One of my most awkward experiences staying with a friend happened during a weekend trip. I had assumed we’d have some casual hangouts, but I quickly learned they shared a room with their parents. The first night, I woke up in the middle of the night and needed to use the bathroom. I tripped over a pair of shoes in the dark, which startled their dad, who was also up. He shuffled to the bathroom, and we ended up standing there awkwardly in our pajamas, both too startled to say anything. The whole situation felt so surreal! The next morning, my friend teased me about my “midnight showdown” with their dad, which didn’t help ease the embarrassment! Safe to say, I’ll check the living arrangements next time. What about you?
