TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by saying I might want a prenup to my fiancé

We had been engaged 4 months and things were going great. Literally the best relationship I’ve ever had. Ironically just this morning we were talking about how strong we were and don’t have any issues like other couples seem to have.

I had mentioned we should talk about future financial planning, she has said the other times I brought this up that she wants she would rather wait until we are actually married. Then she asked what’s the difference if we wait until then? I said about what happens if it doesn’t work out? Then she asked if so I meant a prenup and I hesitantly well I would like to keep my house. Over the next 5 minutes she went from “I’m fine” to “I can’t marry you” and now I have a month to move out (my place is rented out on the other side of the country, we live in her place where I contribute to the mortgage).

For perspective, we have roughly the same assets (a house and car each), and I made a bit more than her and have more savings.

Her perspective is it’s horrible of me to ask this of her, it shows I don’t trust her, I don’t really love her, I’m selfishly that kind of person who only cares about protecting my stuff, so it’s not like a real family. And I didn’t consider how it would affect her to ask this of her. She feels extremely insulted and the fact that I might consider this is a big offense to her.

I feel horrible, I didn’t realize it was going to be interpreted like this and it doesn’t mean any of those things. I had been divorced before and didn’t have a prenup, and my ex wife didn’t take anything she didn’t earn. That make things even worse.

I’m a crazy planner and when reading about planning for the future, it was mentioned about also having a plan for if things don’t work out. So I rolled those up into my plans. I wasn’t dead set or strongly stating I have to have one. From the research I did, it seemed just like something you do if you have assets before marriage.

And I said as much after this altercation that I don’t need one forget I said it. But it’s too late now, I have revealed what kind of person I am. I can’t take it back.

So I have a month to move out. I’m oscillating between numbness and having a full on panic attack. I love this girl more than anything. I’d take a bullet for her. I feel like my life is over. Our dog the only thing keeping me calm now. Well technically her dog so I’ll lose that too.

TL;DR, I mentioned about a possibility of a prenup to my fiancé of 4 months. She was extremely hurt and offended. Call off marriage and is giving me a month to move 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. ...
