Do you feel Guilt?

I've only recently truly experienced extreme guilt.
A couple of nights ago, I went to the skating rink and invited a couple of friends. Well, among my group of friends, I usually joke around and tell them that my birthday is "March 34Th." Well, a particular friend I invited was having trouble convincing her mom to let her come, so the friend told her mother it was my birthday party.
When they arrived, my friend's mother decided to stay and hang out. She kept giving her daughter money and telling her (for the sake of not revealing identities, let's call her "Lisa.") to buy me drinks and snacks if I wanted any. Now, at first this wasn't a problem. I had eaten dinner before arriving at the rink, but as time went on "Lisa's" mother continued to bother her about buying me a drink or snack or something.
This started to make me feel awkward, as "Lisa's" mother continually gave "Lisa" more and more money, all of which was intended to be spent upon myself. I tried to tell "Lisa's" mother it wasn't really my birthday, I really tried. But I just couldn't find it in my heart to crush her trust in me after believing it was truly my birthday for so long.
Now, to add to this guilt, while at the skating rink, "Lisa" bought a pen with ink that only shows up under a special, ultraviolet light located on the tip of the pen that can be activated with a button. To try it out, "Lisa" wrote the word "Losers" on my upper right arm. When she shined the light over the marking, "Lisa's" mother assumed it said "lovers." Now, ever since I've met "Lisa's" mother, (which was admittedly awhile ago, at a McDonald's) she's had this idea in her head that "Lisa" and I are a couple when we're just close friends.
Well, the "lovers" misunderstanding coupled with the money intended for me to indulge on was enough to make me suffer inside. Just when I thought I couldn't feel any guiltier, something else happened.
She offered me $5o. Fifty. Dollars. If that wasn't a guilty feeling, I can't tell you what was. Taking money from a woman who believes it's your birthday when in actuality your birthday is over six months away is just too much to handle. I told her thanks but no thanks, and that I had to leave. I left the rink immediately and hoped I could forget all about that night.

A better question is, when DON'T I feel guilty *laughs*
I feel guilty about many things, even on things that I do on accident. And even though nothing extremely bad happens, I can't shake the feeling out of my mind. A perfect example is actually yesterday, right after it rained, I went to a donation center to give plasma for money, so I can buy two weeks worth of groceries. Well, on the way, another car was driving by me and I accidentally hit a puddle...which was actually a pothole FILLED with water. I splashed a big wave on the guy's side and felt terrible afterwards. Of course, he probably shrugged and wiped off his windshields, but I felt guilty the whole day.
I guess the reason why I feel this way all the time is just due to past experiences of screwing up and being hit and the fact that I want to be a nice guy. I don't like having people hate me, although I already know that I do just because of me being...well, me.
*laughs* I'm just a basket case I reckon!

I feel guilty when I think i've done something wrong, although I can quit forums and things like that rather easily without saying a word to any of the friends i've made there without feeling guilty.

I feel it to unbearable and borderline-ridiculous levels.

I was at a disco , and this girl , (just call her emma ) , is always trying to annoy me , and sees this as an chance to make a show in public , and her being an "early developer" she thinks her boys will back her up if things go wrong , and they do , to an extent , so what happens , she knows i dont like pictures of me being taken , and knows i can take it to the heart , so what do you know , she starts taking pictures , . after a while , no more c--p , take the phone , smash it , and she sends in a boy to beat sense into me , Now me ,trained in kempo for 4 years , and being very big with powerful leg muscles , almost land the chap in hospital , turn to her , (still losing the head , beyond believe ) give her a box and throw her against a wall , bad bruises in the face , and she runs home crying , had to have her mam pick her up
Now Im the center of attention , everybody stopping to have a look , and not soon after , i had to leave
next day , knock on my door , her and her dad want to see my parents , they go on , leave , and my parents dont say anything
guilt/pride/confusion in a box

I'm the guiltiest person I know. No matter what I do, I'll feel guilty, no matter how stupid or insignificant it is. I just can't help it.

I'm sorry, what was that? I couldn't hear you over my pillaging, raping, good night sleep, and general destruction.
Oh, and my sweet hog. Oink. Oink.
