TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

Post a Comment

TIFU by texting my girlfriend's mom about marriage.

Just happened an hour ago... ruined it.

I've finally come to the decision to marry my gf. I started setting up my squad of minions to do my bidding in masterplanning a marvelous surprise proposal. Got my sister activated. The cousin was initiating the mission on point. I was about to onboard her sister and another cousin. The battlefield was looking tight.

Meanwhile I figured I'd talk to her mom first because there are some big challenges: they live in SE Asia and we live on the West Coast or US, and the distance has been the source of a lot of emotional nights.

So I message my gf's cousin to translate my intention and the question about my concerns on distance from them. Smooth. Got the translation and read it a bit myself and hit send yesterday around 2pm. The time distance is such that it was around 6 or 7am where the mom lives, so I had about 2 or 3 hours to wait. 5pm rolls around my time and I see the message has been read. So I imagined she would respond soon - nope. I get a little sinking feeling that maybe it was too direct and blunt... I wake up to work the next day and still no response. Then I'm checking my phone through the day - still nothing.

I got home from work today and start checking slyly to see if my gf has talked with her family members. As soon as I mention her mom, her face curls up like a kid loving their birthday cake trying to look cool.

That woman snitched. Her mother snitched and told my gf! I didn't even finish finding a gem and ring.

Icing on the cake: her dad messages her right as she reveals her mom as the snitch, "so what's the wedding going to be like".

My whole plan, destroyed. I got Trojan-horsed. Who does that?! These things are secrets! And then I look back at the message and realized I never said it was in the translation. So, I guess I played myself. Idk how to recover from this now. So many days scheming and energy invested..gone.

TLDR; I asked my gf's mom in SE Asia about marrying her daughter and forgot to translate to keep it a secret. She snitched to her daughter and ghosted my LINE message. Surprise planned destroyed.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean 😏 Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
