In my opinion it's a moment when you do something so stupid or spontaneous that the second after you do it you grow a pit in your stomach or make a face as if to say "Gosh that's gunna hurt me in about five minutes...."
For example maybe you said something you couldn't take back, you tripped on something in public, or you sent a text message to someone that you shouldn't have.
Diamonds, I wish I could tell you that you get all your awkward moments over with during puberty, but they are actually only the beginning...
I think we should take some time to practice how we recover from these awkward moments now in our youth, or practice avoiding them.
Next time you want to tell a girl how much you really don't care about how her toothpaste spilled all over her pajamas, think about it first, and instead of telling her you'd rather die than listen to her talk try thinking of something else in your head, or just leave. It may seem rude to just get up and leave all abruptly, but I promise it's a lot better to leave without saying anything than staying and saying something nasty.
My best advice for not doing anything stupid, put yourself in the other persons shoes, what would you feel like if someone said to you what your about to say? Or how would you react if someone sent you a text message like that?
That really always helps me avoid sticky situations, also reading a text twice before you send it, I've also found that these tips help you from not looking like an obsessive girlfriend, or a potential stalker.
And you won't believe how many more OMG-moments you'll get from being a stalker or an obsessed girlfriend....
