Things we all do but don't admit to

 Some activities and reactions are really absurd, but probably quite common ... Do you ever think that your reactions or behaviors are absolutely bizarre and you are ashamed to admit them? When you don't know how to act, do you feel like you are completely alone with it in the world? Well ... Maybe it's not very comforting, but each of us sometimes does something that we don't necessarily want to brag about. This is not about crime or betrayal, but about simple, quiet everyday situations.

1. Confused face when ...

... you pass someone you know by sight, but not enough to say "hello" or "good morning". Or when you get on an elevator with someone you know but don't really know each other. Or when you see the same person at the grocery store for 8 days in a row and you know perfectly well that they have noticed you as well.

2. Giving advice in mind

Another point that probably applies to you as well. When you hear someone talking on the bus or in a shop, are you mentally interfering with your arguments or opinions? Some people go even further - sometimes, quite unknowingly, to utter their judgment aloud. And then it can get quite unpleasant ...

3. Tapping the remote control when ...

... the batteries are weak. Or holding it in a weird way. Or pressing buttons extremely vigorously. No, pressing them in won't magically make them work, but you're definitely trying to do it anyway! A depleted battery sometimes leads to gymnastic acrobatics.

4. Leaving the store with an innocent face

We've done this a hundred times, and you must too. For unknown reasons, leaving a drugstore or supermarket without any purchases always seems a bit suspicious. After all, there is no logical explanation - you have the full right to enter the market and not decide on any product. Still, getting out of the discount store without even one thing is always a challenge. And this translates in your mind: "Behave naturally, you are not doing anything wrong, surely no one will think that you have stolen something since you go out without shopping ..."!

5. Accurate calculation of sleep duration

Are you doing it too? Just before falling asleep, you need to make sure that exactly 6 hours and 48 minutes are left until the alarm clock. Without this type of information, it is impossible to sleep well!

6. Volume down music to ...

... see better. Sounds bizarre? Think of it has never happened to you. When you are driving, you must turn the radio down sometimes to get better visibility. The relationship is obvious!

7. Disappointment with your own appearance ...

... in front of the hairdresser's mirror. No, we don't mean the nervousness caused by a missed haircut. We are talking about the moment BEFORE. Yes, the moment you sit in front of the mirror in a protective cape, right after washing your head. When the hair resembles wet pods, the ears appear more protruding, the face is huge, the tenth chin is revealed, and the clothes are covered with this huge sheet. Even women with high self-confidence then always think, "Am I really that ugly ?!"

8. Cheating that something is extremely funny

In an SMS or on Facebook you write: "I spat on the screen with laughter!", But in fact your eyelid does not twitch? Relax. We all do it. It's probably an inner conviction that the emoticon, crying with amusement, has already laughed on our behalf ...

9. Zezowanie on someone else's messages

Yes, yes, the confidentiality of correspondence applies to everyone. You would probably never open someone else's letter in your life, but admit it, hand on heart - you have surely happened to sneak a peek at a text message written by someone sitting next to you. Not? Or maybe, while standing in the tram above another, seated passenger, you happen to be bored to read what is displayed on the phone screen? Nobody has a completely clear conscience about this!

10. Unrestrained urge to go to the toilet when ...

... someone else wants to use it. Watching an immersive movie and trying to convince your bladder that it will hold on for a few more minutes? It is enough that someone else decides to occupy the bathroom for a moment and suddenly your physiological needs come to the fore! Have you been taking a shower for 40 minutes, but you still do something else? If your sister starts bathing, you will surely find out that it was you who intended to do so immediately!
