TIFU by commenting "ew" on my friend's ig story comment section

Happened a few minutes ago and wanted outsider opinions. I (20M) am part of a close college trio: me and two girls. Earlier this year, my best friend Jules started seeing this guy who we’ll call Joey (he’s been dissecting her with his eyes since last year) and had a friends-with-benefits thing that began in February. I was supportive at first, but got concerned gradually by what she told me as time passed. I felt like he didn’t see her as a person, just someone to use and discard when he got bored sexually. Even when they had genuine friendship moments, I saw his act as part of still keeping her around. Ness is friends with both Jules and Joey (she knew him since last year and served as a bridge between them). What bothered me was that whenever I pointed out Joey's red flags, she'd defend him nonetheless, until he really hurt Jules. He once told her he sees all his exes as "pretty memories" and that never saw a future life with none of them without even saying how h...

TIFU being brought back into a situation and making things worse

TL;DR: I unknowingly had a relationship with a married coworker who lied and told me he was divorced. His wife told me, I cut contact as soon as I found out. Five months later, his wife found my address and left a note for even more answers.. it gets worse. UPDATE AFTER BEING STALKED I was an unknowing affair partner to someone and I met at work (22F/44M) and it was very public. 6 months later his “ex-wife” told me he was actually married and deceived me, after finding my number. I cut contact, she thanked me and nothing from there on. I basically had a lot of questions for five months, but I was trying to move on. Yesterday the wife finds my address and left a note. It had been 5 months so this all felt kind of sketchy. The note was in riddles, asking to meet up. I was very hesitant because before, he had told me she cheated on him and was insane. Even if she was crazy, I am still going to believe and respect what I am told so I stayed away. After him deceiving me, and her com...

TIFU by sneezing so hard during sex that I kneed him in the stomach and ruined everything

I (24F) was with this guy I’d been seeing for a few weeks. We finally went back to his place after a couple of drinks, lights off, everything was actually going really well for once. I’m on top, we’re both into it, and out of nowhere I feel the most violent sneeze of my life building up. I try to hold it in like my dignity depends on it. I fail spectacularly. I sneeze so hard that I clench, he slips out, and my knee shoots forward and nails him right in the stomach. At the exact same moment something else happened… loudly… and it echoed. He froze underneath me. I froze on top of him. The only sounds were me still sniffling and the very obvious evidence of what just happened hanging in the air. After a few seconds of complete silence he just whispers: “…did you just sneeze and… do that?” I tried to play it cool and said “maybe” in what I thought was a sexy voice. It came out sounding like a dying frog. He started laughing so hard he couldn’t breathe, which made me start la...

TIFU by uploading my private 'roast' notes about coworkers to the company shared drive

This is peak me energy and entirely my fault. I was helping a friend prepare for a small, private roast we were doing at a weekend party. I wrote a bunch of dumb, exaggerated jokes about everything from my friend Ben's addiction to terrible coffee to my manager's obsession with color-coordinated spreadsheets. All of it was meant to be playful and was stored in a file named something like "Team Roast - Final.docx" on my laptop. Fast forward to yesterday: I was cleaning up my cluttered Google Drive between meetings and decided to consolidate things. I opened the folder structure, saw a folder called "Projects - Shared" and because I was half paying attention and sprinting to my next meeting, I dragged the roast file into that folder instead of my personal folder. I realized what I did about five minutes later when I saw the little blue preview pop up in the Drive activity feed that shows who opened what. One of my coworkers had clicked it out of curiosity an...

TIFU by sleeping with my bestfriend who has a boyfriend

I 17(F) and my best friend also 17(F) - let’s call her Emma - have been super close for a couple years now, we met playing for the same football team. She has been with her boyfriend M(17) for two years. Both me and my friend are outwardly bisexual and I have always noticed a certain tension between us which isn’t exactly friendly and there has been certain moments where i’ve felt like something could happen. The boyfriend who I will call Marcus (idk if any of them have reddit lol) has had a few moments of being unfaithful to Emma, not really enough to be fully cheating but definitely weird. One time we were all at a house party and Marcus had his hand on another friends 17(F) thigh under a blanket which I moved because I saw movement under it. There has been other instances similar. Anyway I had a big family party which Emma had been invited to - she spends a lot of time at my house and knows my whole extended family. After all the rest of the guests left we were cuddled up on the...

TIFU by letting my CEO believe I speak fluent Japanese for four months because I panicked in an elevator, and now I’m hosting a dinner alone with executives from Tokyo

I’m currently sitting on the floor of my home staring at a wall thinking about what df I have done. To give a little context, I work as a low level data analyst at a mid sized logistics firm. I’ve been here about nine months. Back in late October, I ended up in the elevator alone with our CEO, I will call him Greg. Greg is one of those hyper intense, aggressive networking guys who remembers everyone's name and expects you to be a like rockstar at all times. He tried to make small talk and mentioned he had just gotten back from a business trip to Tokyo. Now, I do not speak Japanese. I did Duolingo for like three weeks during the 2020 lockdown, and I watched a lot of anime, but that is literally the extent of it. Instead of just saying "Oh cool, I've always wanted to go," my brain shortcircuited under the pressure of talking to the big boss. I decided to drop the one full sentence I had memorized, “Nihongo wa sukoshi shika hanasemasen" (I only speak a little Japa...
