Does anyone else get "stage fright" at the urinal?

From time to time. It's weird. Generally I never like to pee when I'm next to someone, but usually it just makes me take longer to start. On the other hand I've peed from a moving vehicle multiple times with no problem :D
 
I used to have this fear.

Then I found out the trick.

I just imagine that I own that restroom and they are using my bathroom, and I also imagine myself pissing on them. On their shoes, pants, just turning and peeing on them...

Giving myself that mental power makes me feel like I can pee anywhere anytime. It works.

Also sometimes I imagine my childhood pet cat rubbing itself on my shins...
 
depends. When I'm at the nightclub, yes. I will wait for the stall because I'm already tippsy as a mother fucker and by the time I need to piss I need to lean on something.

But if I'm out and about at the mall or restaurant, then no problem.
 
I'm uncomfortable going at a urinal, because it's quite difficult trying to fit my massive dong through a zipper. I don't want to look like an idiot fidgeting with myself at a urinal. It's much easier going into a stall where I can pull my pants down.
 
Holy crap! I just had a dream about this last night, but in real life not really. If I gotta go, I can go, even if at a urinal. However, I usually always check to see if a stall is open first.
 
Me.
It's a massive pain. Fine once the seal is broken, but having to start with someone close to me is really really hard even if I'm dying to go.
 
I can relate to this.

Just accept the fact that you're a stall guy

But what if you get bladder shy in the stall too? Like when it's super quiet and someone is pissing at the urinal...and you can't go because you know the other person knows that you can't go. :(

Some people just don't understand the struggle.
 
Had no idea this was a thing. What do you guys do if there's one of those long shared urinals with ice in them? Crumble to the ground, cry?
 
If I'm trying to pee and I don't really have to go, then yeah I get a little stage frighty. But if I walked into the bathroom because damnit I need to pee, then there's no stopping it. gushers.jpg

Was about to ask. In a fight between a full bladder and a shy bladder, which one usually wins? I don't see how a shy bladder could ever come out on top. Like you're bursting at the seams but nothing is coming out?
 
At first it was normal, then it would take a long time, then it would just be hard to do it around people. Now I can not fucking piss in public unless I'm in a stall.

What is wrong with me?

Never had that hangup. I could always do it, I would just prefer a stall. Now I don't give a shit, if I have to piss I'd rather use a urinal. Usually stalls are so much grosser, I just avoid them.

I know exactly what you're talking about but I think you're probably over thinking things, the other person doesn't really care what you're up to. But yes sometimes I'll just wait it out until they leave.

You could also just flush to have some background noise and hopefully you can go at that point, no shame in that.
 
I got that 1000x when I was in the hospital after a surgery and had to pee in the pot because I couldn't get up to go the toilet yet. Even with nobody in the room, my brain outright refused to release my bladder in the bed. It took several minutes of mental gymnastics to get the pee to come out.
 
I sure do. Happens very often. I feel a lot of pressure when i can hear other people's piss and I think to myself "Oh shit they can't hear mine! They probably think I'm here to stare at dicks!". I really need to reach a level of zen.

Wait for a stall.


also I never poop out of my own or family members homes unless it's an absolute emergency.

What is 33x17 ? Work that out in your head next time.
 
I had a medical school interview and they split us up into small groups to show us the different areas where we would be doing our interviews in. Our group finished first and our guide showed us where the washroom is. I go in there and its completely empty. I go up to a urinal about to piss when a ton of dudes suddenly enter the washroom and line up behind me. Apparently all the other groups finished taking a tour at the same time.

Stage fright + interview nerves get the best of me. I just stand there awkwardly and I just walked towards the faucets in shame. I was already mentally broken before the interviews already started.

I'll do that. Thanks.

Yeah i have had a few occasions where the pressure was too much and i felt like I was standing there for too long and just give up.
 
Used to have it. After a year or so of drunk nights out getting used to pissing in literally crammed urinals I guess I just overcame it.
 
"i bet his dick is bigger than mine"

runs through my head constantly

and that little bit of splash as it hits the little puck.. fuck
 
Has anyone ever pulled thier pants down to thier ankles at the urinal? Feels good man.

I have seen an old man at work do that, He'll just have on his tighty whities with his pants at him ankles. That's an uncomfortable sight to walk in on and have the prospect of going to the urinal next to him.

Doesn't bother me too much. If I'm having a hard time peeing I just flush the urinal once. The sound usually starts things.
 
I used to, same with taking a dump, but after I started traveling a LOT for work...it pretty much became a matter of necessity to overcome it.

The more you think about it, the worse it will be, so just try and focus on something else. As others have said: math problems, upcoming work deadlines, whatever. Just focus on something else instead of worrying about trying to urinate.
 
Happened on occasion but usually fine. Surrounded at both sides and last to join is tough going. Not an issue with friends for some reason.

I think a good tip is count down from 5 or 10 which helps you let loose on time. Also, just put yourself in the go now thought before you even pull it out so you're on the verge of pissing your pants, that way you can't help but burst the seal in relief that you got your cock out in time.
 
It's more commonly referred to as "pee shyness" from what I know. I usually only get it if people are talking or the guy is standing really close to me. It's annoying.

This is something I used to struggle with back in the day. I've gotten over it since I realized I'll never see those people again. Hell I may not even seen them then.

Never mind that, how about not being able to get out of bed at all, and having to go in a handheld container?

Seriously, wish they had just stuck a catheter in like they had another time when I had to be in the hospital and couldn't get out of bed.
 
You guys ever catch dudes peeking over the little border and checking out your dick? It's a little uncomfortable.
 
I used to, but my bladder is super small so I have to pee in stores pretty frequently, I've started just striking up conversations with people next to me to make them uncomfortable.
 
When there's a line immediately behind me (which tends to happen at music festivals) I can't go. When I know there's someone waiting very close, it won't happen even if it's urgent
 
Got a small dick so yeah. Brother said he got over it in the Army when people just wave their dicks about, that advice didn't really help.

I just stare at the wall and it gets going eventually.

There was a nice old man that used to walk around the department store I worked at years ago. Once he was walking out of the bathroom while I was walking in and he said hello and turned around to follow me back in. While I was peeing he went to the sink next to my urinal and washed his hands. Being much taller than him I could see him looking over the barrier to glance at my penis a few times. I couldn't even say anything cause I was in shock.Told my boss when I got out but the dirty old perv was long gone never to be seen again. I was always really friendly to that guy too so it was disappointing.
 
I had the opposite thing yesterday. Was at a mall, had to pee. Went to the urinal. There was one other guy there. I let loose and just couldn't stop. I'm sure I peed for two minutes straight, at full blast the whole time. That never happens, and it felt GOOD. Dunno what the other guy thought, but he went into a cubicle, shat, wiped and came out before I finished leaking.
 
Yeah man I used to have this real bad. Now it takes a conversation attempt to stop the flow (PLEASE. FUCK. OFF)

A combination of looking at the wall and what I can only describe as positive thinking has softened me up to it. Also I now think of the cubicle as the VIP, rather than a necessity.
