TIFU by being too friendly

I’ve been a frequent customer at a 7/11 near my job and I’ve gotten pretty cool with the staff. Three employees in particular because they are usually the ones on shift during the times I visit.

Let’s call the two employees in this story Ashley and Brittney for names sake. I went in the store and Ashley was working that day. Ashley another customer and me got into a conversation about kids and marriage. The other customer was in front of me and she leaves after she pays for her items. So it’s just me and Ashley now and I continue with the conversation by asking Ashley a few questions. I asked her did she want kids and she replies “One day her and her wife want kids”. I then ask her how long she’s been married and did they have a nice honeymoon since her marriage was recent. She answered those two questions and then asked me why am I being so personal (very aggressively). She was visibly upset so I apologized and attempted to explain I didn’t meant anything by it and thought it was regular conversation. I do wanna put out there Ashley has asked me personal questions in previous visits so I was confused as to why she took offense to me asking the questions I asked. Especially since they were in context of the topic we were discussing when the other customer was present.

Fast forward to yesterday I visit the store and Brittney is working that day (Brittney is a stud lesbian and my apologies if my terms out offensive but I’m not sure how else to describe her). Brittney greets me as usual and when I went to check out she says angrily “Are you the one who asking my wife all those personal questions about how long we’ve been married”? I responded yes it was me and I didn’t mean anything by it. I said I thought I was just making conversation. She then proceeds to tell me that that’s her wife and she figured it was me asking awkwardly. I reiterated that in my mind I was just being friendly since I had gotten familiar with them over the last few months and had no idea they were married.

I awkwardly waited to pay for my stuff and proceeded to leave. I was also on the phone with my fiancée during this whole ordeal. We both agreed my friendliness was mistakenly taken as flirty. Needless to say I wont being going back after that awkward encounter.

TLDR; Got pressed by lesbian today for attempting to make small talk with her wife.

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 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 ...
