TIFU by having sex toy wipes delivered to my elderly ex-landlady's house.

I (22F) ordered 3 packs of sex toy wipes from Lovehoney as my fiance and I had ran out. The account was first made when I was a uni student living as a lodger with a 78 year old lady and was single and ready to mingle.. They were supposed to be delivered on 23rd December, however post arrives today and still no sight. I check the tracking and realise they have been delivered, to the house I used to lodge in.

Me and the landlady have a friendly relationship but this was a new intimacy I didn't want. I sent her a quick text saying that a parcel arrived for me and would she mind forwarding it on, I would cover postage etc. She replied almost instantly to say she opened the parcel as there was no name (old people), and that the fancy wipes looked like a nice sample selection for her 2 year old grandson so she had given them to her son and his children for Christmas. I am MORTIFIED.

The wipes themselves only say toy and body wipes on, but it is written underneath a huge Lovehoney logo. I used to babysit for her son and daughter in law and am truly horrified by the fact they will 99% think their elderly mother has bought them some sex wipes for their young children.

My ex landlady is transferring me the money and I have told her that she ought to let her son know they were meant for me, as I doubt he will be able to recover if he thought that of his mum. Meanwhile, I am deleting her address from any and all accounts as quickly as I can.

EDIT: I panicked and said the wipes are not something you would give to your grandchild and are an adult gift, so she is fully aware of their intention now.

TL:DR I sent sex toy wipes to my elderly ex-landlady by accident and she opened them and gave them to her 2 year old grandson for Christmas.

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
