TIFU by backtracking on something bad that happened

Something messed up happened at work and I spoke up about it, and because people started walking on eggshells around me and asking me if I'm okay I panicked and backtracked minimizing it, now I look like a liar who exaggerated and it feels awful, I should have just let it go, but now I'm just going to suffer mobbing and I'm probably going to be the laughing stock of the company, I ruined my credibility too and my relationship with the person who believed me (but shouldn't have said anything to other people on my back especially when I told her to not say anything). I'm pissed, and sad, and heartbroken because I betrayed myself, but having people walking on eggshells around me was driving me crazy. I don't know what to think or feel about anything. I'm sad, I just felt like I was going to get fired and I just wanted to last ten more days. What if people actually believed me and I fucked up by backtracking? What if this person doesn't get fired now? Pe...

TIFU: How I fumbled the prettiest Girl and now I don’t know what to do next

Like, I met a girl this year. She was my junior (-1). She randomly texted me about some society/club joining requirement. I didn’t know much about her at first, but from January we started texting. Then she sent me an Insta request. We used to talk sometimes not very much, mostly related to branch future scope, jobs, and all that stuff. I had never seen her properly before, but after her Insta request I saw her and man she is sooo pretty. Just wowww. 2 months passed, we still talked occasionally. I didn’t try to make much effort from my side as a senior because uska approach karke apne lawde nhi lagana the. Then one day I was sitting at college CCD on a bench, my face towards the cafe entry gate. She walked in with her friend and we both knew each other’s faces very well by then.Her friend was ordering something and she was looking at me, and I was also looking at her. Suddenly she got a little smile on her face, and my stupid brain kept saying:😭Don’t say hi, let her say hi first...

TIFU by opening my mouth

My (40M) girlfriend (36F) asked for one specific thing for mother's day. A ring from Pandora engraved with her daughter's hand writing. So this morning I took her 5 year old to the mall to get this done while mom got a pedicure. I tried repeatedly to get her daughter to write her name in the small space but she's 5... letter sizing and spacing ain't her forte. So we pivoted and she wrote "I ❤️you mom" it took the whole space but somehow she could pull that off but not her name. So, we picked up my girlfriend and her daughter wanted to give her the ring early. My girlfriend opened the box and just the tone in her voice told me she was mad that it wasn't exactly what she wanted and she started acting angry and pissy. I know she's had some bad mother's days and I'm broke but trying to make it work, spent $110 of my last $190 dollars to get this done. This was the best I could pull off and thought this would be good... so I swallowed my anger a...

TIFU by renting a house from an old lady who decided to act like she was my mom

I rented a house for an elderly woman who was in her student years. She turned out to be very nice and kind. She baked me cookies and told me stories. She lived in the hous next door to the house I was renting. After three or two weeks, something terrible started happening. First, she started saying that I turned on the light too often, then that I used a lot of water. How she found out about this, I still don't understand. She would come to the house when I wasn't there, telling me not to stay out too late, not to talk to guys, just complete nonsense and complete brutaly. What happened was that one day, I woke up for class again, washed up, and went to the kitchen to make breakfast, and there she was. She started telling me why I didn't go to my first class, why I was still home, why I was sleeping, and that she wanted to go wake up me. I was completely shocked, and I asked her, why did you come here, I was renting your house, it's now my property. She started saying v...

TIFU by Taking Out my AirPods at Work

So let's just jump right in... Aside from a few daily rushes, I work at a fairly slow pace office which affords me the benefit of being able to listen to audio books while I work without too much interruption. To paint a picture, I work in the logistics department of a synthetic DNA distributor, or to put it simply, I work in the shipping room with up to 5-6 other coworkers at any given time. In a typical day, one employee is picking orders while the rest are verifying and packing them for shipment. Today, it was just me (39F), my boss (54M), and one coworker (40F) in the office. It was a very slow day and I've been in sort of a... mood... lately, so today I swapped out my usual fantasy adventure book with something a little "spicier". Okay it was a LOT spicier. This wasn't a slow-burn romantic love story. This was hardcore, bite your lip, heavy breathing, smut ... and it was right at the, er, "climactic" moment that my boss decided to look up and ...

TIFU by trying to recreate a DBZ shockwave with my fists and learning that punching hurts

This happened today. I was binge watching Daredevil, before going to toilet. So some of the actions were still on me mind. While i was sitting there, i started thinking about how in DBZ two guys punch each other...where their fist meets fist and a big shockwave happens? Idk i just thought "yeah lets act that". The first time i just brought my left and right close. just touching. Then idk why, my brain blanked for a tiny moment - like my fists acted on their own. I repeated the fist collision with real force this time!! My left knuckle bone smashed into the area just below the knuckle of my right middle finger. The pain was immediate and SHARP! You know the saying "life flashes in your final moments " ... in that moment of immense pain, i thought of the daydreams where we imagine punching bad guys. And my brain was like " Register this pain fool. punching aint so easy". So i sat there for couple more minutes in pain and contemplating -- how ...
