Dating is a minefield. Even when you get a coveted match with someone you can hold a conversation with, there's no guarantee that the two of you will hit it off in person, and even then, you have to be careful not to put a toe out of line in the early days.
It's why so many people, particularly women, are mortified at the idea of breaking wind in front of a new partner, let alone introducing them to workings of their bowls as this man did.
Yes, you read that right. A guy was left mortified after he accidentally got poop stains on a woman's bedsheets.
On a happier poop note, this is the incredible moment a whale poos in the ocean:Taking to Twitter, the man's friend, Levi, shared pictures of the debacle that were captioned: "My mate has had a nightmare here, staying over in some girls [sic] house he's been seeing."
Yes, we have second-hand embarrassment too.
Explaining the situation to Levi, the man wrote: "Had a dirty whiskey sh*te came back. Must've [not] wiped my bum properly. There's shite stains on her bedsheets."
Levi then responds with a series of laughing face emojis.
It's at this point that the man adds: "Really bad sh*te stain clearly sh*t."
Levi, spotting that the exchange is viral gold, tells him that he will be cropping his friend's name out and posting the exchange on Twitter.
Levi then tells his friend that he'd leave the girl's home and "delete her off everything".
It's at this point that his distressed friend replies to say that he's just sitting in her bed and covering the damage with his leg.
Needless to say, the exchange went down a storm on Twitter, and at the time of writing, it has received 25.9K likes and 2.8K retweets.
It was at this point that people offered up their suggestions as to how he could recover the situation.
One Twitter user wrote: "Ask for a strong coffee and then accidentally spill the cup on it... too late for you but happy to help future faux pas! This can also be used if you pee yourself."
Levi then provided an update from his friend, who said that he was going to have to make his escape soon because the smell was starting to become noticeable.
A Twitter user named Andy then provided a detailed analysis of the picture, writing: "Fantastic. You can see where the sheet must have been wedged right in his crevice and folded slightly in the middle."
In his last update, Levi revealed that his friend had near enough shifted the blame onto his date when he spilled Coke and beer onto the sheets.
All we can say is this: Levi, you need to tell us what happened next.
