I shouldn't have said that....

Have you ever said something out of anger, or maybe just without thinking, that you immediately wished you hadn't? Share it! Try to keep it light, but if you want to talk about your wedding vows that's ok, too.

I was having a really bad, crappy day once. It was even crappier because everything bad happening was genuinely my own doing.

I was checking out at the grocery store and had a coupon for brillo pads. I gave it to the clerk, who was probably all of 20 years old working a low paying job to get herself through college.

She couldn't get the coupon to be accepted by the register and after 3 attempts she passed it back and said they can't accept it. I tried to argue that I had literally got the coupon 10 minutes earlier from a dispenser in this very store but she stuck to her ignorance.

Less under my breath than I thought, I said "stupid bitch".

In my defense I have never said that before and never since. It just slipped out.

As soon as I said it, I knew she had heard it. I was mortified and stumbled out a stupid apology but couldn't get myself together enough to make it sound convincing and left the store.

I went back the next day to apologize but she was even dumber that day.... Not saying she deserved what I said but I left with a clear concious.

This thread is definitely something I have plenty of experience in. In anger I have been mean and spiteful, how many of us have held onto anger and burst out in rage, at the wrong person. I had an Ex, who tried threatened to perform witch craft on me and faked a pregnancy, during our break up I said " I know you're not pregnant and even if you were pregnant, I don't want to know shit about anything that came out of you ". I didn't mean it, if she was pregnant I would have loved that crazy ass baby lol. I knew she was faking and it has was confirmed, but I still regret saying it, because it one of the biggest lies I've ever told.

Odds are that anything you learn here will be the wrong way to do things.

That should probably become a Lit truism

I was teaching 8th grade Communications. My students weren't allowed to eat candy or chew gum in class. There was one young man who didn't understand that simple rule and I was constantly telling him to empty his mouth. This day was no different and I told Kenneth to empty his mouth. "I'm not chewing gum or eating, I'm just sucking on this inkpen top." He took the top out of his mouth so that I could see it.

"Well, I guess it's okay to suck as long as you don't swallow." I cringed inwardly realizing what I'd said. Too late to go back and I wasn't about to explain. The class was so quiet you could hear a mouse tinkle on cotton.

One young lady whispered to her friend, "do you think she knew what she said?"

"No, I doubt it." We went on with class and I made no more Freudian slips. After my class the students went to lunch. The minute they were in the hall, the noise level quadrupled. The good thing is that Kenneth never had anything in his mouth again.

Many years ago, at a family gathering (Thanksgiving?), I got into an argument with my sister over something stupid, like silverware or something. As we argued, my brother-in-law came around the table to confront me. "You can't talk to my wife like that!" he said. "She was my sister a long time before she was your wife." I replied, and walked out. I still think it was a great exit line....

My husband and I were fighting and said a lot of mean things to each other. I usually try to keep my mouth shut during the argument because I know talk back wont help anything. But I was super upset when he said that he could not even imagine he'd be attracted to me sexually ever again. I can walk naked in front of him and he wouldn't even care.

So I said, "Yeah you wont. But if I had a penis you would"

I knew I crossed the line there and despite I am in a constant state of anger at him nowadays, I still regret that I said that to him every day

Early in our marriage, my wife (now ex-wife) and I were over at our friends house one night. A typical thing for us to do since we all were very good friends.

After a few glasses of wine (rum for me) the conversation turned sexual in a light and privately shared with friends way. I don't remember what led into my need to make my statement but I blurted right into a comment something in the range of professing that the best night of my life was getting a blow job from the soon to be bride of one of my friends under the boardwalk in Atlantic City as her last night before the wedding tribute to me who just happened to be in the very inappropriately right place at the right time.

It was a small little boast and I thought it fit right into the conversation we were all having. Except for that one mistake...I THOUGHT. My wife wasn't quite as receptive as I had envisioned concerning my proud bj story. I realized in a state of panic that she didn't care about the blow job...didn't even hear the part about how good that blow job was. I learned over the next twenty years that all she heard out of my mouth was.... THE BEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE!

I learned two valuable lessons that night.

1 if you start a sentence with "the best night of my life was," you damn well better be preparing to tell a heartwarming story about your wife.

2 If you ever make that mistake like I did....that phrase will come back to bite you in the ass any time she feels the need to pull it out and give you the, Oh was this even close to the best time of your life" look while she spews those words as if her head is about to spin completely around.

Had I been your wife, I would have erased that memory permanently! That BJ would have become the 2nd or 3rd best.
