34 Everyday Encounters That Will Always Be Excruciatingly Awkward

25. Being The First To Pee In A Toilet Stall

It's bad enough that you've just gotten up at the same time as someone else and stalked them to the bathroom but it's even more awkward when you both get stage fright and wait for some sort of noise to hide the fact that you're going to the toilet - which is bizarre because if you need to pee, then pee. Usually you'll wait for the other person to leave, anxiously anticipate the time that it takes them to flush or wash their hands and then you'll eventually allow yourself to give in to the call of nature.
