    I am so embarrassed. I lent a flash drive to a friend that had a whole bunch of music on it without looking at what else was on it first (I was in a hurry, okay?). When I got it back today I discovered that there were several files on there that I had copied off a secret folder on my old hard drive, that I would NEVER EVER want anybody else to see. These include embarrassing photos of me, as well as a rant about how I need to stop crushing on a certain person. (Who this other person that I lent the flash drive to is also friends with.)

    I haven't had the chance to talk to him yet to see if he looked at any of the files other than the music folders. I just talked to his girlfriend on the phone and she said he never mentioned anything, so hopefully that's a good sign?

    Oooh... Oh well, you can only hope for the best! Maybe ask his gf if she can somehow steal the flash drive away from him for a moment and then you silently slip him another *cleaner* one.

    And welcome to the club of life. I've done dumbass things before, and I'll probably do them again. At least I can laugh about them now.... ha ha... ha... ...

    Well, he's already returned it to me as I said, so it's too late to do anything about it. I don't THINK he would say anything to anyone even if he did read something he shouldn't have. I really hope not, anyway.

    And yes, I'm sure I will laugh about this someday. But for the moment... eesh! So awkward!

    Nothing to be done. Pretend he didn't see anything, because chances are he didn't. :slight_smile:
