattoo artists and doctors will make you cringe on their behalf and probably remind you of your own embarrassments, which will make you cringe some more. Or, one woman so eloquently worded it in her Tweet below, "I would have rather just passed away."

Hair is a sensitive topic for many women - whether it's a botched dye job, or a bad hair cut, having good hair can change a woman's face, boost her confidence and make her feel a whole lot better about herself. In order to give the illusion of having more of a full head of hair, some women wear hair extensions. But as good as they look on, it's always pretty awkward when they fall out in public. These women share their embarrassing mishaps when their hair extensions fell out in awkward situations and we do not envy them right now.

Social media is a great and useful tool in many ways. But It's also VERY dangerous. Here are 15 tweets about social media fails just to remind you you are not alone. Thankfully we can laugh about those fatal errors. 

I think we can all admit to being at least one of these...
