High pain tolerance with this is borderline dangerous
I once went on a tech support visit to someone’s bosses office, finished what I was doing, left, and the guy escorting me told me my hand was bleeding the entire time.
I am absolutely that oblivious, i didn’t even know what I nicked myself on, didn’t even feel it
I’ve had cuts I didn’t know about, but the worst was when I worked retail and managed to smash my upper arm on a shelf, and apparently I was bleeding bad enough to leave a broken trail from the front of the store to the break room.
I couldn’t feel anything but the aching of the blunt force trauma, I didn’t feel the sharp cut or any stinging at all.
I’ve also had plenty of small spots I have no idea how they happened, but usually I’M the one to figure it out…
…ooof. I have a high pain tolerance as well… Totally get this. A lot of things breeze off, then I wonder why I’m suddenly bruised, or my toe is broken.
Tldr: inattentiveness, bumping into tons of stuff, and only remembering it when you look at the bruise or someone reminds you.
An explanation that’s meant to be humorous because it happens to me and my wife all the time:
“Oh my god, where did THIS bruise come from?”
earlier that day
bump “ow, how did I hit the coffee table…”
bump “fuck that hurt, I swear the counter was another 6 inches over”
smash “FUCK the freezer door closes too quickly!”
has to be reminded of these events to remember tham
This is where im blessed, my body very very rarely bruises so most people have no idea how clumsy I am on a daily basis.

I had this while working the other week. Only in my break I noticed my hand was bleeding…
