TIFU by saying no to a game

TIFU by not standing by my gf

So, this happened last night actually, but I digress. My (28m) gf (28f) and I went to Universal Studios for a friend's bday. We were having a good time going through the mazes. Then, we decide to check out the Mummy ride. And that's where shit goes downhill.

We spent about an hour and some change waiting in line. Finally, we make it to the front. The ride seats 4 people a row, so it's me, my gf, and two of her friends. GF goes first, and I decide to be a gentleman and let her friends get seated before me. So, the seats are as follows. Me, FRIEND, FRIEND, GF.

There's just one problem, my GF can't get her seat restrainer all the way down. Yes, after the events, she disclosed to me that she's pushing 300 and has never felt so big. After a minute of trying to get it down, the operator tells her that she's gotta come off so the ride can go. She obliges.

The other problem is that I'm locked in my seat, and can't be by her side. I'm bad with social cues, but I know I should've spoken up and asked to be let off too(For the record, the ride wasn't worth the wait). What drives me even crazier is that I had her phone on me for safe-keeping. So in that moment, I know she must've really felt by herself.

After the ride, I'm panicking looking for her, and find her crying on the bench. I tell her how sorry I am, and she tells me how embarrassing that was for her. It doesn't help that she's recently told me that she doesn't like how she looks. I really can't imagine how that must've felt. I just wish I could redo that moment and just be beside her.

TL;DR My gf was too big to get on a ride, and I deeply regret not getting off and being with 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 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 making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
