TIFU by saying no to a game

TIFU by getting into a relationship with a girl whos the daughter of a man who was involved in my dads murder

Quick flashback I was 5 when my dad was murdered in front of me in cold blood, it was intentional, I am now in my 30s. So I meet a girl at a Giant EDM festival (EDC pre covid) in a different state and she was amazing , Blue eyes, blonde hair , funny, energetic a Perfect female for me. We hit it off and all has been well until three nights ago.

While out having dinner we decide to share stories of our past and families. She begins telling me her dads story and it was strangely a similar to my own, and so the odd vibe continues. I ask more questions, as does she and its confirmed without a reasonable doubt our dads knew each other down to the neighborhood they both lived in. It gets better... She asks if she may text her dad and ask how does he know my dad by name, I agreed and she did. daddy starts blowing up her phone “Where are you, who are you with, whos asking, are you ok” etc. panic questions she begins to cry and says “Daddy I’m fine but do you know this man?” He says Yes I do. She then puts him on speaker phone and He tells her “baby remember when I told you daddy was arrested for witnessing a murder? Well thats the murder I was there in the car when they opened fire and I saw that young man your with in his dads car”

She bursts into tears and i grab her phone while shes panicking and ask him “so you know me? I have one question, did you kill my father?” He said “No I didn’t but I was with the people who did and I was also very young mod teens I was at the wrong place at the wrong time”. My anger went thru the roof and the girl was flipping on her dad also. I call my mom and ask about the guy and she was shocked he was present because she knew him personally . SMALL WORLD! but he was apologetic and said he was not involved in planning or even in execution he was just there with no knowledge. Convo ended, bill paid I took her home and next morning we had breakfast to clear the air. We are still dating but she no longer speaks to her father.

TL;DR Started dating a girl who’s father was a witness to my fathers murder when I was 5 years old

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...
