TIFU by letting my housemate's cat in my room while changing

Background: my housemate has a few cats and one of them always wants to hang out in my room with me. He's a chill cat and makes a good study buddy, so I'll usually let him into my room in the mornings and then he'll keep me company during my morning study session. My bedroom is on the first floor and has a big window that takes up most of one wall and faces a busy street. The window is covered by one of those shades that you pull down to engage the locking mechanism, but then also pull down to un-engage the locking mechanism. There is also a dangling piece of string attached to the shade so you can easily pull it down. Also, the building across from me is under construction and the workers tend to pass my building on their way to work.

So cut to this morning. I wake up, shower, and go back to my room to change. My housemate's cat starts meowing at my door and I let him inside. It's important to note that I left my window open overnight with the shade down to let cool air in, but that also means the window shade was kinda swaying from the breeze. Unfortunately, the wind made the piece of string look extra enticing to my little friend and he pounces onto the string, pulling the shade down. The shade snaps up and the noise makes me drop my towel. As luck would have it, a construction crew is passing by right at that moment. I lock eyes with one dude and watch as his eyes scan downward. I drop to the floor, crawl behind the side my bed, and sit there for a good 20 minutes contemplating how much it would cost to move into my own place and why I don't go to the gym more.

TL;DR cat opens window shade, I flash a group of dudes

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 ...
