what ya do when u encounter second embarrassment

If it's a story I put down my phone, take a deep breath, let it out, smack my chest a few times, think "get a load of this fella," pick my phone back up, and scroll right past the scene. I don't give a damn that I might be missing crucial information, it's too much for me.   1 reply

Cringe. Complain out loud to my husband or just in my imagination. Continue reading. Cringe again. Pace as i try to imagine the situation less cringe continue reading. Look back on it several chapters later and think “why did the author do that???” And cringe one more time   reply
