Embarrassment is part of the human experience.
And while painful while they’re happening, and while you replay them in your head right before bed, those “cringe” moments that happen to all of us can actually have a long-term benefit.
Researchers have found that people who are easily embarrassed by social cuck-ups are more likely to be liked, forgiven, and trusted than those who do not.
So, if it’s any solace, while you read the stories these poor souls share, just remember they’re probably made better for it, thus it’s OK to laugh at them.

My roommate went on a bumble date and was nervous so decided to pound shots in her car once she got to the place they were meeting and the guy was parked next to her and watched her chug vodka for 5 minutes.
Dating is rough.
