TIFU by saying no to a game

TIFU by making my husband think a threesome (FMF) was waiting for him when he got off work.

So this happened last night.

Let me start with this. My husband works grave yard and we’ve been happily married for 7 years. We are high school sweet hearts. I grew up knowing the things he loves from home. And one thing he loves from his childhood is a dessert called grandma Ella cookies. They are ritz crackers with peanut butter covered in chocolate.

I grew up in a household where sweets weren’t the norm. I’m a wicked baker and I make cakes all the time but like as just for the two of us it’s not often. Why do you need to know this. It’ll make sense below.

About two weeks ago I was saying good bye to him as he headed off to work. I was thinking about how much I love him and how much he does for me. And I realized in the 7 years we’ve been married I’ve never made him grandma Ella cookies. And it’s due to my upbringing. I just don’t think about sweets. And he could make them sure but cooking isn’t a skill.

It’s something his mom use to make all the time. And I have the recipe from the family recipe book I was gifted when we got married.

So I started planning. I wanted to surprise him with a plate of cookies when he got off work because i mean it’s been years for him. He hasn’t had these cookies in years and it’s because of me!

So I made them last night. I was so excited. And I love surprises and gifts because of my love language. Problem is that I always spill the secrets. But I was determined to keep this secret.

So before I went to bed I texted him. “I have a surprise for you when you get off work! “ He replies oh really And I say “yes I realized that there’s something you haven’t been able to have because you’re married to me. And I feel bad.” He says, “ hmmmm I can only see the positive being married to you, and I can only see negatives without you” So I tell him that I’m gonna keep it a secret because I’m super excited of it. And that when he sees it, it’ll make sense.

Here is where I fucked up... after about ten minutes later I also texted him that I was feeling randy and was hoping when he got home we could have sex. And he agreed right away. But then I sent him some sexy gifs.

I ended up going to sleep. But then woke up a little earlier than intended and sent him more gifs. The cookies were already in his game room so my part was done.

My husband came home and found the cookies and then asked me... is this surprise? And I said yes!

He then looked at me and said... “ I like the cookies but I want you to think... how do you think I took texting... (I was like idk) telling me it’s something I haven’t had... what’s something I can’t do because we are married. What I would never do?

I thought for a while and then a lightbulb went off... I was like sleeping with another girl!! Oooooooo....

He was like: you then talked about having sex and then sent me sexy gifs... I was thinking at work no... she wouldn’t. Would she? But what about the kid ( we foster). Maybe he went to a sleep over? But Covid?

I just started laughing uncontrollably. I felt so bad. And he laughed too.

He, of course, thought the cookies were awesome and ate all of them. But now I think maybe I better set something up! Hahaha

TL:DR. I made special childhood cookies for my husband but because of my awful texting skills he thought he was coming home to a threesome and all he got was a plate of cookies.

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...
