TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by insulting a company executive's genitals

This happened when I was about 13 or 14. I was homeschooled in a pretty sheltered household, so I often missed innuendo that I absolutely should have been old enough to understand. Most of the time I was smart enough to not repeat anything, but every so often, I slipped up.

I went on a vacation with my parents and grandparents around the area my dad had grown up. We quickly found a local diner we frequented for breakfast every morning, and they offered a free local newspaper with plenty of cartoons and jokes throughout. We collected a number of these, and I got bored one day and read through them all. One of them contained a joke about how often people lower in the company will often play games like basketball or football, while you always see company executives playing golf- "the higher you are in the company, the smaller your balls!" My innocent little brain saw this as nothing more than a speculation on who prefers what sports.

At the end of the vacation, my dad decided to spend a few days visiting his old high school friends. We went for dinner at one of his friend's houses, and as the conversation progressed, his friend mentioned that he had just been promoted to a very official-sounding, high up position in his company. I gathered that if he played golf, I'd be able to compliment him on his new position in the company, so I looked this 40 year old man dead in the face and said, "is it true what they say? About how the higher you are in the company, the smaller your balls are?"

This poor man was mortified. How are you supposed to respond to a young teenage girl calling your balls small? He choked on his water a little bit and desperately looked to my parents for help. I saw that the joke hadn't flown and divulged into the explanation about how I thought he might have played golf, to which everybody breathed a huge sigh of relief and started laughing at me. I didn't understand what I had done until my parents pulled me aside later and explained male anatomy.

TL;DR- I misunderstood a joke about the size of a man's balls. Accidentally insulted an old friend of my dad's who had recently received a promotion.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
