TIFU telling my gf I screwed my friend

Throwaway

My 23M girlfriend 23F of 3 years and I were invited by the friend group to go out last night, she declined stating she wanted to stay in and told me to go have fun. I told her I’d be home by 11pm. We stayed out partying, having a fire, and talking. However once I got home - far too drunk and tired but coherent. I allegedly told her how I screwed our mutual friend before promptly falling asleep. This is not how I remember this conversation.

This morning I woke up to my girlfriend + her stuff gone, and a “I don’t want to see or hear from you ever again” text message. When I reached out to mutual friends - everyone was mad at me for cheating on her. Queue my confusion. I didn’t cheat on her. I tried explaining myself but nobody would listen. I tried reaching out to her but my phone number was blocked. Also found out I’ve been removed from almost all the group chats we had. I finally sent a text to her brother saying “this is what I meant when I said I screwed -insert friends name-“ with a video of me finding a screw on the ground and absolutely drilling it into my mates arm. He called me confused and I explained everything to him. How I told her that night “my love, I have the best pun for you. look at this, I screwed our friend” while pulling up the video. Apparently I fell asleep before my friend had finished sending me the video. He said he’d talk to her for me and sure enough, a few hours later she called me apologising.

I told her that she turned all of our friends against me without hearing the “pun” and she said she thought I was drunk and joking about the pun. Which I was drunk but not joking about the pun. She told me she didn’t want to tell our friend group that she had mistook my words because it was “embarrassing.” She didn’t want to tell everyone that I wasn’t a cheater out of embarrassment.

I sent the same text with the video to all of our friends, including the ones at the party. I also sent further screenshots of her saying she didn’t want to admit I wasn’t a cheater. Most apologised, some said it was my fault. Maybe it is. My issue isn’t her being upset about the pun, it’s the fact that she wouldn’t admit I wasn’t a cheater.

So that’s how my entire relationship dissolved over a pun.

TLDR; told my gf I had a pun to show her, fell asleep before my mate sent the video and she left before I could show her the video of said pun. Accused me of cheating and pit our entire friend group against me.

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...
