TIFU by removing my earring too early

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 by not disabling an option in Windows that seemingly made my PC stutter for the last 3 years

I bought a pretty good PC in 2019 (2300 € of goodness) but, a few months after I installed it, the PC started to have, at random, small freeze for like a second, every 10 to 50 min for seemingly no reason. I did tons of benchmark, pretty much read every posts about "my PC is stuttering/freezing help meee" on the internet, called the After Sale number from where I bought the PC. Removing and putting the GPU back helped for a few weeks, but then back to square one. Checked the state of my disks, the ventirad, everything ! Restarting the PC made the stuttering stop for like 1 or 2 hours that's it. I had GPU-Z and CPUID monitor on all the time to check if anything happened, and weirdly enough, having those monitoring program open made the stuttering way weaker ! Drove me absolutely crazy. Then one or two weeks ago I saw a post on r/buildapc about Fast Startup option in Windows and how it was a good idea to disable it... So I did. Since then, nothing. No stuttering, no f...

TIFU while being spicy with my Gf

I 26M have a gf 22f. We enjoy sex with each other but wanted to spice it up as she wanted to try something new and I was all for it. She had me order cuffs, a blindfold, and a vibrating plug which I thought would be fun to try. I let her know when they arrived and a few days after they arrived she came over and we got ready. She had me out the cuffs on her and blind fold first before I did anything else, followed by getting the plug ready. I put what I thought was a good amount of lube on it as one does. Well sadly when I slowly put the plug in, it immediately went all the way in as off it was just sucked in followed by a loud “AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHGHHHHH” which my dumbass at first thought “Oh she must really like it!” Until i realized it was from pain. I started panicking for a second then realized she was in pain, blind folded, and handcuffed. When I asked if she wanted me to take them off she said no and just sat there for about another 5 minutes. It didn’t completely ruin our spicey t...

TIFU by not getting visual confirmation on the lube he was using

Obligatory not today, but I was talking with my ex (the counterpart in this story) and he said he was surprised I hadn’t written this post yet, and truthfully, he’s right. So I (30 at the time, F) and my boyfriend (29 at the time, M) had been dating for a few months and were honestly having a blast. Maybe too much fun. A lot of late nights out. Both very spontaneous people with a lot of social and sexual energy when together, the latter being an important component of this story. One night we had decided to go to one of our neighborhood spots and have a few drinks before heading back to his place. In our city there’s this local artist that creates these awesome vending machines full of unique shit, some of it’s as simple as a pair of earrings or a bag of tiny ducks, but the fun ones are these mystery packages. I always liked choosing the spirit animal ones cause those contain a tiny toy animal and a card with some relatively snarky description of why your lazy like a shark or whateve...
