We all have our secret guilty pleasures, those things we secretly enjoy but would rather never tell because it might be embarrassing or might not paint us in a good, mature light. Some of those secret things you enjoy but won’t admit in public are:
Singing Karaoke Alone In The House
Many of us have won Grammy’s singing in our bathrooms. We enjoy singing alone, to ourselves, at home, than we care to admit. It can be slightly uncomfortable to admit you love your one-man concert where you’re the performer and audience.
Adult Colouring Books
I genuinely never thought some people loved adult coloring books until I went out with my closest pals and we got to talk. So, people want to sometimes relive their childhood, and so want coloring books. But there’s also a therapeutic effect coloring book gives that many people don’t talk about enough. You should be proud to talk about your coloring book, even if your art is the most beautiful.
Collecting Old And Unique Items
Collecting antiques might be vogue in some eclectic communities, but it is still a strange thing for people to like doing. In a world blooming with technological advancement, collecting old and unique items might get your friends bizarrely looking at you. And if you don’t plan on selling these acquired items, then you look more freakish. But it is fine to have such a hobby. Just make sure you have enough money for it.
Reading Self-Help And Motivational Books
Many people believe self-help and motivational books are for people who can’t fix their lives themselves so they look for motivational books. Loving to read self-help and motivational books should never be something you should be ashamed of.
Learning Fictional Languages
After watching Lord of the Rings, I know several people who want to speak elvish. It is an insane hobby for one to have, some will admit, but a hobby nonetheless.
Food Experimentation
Many people claim they’re food lovers, but not many of these people openly talk about how they love trying out weird meals. Of course, not everyone who claims to be a ‘foodie’ is crazily experimental with their food, but the ones who are don’t mention it publicly often because they might get a weird look. Some people might start asking them really weird questions about absurd food combinations.
Listening To Nature Sounds
This is one of those things people enjoy doing that gets others giving them the ‘you’re crazy’ side-eye. Nature sounds can be refreshing, and even though people are rarely proud of loving the sound of flowing water or the chirping of birds. However, it has been scientifically proven that it helps reduce stress and anxiety.
Stalking Your Crush
This can be a terrible thing to love because it comes across as creepy, but some people love the chase of stalking their crushes on social media. Some even create fake social media accounts, turn on notifications for the crush’s posts, and obsessively follow their crush.
Following Unsolved Mystery Cases
The human mind loves mystery, so it is not out of place to find people who love watching mystery cases. But it gives off a weird, crazy vibe when one talks about it in public.
Binge-Watching Niche Documentaries
While we are told to expand our minds, it becomes a bit creepy when a person only watches a particular niche of documentary. It is seen as not being open to new ideas and rigid.
Men Watching Romantic Dramas
The world is heavily stereotypical, especially when it comes to male and female hobbies. A man who loves, and openly admits how much he loves watching romantic dramas is viewed as crazy. And if for any reason he loves Kdrama, his ‘weirdometer’ ratings go off the ceiling. Never admit, as a man, that you love romantic dramas.
Collecting Comic Books
It is fun when children love reading and collecting comic books. But the scale of acceptability quickly tilts to ‘crazy’ when an adult openly talks about their love for collecting comic books.
Building Lego Structures
We all can admit that we miss our childhood. But we are not allowed to admit that building Lego structures with those Lego bricks is fun. We would be mocked if we did. But many of you love your younger cousin’s Lego. You want to build with it!
Tarot Card Reading
If your circle of friends is not the eccentric type, then admitting your love for reading tarot cards makes you look strange and uneducated. But tarot card reading is a cool thing to do.
Extreme Couponing
Have you met those people who are always looking out for coupons on every item they want to buy? They never tell people publicly because it makes them look cheap. Maybe they’re not cheap; they’re only looking for good bargains.
Building a Collection of Bizzare Photos
Having a few strange photos is normal. Having a collection of weird photos you’ve carefully curated over the years is over-the-top creepy.
Attending Fan Conventions
Attending fan conventions is seen as strange and a thing that should never be talked about because an adult should not be such a fanboy that they attend fan conventions. But who attends these hall-packed fan conventions?
Gaming Marathons
This is an addictive behavior, no doubt, but many people enjoy doing it. People are often ashamed to admit in public that they enjoy extreme gaming marathons because it has some social stigmas attached to such open admittance.
Obsessing Over Astrology
Some people love astrology so much that they can’t go a day without reading or watching astrology content online. This love sometimes translates to them interpreting many happenings around them with an astrological view. And this can be crazy, so they would rather not say anything about it.
Memorizing TV Ads
Some people love the rigor of memorizing every word TV ads use. It is a secret game to them to see how fast they can memorize an ad, and repeat it verbatim in the right voice cadence and tone.
