How do you deal with embarassing fuckups in public? I can't

by brushing it off

>but i cant

then there's nothing you can do.

People tend to like people who do something embarrassing in public more (unless it's something totally fucking up like jerking off to some kids)

Also people generally pay more attention to themselves. You're just some guy in the background.

Well, see, when I lay awake at night I sometimes think of cringeworthy stuff that I did 10 or 15 years ago and still shudder at it. I think that you just kind of have to learn to live with it OP.

I'm with you OP, the worst part for me is it's shit I KNOW nobody will ever remember or even know about but I still just wallow in the humility and idk what to do either.
Like one reoccuring thing I beat myself up over is this one time I accidentally turned wrong way onto the ramp coming off an interstate instead of the outer road. Literally all I did was make a uturn to leave, and nobody even saw it. It's literally shit that stupid that I freak out over.

This is pretty common. I saw it here before, and I rarely visit. Plus regret is natural.

For me, it's given me a sort of tourettes where I curse under my breath about 0-8 times a day remembering my previous (social) mistakes.

Been like that for several years but it hasn't negatively impacted me at all. Nor has it gotten worse.

In my case about half of it is stuff that the people probably don't remember, though they might.

To feel like that over something nobody who knows you saw, that would be confusing.
