“I’m Sorry, I’m Married”: 30 Times People Misread Social Cues And Created Legendary Cringe

I was in a store with my husband and i was looking for a perfume. I accidentally hurt a woman with my purse, said sorry to her and told her “sorry i didn’t see you”. She replied “Don’t mind. Me too.” She was blind 😭

Knew someone who had cancer, they were talking to me about a big procedure and I was listening intently, nodding and giving responses. I even said "thank you so much for telling me it means a lot that you'd talk to me about something like this". ... They were on the phone with someone else! It went on for five minutes before I realized.

Art class…there was this girl next to me drawing a full body OC and I said “I love your body!” she said “thank you- wait what?”

Instead of saying 'madam' to a client, I called her 'mommy' 😭💀

I was at prom and I saw my senior friend and her bf sitting on a bench outside. So I walk over and I say "well if it isn't my favorite couple" little did I realize her bf had literal tears streaming down his face. They were breaking up.

One time I went on a hike with my boyfriend and his family like 2 months into dating (and this was the first weekend I got to meet them bc they live halfway across the country) and his grandmother had [passed away] that year and they had this little Tupperware with them and the mom (whose mom was the one who passed away) had pulled it out and I forget why I thought it was relevant (I think they wanted to buy some taffy earlier in the way while we were shopping around) but I went "oh is that taffy?" And then was told no -it was in fact some of her mothers ashes and then they spread them in a beautiful spot on the hike and cried together and it was so sweet and I was mortified.

Thankfully my bf and his dad thought it was funny and no one was truly offended bc I wasn't told prior that this was happening at all but I wanted to [disappear] in that moment.

When I started working at Chick-fil-a, I was learning to say "my pleasure" instead of "you're welcome". I once told a guest "you're my pleasure."

Hugged the CEO of my company cuz I thought he was giving the signal for the Handshake-to-hug. He was not.

A patient of mine was getting deployed for the military a few days after their visit. As they were leaving I said "good luck with deportation."

At college my friend invited me to sit with him and his friends while we were getting food and before we sat down. I went to a random group of girls thinking that was the table and that he just hadn't sat down yet. I started chatting and I asked them if they knew my friend and they were like "um no, why?" And then I realized I just barged in on their friend group.
