A little while back, one of my readers asked me to share an embarrassing moment. The thing about embarrassing moments is that everyone has them, but they aren’t always easy to recall. I finally thought of one, so to kick off the weekend, Mr. Handsome and I made a video blog to tell the story:

Are you sure the right Mr. Handsome came home from church with you? Maybe you should run a DNA test!

There’s Embarrassing Moment #2 right there. :0)

You two are just adorable! It’s great to be able to see the two of you interacting. Gotta love Mr. handsome’s sense of humor….you play off each other quite well.😊
By the way, is it always a prerequisite that dentists and their spouses have such great teeth?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ellie
Thank you, Nadine! Haha, I’m not sure. I suppose if a dentist wife didn’t have good teeth, the husband could fix them, so either would probably be fine. Lol.

So when you two have each other you had all those feelings…..think how it feels for people any age who are alone and single and have to go to church that way. That is me, it is mortifying, humiliating, embarrassing, shaming, every week! This is perhaps my most embarrassing thing….just being single everywhere.

I thought people went to church to worship, not to form opinions on anyone’s marital status. Is there that much personal pressure on single people from other church members? Why would they be interested in something like that on The Lord’s Day, in The Lord’s House? Seems then it’s their shortcoming not yours, A.mouse. Seems you have nothing to be ashamed of! Have you tried visiting another church where you might feel more at ease?

11:04, I think the OP is being slightly dramatic, and I doubt that anyone at their church really cares if they’re single or not. Going to church alone and single (or anywhere for that matter) isn’t some earth shattering event. Life is what you make it, you can waste it feeling sorry for yourself or you can actually DO something with it. You don’t have to be married to have a full life.

Wow, I’m single and almost all of my friends are currently dating, and let me just say, being single is what you make it. You may never get married, and you’ll have wasted so much time complaining about being single you won’t have enjoyed your young life. Constantly complaining and having a pessimistic attitude isn’t going to get you anywhere in life. I’m not saying any of this to be mean, but to give some perspective. Also, maybe you should join some young adult groups, you never know, you could meet someone😉

It is interesting that a couple gets sympathy for their emotions but a single person is judged as a pessimist for their emotions.

It really doesn’t matter what others think or say.
I’d rather be whispered about for being single because i never got married, than because I’m single due to a broken marriage.
Many of us, myself included, hoped to be young wives and mothers… to have someone to go through life with. But this is not what God has planned for all of us. Let’s try be grateful for what we do have, rather than what we don’t.

I enjoyed watching this video. I didn’t realize you guys had quite the sense of humor.

Here is my recent em: I was cleaning for some one. You know crouching, bending, lifting, pushing involved. Next I stopped for a cup of tea at a quick coffee shop. Then I walked to catch a bus. On the way I saw my bank and I needed to do something at the teller. So I was standing in line. Kind of numb from the day. Oopsy poopsy out came some gas making an audible sound! The petite, neat lady in front of me quickly shuffled ahead and then turned and looked at me with a disgusted look! (Maybe Mr Handsome can say how to recover from that!)
Ellie
LOL! We’ve all had those moments. It’s always funny when others around you pretend to be disgusted, as if they’ve never experienced that before. 😉
