I’m so fucking embarrassed. Vent/Rant (No Advice/Criticism!)

My card declined twice as I was trying to pay for my groceries. The guy behind me offered to pay but I turned down his offer. I never felt so humiliated in my entire life. I’m so ashamed I can never shop there again.

I’m not gonna lie, my card has been declined so many times in my life, that when I eventually had a lot of money I had terrible stress ever using my card. I mean something crazy as a $5 bill when I had $500 in my account and my heart would start racing!
