Uncle here (an uncle, not your uncle, obviously). He may have simply heard the commotion back there and noticed the open door and closed it for you. Maybe he saw you from way across the house, maybe not. Who knows, and it doesn’t matter. Nobody wants their nieces or nephews to get all worked up over mishap about showing some skin. Let it go because he probably already did.

I had an ex who used to think it was hilarious to call me and tell me she was in a horrible accident and her car was upside down in a ditch somewhere and she was hurt....

She fucked with me but fast forward like 6 years to meeting my current significant other and she actually has gotten into awful accidents on her way to work and now I can't stand my phone ringing when she's driving anywhere

Probably wouldn't be so bad if the first ex didn't give me some serious ptsd from those calls

I've changed my nieces diapers, I've seen her naked until she was probably 5 or 6 years old. She's older now and physically mature, but she's still a child in my eyes, and a family member. Seeing her naked now would be entirely a non-issue, I wouldn't see her any differently than had I seen my own kids naked.

Years ago my dad accidentally did something similar in front of my wife.

My dad and step mom were going to host a dinner, and my wife was in the area a bit early and rather than go all the way home she texted them asking if she could just come over. My step mom told her it was no problem. My step mom did not mention, however, that she wasn't home and only my dad was there. In retrospect, my step mom should have gotten confirmation from my dad first.

So my wife goes over, knocks and loudly announces herself as she enters (they usually left their back door unlocked when home), and starts hanging out in the kitchen after no one answers her. This is fairly common in our family when gathering at their house.

Apparently my dad was showering and didn't hear my wife arrive. So he gets done with his shower and walks out of the bathroom fully naked, and goes right into the kitchen in full view of my wife. I'm told he was very startled and ran back into the bathroom.

They were both cool about it, as it was an honest mistake on everyone's part. It at least gave us a funny story for future family gatherings.

As someone who is sarcastic down to my soul, every stressful or serious thing I've been in, I always crack jokes.

My mom's boyfriend shot himself in the foot on accident - nonstop jokes.

I broke my foot in several places- you bet I'm making jokes at my own expense.

My grandmother died - yeah I'm making jokes about how she used to be. And then probably doing a little crying afterwards.
