TIFU by saying I love you.

I was previously in a long term relationship where saying “I love you” was the norm.

However I’ve tried my best to not use the word with the person I’m currently seeing - they’re just a cool friend.

After sleeping with them, I was kind of doozy and accidentally said “I love you” - a bad habit!

When I said this, they instantly started tearing up and started telling me that they love me too.

I was about to explain that it was a mistake but they just kept cutting me off with phrases like “I’ve loved you ever since I saw you”, “Thanks for giving me a chance, I want to spend every waking hour with you” etc.

I was super flattered but I’m just not that much into them!

I became so confused in the heat of the moment I didn’t even clarify it.

I’m planning to tell them the truth tonight and I have no idea how this will play out.

TL;DR - I said I love you to a fwb but I didn’t mean it.

Edit: I just texted him to meet me in person later on in the day 😬 he responded with “okay see you later bub”.

Edit2: I got fed up of the pet names so I told him to stop. He asked if something is wrong, so I told him the truth over text: - I don’t know how to feel about using the L word and that I said it accidentally.

He apologised and arranged an apology dinner.

Somehow I’m kinda turned on and scared at the same time that he literally took it laughingly and stopped with the lovey dovey stuff instantly like he didn’t mean anything he said earlier.

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 ...
