Embarassing/Awkward moments

Was at a fancy dinner party with coworkers for the holidays, so naturally I was in lolita. They all know I wear it so it's nice to be able to wear it without getting swarmed with questions. However there was also every lolitas arch nemesis at the party: fabric covered chairs. Managed to take about seven chairs out during the night knocking over many a handbag and jacket. I would have taken a petti off but I only had a useless tiny clutch with me and with valet parking getting back to the car was out of the question. I was having childhood flashbacks to playing minesweeper the entire night.

>>9484104
Oh boy. I once broke something in a store because of my petticoat (a super small porcelain trinket). Nobody noticed and I slowly walked away. Still feel embarassed about it.

I'm usually a lone lolita so I'm used to ppl commenting on my dresses
Then I meet up with another lolita from the area
>Hey I like your dress!
>Th... Oh you mean her
1000 years of shame

>>9483987
>>tfw wears lolita
>>tfw my name is actually Alice
>Sometimes I absent mindedly answer "yes?" at someone passing by saying "hey Alice" or wonder how they know my name/almost ask them then realize they meant Alice in Wonderland.
That's cute.

I wore a coord with wooden bottom shoes to class and the building it was in had hard floors and really echo-y hallways. There was no way to walk quietly. Received a lot more staring than I normally did

>>9484104
>However there was also every lolitas arch nemesis at the party: fabric covered chairs.

Can you explain please? Does the dress just get stuck on the chair? or does it slide off easy?

>>9489213
If the chairs are covered with a slippery fabric like satin the dress will just slide past, but at the event I was at (and most events I've been to) the chairs are covered with a nice cotton of some kind that instantly catch on poofy dresses.

I have a very sensitive stomach that easily gets upset by eating the wrong thing. So during the summer while I was wearing Lolita, I had some chocolate cake at a cafe with my partner and 30 minutes later I had to go to the bathroom so badly. Since this was in Manhattan, there is no public restrooms anywhere, so we rushed into kinokuniya which was the closest place that I knew had two bathrooms. I probably spent 30-45 minutes in there, and had many people knocking on the door and I could hear my partner explaining that someone was in there. Finally when my episode was done, I had to walk out past this huge line while wearing my more OTT outfits. I heard someone exclaim loudly "finally!!" as we walked away

One time I had the side zipper a good part of the way down for several hours before I finally caught on. I thought the dress was fitting a little odd, but I was fresh newbie then and in such in a rush that it didn't occur to me to check the zipper, and it wasn't so far down that the dress was sliding off. Plus my blouse was fitting normal against me so it wasn't as obvious as you might think. By the time I noticed, several pictures were taken of me (not by other lolitas, and it was a small local convention) and I was horrified. To this day, I have no idea how I missed that step. Later, I saw a photo of me, and you could tell in the photo. So much acute embarrassment

That same day I was having my period pretty heavy, and managed to get blood on my dress. I washed it out before I left the bathroom, but I was in the bathroom looking frantically at the dress in several angles in the mirror, close up etc. probably looking like a crazy person to make sure I got it all. Thankfully it was only a couple spots, and it was bodyline (and I have no intention of selling either, for anyone who may scared of dresses ever touching blood ever), but still.

That day was awful, lolita wise.

Whenever people run up to me while im in cosplay and yell some IC shit in my face and then run away.
I don't care if its teenagers but grown ass adults treating me like im IC is weird and makes me uncomfortable.

>Cosplaying as Belle from Beauty and the Beast
>Having a great time taking pictures with people, especially with little kids
>A photographer steps up, asks if he can take a couple pictures
>I pose, he snaps a few
>He thanks me then says, "You know, I always thought Belle had it wrong. She should have gotten together with Gaston. I just don't think she should have been mating with a buffalo."
>He walks away.
>mfw when I have no face.

Not super-embarrassing but last summer I was alone at a con cosplaying.
A Harley cosplayer surprised me by very loudly shouting at me from across the room that she wanted a hug. Of course I'm big enough of a sperg that I didn't really know how to respond other that stammering "okay" and making a face like pic related.
Felt embarrassed for the rest of the day whenever I saw her, I just hoped she didn't think I was disgusted or something.

Anon, how did you guys get together? Like, did he know you were into lolita to begin with? Did you just show up to dates in lolita sometimes? Sorry if it's too personal but I'm curious how this kind of thing takes shape.

>>9493837
I kind of got into lolita during the time we were together (We were together for about 2.5 years.) We mostly bonded over being geeks and he knew about my cosmetics/perfume hobby from the start. I just started wearing lolita gradually and he was basically okay with that but didn't get it.
Then again he himself was very cringy and dressed a bit weird so he didn't mind being stared at.
>everyone makes teenage mistakes, mine just happened to last longer then usual.

>>9493746
Doc martens ARE super cool. Stopped reading after you implied they aren't.

Same happened to me anon, I can't go to most eating events in Lolita which obviously are most of the meetups in nyc.
My story: I was the only Lolita at a Sakura Matsuri event in Roosevelt island. Not even any hot topic tier "Lolita cosplayers" were there and it felt pretty weird. I figured there would be a handful perhaps but nope.

i'm never wearing a "hug machine" shirt ever again

even though i wasn't cosplaying, i had a lot of people wanting to hug me. first few times it was fine, but after 2 hours EVERYONE wanted to hug me. i mean, i know the shirt says something, but you don't have to do it.

i do hate being huge breasted too, i still wanna cosplay, but my choices are limited and also i would get stopped by everyone every 2 steps

Holy fuck that made me laugh so hard. Bless you for sharing

This one was 2nd hand embarrassment for me and also a kind of "what the fuck?" moment.
I was tabling at an AA with a friend, he doesnt deal with awkward people very well being kind of awkward himself. My side of the booth is getting a little crowded and Im chatting with some customers. I can hear my friend talking to a girl on his side, I can hear in voice that she is about to start crying. Snap my attention to her because ??? what has my friend said to this poor girl. She is trembling and near tears, she is asking him where/when certain panels are. He is like "I..dont know??" she then asks him where the ppl in the booth next to us are, when will they be back and some other strange questions. He gets really annoyed and snappy "I dont know we arent affiliated with them or with the convention?? go find a staff member??" She starts crying and walks away. Everyone is just like wtf????

well obviously, you should've apologised and jumped to pay for it immediately anon - that's a whole product wasted. probably would've saved your ass too and been okay to go back.

Really not your fault the toilets were locked anon.
Good lessons in not doing shots though!

>>9493824
that's weird that they made you pay for it... they do bath bomb demos all damn day, wouldn't they just damage it off? i work in a similar type of store and t b h when people use product that isn't a tester we just damage it and call it a day.

Aye mysteriously this con just gone they were all open!

Also wasn't shots, chicken fingers that were. well not right it seems xD

>>9500518
>>9501280
Well it was my partner at the time being stupid and not noticing all the broken bits and pieces basket they use for demos. So I agreed that it was our fault and paid for it but the way the sales person was acting like it was the end of the world, started shouting at us and everything. Sure I guess they have kids that come in there and do it all the time and then need to deal with parents not paying, but we were having a nice conversation until that happened.

A girl in the nearby comm (I'm a lone lolita but decided to go to a tea party for once) discovered I commited unvoluntary homicide back in high school (and served time in juvie for it, obviously, but still)
I made sure she would keep it to herself and I wouldn't hurt her but that was embarassing to have someone know about it.

>Accidentally walked in on friends mom while she was naked and putting on clothes
>Too retarded and awkward to just say "oops wrong door"
>Instead nervously started telling her to check out my super cool cosplay that I was wearing that day because obviously that was so much less retarded than just apologising, laughing it off, and looking for the right room

It's been over 10 years and I still refuse to stay in peoples apartments overnight if they live with their parents. Makes conventions more expensive but I just try to do everything I can to forget.

>Do you also think that people getting raped are at fault if they wear a certain thing or..?
Well that escalated quickly...

No, I don't think that. All I meant was that there are plenty of people, creepers and the like, who will take advantage of such a situation and it doesn't hurt to be a little more self aware.

I bought a body pillow years ago of Asuka (I don't sleep with it though) and I had a guy stop me (we were checking out at our hotel it wasn't like I was carrying her around the con) and talked to me for like 5 minutes about how Rei is superior to Asuka. Super weird because I really like both of the characters, just prefer Asuka a little bit more. Why can't we all just get along?

>>9512537
Oh, I see. Fair enough.

>>9512522
As I said previously, I am not "psycho".
A girl in high school (along with other ones,but this one had a special kind of hate for me) merely started bullying and harassing me both for dressing weird and because her mother probably didn't love her enough which caused her to be insecure to the point of bothering and humiliating me as much as she could.
Let's just say that one day I had enough and during a fight (she started,obviously), I fighted back harder than I should, hitting her on the head with a small statue from the classroom. Which instantly killed her.
I don't really feel bad over it in all honesty. I didn't mean to hit so hard but it's her fault to begin with. After that, some people were scared of me.

But I did voluntarily tried to kill one of the girls from high school by poisoning her food but she (unfortunately? fortunately?) just got really sick on that day, nothing more.

I also apologize for my english, it not being my first language. I rather not tell where I am from to avoid people finding things about me. I now live clean from my past with my soon to be husband. But it's embarassing when people bring back things you did in high school.

>>9512615
