TIFU. Netflix. Weed. Awkward Situation.

Submitted by The_True_Autist t3_zxpqhd in tifu

I don't even know where to begin. Let's start with the Netflix.

Netflix account is like 6 years old and I have passed this account all the way through college, to family members, to exs.... wonder why they are cracking down on password sharing. My profile is the default but some people created other accounts.

I went on a wonderful date: nice restaurant, nice drinks afterward, decided to chill at a hotel with Netflix and chill if you know what I mean.

Incoming weed. Now I don't do weed much anymore after college, it messes with my mind. Paranoia like you can never believe, social anxiety, I need a nice confined area. When I'm sober my mind drives me crazy, thinking of every possible thing with every event. For example, I may have crossed the wrong people in the past who may have been Russians. Door dash driver delivers to me at a hotel who happens to have a Russian name. Sober me considers it a possibility but is rational enough to know its extremely unlikely and not to react on it. Weed me goes crazy often fully believing whatever idea comes to my head.

Netflix was going awesome, ate an edible and high is going on. Movie is over and looking for something else. Then the worst possible thing happened... like I'm trying to forget this.

Kid movies straight up and down the que. It looked like I was a weirdo. I was shocked and my weed brain is telling me she think I'm a weirdo. Of course since my brain believes it, it must be true and I must get ahead of the situation.

You ever been in a place where you try so hard defend yourself but only makes you more guilty. I tried to spearhead the awkwardness created in my mind and let them know a ton of people use my Netflix account and I do not spend hours on end a day watching kid shows.

Of course she's suspicious as fuck at this point and I tried even harder to defend it. Just back and forth super awkward tension that may have gone for like 30 minutes. The date ended here, what felt like hours but was only 10 minutes was the most awkward tense feeling I ever had to be in a room with someone. She left shortly after.

Tldr ruined a great date night by signing onto my Netflix account. Other people use the account and endless kid shows appeared there. May have dug my grave and making me look like a weirdo.

Your reaction to it is the weirdo thing, Really, even "My sister uses my account for her kids." Is probably suspiciously over-explaining.

Oh it was even worse, during the awkward overexplaining I was saying out loud like half a dozen names of people who may have set me up or have kids.

It was fucking bad

It don’t think op knows what Netflix and chill is supposed to mean. My man brought a girl back to a hotel and was trying to watch multiple movies.

Also get on anxiety meds. The fact you made this post is proof enough you’re crippled with anxiety.

If it makes you that paranoid and anxious then why do you consume it? Also it would’ve been no big deal to just say a friend’s kid used your Netflix account and went onto your profile instead of the dedicated one for the friend which it seems like you knew that’s exactly what happened and ask for a suggestion from your date

Only on rare occasions when the situation is right. I went many many years where weed didn't mess with me even with high consumption. Now I cave under all the anxiety if I have too much

Fair enough. Maybe look into getting help for your anxiety and mental health though if you’re a somewhat paranoid person even when sober though

They are all the shows for toddlers, even teletubbies. In hindsight and not on drugs it probably speaks for itself. Someone called it, it was the over explaining that broke everything
