Have you ever done anything really extreme get out of a situation you knew would be really uncomfortable?

I'm going to admit that a few years ago, when I had to go on school camp, I didn't want to have to sit with my entire year at meal times, so for three days I went without food or water, and made myself sick, because I was so dehydrated, is anyone else as dumb as me? Embarassed
I always wanted to confess that Embarassed

I had a similar experience... in 2004-5 when i was in 11th and 12th grades, when I went to school I hated breaks or recess, because that would mean I'd have to go down to the canteen and mingel with people/sit with them. with the result I never ate anything during school (and the hours used to be pretty long). When I came back home, I'd be starving. I had gastric problems because of that, but thank goodness those two years were over!

Trust me Emma I have done worse things. Things I can't even speak of here and I carry it around with me everywhere I go. No regrets! Cool

My senior year in highschool I was chosen as a homecoming candidate. I freaked big time. So the night before homecoming I waited until my family had gone to bed and I snuck outside and stood in the freezing cold, wearing only my boxers, hoping that I would get sick and not have to go to school the next day. Sad

I just remembered for some reason in the sixth grade I didn't want to go to school the next day so I kept hitting my head on my bed frame hoping I would get a bump or a bruise or something so I wouldn't have to go...just got a sore spot Laughing

.
In School i would always pretend to be sleeping on the school bus to avoid the conversation.

On Marching Band trips I would do the same. Once in a while we would have out of city band trip over 8 to 10 hours long. I would try the sleeping trick but i could only sleep for so long. I would then listen to the radio but the signals were unreliable . I would then listen to cds(pre i -pods )but eventually you run out of cds to listen to.

At work i would drive home for lunch breaks but during hurricane season gas prices would explode making that expensive. Also during the touris and Holiday season the trafic congestion would make a 5minute trim 45minutes.

Right now a work I simply delay my lunch break so that i alwayse arrive later than my co-workers but that doesn't work anymore cause now I have developed a repuation for
avoiding taking lunch with my co-workers.

Now those mainstreamers (my co-workers ) joke that iam snotty/stuck up / etc...etc...

I never eat with my coworkers either and I also think they think I'm pretty rude. I usually don't eat at all, or eat something really small at my desk. It's really dumb, I know. It's not the eating I don't like but just the being with people that freaks me out.

In scouts I'd go weeks without going to the bathroom. No lie!
