That awkward moment when you load in and all your armor has gone.

 

[Neveraine]

That awkward moment when you tell someone you are married and leave out the "in Skyrim" part.

 

[Neriad13]

...you do an awesome finishing move on Weylin upon entering Markarth, but fail to do it before Margaret's death. >.<

 

[Neriad13]

...with large amounts of potions to aid you and a full suit of steel plate armor, you still somehow get killed by a random drunk and high Khajiit dressed in rags who needs to strip your corpse for his skooma money.

Posted on this a lot, but doing it again ^_^ What can I say, I'm awkward xD

That awkward moment when you spend an hour (And counting) deciding whether to take Meeko as a follower and leave behind your stray dog who's been a follower for a really long time, or leave Meeko by himself and keep the stray dog.

I seriously cannot decide >_< I wish there was a console command for two dog followers.

That awkward moment when you sacrifice your housecarl to a cult and have to walk back overencumbered because she was "carrying your burdens"..

 

[Neveraine]

SPOILER!!!
That awkward moment when you play the game with a new character and go to join the thieves guild and dark brotherhood and you know that Mercer Frey and Astrid are going to betray you, but there is nothing you can do.

 

[Neriad13]

...you, your companion and the bandit you're both fighting are all blocking at once, intensely staring each other in the eyes, all succeeding at doing absolutely nothing at all.

SPOILER
And the awkward moment when the fact that Mercer tried to kill you isn't even a minor detail to be mentioned. Ever.

Heh, the Aedra's revenge for worshipping Boethiah

That awkward moment when you go from playing Morrowind, in which you've console-commanded your character to "setspeed 250", to playing a new character in Skyrim at level 1 in heavy armor and wondering why you're barely getting anywhere before your stamina runs out.

That awkward moment when you deliberately download a reduced texture mod for Skyrim before buying Skyrim for your integrated-graphics laptop that might be able to play Skyrim with the mod installed.

 

[Neveraine]

That awkward moment when you are attacked for stealing from someone and then you pay off the guards and the people keep attacking you, so the guards kill them.

 

[Neveraine]

That awkward moment when you are posting stuff, so much that you stop waiting for people to post in between your posts and start to have multiple posts in a row.

 

[Neriad13]

...you're taking a quiet stroll in the Reach, turn a corner, run directly into a completely unexpected flame atronach, yell "HOLY plops!" at full volume and subsequently kill the thing in two blows.

...you turn a corner and stumble upon two saber-toothed cats, one sitting on top of another in a terribly suggestive position.

...an NPC is convinced that a hostile gang of mudcrabs stole her bag of Dwemer gears. Just...why?

 

[Breton]

...when you're just strolling around a Forsworn camp, looting and staring at the nice scenery, letting Marcurio handle all the Forsworn (because, you know, he can), then you realise you've forgotten all about the Briarheart. So you close the chest you've got your head stuck in, turn around, and the Briarheart's there and he one-hits you with his dual power attack.

 

[Neveraine]

That awkward moment when while you are typing your message someone has already stolen your idea and posted it, but you don't find out until you post your reply.

Oh, that wasn't me, was it?

That awkward moment when you lie to someone to try and make sure you don't hurt their feelings.
No of course it wasn't you.

Awkward...

 

[Neveraine]

That awkward moment when you lied about a lie, so now everyone is confused and no one will trust you ever again. (I lied or falsely implied that I lied when I said "No of course it wasn't you."

 

[Kaleia]

That awkward moment when you finally realize who your grandmother's voice reminds you of.

Cicero.
