TIFU dafür dass ich damals bescheuert war?

TIFU by thinking my wife was cheating

So obligatory this happened earlier this week.

I work from home, my wife has the two kids during the day after they are done with online classes. She works hard, she on top of shit, but has been stressed, for obvious reasons. She usually leaves the house after they are done with school to run errands.

Well this week she left for a couple hours, didn't tell me the plan because she was in a rush and I was in a meeting. She was gone for much longer than usual, and when I called her, her phone was off. I shrugged it off, she routinely forgets to charge it.

Fast forward to that night, everything is cool, she's watching Bravo, I go down stairs to play videogames. Well right next to me is her jacket... It smells like another man's cologne. Im like no way , how could she, when could she? My mind starts running, did she really drop the kids off at the grandparents and meet up with someone?! Wtf! I thought we were good, like really good!?I'm curious and mad, but don't say anything.

The next day we she asks me if we can play Diablo 3 together again in the basement. It's our thing and a way she triea to meet me in my world. (Shes also a really good GR pushing wizard) I say sure we go down stairs and when we get down there she lights her new candle.

I about died. It was the same smell as the cologne! I bust out laughing, she asks me why and I tell her. She laughs and reminds me I picked the candle out, because it smelled like a cologne ! ("Charcoal and Black Teak- with notes of birch and lavender")

TL;DR Almost accused my really hard working loving wife of cheating because I picked out a candle that smelled like cologne. Smh

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...
