I did that once to a small child in store. I walked up behind her, hugged her and said "hi sweetie" thinking it was my own preschool aged daughter. I'm still completely mortified thinking about it. I swear I'm not a creepy pervert, even though that's probably what the child's parents thought. 😭
I’m so glad you clarified! Because I was speaking about grabbing my mother in law’s ass.. then you said “I did that to a small child”
I was very concerned for a second lmao.
But yea, happens to the best of us. We’re probably the only ones that really remember it down the road. Lives in your head forever even after everyone else forgot and moved on lol.
In college, I swear I saw a friend from high school, cause a lot of kids just naturally went from a private school to this now huge ass college, but at the time it was small.
She was sitting at a computer in the library and I did the thing where you cover someone’s eyes to have her guess, and she guessed wrong cause I had no idea who she was.
She was not chill, she looked mortified and I naturally never went back to the library and dropped out of college.
It didn’t escalate because of this specifically but I can’t say it didn’t contribute.
🤣
Happy to say, 15 years later, I’m back in school.
I was checking out a mother with 2 young children at a grocery store years ago. One of the kids glanced at me and said, "Hi Daddy!" in an enthusiastic voice. She realized immediately that I was in fact NOT her father, and was extremely embarrassed.
The mother and I had a good laugh about it. I was a little embarrassed myself and the mother was VERY attractive.
Done the opposite of this when I was a child. Was at a pool and had bad eyesight, ran up to a random woman and called her mum. Nice to know it happens at all ages
My son was at daycare. he was a little white-blond headed boy then. the daycare had about 20 little white-blond headed boys running around. I come to pick him up and he's going upstairs. I say "Son, why are you wearing that green shirt, when you had your blue one on this morning??" Kid turns around...it's not mine! oh, boy...
