Today, I went out to buy a bottle of wine and some condoms. As the cashier scanned the condoms, she snickered and muttered, "Yeah right." She was right; I really was just desperate to look like I have a sex life. I got so upset that I left my items and walked out with tears in my eyes. FML

Today, I was buying condoms but was a little embarrassed so I went to the self-check. I scanned the condoms, then a magazine and tried to put the condoms under the magazines to hide them. The store guy saw me, thought I was shoplifting and I was kicked out of the store. FML

Today, I went to the drug store to pick up a few things. After looking for condoms for 15 minutes, I asked the cashier where I could find them. She said they keep them behind the counter due to theft. She refused to sell them to me, because they're for customers who might actually need them. FML

Today, I went to the local pharmacy to buy some condoms. When I went to go purchase them, the elderly lady behind the counter took one look at me and said, "Honey, you're your own birth control." FML

Today, I went grocery shopping with my toddler. At the checkout, I realized that I forgot my wallet at home. As I frantically searched my purse, my toddler shouted, "Mommy, do we need this?" and held up a box of condoms she'd grabbed from a nearby shelf. Everyone stared. FML

Today, I went to the store to pick up some feminine products. As I was paying, the male cashier looked at me sympathetically and asked if it was my girlfriend's time of the month. I'm a girl and was buying them for myself. FML

Today, I was buying condoms at Walmart. I grabbed the XL size, and the cashier commented, "Ahh, you'll definitely need a smaller size." FML

Some salt for that wound?

Today, my ex-husband’s new girlfriend stopped by the pharmacy I work at, checked out at my lane, and had me ring up her condoms. She kept bragging about how she’s gonna have “nasty freaky sex” with my ex all night long while I work at a “miserable pharmacy.” I burst into tears while she laughed and waltzed away. FML

Today, I went to the store with my girlfriend. She needed to use the bathroom so I started looking at the books. It wasn't until the manager shot me a weird look that I realized I'd wandered down too far and was looking at bridal magazines, holding tampons, dog treats, and hair spray. FML

Doesn't matter if she was right, she acted unprofessionally. I'm so sorry she treated you like that. You'll find someone special.

I realize you must care about what others think, but it really doesn't matter what they think. Don't feel the need to fake it.

I would go back and complain to the cashiers boss. Doesn't matter if the cashier was right she has a job to do and insulting you isn't it. I would make sure she got fired that's totally uncalled for.

Why would she laugh at someone who wanted to get drunk and make balloon animals? Sounds like a perfectly fun evening for someone who doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell at getting laid.

Don't worry about it man, who cares what people think. I bought a blow-up sheep a couple years ago as a gag gift and I didn't care what the cashier thought of me, I only thought of freaking her out. Now whether or not I had sex with it is another story for another day.

You're not a piece of shit, as your name suggests. You're not pathetic. The cashier was a bitch, but that is not a reflection upon you. Don't try to prove anything to anyone else, not the people you see at work or school, not the cashiers or pedestrians in the street, because the only thing that matters is your own self-worth, and your own peace. Your sex life is your own personal business, and sex itself is not essential. Having sex does not alter who you are as a person nor does it impact the quality of relationships that you can provide. Somebody out there is waiting to love you. Go get some counseling, battle your self-confidence problems, wake up every god damn day and smile into that mirror. Don't ever let them see you cry.
