I am still in total shame.

We went out for dinner and the restaurant patio was full of mosquitos. Now, I am a simple person: I see a mosquito, I SMASH IT. Usually they pick me as their meal so I’m used to slap myself withno problem.

But then one of those bastards flied on the beautiful face of my BF and started to suck (🤨). I tried to shoo it away but BF was startled of my sudden movement and I ended up slapping him in the cheek without him understanding WHY.

I AM SO STUPID. I told him “I AM SO SO SORRY, there was a mosquito” and immediately stood up to go wash my hands, since I had the bastard smashed on my palm. He laughed but then I realized that all the other people saw me slapping him and then immediately going away like in a damn telenovela. I went back to the table and ate my pizza feeling emarassed af. I am still cringing.

We resolved with me paying for his dinner and then he slapped me on my “other cheeks” so all is good😂

TLDR: wanted to protect my boyfriend from a mosquito bite, ended up involuntarily slapping him in a restaurant hall, no hard consequences except shame and a bit of cringe
