That awkward moment

[Trevor]

When someone contacts you on social media, says they remember you well from school and you don't remember them at all.... 

I've been told that my ex girlfriend who is also on FB is trying to contact me: no, don't think so.

I have had that happen!  Mortifying!  One person was chatting away at me, asking about family and mentioning old pets and events...and I still cannot remember them at all.  Yikes.

I had a version of that happen to me when I was in another city with my daughter last month. A person walked up to us and greeted me by another name, but I just smiled and shook my head and kept walking, which was awkward. My daughter asked me why this woman called me another name and I said, "She must've been confused." 

My daughter said, "She probably knows your long lost twin."

Good explanation.

I would recommend not responding. They could be an old friend, but they also could be fishing for information.

Remember that scene in Huckleberry Finn where two con men stop in a bar (or somewhere) & chat with a local to get info on a prominent family? Then they use that info to get in with the family & gain more info? Which they use to try to steal someone's inheritance? You might not have inheritance, but there are a lot of cons, fakers, & identity thieves.

When your pants fall down in a room with other people.
Because your so drunk and trying to find the bathroom?
Ya know?
You don't find out about until the next day. Happens to everybody! After you fell onto the toilet and puked until dawn.
