TIFU by offering a sweat-covered candy to a girl.

So I (26F) have been going to the same gym for about a little over a year now. During this time I befriended one of the girls who happen to work out at the same time as I do. Part of this friendship is a stupid game I play with her by hiding those little paper-wrapped candies in one of my two hands and she guesses in which hand it might be (I give it to her either way). The thing is, I keep these candies in my pocket and I usually see her before I work out. This time, I didn't see her until I finished my workout. I did our stupid game and gave it to her. As soon as she touched it, she dropped it on the bench next to her, buried her head in her phone, and started to act standoffish. I didn't think much about it but some moments later it dawned on me. I had just had the most vigorous workout I have had in a while (160-180 BPM for 45mins) with this paper-wrapped candy in my freaking pocket and it must've been soggy as all hell by the time I handed it to her. All I wanna do rn is bury my head in the sand.

TL;DR: gave a girl a paper-wrapped candy that had been in my pocket for an entire 45min workout and she was rightfully disgusted.

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 ...
