TIFU by stabbing my fiancé

So last night around 1am my fiancé and I are woken up to a bang coming from what sounded like our bathroom. It sounded like someone dropped the toilet seat or something. No one else lives in the house with us so my mind immediately flashes to intruder.

I asked him if he heard the noise and he says yes, he'll go check on it when he gets up for work in a few hours. I said someone needs to go check now, because an intruder isn't going to wait a few hours to end us. He insisted he'd check later so I decided to go check, I wouldn't be able to go back to sleep is someone didn't.

Our house is small, you can pretty much see the whole thing from the center. I glance around, both doors are locked and there's no one in the kitchen, livingroom, or office. Strange thing is that the bathroom door is closed. I always leave this door open overnight because we have a weirdly placed air vent in the bathroom that turns it into an icebox or oven if you leave the door closed.

At this point I'm spooked, especially because I have to open the bathroom door to check. I go into the kitchen, grab a knife, and prepare to open the door. I open it, see there is no one inside, and realize that the noise was caused by our shower caddy falling.

As I am making these realizations, there is a voice behind me. I scream, turn around and jab the knife forward. Turns out my fiancé decided to get up anyway and find out if I was okay. I definitely sliced his arm. Luckily it was extremely superficial and he was standing away enough that no vital organs are in range. Who sneaks up on someone in the middle of the night? Anyway, we definitely lost the rest of the night to the adrenaline of me getting spooked and him getting stabbed.

TL;DR My fiancé snuck up on me in the middle of the night while I was checking for an intruder and I got spooked and stabbed him in the arm.

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 sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
