15 Things That Feel Wrong But Are Totally Acceptable
It might feel awkward, but it's totally ok.
1.
Watching my dog poo, even though you just need to pick it up after I always feel like I’m invading his privacy.
2.
Going to a legal weed dispensary. Every time I walk in and smell the weed, I’m like, “Oh fuck I’m gonna get caught.”

Isn't it weird how society makes so many of us feel weird about doing the things below, even though it's technically entirely acceptable to do it? Social norms are so weird!
6.
Calling out of work for actually being sick. There’s that fear of, what if they don’t believe I’m sick.
7.
Leaving a store empty-handed. If I don’t find what I’m looking for I feel like a thief walking out without buying something. I might be alone in this.
10.
Asking for a drink or something in someone else’s house if they’ve taken too long to offer. I was taught to never ask in case they didn’t have and my request makes them feel bad. So now I don’t do it unless it’s absolutely necessary and I will only ever ask for water to be safe.
12.
When someone dies, buying their stuff.
We lost a relative this year and have been desperate to get rid of all the stuff so we can move on. Friends and family have been so hesitant to take things that we just can’t store so we’ve been jumping through hoops to sell to strangers.

Being an adult and not liking alcohol so you don’t go to as many social events with your friends.

I always felt so bad in college when my friends told me they had loans and had to spend all their money on books when my parents paid for mine.
19.
Asking for time off at work, I always seem to feel like I’m doing something wrong when I ask.
