Everyone has a weakness of some sort, whether it be buying weird stuff one sees on late-night infomercials or ordering entire fast-food menus. This can extend to everything from music to daydreams, as a pretty normal part of being human is finding pleasure in things you would probably not admit to the folks around you.

Someone asked “What is a guilty pleasure of yours no one knows about?” and people spilled the beans. So get comfortable as you read through, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your personal vices in the comments section below.

"I Love The Feeling Of Glass": People Open Up About Their Guilty Pleasures (40 Answers) I leave for work earlier than I need to so that I can go to the harbour beforehand for a calming coffee and smoke with the view of the early morning mist rolling across the sea, and the early morning fishing charters leaving for the day.

When I was in grade school my teachers told my mom the same thing. Mom and dad were divorcing and I was probably dreaming about a world that was still "whole".

"I Love The Feeling Of Glass": People Open Up About Their Guilty Pleasures (40 Answers) I sometimes fantasize about just not being alive any more. I'm not going to take my own life or anything, but it's somehow comforting to imagine not having to carry around all the burdens that come with life.

It's called Passive Suicidal Ideation; it's a real thing and it's 100% fine to seek treatment for it. PSI can be a warning sign of other mental illnesses or burnout, and a sign you need some TLC

"I Love The Feeling Of Glass": People Open Up About Their Guilty Pleasures (40 Answers) Especially when it’s cold or there is some major weather event going on, I usually will just lie in bed and think about how nice it is to have my wife and kids safe and secure under one roof. I’m not an actual hard core prepper but I do think having food, water, supplies gives me a sense of comfort.

This used to be called just being responsible, but when I managed to get to the point after escaping from poverty, where I could genuinely have enough food in the house without worry, and a little money set aside for emergencies - I genuinely felt so safe and confident.

I love doing this. I have a folder where I save ones I particularly like. I also collect floor plans. It's nice to have to have floor plans available if I'm writing and want to describe a house, or if I'm building something on SIMS or House Flipper. But I also just really like floor plans.

I have similar fantasies except it always involves getting on a boat and sailing away into the wide blue yonder. In reality, the last two times I was out of the country I had crippling anxiety the entire time, so I know I'd never actually be able to do it. (Also I don't have a boat or any knowledge of sailing other than the difference between the prow and the stern).

Just wait until you get older, when there's more behind you than ahead and you're reading something and suddenly a thought like that hits you. Then imagine that it happens once or twice daily.

Smelly is most usually used to describe unpleasant smells (and scented to describe pleasant smells) but not always. In UK "smellies" is often a colloquial term for soap, talc, cologne and deodorant. As in "I got a load of smellies for Christmas"

One of the main differences between men and women, is that if a woman says "smell this", it usually smells nice.

I'm really into "gentleman's club" type smells since my divorce. I don't smoke and hate the smell, but tobacco oil mixed with other things, including sandalwood and Oud makes the house feel like mine rather than me living in a woman's house

Between my Brother, Niece and her Husband that lives with us, we have over a hundred scented candles. That doesn't include wax warmers, aromatherapy burners and the insane amount of incense that we have. The one good thing is that my house always smells good, because someone is ALWAYS burning something.

"I Love The Feeling Of Glass": People Open Up About Their Guilty Pleasures (40 Answers) I like to dance with my wife. By dance I mean traditional waltz (family makes us all learn, mother in law and my mom have been friends since kindergarten so she put her in the same class as me). She thinks I hate it because when we were kids I wouldn't stop growing so I was always stepping on her toes when we had to practice together.

I spent way too many years b***hing about the lessons for me to admit that I like it when she asks.
