I’m pretty sure everyone has seen that episode of SATC (Sex and the City) where the girls are discussing their “secret single behavior”. I think Carrie’s was eating crackers covered with jelly over the kitchen sink, Charlotte’s was staring at her pores for hours and Miranda’s was putting lotion and gloves on her hands and watching infomercials. Samantha said there was nothing she did alone she wouldn’t do in front of a man…LOL!
In case you haven’t figured it out Secret Single Behavior is the things you do alone that you would never do in front of anyone else. Especially the opposite sex. I have been living alone for the past seven years (I don’t do well with roommates…long story) and I have developed some SSB of my own.
For example….at night after I wash my face and brush my teeth I pluck my eyebrows. I could seriously stand there for half an hour with my magnifying mirror and Tweezerman hot pink tweezers and pluck my eyebrows or just stare at them trying to decide if they need to be plucked. I’m weird, I know. Ha!
I also have dance parties with Sophie about once a week. It’s usually at night when I have worked all day and haven’t worked out and need to let some energy out. I will just crank up my Pandora Slow Motion station on my iPhone and go to town. Sophie LOVES dance parties! :)
I also love to go to the movies by myself and get the LARGE tub of popcorn and a LARGE diet coke and eat the WHOLE THING. Of course I have my own shaker of White Cheddar Cheese to put on the popcorn. Shout out to my friend Liz who got it for me! Ha!
I’m not sure if the last one is SSB or just gluttony. But I wouldn’t do it in front of anyone else so I’m calling it SSB! :)
What kind of Secret Single Behavior do you have?

you know, I cant really think of any SSB that I do but then again I probably do everything really weird! I cant deal with roommates either!! I guess my current SSB’s are baking late at night, talking to my dog, and watching hours of trashy reality tv shows/ wedding shows on the weekend. oops :) hahah xoxo hope

I LOVE THIS POST TOO!
plucking eyebrows is so horrifying for me. the PAIN! i’m a baby though, but it’s definitely SSB.
i will NEVER cut my toenails in front of anyone. i think it’s so disgusting.
i’m gonna think of some stuff and get back to you! this is great.
