Sometimes, being the bad guy just sneaks up on you (17 Photos)

It’s hard to admit your wrong sometimes, and it’s even harder to admit that you might just be the bad guy in someone else’s story. Sorry.

“One time I got pissed because I overheard my parents who adopted me talking about going on a trip to the beach. They both knew I had never been. Told my mom how disappointed and pissed I was.

Turns out they were planning a surprise trip for me to go to the beach. I felt so bad.”

“I blew a tictac through a straw into an old guy’s face who was working at a car park booth when I was about 12 and still feel terrible about it a decade and a half later.”

“After being a bit of a tear-away and trying to get my shit together in school I told off a kid for wearing a hat that the school uniform didn’t allow. I later learnt he was wearing the hat because he’d lost his hair to chemo. Did not feel good.

For some context, this was in a UK secondary with a blazer-and-trousers-style uniform.”

“I ghosted a girl off tinder after we slept together. Not long after that I got hired at a restaurant and found out she worked there too. Then I saw her changing her wig and my trainer told me she had cancer.”

“I teach middle school, so I end up having to play the villain a lot. But one time stands out where I actually WAS the bad guy:

Last block of the day, we’re working through something that is not terribly interesting. I hear a few whispers and giggles and my teacher sense goes off. Out of the corner of my eye I see that a note is being passed around the class and that’s what’s causing the distraction. I muster up my best stern teacher face and boom “Put that in your backpack or I’m going to have to take it.”

Someone had found out it was my birthday – they made me a lovely card and were all signing it D:”

“So, I was driving my car into a roundabout, doing nothing wrong, not cutting up any other drivers, driving at a safe, slow speed, and suddenly HONK!!!! from another driver. I look up and there is a taxi about to join the roundabout and the driver staring straight at me. FFS, I think, these guys think they own the road. Now you’re not even allowed to enter the roundabout when they want to.

In my own defence, I was having a bad day so I did something I would never normally do. I slowed my car down to a crawl, and gave him the finger, maintaining eye contact for several seconds, turning to look over my shoulder at him so as to keep up the finger and the eye contact for as long as possible. The look of astonishment on his face at getting the finger from this respectably dressed woman was priceless.

As I exited the roundabout, HONK!!! again, but this time I realised the sound had been from a commercial playing on the car radio. It must be tough, being a taxi driver.”

“I was out of town and I went into a frozen yogurt place I’d never seen before with so many flavors. I kept asking for sample cups until I’d tried like 20 of them and was only halfway. It was amazingly fun!

I heard a parent giving a lecture to their kids who wanted to copy me about ‘how we don’t act like that man and buy ours’ That just ruined it for me, so I dropped a $10 in their tip jar and left.”

“I went to the movies with some friends when I was 13. Instead of US being the typical annoying loud teenagers, there were some loud women sitting in the row ahead. I didn’t hear the women, but my friend pointed them out and complained to me. In retaliation, I threw a handful of popcorn at the women and cackled like a madwoman.

Turns out I misread where my friend was pointing, and I didn’t hit the anoying loud women. I hit two quiet old ladies.

I felt like such an asshole.”

“I was in Tijuana drinking it up and this was in the 90s. I left a bar and when I made it outside, I realized that I left my wallet on the table.

I went back in and saw that different people were there and no wallet. I asked them if they found a wallet and all said no. I got more aggressive with them and started to threaten them if they didn’t return the wallet. I was a big guy in those days and I could tell they were scared.

By this time, the bouncer is noticing and I recognize that I’d likely get thrown out soon. So I told them that I’d be waiting for them outside and would beat their butts.

I went outside and was looking in to scare them and plus I was pissed. I then reached in my shirt pocket because I felt something there. Sure enough, my wallet was in there.”

“I was a dumb teenager once.

My sister was telling me that one of our neighbors was gay. Being the dumbass I was, wanting some cheap attention from rumor-mongering, I tried to spread it to a friend. She went up to him that moment and ratted me out.

Turns out, my sister was mad at him because he refused her advances.

I learned a thing, I guess.”

“Well yesterday i was on a 100 road and a cattle truck was going 60. I got pissed off and flashed my lights at him and he put his indicator on and slowed down as we were approaching a turn off. I thought “yes he’s going i can get in front of him now!!” but he instead drove back onto the road and continued going 60 so i flashed my lights again and he put the blinker on again. We repeated this four times before i realised he was trying to let me go past him…”

“One guy I dated, I went out of my way to do everything perfectly, to an obsessive level. From dates, to small talk, cuddling, social interactions with his friends and supporting him in any way I could.

It was only after we broke up that I realized I wasn’t going the extra mile because I cared, but because I had a deep seated need to prove I was the superior one in the relationship.

It was then, in fact, I realized I was the baddie.”
– u/LucasLindburger

“I have this bad habit of pushing people into finishing arguments instead of letting them take time to cool off, because it makes ME feel better. Every time, after it then SPIRALS UNCONTROLLABLY into a screaming match, I know I’m definitely the asshole even if it didn’t start out that way.”
– u/Mr_Nice_Guy615

“I was telling someone about the bully who knocked the shit out of me on the playground as a kid. I was like “yeah, so we were arguing in class and I was making fun of him and had everyone laughing, then on the playground he rammed me from behind and knocked my dick in the dirt.”

My friend was like “it sounds like you were the bully” and it fucking hit me right there, 20 years later, that I might have been the jerk talking shit and making fun of people.”

“I once asked my brother if I could have a chip. He’d just bought a massive bag of them from the chippy and I was really hungry. He said no and I jokingly went to put him in a headlock (the well known sibling dispute-settler) and the chips went on the floor.

Neither of us had lunch that day, and I still feel bad everytime I think about it.’
– u/archiaisdurannon

“I was on a date with a guy (I’m bisexual) and I was wearing my Lana Del Rey shirt and we passed an apartment where a humble old man said “Who’s the girl?”

I threw my bag to the sidewalk and went storming up to him screaming and swearing up and down left and right while the man helplessly looked at me until my date came up to me and said “He meant your shirt.”

My reaction was due to the assumption that the man was wondering which one of us was the ‘boy’ or the ‘girl’ considering it was two of us guys walking by as if he magically knew we were walking around together on a date which just further adds to how much of an asshole I was at that moment.

He never called back.”
