One time I was in a restaurant bathroom, possibly Chilis, and I went to use the sink. Only problem is the sink was positioned to where when you look in the mirror you get a full on side shot of the urinals. So I look in the mirror and there it is, some guys junk just staring back at me in the mirror... It was pretty awful! So if you are designing a public bathroom pleas keep in mind that you can see everything behind you when your at the sink!
Its called Paruresis. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paruresis And the OP is a moron for making a big deal out of it.
Wow seven years later and i finally find the identity of the filthy animal. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=131065
A couple things that I always go by is if someone is already pissing when I get to the bathroom I make sure there is a stall between us if possible. It just seems weird if you walk up next to a guy if there are plenty of vacant stalls. If you must piss next to someone, keep head focused at the wall in front of you or look up at the ceiling.
If I apologise then I'm letting my beta out. That's what the self help book taught me. I can act an alpha behind this keyboard though.
Man as if being awkward wasn't enough this guy goes and makes it worse. Americas favorite word is phobia.
OK, I'm going to let my beta by saying thanks! I think OP may have shown some beta characteristics by running to the forum and ranting how someone didn't piss by him. I don't know Nook.
I can't piss outside sober without concentrating for 10 seconds even if I really need to go. It's like some left over potty training conditioning or something.
There are far greater problems in the world to worry about! My advice, stop clenching and let it rip, and if you do let it rip, make sure to go all out and make it instrumental! Show the guy next to you that you have far superior farting power and that you are not afraid to use it! Be advised that this demonstration of manliness might actually garner you a high-five from total a stranger. ....... ....... .......
