TIFU by not wearing a mask in public for the first time

I have been so careful. Call it what it is - I'm one of the few pple in 2022 still masking everywhere and using hand sanitizer where ever available. Yes I count, at the gym less than 5% have masks, at the grocery store less than 5% have mask, at the airport less than 5% have masks, at an arena only like 1% have masks. I haven't been on an airplane or traveled since pandemic started in 2020. Then this month, I finally decided to travel (for work), my first time traveling, again being super careful. Everyone I interacted with at work gets daily tested. Obviously can't test everyone in public areas. 2 days after I get back, immediately test positive for COVID, and I get hit hard even being triple vaxxed.

Insane, I know friends/family who stopped wearing masks a year ago, have been on like 10+ vacations, 20+ flights, go out to eat all the time since 2021, and only caught COVID like once and it wasn't until like months after this behavior started.

tl;dr first time since pandemic started I relaxed a bit, immediately caught COVID19

//EDIT: BTW - this post isn't so much of a vent that I actually got COVID19, I'm 100% sure I'm eventually going to get it, along with most everyone else. This post is more of a vent how literally the FIRST time I traveled and the FIRST time I put my mask down for couple days I got COVID19, like it couldn't be like 10x I traveled?

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 ...
