When Fun Turns Awkward: The Dare I Regret

in voilk •  2 months ago

    The craziest thing I have ever done on a dare is the one I am fighting so hard to erase from my memory; sadly, it has proven very difficult, hehehe. Dares can be fun until you play games with some weird people who can think the unimaginable, leaving you with an unforgettable, crazy experience. Before I disclose what this dare was all about, take it from me: I dare not dare again, not anymore after my last rough experience, lolz.

    It was an evening of fun and adventurous moments with some friends in my house. Each person with their partner, including a few friends who weren't married. It supposed to be an end of the year get to together where we just eat ,drink , dance and go but this particular event took another turn, and someone brought an idea of Truth or Dare game. Initially, it was very exciting hearing lots of hidden truths from friends. We all were laughing so hard with the uncovered truth that happened many years ago. Most of it was silly, and it made the moment fun, exciting, and enjoyable. Personally, it had a way of calming my nerves, and I was tagging along with the flow until I was dared to do something crazy! Oh, that evening was something else. 😃


    I was dared to locate which of the men available is my husband while my eyes were being tied completely. The rule was to feel the palm of the men's hands and detect which is my husband. At first, I was bold enough to tell them that it's a simple game and that even in blindness, I can comfortably detect my husband, but not until reality came knocking. I was wishing to be pre-informed about this game so that hubby and I would plan on something, not to lose in the dare game lolz.


    The game was on, and my eyes were tied with a cloth. The instruction was to detect your husband and kiss him; unfortunately, if you pick another man other than your husband, you must kiss the person too. Ahh! That was too extreme, and some of us objected, and the kiss was substituted with a warm hug. I began searching for my husband through feeling the man's palm. You needed to see how friends were screaming loudly, especially when I missed my husband and went to pick someone else, and as the rule said, we dare you, Nkem, to blindly detect your husband and give him a warm hug blindly, lolz. Immediately I tried hugging; oh boy, I noticed it wasn't my husband. I have messed up completely, hahaha... glad it wasn't a kiss as firstly suggested.

    The whole environment changed, and everyone was laughing hard, teasing me all through. I was seriously sad, and I noticed that my husband was very angry that I couldn't detect his palm. Even though it was a game, I had to really apologize and have my peace.Let me say it's those kinds of dare games I would never dream of trying again in my lifetime.

    My heart raced! The embarrassment I witnessed that moment was the craziest experience of my life, indeed an unexpected dare, and the experience taught me to know my limit, set boundaries, and not do anything against my values even if it's just for game's sake.
