Raise your hand if you are the awkward one in your family. Now stand up if you are the awkward pickle that acts like a weirdo around people you find attractive.

You are not alone my fellow awkward pickles.

I have this cute neighbor. He lives just across the way and I’ve seen him going to and from work a few times. And taking out his super cute dog to potty.

I casually walked out of my apartment to run a few errands. My hands being full of boxes I was taking to the post office and my sunglass sitting on my top off my head in the midday summer Texas sun I started shaking my head to try and get them to fall down. The darn things wouldn’t budge, barely being a few steps outside my door I let out a groan.

It wasn’t a cute little ugh or pfft. No, it was a full-on man-sized Ugnhhm.

I looked over to see him staring at me. I shifted the boxes and dropped my sunglasses laughing way to awkwardly and walked off.

Now he probably thinks I’m crazy. So much for my love life.
