TIFU by saying no to a game

TIFU by trusting my husband's ability to diagnose my cat

So I just commented it on another user's TIFU and I thought I'd share it here because this story makes me laugh to this day. Obligatory not today.

Some background:

When I met my husband, I'd already had my cats for a year and a half. Before these two furballs, I'd only had dogs, so I had a lot of learning to do after a lifetime of being around dogs.

My husband was the same, he even claimed to hate cats due to a past experience - when he lived with his ex, she had brought in her long neglected family cat (whom she continued to neglect) who was very prone to biting people's ankles and very averse to being pet.

First time he went home with me, my girl cat (Oli) fell head over heels for him, to the point she would jump over me to get to his lap, cuddle with him everytime she could, sleep on top of his clothes, etc.

With my male cat Pepe was a whole different story tho, he's the sweetest boy, but very very shy.

So now to the story:

Almost 3 years into our relationship, we were watching a movie together and he was petting Oli. Then Pepe gets on the couch next to him and he starts petting him too - a very magical moment, as Pepe was starting to trust him! So I went to make some popcorn in the kitchen, letting them have their moment, when he starts shouting for me to come back.

I rush to the living room, he had this sad and serious look on his face, he says to me "futato... I was petting Pepe's belly, I found some growths... I think they might be tumours". So I rush to grab my phone, so I can send a pic to my vet and I ask him to show me. Two of my dogs had had tumours before, so this got me fairly worried.

He guides my hand on her belly, trying to find the spot underneath all that fur... And I find it.

It was his nipple. A perfectly normal cat nipple. He didn't know male cats had nipples.

EDIT: I wrote titty instead of nipple, fixed it now!

TL/DR: husband got me worried by diagnosing my male cat with tumours, turns out it was just his nipples.

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...
