TIFU by reading my (now) ex-gf's diary

Hello everyone, I fucked up big time today and I feel like shit.

I was dating this girl for a year, when she suddenly cheated on me with a friend ("just a kiss"). She begged me to take her back as it didn't mean anything to her, while the guy was still living in the same student dorm. I accepted her and took her back, then we broke up again because she just realized she didn't love me or something. We still got back together a couple weeks later. So the past 3 weeks have been working out stuff for us, I still had some bad moments with trust but was ok. When I was at her place today I found her diary on the night stand.

So I looked inside and found out that even before she cheated, she wrote a lot of times (over the course of 2 months) she loved me in her "own way" or also as a friend? And she fell in love with this guy. And even before they kissed she wrote about how she would love that to happen and how much she can only think of him. After we broke up theres 2 weeks of her writing about missing him and me (more him), and saying herself shes ok with loving us both.

So I told her and she went all about how she didnt mean anything she wrote, those were just random thoughts and nothing she really feels or desires. We broke up 2 days ago and I feel like shit, like I'm not any better than her for breaching her privacy or snooping around. I'm sad about losing a close person, a "friend", but I feel like it's good this relationship is over. But I feel so bad knowing that now she hates me for doing that and I always thought that I would be a better person than her. Like I knew it was wrong to do it but I did it anyways, just as she did when she cheated on me.

And also, when we talked about it, she kept saying that she didn't mean a single word she wrote in there. That she felt nothing when she cheated on me and afterwards realized she didn't feel anything about him. She was so confident, I feel like I have to believe it. But then again, why would she continue writing about him if she felt nothing? Who would write out fantasies long after they happened?

TL;DR. Read my girlfriends diary, found out that she may been lying to me for a long time, had to break up with her and hate myself for being a shitbag like her.

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 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 ...
