Another Embarrassing Moment"Have you ever found yourself in a moment when all eyes lie upon you and your shining red face, but you can’t do anything about it? Or think about the awkward moments everyone has during a conversation. Today, I will be discussing the most embarrassing moments any human can experience throughout their lifetime. Whether these topics have applied to your life or not, you will be entertained by the numerous amounts of moments people never want to speak about. Let’s get to it. 1. Tripping up the stairs One of the most embarrassing moments anyone can go through may consist when tripping while you are walking up the stairs. I can’t tell you how many times I have been walking up the stairs in high school or even in my own house, and the slight slip of my foot would cause my heart to drop. Imagine people walking to the side of you and behind you then all the sudden, you instantly biff it. Everyone’s first reaction is to laugh. I am convinced nobody thinks, “maybe I see if that person is okay.” From the rest your walk to wherever you are going, you don’t want anyone to speak a word to you. 2. Thinking you know a stranger The second most embarrassing moment a human can go through, is waving/talking to a stranger you thought you knew. How many times have you tried waving or saying hi to your friends, but then suddenly it turns into a cringed look from a stranger? I have had this happen sadly more than once before in my lifetime. I will never forget one year I was in Florida, and I was one hundred percent convinced I saw our family friends pull into a parking spot. Silly me decides to get out of my comfort zone and beginning directing this random family I have never came across before in my life to an open parking spot. Sure enough, as the car approaches, I get a glimpse at the driver and my face became a tomato. Let’s say my family never let me live it down. 3. Walking into same direction as other person The next embarrassing moment occurs when you try walking past someone, but you accidentally walk into the same direction as the other person. You purposely try avoiding getting in their path, but they have the same mind as you making them act identical. The worst case takes place when you and this other person continuously move left to right and can’t find a way to simply pass each other. I couldn’t imagine how many times would you think a normal midwestern place would say, “ope,” during that five second span. I have learned from past experiences to walk in a straight-line showing confidence when approaching a crowd or person coming at you. There are no studies shown, but to my past experiences, ninety percent of people will slide out of your way at the last possible second to avoid creating contact. Hopefully you can use this strategy next time you find yourself in this scenario. 4. Liking an old social media post The last most embarrassing moment a person can experience in life ranking on this list occurs when you are stalking someone’s profile on social media, but you accidentally like a post from over a year ago. The instance your finger accidentally touches the screen, your heart drops from out of your body; Think of this moment happening with your crush. Disappointedly, I must admit this may have happened to me before. After you commit this shameful act, you immediately think of a way to recover. Not knowing what to do at the time, I went ahead and liked all my crushes past pictures because you can’t just like one right? There is unlimited amount of embarrassing moments people experience on the daily, but I hope you enjoyed a few on this list. I hope everyone could relate to at least one of these scenarios on this and draw a laugh from these stories. I encourage everyone to enjoy life next time an embarrassing moment happens. You might want to crawl into a hole after embarrassing yourself, but enjoy life and don’t be afraid to smile because it happens to everyone.

To Swing or Not to Swing
I recently had a couple come into session because several months ago they made the decision to change their sexual lifestyle to become “swingers.” That is they engage in sexual activity with other couples. They reported that they had decided to inform some of their friends about this lifestyle change and while most were not surprised and supportive, one friend “freaked out” and stated that they would get divorced, for sure.The couple agreed that they did not want this decision to lead to a divorce and so sought therapy to make sure they were doing everything “right.” This type of reaction signifies what much of society thinks about couples whom swing; however, research has shown a different perspective. Below are myths associated with a swinging lifestyle.1. Couples who swing must be unhappy in their relationship. Actually, quite often the opposite is true. Research shows that couples in swinging relationships are often happier in their marriage than their monogamous counterparts.2. Married couples that swing will often get divorced because it never works out. Again, the divorce rate amongst swinging couples is lower than those found in monogamous relationships. Much of this is because couples that swing often have better communication with one another and are happier in their relationship with one another.3. Couples who swing don’t have sex with one another. Couples who swing see their sexual partners as an enhancement to their primary relationship. They do not need these other partners to have sex or enjoy sex with their primary partner.4. Couples who swing must be morally corrupt. Research has shown that couples who swing are more open minded and are less racist, less sexist, and less heterosexist. Research has also shown that many couples who swing attend church and there are very few with criminal records or the like.5. Couples become swingers because one or both of them is a sex addict. This just simply is not true. While there may certainly be couples where by one of them is classified as a sex addict, this is not true in the vast majority of swinging couples.6. Couples who swing are saying that cheating is okay. Absolutely not, couples that swing have between them a set of rules that they discuss on a regular basis and change as needed. For example, both must agree to being okay with swapping partners with another couple. If one of the people in the relationship decides to sleep with the couple against their partner’s wishes, it is considered cheating. Another common rule with swinging couples is that both must be present at all times. If one of them has sex with someone that is not their primary partner and their primary partner is not present, this would be considered a violation of the rules.Swinging is not for everyone. It should never be a tool utilized as a last ditch effort to “save” a relationship. Most couples who start to swing are already in a happy relationship and are just wanting an enhancement. And the vast majority of both men and women report an increase of happiness and satisfaction in their relationship after they start swinging. The lifestyle requires being able to be completely open and honest with your partner. It requires a ton of trust and above all it requires constant communication. A situation may arise where one of the partners is not okay with what transpired and they must feel comfortable talking about what went wrong and how to fix it.The aforementioned couple that came into session had, in fact, done so much “right.” They talked about it to great lengths before they even met another couple. And they continue to talk to each other to great lengths. They have rules set in place with the knowledge that at any point one of them may pull the plug on this lifestyle and it would be okay. They absolutely love each other and their relationship comes before any other sexual relationship. Swinging is not for everyone, but those that enjoy the lifestyle are not automatically doomed to failure.
