When you are playing human chess *See human chess* and after a continuation of human chess moves, you both decide to stop moving and try to give the other person a chance to go though and it ends up feeling Very very akward. Also it may get you to end up playing Human chess again! And Again See Human Chess

When you're in a public bathroom and you and the person next to you both have to poop but both people refuse to make the first fart and initiate the pooping.

A situation whereby two people know each other quite well, but not well enough to feel comfortable to "add as friend" on Facebook.
Both are unwilling to request the friendship in fear of being rejected or being thought of as weird. However, both would happily accept the other's request.
Therefore both remain on the other's suggestion feed on the homepage, until one of them plucks up the courage to request.

Guy (sat at home on computer) : "I can't add her, I've only spoken to her twice!"
Girl (on iphone) : "Should I add him? Or will he think I'm a desperate hoe?"
Guy : "shit its a facebook stalemate"

*Two people are trying to walk through a doorway*
"After you."
"No, after you."
"No, no, no. I insist. After you."
Looks like they are stuck in a chivalrous stalemate.

Much like in the game of chess, a bathroom stalemate is when two people are in a public restroom and neither wants to be the first to go, so both sit silently in their respective stalls as they wait for the other to leave, or for some loud noise to disguise their business.
1-I had to poop but found myself in a bathroom stalemate and had to wait for 20 minutes.
2- Stupid public bathrooms!
