TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by not impulsively spending $135

My husband is a huge Metallica fan, he’s also a Swiftie. Over the last couple months we’ve been dealing with the TS album drop and ticket nonsense, and I learned that if I see anything drops in her online store that I think hubby will like that I should purchase it right away because if I think about it for even a minute the item will be sold out.

Cue this morning. Husband is at work and I got the email about the new Metallica album and tour. I immediately forward it to hubby and go check everything out. I have the fifth member exclusive vinyl in my cart as well as the smokey black and the “discounted” t-shirt.

No reply from hubby yet, so I go check out the shows and ticket options. I send him a long text explaining what shows we’ll probably try for and apologize for bugging him.

I check my cart again and see the total, and really I’m only wondering if he wants two of the non-fifth member colored vinyls (to keep one wrapped). I decided to shower before placing the order.

While showering I keep getting anxiety about how TS’s vinyls dropped and sold out immediately.

I get out of the shower and my cart is empty.

The fifth member exclusive is sold out and I can still get the other colored vinyl, but shipping would be 80% the price of the record. ($30 ish no matter the order size).

Now I’m all bummed out that I failed to get something I know he would’ve wanted, and I really don’t want to just order one record for $67.

I hope they do another drop for the yellow spattered exclusive, but knowing my stupidity I’ll wait too long to order it and miss out again.

Hopefully I don’t screw up getting him concert tix.

TL:DR I had a limited edition vinyl my husband would love to have in my cart ready to buy but I didn’t let my normal impulsive spending take over and it sold out.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean 😏 Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
