People Share the Worst Thing They’ve Ever Done in Their Lives

We all have some bad secrets.

Those skeletons in our closets that we’re ashamed of and that we look back on and think…”what the hell was I doing?”

I’m talking about the messed-up stuff we’ve done in our pasts…

And we’re about to get some pretty interesting confessions from total strangers.

Here’s what folks on AskReddit had to say.

1. Shady

“I worked at a super shady telemarketing company right after high school. They made people think they were a charity but they weren’t.

They sold stuff supposedly assembled by handicapped people and I talked in a voice that led people to believe I was mentally handicapped so they would feel bad and buy from me.

I’ve never hated myself more and I deserved to have my *ss kicked.”

2. Sorry about that.

“P*ssed myself at a friend’s house.

Then his parents had to replace the carpet.”

3. Blasphemy!

“I stole some Mother Theresa cards from our church and convinced my little cousin to go with me door to door selling them saying we were trying to raise money for the less fortunate.

We then used that money to go buy snacks at 7-11.

I was 12 and to this day I randomly wake up wondering wtf was I thinking. Doesn’t sound like it’s the most f*cked up thing ever but it did stick with me.”

4. Prank call.

“A long time ago when dinosaurs roamed the earth and you could make prank phone calls, my friends and I called a random number.

A woman answered and in a small child’s voice I asked her if she knew where my parents were. I must have gone on for at least 5 minutes, asking for my parents, got all upset, the whole 9 yards. At the end I said I had to go and hung up on her.

To this day that poor woman has no idea what happened to that little girl.”

5. Wow!

“Broke my own arm on purpose and accidentally scheduled my surgery on Mother’s Day.”

6. That’s not nice.

“My first year of college, there was a really annoying guy in my class.

He was a total douche. One day he left class and my buddy and I saw that he left his book on the desk. We took it. Sold it to the bookstore and got burgers with the money.

I helped him look for his lost book the next day for an hour.”

7. Sorry about that.

“I had a gay friend that i knew before i started working with him. He had worked there for a few years.

I didn’t know he had told them he was married. I accidentally outed him.”

8. Don’t say that out loud.

“I told my mum she should have ab*rted me.

I meant it too, but maybe I could’ve kept it to myself.”

9. Ouch.

“We had a fight with the other neighborhoods kids, we cornered three of them with sticks and I threw a sharpened stick straight into his face.

I almost blinded him and he he had a big wound on his forehead. It was a very very very dumb impulsive move on my part.”

10. Collect call.

“I prank called a random number using a 1-800 ATT and a woman accepted the call with me only saying “I am in jail” instead of using a name.

The lady got hysterical after she accepted the call thinking it was her son so she went along with it and not thinking twice about my tone of voice.

I even threw my voice off pretending to be the detective after finding out the son’s name from her. I told he was arrested for touching a minor. She said she was on her way down to the jail house”

11. Nice work!

“I had a threesome with two married men in the bathroom of a local dive bar.”

12. Classy.

“My friend and I played “poo dollar “one Saturday evening on campus in college. Now the traditional way of playing poo dollar is to simply put a piece of poo, and smush it into a crumbled up dollar bill, and when someone finds it in excitement, they get poo on their hands. It’s evil already by itself.

However, a 3rd wanted to join in on the fun, and he’s a huge Star Wars fan. He had a huge wad of fake $10 dollar bills with Jar Jar Binks’ face on it. He won them as a kid at Chuck E Cheese. He said each bill was 5 tickets each, and bought a wad with the 100 tickets he won.

He told himself as a kid that these would come in handy one day. Now mind you, these looked IDENTICAL to a $10 bill, except substitute good ol’ Alex Hamilton for Jar Jar f*cking Binks.

So this means that people would pick up this seemingly fake $10 bill in excitement, find poo on their hands, but find consolation in that it’s still a $10 bill. But nope, we even took the consolation away.

It was a fake Jar Jar Binks $10 bill AND you have poo on your hands.”

13. Bad days.

“When I was drinking I cashed my parents federal tax return check because I was broke and going through withdrawals.

I felt absolutely horrible once it was cashed and it never left me. Luckily I got sober about 2 years after that event and came clean to my parents about what I had done.

They said they had an idea it was me.”

14. Jacket = Ruined.

“When I was a kid a friend of mine came over for pizza and left.

I was upset that he didn’t stay to hang out. Heard something at my window and it was him getting my attention asking if he could have the leftover marinara sauce. I said sure, slightly opened the little marinara container and tossed it to him.

He had on a brand new Tommy Hilfiger winter jacket.”

Now it’s your turn!

In the comments, tell us the most screwed-up thing you’ve ever done in your life.

Let’s see what you got!

Check Out These Disaster Meals That Colleges Are Giving Their Students in Quarantine

Dorm food. Nothing compares to you. Though I wish I could have my youth again, I certainly don’t miss lukewarm chicken cutlet sandwiches and soggy caesar salads.

With the back-to-school season kicking into high gear again, some colleges are housing their students in a 2-week quarantine prior to the start of classes. The food they’re giving them… is next level gross.

Here are some disaster meals that colleges are serving their quarantined students.

According to this NYU student, this was the first meal of the day was a watermelon and chicken salad – served at a bright and early 6pm. The entree came complete with a rice krispie treat, an unripe orange, and – peanut butter?

@bootysnail

They did not give me breakfast ? this was the first meal of the day #NYU #college #quarantine #covid #nyc #usa #uni #RockinCollege #food #fyp

♬ pour me up – badgalnini

It’s totally beyond me how that could even remotely be considered a substantial meal, let alone the first one of the day. Keep in mind, many of these students are still paying full tuition plus room and board while waiting for their quarantine to end and for classes to begin. If you’re at NYU, that means you’re shelling out at least $76,614 for the school year. With a price tag like that, you’d think that these students would be served meal like they’re having lunch at Jean Georges or breakfast at the Ritz Carlton. Unfortunately, that is far from the reality.

Take a look at NYU striking out again. This isn’t even a meal – it’s a vague assortment of small snacks.

@taratarasauce

CAN I PLEASE HAVE ONE (1) SUBSTANTIAL MEAL

♬ This turned into a trend I dont know how (Shakira- Hips Don’t Lie) – Ren Forest Roger

NYU isn’t the only college seriously dropping the ball when it comes to actually feeding its students. At University of Georgia, students are paying the full $2,000 for the semester’s meal plan. Here’s what they’re getting.

@willtv.__

I shouldn’t pay all this money to get an elementary school vibe #uga #mealplan #fyp #georgia #covid

That cafeteria looks more like a Great Depression Era food bank than a college dining hall. With COVID-19 delaying transportation, shipping, and most forms of human interaction, there could be a food crisis poised to strike students all across the US as their colleges attempt to resume some combination of in-person and online classes.

Think about it. Every student must quarantine themselves for at least two weeks whenever they are returning to campus after being in another state or area. That means after every summer, Thanksgiving, winter, and spring break, there will have to be a massive school-wide quarantine.

At NYU, there’s an average NYC-campus enrollment of just under 27,000, with 44% of those students living on campus. That means over 11,000 students have to quarantine themselves at once. Imagine 11,000 people who are totally reliant on one dining service – all at the same time.

If things keep going the way they are, it won’t be a pretty sight.

Here’s another UGA meal. On the bright side, a wet burger bun makes for the perfect petri dish.

Let’s be real. COVID-19 is intense. We’re likely experiencing one of the most difficult periods of history in the last century. Surely, though, there must be a better way than this.

Do you know any college students who have gotten served disaster meals during COVID?

Real Things That Totally Look Like Glitches in the Universe

Sometimes, you see something that just doesn’t make sense. Instead of trying to rationalize the irrational, it’s often better to just accept things as they are and roll with them.

There are abnormalities in our realities that we cannot even begin to understand – like UFOs and people who still wear Ed Hardy t-shirts.

Here are 14 things in real life that seem like glitches in the universe.

1. You’ve heard of upside down cakes, now here’s…

An upside down house. At least I can finally fulfill my Alice in Wonderland fantasy.

This upside-down house. from mildlyinteresting

2. A real biological phenomenon

Take a look at this super rare albino sea turtle. Animals really are out of this world.

An albino turlte I saw on my vacation in Sri Lanka from mildlyinteresting

3. From a bygone era

Here’s a grocery store that used to be a theatre – for those of us who love sad, dystopian nostalgia.

4. Well, I guess everybody does it

Feel like an actual alien in this London restaurant’s space-themed bathroom, complete with a flying saucer and toilet pods.

These “toilet pods” are the restroom at a London restaurant from mildlyinteresting

5. In all shapes and sizes

This little door in the woods is perfect for any talking dormice looking for prime real estate.

This tree has a tiny door built into it. from mildlyinteresting

6. That’s a lot of power

I guess a giant outlet must be useful for something.

This power company has a giant plug and socket on it from mildlyinteresting

7. A true hybrid

Which recycling bin are you supposed to put this in?

This sparkling water is in a plastic bottle with an aluminum top from mildlyinteresting

8. I think I’ll pass

Nature, you’re beautiful – but you’re also seriously terrifying. This looks like my candy-coated nightmare.

9. They’re real!

Only 0.0000005% of lobsters are blue. This jewel-toned crustacean was caught in Nova Scotia and promptly put back into the ocean.

Blue lobster caught in St. George’s Bay, Nova Scotia from mildlyinteresting

10. In a world where the 50’s never ended

This looks like something out of the Bioshock universe.

Buffalo wing soda. from mildlyinteresting

11. A multi-purpose business

If only the car wash this drive-thru is in was still functioning – then we could really knock out two birds with one stone.

This fast food drive thru used to be a car wash. from mildlyinteresting

12. Could you say that again?

These signs are in a Coast Salish language, native to the indigenous folks of the Pacific Northwest.

13. Speed racing in Antarctica

This tunnel in Norway makes you feel like you’re driving through giant glacier.

This roundabout in the middle of a long tunnel in Norway. from mildlyinteresting

14. It’s a pretty patty!

Don’t get it twisted – this burger’s designer.

If that last one is blue raspberry flavored, I’m totally down. Still not totally sold on the buffalo wing-flavored soda.

What do you think of these real life glitches in the universe? Are they amazing or totally off-putting?

Predictions From ‘The Simpsons’ That Actually Came True

Who needs astrology when you can rely on The Simpsons?

The 31 season-strong animated sitcom has accurately predicted the future so many times, that we might as well call Matt Groening an oracle. Still, it’s no less shocking when an old episode from the 90’s ends up manifesting irl in 2020.

Here are 12 times that The Simpsons ended up predicting the future – for like the thousandth time.

1. We all know this one

You know how Donald Trump is president? Yeah, The Simpsons saw that one coming from like a mile away.

Also… LOOK AT THAT CAMPAIGN SIGN!!! That’s almost the damn font!

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

2. JCPenney’s bankruptcy

This episode predicted JCPenney going out of business 14 years ago. JCPenney filed for bankruptcy in 2020.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

3. Lady Gaga flying in the air

Gaga and Simpsons writers were on the save wavelength here. This episode and the pop legend’s Superbowl performance have strikingly similar choreography.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

4. Well, that’s depressing

The Amazon’s been disappearing for a while, but this one hits different after the 2019 wildfires.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

5. Now that’s what I call electoral fraud

The Simpsons was way ahead of the game when it came to 2016’s election hacking debacle.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

6. This mutant fish

This 1990 episode accurately shows some of the scariest effects of climate change. Three-eyed fish have since been found in a reservoir near a power plant in Argentina.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

7. Tiger attack

These two big cat trainers based on the duo Siegfried and Roy were attacked by their tigers, which is exactly what happened in 2003.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

8. Greece’s economic collapse

This joke that aired in 2013 wasn’t too far-fetched, considering Greece defaulted on its debt only two years later.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

9. The smart watch

The prototype here looks pretty crazy, but it’s become pretty standard to have phone on your wrist nowadays.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

10. Disney’s acquisitions

This episode from 1998 had a punchline that was a long time coming. Disney finally bought Fox Studios in 2019.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

11. Ebola

Only Coronavirus could make this joke more triggering.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

12. The Game of Thrones finale

Talk about a premonition. Maybe GoT fans wouldn’t have been caught off guard by Daenerys’ 360-degree turn if they’d gotten a sneak peek in this Simpsons episode.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

Is it socially acceptable to just start treating The Simpsons like the news? At this point, I feel like it’s an accurate source of information.

Memes to Tickle Your Trolling Pleasures

As much as we like rolling our eyes and calling out trolls, we also really enjoy being trolls on occasion.

People Share the Most Messed-Up Things They’ve Ever Done in Their Lives

It’s confession time…

No, not from me! Ha!

I’m talking from all of these people who are about to admit the most screwed-up things that they’ve ever done in their lives.

And I think we’re in for some real interesting stories, my friends…

AskReddit users share the most messed-up things they’ve ever done.

1. Ashamed.

“In college there was a guy who was a real *sshole to me.

I avoided conflict at all costs but I went to a party at his apartment and he had all of his sports trophies on display. I stole one came home and burned it in the fire place.

Later that year he ran for faculty rep and nobody ran against him. The ballot had 2 options his name and “no representative”. I had a lot of friends at the time and I convinced enough people to vote to have no representation.

So he lost to nobody and we didn’t have a rep for our faculty for the first time in our 90+ year history. I was pleased at the time and now I am ashamed.”

2. No defense.

“Dropped an N bomb in a non joking way in front of a black friend of mine.

I was drunk, and in company of guys who I knew were low key racist. Trying to be edgy, etc.

Was like 10 years ago and it still haunts my thoughts on a weekly basis. I hate to think that I’m part of what he thinks about when he reflects on times he’s experienced racism.

But there’s really no defense for what I did.”

3. For what?

“Took a sh*t on a random person’s car in a mall parking lot, then wiped it over the windshield and doors with paper towels.”

4. That’s kind of funny.

“I was performing a dance routine on stage in a theatre in my home town with a dance school. I’m maybe 8 or 9. A painfully anxious introverted extrovert.

It was my first night and I had only been in the dance class a few weeks and I was really, really nervous.

So we are there standing back to back, arms crossed, me and this other girl. I can hear the que, the curtain is about to go up and she says to me “don’t you mess this up and embarrass me, my family are here tonight”.

Curtain goes up. I slide my foot back and trip her. She falls, flat out. On stage. In front of her family.

And I’m still not sorry…”

5. Didn’t go over well.

“Dumped a girl I had been dating for about 6 months b/c when I met her older sister I realized I liked her more, we (My gf & I) even joked about how she (sis) & I had more in common.

So I took her up on it, said I don’t want to see you anymore, I want to date your sister.

Did not go over well.”

6. Brutal.

“When I was about 8 years old, one of friend’s parents paid me $200 to break their kid’s leg so that they could get him to stop playing soccer.

So I convinced him to climb a tree with me and got him to go out to a branch that could support me, but not him.

About 5 minutes later he’s got a broken leg and I’ve got $200.”

7. Hope you learned a lesson.

“As a kid I mimicked the limp of a old war veteran who was injured fighting for our country.

He caught me and I never felt so f*cked up.”

8. Ruthless.

“I’m a military veteran so any conversation about the absolute worst thing I’ve done could get overly complicated pretty quickly – but honestly the period I feel the most guilt about would be right after I got out of the Army.

I’d been in an all-male max-testosterone environment for 4 years, and suddenly I was a college student, surrounded by freshman girls who were away from home and parents for the first time. I was several years older, vastly more experienced, and still carrying a military mindset. I was very mission and goal-oriented, and not very interested in consequences.

I really used a lot of people. I never hurt anyone, but I was manipulative, deceptive and ruthless, and I was careless with the feelings of girls who deserved better.”

9. Uh oh.

“After my buddy graduated high school he got a bunch of wallet size photos of his senior photo.

He disappeared and we hadn’t seen him for a while or heard from him so me and a mutual friend decided it be funny if we wrote brutal phrases on the back of them and distribute them in the mailboxes around the neighborhood.

We wrote phrases like “I won’t tell your wife” and “till next time <3” and the simple but popular “I love you”We thought it was hysterical at the time.

Unfortunately the police ended up tracking him down and asking him about it. Looking back that’s pretty messed up.”

10. Your family can’t know.

“I have had s*x with escorts.

Not too bad, but my family wouldn’t approve. I and they were clean and practiced safe s*x. I don’t regret it, especially as I learned how to be more confident around women and bedroom activities.

But I know plenty of people who’d lord it over me. I really did just want to know what it was like to experience s*xual intercourse.

But yet I feel it’s a curse if I did do it or never did.”

11. Poor bird.

“I got a parakeet as a Christmas gift when I was 15.

Come April I have a new boyfriend I’m completely enamored by. So now I spend all my time with him completely forgetting to spend time with my bird. His squawking starts to annoy us so I move him next door to the empty room.

Couple days go by and I remember to check on him and he’s dead at the bottom of the cage. I starved him to death because I was hung up on my boyfriend. We’re married now 10 years later so there’s that but I still feel awful.

And my husband likes to remind me anytime animals come up in conversation. R.I.P. Frankie.”

12. Smashing pumpkins.

“When I was a teenager, we really enjoyed destroying property. So pumpkin smashing during Halloween was always like Christmas for a group of mischievous teens.

There was a family that had a whole bunch of pumpkins on a sheet, right on the curb. Probably 20 of them. Nice neighborhood, but I think they were selling them. Had a little girl that out front with them during the day.

They left them out of after dark.

I pulled up, got out and loaded every single pumpkin into the back seat of my car. Smashed them all over town. I admit, I do look back with some regret, thinking about that little girl coming outside to see an empty sheet the next day.”

13. What was I thinking?

“After college, I went drinking with some friends, and after the bars closed, we walked into a house party.

The owner didn’t like the jersey I was wearing and told me to leave. He followed me outside with his roommates and talked a bunch a trash. I walked home, waited about an hour, then walked back and keyed two of the cars bumper to bumper.

Like, what was I thinking? I’ve never done anything like that…”

14. Terrible.

“I had a huge argument with my mother during high school and one of the outside cats who gave birth had kittens and I threw one of them at the wall out of anger and frustration and the kitten eventually died.

I hate myself for that every single day. I feel so bad and I just can’t believe I did that. Whenever I attempt suicide due to depression, that memory and guilt of killing a helpless little kitten pushes me to almost kill myself the most. I can never forgive myself for doing what I did.

I’ve never told anyone in real life and my mother is the only one who knows I did that (because she witnessed it).”

15. NEVER DO THIS, PEOPLE.

“When I was a young teen, a friend and I liked to steal stop signs. We stole I don’t know how many, it was a lot though.

Well, we stole a sign, and not a day later a car crash happened because someone didn’t stop. No one died, but there were injuries.

I guess that came back to bite us in the *ss as that summer we worked for the city. What did we do? Replace the stop signs.”

How about you?

What’s the worst thing you think you’ve ever done?

Tell us all about in the comments!

We won’t judge you…too much…

People Share Secrets They Have That They Can Only Tell Complete Strangers

It must eat a person up inside if they have secrets that they can’t tell their friends, parents, siblings, cousins, or other people who are close to them.

But, I guess everyone has their own personal feelings about who they can trust and who is on a “need to know” basis when it comes to personal information.

But we’re about to hear some very intimate information from people who are only comfortable telling their secrets to strangers.

Let’s dive into some deep secrets with folks on AskReddit who haven’t even told the people in their lives these stories.

1. Not happy.

“I obsess about being able to start life over, in another time.

To the point where I feel this life is not worth bothering about.”

2. Drunk on TV.

“There is a video of me being interviewed by Tulsa Channel 9 news where I’m drunk.

I was wearing a beer soaked crop top tank top OK State shirt being asked about my opinion on beer being sold in Boone Pickens Stadium….not my finest moment.”

3. Ha! That’s good!

“About 10 yrs ago, I stole my bully’s phone and threw it off a building.

He still doesn’t know what happened to his phone.”

4. Host family.

“When I was with my host family it was honestly the only year of my life I’ve felt like a part of a family.

I miss them so much.”

5. Not a huge fan.

“I kind of dislike my best friend.

We’ve known each other a long time, and we’re both in unfortunate circumstances, but I’m trying to change mine. He isn’t trying to change his, he just rages about how unfair his life is.

I’ve offered all the help I can, but he never takes me up on it, and being his shoulder to cry on can be exhausting. He can be a very negative person, and so can I, but I’m trying to be less so, but it’s easy to slip back into negativity when I’m around him.

It’s all very frustrating sometimes.”

6. Looking to get sick.

“I feel relieved whenever I get sick.

I have major depression and anxiety problems, and being physically ill is just something people understand better.

I don’t know how to explain it.”

7. Lonely.

“Just how lonely I am. Of course, no one wants to hear it, they blow smoke up your *ss or repeat catchy phrases.

I have no friends or anyone I talk to outside of coworkers.

I had a bad breakup last year and pretty much no luck since.”

8. Awful.

“My mother’s last words as she lay dying in our house were ‘I’m scared’.

This has messed me up, bad.

And I can’t tell anyone I know because I don’t want to mess them up, too.”

9. Depressed.

“That I honestly don’t enjoy life that much anymore.

I eat well, I exercise, I do everything that people say to do if you’re depressed. It ain’t been helping, and anytime i bring it up with someone, they just talk about how good i seem to have it.

Makes talking to my girlfriend or my friends really hard, because I seem so upbeat, but honestly there are a lot of days where I’d rather just wake up and go back to sleep.”

10. Sad.

“That I am horribly lonely and depressed.

I have social anxiety and am an introvert, so meeting people is difficult.

Hating myself doesn’t help any, and I wish I would just die, but unfortunately I’m too much of a chicken to do anything about that last part.”

11. Not for everyone.

“I don’t want to be in a relationship right now because I finally have a chance to figure out who I am as a person, on my own.

As soon as I start seeing someone, that’s over. Then I have to deal with someone else’s feelings, wants and needs alongside my own. I’m 26 and I finally have this chance…

And I’m d*mned if I’m going to waste it.”

12. Online cheating.

“My wife of 13 years is cheating on me.

She hasn’t physically had s*x with anyone, or met for that matter, but she is chatting with men online. I gained access to her email, Facebook, phone, etc without her knowing.

Here’s the kicker….I don’t want to tell her I know because our s*x life is now through the f*cking roof. We went from 1-2 times a month to now 4-5 times per week. Also, some of the “men” she’s talking to online, well…she’s actually talking to me.

I found out she’s on Tinder, so I made a fake Tinder account and we matched. Been talking to her for a few weeks. Asking her all sorts of crazy sh*t she’s done, etc.

I also made a Craigslist ad through activity partners and she responded to it.”

13. Deep down…

“Deep down I feel like I don’t really want or need any friends.

It’s not that I don’t like the friends I have or have horrible friends, they’re all solid relationships. But sometimes I go a week or two without answering my messages and realise that I don’t actually enjoy speaking to anyone or having regular contact.

I hate the pressure of replying to messages or speaking to people about their lives which is INCREDIBLY selfish of me, and I feel as though the only real emotional attachment I have to anyone is my mother, brother, sister and my SO.

I feel burdened by any other form of emotional investment but what kind of f*cking b*tch would I be to just cut off every single one of my friends for no other reason than “I just don’t care that much”.

I also don’t understand why I feel like this because like I said they’re strong friendships, some of which I’ve had for at least 10 years. For reference I’m 27.”

Now we’d like to hear from you.

If you’re comfortable, share some secrets with us that you’ve never told anyone close to you.

We look forward to hearing from you!

All of us have secrets.

Some are dark, some are embarrassing, and some are so personal that we can’t even fathom telling them to the people we are closest to in life.

I’m not saying that’s a good or a bad thing, it’s just the way it is.

So, what’s a secret you can only share with online strangers?

Here’s what AskReddit users had to say.

1. Wow.

“Sometimes when my medical issues are acting up I can’t even remember my husband’s name.

I know who he is but it’s like the data is corrupted and my brain is returning ‘unknown error’ instead of ‘name’.”

2. Hang in there.

“Don’t know how I’m going to survive now without stepdad.

Died Saturday.

Things just hurt so much.”

3. This is terrible.

“My mother was afraid of death.

On the day she died, five different doctors told me there was no hope (and there wasn’t). They also told me she couldn’t be aware of what’s going on.

She was. She would open her eyes when she heard me. I asked her several times if she wanted off the vent, and she’d nod. I’d clarify that this would mean it was her time to go, and she wouldn’t answer any way.

After several hours of watching a team off nurses work on her while she was circling the drain, I gave the consent.

Her last action was one of fear. I am fully convinced that she was completely aware of what was happening for at least 15 seconds (even with a large morphine dose). She grasped at me with her hands as though she were trying to cling to life.

I’ve had many nightmares about it.”

4. No more relationships?

“Since my divorce, I don’t really want a relationship.

I date some and keep it casual and had one “actual” girlfriend for 3 months and it was pure hell. My family doesn’t get it, but I really like doing the dad and kids thing.

I went to counseling in case it was some carryover issues from my marriage, but it seems I just like being on my own.

I’m scared that won’t change long-term, I don’t want to end up alone after my kids grow out of the home…but I just can’t get onboard to doing the relationship bit and don’t see that changing anytime soon.”

5. No excitement.

“I’m afraid I don’t know how to get excited about stuff anymore. I can’t really tell my friends or family.

My friends know me as a perpetually happy girl, all smiles and jokes, always there for them when they need support. My family are nice, but will just not be able to help. Nothing is bringing me joy anymore, and I feel like I am steadily losing touch with the world around me.

I try to pursue my hobbies, and I just feel nothing from them anymore. Nothing grabs me and enthralls me with passion anymore. I don’t get excited to game, to read, to lock pick, or even to get out of bed.

I just don’t feel any point in any of it anymore, and there’s no one to tell and nothing to really do about it.”

6. Intense.

“I introduced my friend to the medication I’m pretty sure ultimately killed her, but we have no proof.”

7. At least you’re honest.

“I LOVE the impact the pandemic is having.

I’m sad that people are dying, but as someone who was working myself to the bone or commuting to work being forced to stop everything and spend all my time at home gave me so much more time with my family and doing what I enjoy.

Unemployment is enough that I can survive so suddenly I am financially ok, but without a lot of suffering. I am absolutely dreading having to go back and don’t think I can without dealing with serious impact to my well-being.”

8. A survivor.

“Never told my parents that I had Stage One cancer.

Both were barely sober and would have jumped off the wagon head-first.

The bright side is, the doctor got it all.”

9. Keep moving forward.

“I’m pretty confident that I’m going to die alone and potentially young.

It’s making it hard for me to care about planning for anything in the long-term.”

10. Prison.

“I was s*xually assaulted a few years ago, in prison serving time for a non-violent drug offense.

I’m a guy. I was assaulted by a guy. Maybe r*pe is the proper classification for what transpired.

I have never, and I don’t know that I could ever tell anyone about it.”

11. OH MY GOD.

“I’ve talked my experience before but I was a victim of accidental cannibalism (which means I have eaten human).

The incident involves what I assume was some cartel trying to get rid of bodies by cooking them and serving as food for people to buy. Sweeney Todd style.

I used to love that food until the news came out. Now I have this really incredible story I can’t share with anyone because it’s f*cked up.

And even if I share it who is going to believe it?”

12. Ahhh, don’t worry about it.

“I’m a ‘normal’, educated, successful guy that sometimes like to wear women’s clothes.”

13. Scandalous!

“My sister-in-law’s sister and I hooked up at her bachelorette party. That’s my brother’s wife’s sister if you’re confused.

I’m also a woman so it’s a bit more of a scandal than your usual wedding shenanigans.”

14. Dad.

“My dad had two massive strokes 4 years ago.

He was hospitalized and went through alot of physical and psychological training over the following year. However a large part of his brain had “died”, so he had the mind of a 5 year old.

I still loved him and visited him in the rehabilitation clinic (like a nursing home, but better suited), as often as I could. Every visit was hard, because he wasn’t the same anymore – he often only focused on eating candy, or be annoyed about stuff he felt he was missing (like a new watch or similar).

One day the staff called me, and said that I needed to get some prescription pills, because they didn’t get the delivery from the pharmacy. I had a meeting one hour later, so I got the pills and drove as fast as I could to them.

When I got there, they asked if I wanted to talk to him. “I can’t, I don’t have the time right now. I’ll talk to him tomorrow when I get here”. I think he saw me from his window, as I drove off again.

That night he died.

To this day, I blame myself for not talking to him for just 5 minutes. I was stressed, and I knew it would just be random weird stuff. I don’t know, if he was saddened that I had left, and then just gave up. I’d give anything to get him back.

I can’t tell my mom or sister this. They’d be devastated.”

People Talk About Really Nice Things That Folks Have Done for Them

Have you ever had someone do something nice for you that you remembered forever?

It’s a great feeling to make someone’s days, and it’s also great when you’re on the receiving end of that generosity.

So let’s get wholesome, shall we?

AskReddit users shared their stories about the nicest thing someone has ever done for them.

1. At the movies.

“I took my sister whose in a wheelchair to the cinema for the first time on my own. At the end, I realized I could’t undo the brakes, because it was a new wheelchair, and was blocking everyone.

I felt like crying because I thought everyone was p*ssed at me, but some nice lady helped me, then took me and my sister out. She said she once had a son who needed a wheelchair.

This was long ago but I’ll never forget.”

2. Saved from a creep.

“I was at a bar/restaurant in Boston by myself on a Friday night. It was 7pm, so just enjoying a nice dinner by myself before heading back to my hotel. There was a man – with a wedding ring on -who asked me if the seats next to me were taken, I told him no and him and his friends sat down.

He eventually started chatting with me and it was friendly, but then he started hitting on me. I brushed him off he slightly backed off and then started eating French fries off of my plate.

I pushed the plate away and ask the bartender for my check. I was in the last seat at the bar so I had no where to go other than to wait and the bar was packed. The guy tells me I’m beautiful and asks if I want to go back to my hotel with him, I told him No.

He asked again, I told him I was married and he said “so? So am I.” All of the sudden this voice says to me “Oh my god! What are you doing here? I haven’t seen you in so long!” And a woman hugged me.

This woman and I chatted and pretended we were old friends while I paid, she then walked with me to my Uber to make sure I got into it safely and that he didn’t follow me. I don’t know where this woman is now – but she made me feel safe.”

3. Homeless.

“My ex and I were homeless, living in a tent about 50ft off the train tracks in our city and had been living that way for quite a while. It was a constant struggle to dig ourselves out of our rut. When I found out I was pregnant 6 weeks earlier, we worked even harder to get out of that situation.

He eventually found stable work, and I continued applying for housing help during the day as my pregnancy was extremely high risk and I couldn’t work.

One evening a cop came out to trespass us from the spot we were camping at. We explained we needed just two weeks to get a paycheck for a motel and we would be out of there and begged him to give us more time.

He couldn’t do that, but instead of sending us packing, he left my husband at the campsite to pack up and took me to the nearby motel that sat on a central bus line. Out of his own pocket, he paid for the forst month of our stay at that motel, and gave us a little bit extra for personal necessities.

I’ll never, ever, forget his kindness. It, literally, changed our entire lives and eventually led to us finding an apartment we could afford on our own before we eventually went our separate ways to our current co-parenting relationship.”

4. That was close.

“Almost got hit by a fast moving car. A kind officer got me out the way.

He told me his name was David. Thanks, David. I will always remember you.”

5. Flat tire.

“I got my first flat tire last summer and my car didn’t have a spare.

I was stuck at a gas station waiting for my boyfriend to drive the half hour to me so I could go buy a new one. Some stranger with the same car as mine stopped and offered me his spare since he was getting a new car.

It saved my broke college self from having to spend $100 on a new tire and another person helped us put it back on!”

6. Foot problems.

“I was born with ridiculously short Achilles’ tendons.

By the age of 8, I was being bullied for how I walked on the balls of my feet. I was sent to a surgeon who said he could cut the tendons, but he didn’t want to do that. He said my feet would flop around for life. He suggested leg braces and ballet to stretch the tendons.

My parents immediately found a local dance studio. I hated the leg braces but loved dance. I worked really hard. Within 4 years I was put en pointe and earned a spot as a Jr. member of a ballet company. We were living on a very tight budget, yet somehow they always managed to pay for all of my classes for years.

I now proudly have a BA in Dance. My tuition was paid for in Grants and Scholarships. My parents changed my life by putting me in Ballet and Theatre. I still have short Achilles’ tendons, but not nearly as severe. That was the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me.

I’m still a dancer 41 years later from that first class.”

7. A helping hand.

“There is this married couple that really helped us when we were in a bad situation.

We were essentially homeless (living in a crappy motel) they sent my kids to summer camp, helped me get my car back on the road, brought us food and school supplies for the kids. When we were lucky enough to find a house we could afford, with our tax return as the down payment, they brought their truck to help me pick up the used appliances I bought and helped set them up.

I don’t talk to them nearly enough, I need to message them now.”

8. Money was tight.

“In 8th grade my parents were separated and money was a huge issue. At school there was this bully who we will call Micheal. Micheal would pick on my every day and he would always make fun of the way I dressed or what I brought for lunch. (We didn’t have much so I didn’t eat a lot)

At one point my family couldn’t afford to send me to school with money and I had to start eating bag lunches at school. (They were for the kids who couldn’t buy lunch. It was an apple and a turkey sandwich and a milk.) Micheal noticed this and quit making fun of what i ate and wore.

After a week or so I started finding a $20 bill stuck in my locker every week. I started to wonder who it was and I got to school early to find micheal putting the money in my locker. I confronted him about it and he said he realized I had a lot going on at home and even though he hated me, he still wanted to see me eat.

Me and him have been friends ever since.”

9. A very hard time.

“When my daughter passed away at 3 months old, my husband and I were really poor and struggling and we felt like the sh*ttiest humans ever because we didn’t know how we would pay for her funeral.

My MIL drove down to us, helped with all the arrangements and my SIL covered everything. My aunt arranged a memorial at her house for the closest family. No one ever mentioned money, paying back etc.

It was such a horrible, unimaginable thing that happened and our family really banded together to help us without making us feel even more worthless.”

10. It’s on us.

“I went on a Homecoming date and order a bunch of food.

This old couple ended up buying our dinner because we reminded them of what they used to look like. I’m very grateful because didn’t have enough money to pay for dinner.

I was maybe $30 short. Still with the girl 3 years later.”

11. A gentleman.

“I was hugely pregnant and had very young children with me. We went to a free exhibit at an aquarium down town, I was unfamiliar with the area but found free parking several blocks away. (I was broke so finding a free exhibit with free parking was really a special outing for us.)

After the exhibit my young children and I started walking towards the car, but couldn’t find it. I figured I had gotten turned around and so we returned to the aquarium and started walking in the other direction, but still couldn’t find the car. We went back and started out in a third direction, still unable to find our car. It had started to rain and we were just lost.

A homeless man had been watching us, we had passed by him multiple times in our search. He told me he remembered seeing us first go in to the aquarium hours ago and what direction he saw us come from.

He offered to walk down that way and look for our car for us so we didn’t have to be walking around aimlessly till the car was located. I thanked him but turned his offer down, not wanting to send this homeless man out into the rain. He told me he was impressed with how well behaved my children were and he offered a dollar to buy them a candy bar.

I couldn’t accept, I mean how horrible of a person would I be to take money from someone who clearly needed it more than me – but he insisted. He said the dollar wouldn’t save him from being homeless but buying my kids a candy bar for being so patient and well behaved would make him feel normal and some days he just needed to feel normal.

It was an act of kindness I will never forget. I think of that gentleman often.”

12. Kindness.

“Was given a car by a former coworker. At the time I was walking or riding my bike eight miles one way just to get to work and then another eight miles to get back home. When working with her she asked if I wanted a car, thought she was joking but said yes.

About two weeks later she said her husband had this old car that he fixed up and is ready for me. From there she had me meet up at a notary and all I paid was for a title transfer and tax which only came around $150.

It wasn’t the nicest car but it worked and was road legal for the state I live in. Car lasted a year but still to this day I am forever grateful someone would gift me something that truly helped out tremendously. The only catch was whenever I’m able to, to pass along a good deed. I’ve tried to pass this on a couple times but whenever possible I still try to help those who need it.

I know she’s not on here but I sincerely appreciate all the help Debby and I wish only the best for you and your family. I’m still working on passing along good deeds as we have agreed.

Thank you so much for your kindness especially during a time in my life where I thought there was little hope.”
