Reciprocal Guilt

1. The act of lashing out at another as a result of one's own guilt. 2. Justifying one's own misdoings by pointing out the actions of others whether true or not.

Simone was cheating on Chris. When she found out Chris was talking to another girl, Simone went ballistic with reciprocal guilt and accused him of all kinds of stuff even tho it wasnt true!!

pub guilt

The feeling when you've doggedly pursued a healthy lifestyle (for 1 day-forever) and then your work pals invite you for an afterwork drink... and you realise one pint will ruin everything.

Internal monologue: I really want to go out and have fun but I'm already feeling pub guilt - an internal dreading of huge amounts of calories and naughty additives that will ruin my attempts at being healthy.

I'll just go home - can't face the pub guilt.

I can't come out - I'm going to the gym. Best to avoid the pub guilt.

edit guilt

The guilt you feel from amassing terabytes of video footage from your video camera (GoPro) and then hiding it away from the world because you’re a lazy, worthless, procrastinating human being who wants the final edit to be perfect for your three youtube subscribers.

“Hey Scott, are you bringing your GoPro On our road trip?”
“No, I don’t want more edit guilt”

college guilt

When overprotective parents guilt you into not going to the college you want to go. Oftentimes happens when the college is too far away. Used as a last ditch effort to get their kids to stay close to home.

You: I am dealing with such bad college guilt from my parents. They are really against me going to college in Florida but I want to go so bad!

Friend: You should do you what you want to do, it’s not their college experience.

You: You are 100% right, I should trust myself and not be guilt tripped into going where my parents want me to go,

Face-guilt

When someone you hardly know/don't particularly like sends you a friend request on Facebook/My Space. Even though you don't really want to be friends, you feel obligated to accept the request.

Jen: Hey, I see on your Facebook page that you're friends with Bob now. When did this happen?

Sam: Face-guilt, man! I felt too bad rejecting the request.
