The boss, the gossip & your friend’s girlfriend: People you definitely want to avoid under the mistletoe

It might get a little frosty if you bump into any of these people...

JOE

It’s Christmas party season.

So those dreaded mistletoe moments are just around the corner. Of course, the season can be a godsend if you’re under it with the right person…

But, if you’re stuck in that awkward moment with any of these lot, then you’ll be wishing you’d stayed at home.

Your Boss

Well, this is a tad awkward. Best to pretend the ‘far away land you come from’ doesn’t have these weird mistletoe-related western customs.

Of course, your flat Longford accent might give you away.

The office gossip

Anything you do in this situation is going to be exaggerated beyond belief, so best to do something that’s actually crazy, right?

Your ex

Just when you thought that the mistletoe couldn’t be any worse, your ex walks by, looking better than ever.

This kiss could rekindle an old relationship or just rub salt in an old wound. What do you do?

Your friend’s girlfriend

This wasn’t expected… or was it? Either way be careful, as this will probably all end in tears.

The person you actually want to kiss

Of course this is ideal… unless they don’t want to kiss you that is.

Don’t lose hope yet though, your ex is probably still here somewhere.
