I Got Called a CB B*tch at Starbucks for Staring… But It Wasn’t What She Thought!

OMG guys, I just had the most embarrassing Starbucks moment of my LIFE Went for a chill coffee catch-up with my friend. We're minding our business, vibing...

Then this couple sits right across from us. The guy looks SO familiar—like, celebrity-level familiar or my long lost friend —but my brain is glitching and I CANNOT place him.

So naturally, I keep sneaking glances trying to figure it out. (You know that "wait... is that...?" stare )

We lock eyes a couple times. He notices. I notice he notices. Awkward eye contact Olympics begin.Apparently his girlfriend notices too... because next thing I know, she whips her head around and gives me THE death glare I immediately drop my eyes to my cold brew like it's the most interesting thing in the world. "Nothing to see here, just admiring this foam art...

"Few minutes later... she storms over to our table.

Her: "Why are you staring at my boyfriend like that??"

Me (panicking, zero chill): "No no no! I swear I'm not— he just looks super familiar! Like I've known him somewhere before, I promise!"

Her: "Yeah right. CB B*TCH" storms off

The whole neighbouring tables saw everything. I wanted the floor to swallow me.

My friend is shocked , I'm sitting there redder than a Venti Strawberry Acai.

Moral of the story:

If someone looks familiar... just Google them later. Don't play detective with your eyes in public. Has this ever happened to you? Mistaken staring disaster stories below pls, I need to feel less alone....

I have had worse, me an my frens we’re clubbing and there was this girl looked a bit familiar. Suddenly her bf who was 6 foot was standing opposite me and asking why I am staring at his gf. Luckily I was with good buddies who stepped in. Some of them were SPF and so the bf cooled off fast. But I learnt a lesson and that was never again to stare so…. Ya thanks for reminding

  I wasn’t staring. I was admiring the person’s appearance，trying to recall who was this guy. Staring would be CREEPY. I'm not 变态
