Is it normal to think of doing things that will embarass myself?

Or that will make my life crappier? For example, I may be on a bus or something and have an incredibly intense urge to get off on the bus stop coming up even if I still have an hour to get home and if I get off I'll have to wait to in the freezing cold for the next one. Another example is, I might have my cellphone and want to text my friend something that will make them hate me (even if I love them to death). Is this normal?

    You've a wee devil on your shoulder telling you to be a rebellious rascal in order to self-destruct.

    Don't act on it, you'll grow up someday.

    I know that feeling exactly; I don't know whether it's normal or not, but it's definitely something I do a lot! Like when I'm in a relationship I'll deliberately do something to fuck it up, even if I absolutely love the person and have no problems with them, or I'll go walking round the city at night on my own because I might get mugged or jumped or whatever! I don't know why I do it, but it just seems like I should! Just... Stay safe! Shit's gone down for me by doing stuff like this in the past!

    I've thought of similar things. Robbing a bank, jumping out of the car on the free way, sky diving into the ocean with no parachute, putting yourself into an intensely dangerous situation to see what happens. I think its normal.

    Hm, interesting. Sounds pretty weird to me to be honest o.O
    But I guess it's normal?

    I've often thought about things like this, but I've never really acted on the urge before:/
