TIFU by not looking properly at the door to the public bathroom

Well, it was really a few days ago, but still, I got told that the story was worth adding here.
(Sorry for any mistakes, English is not my first language and autocorrect is my best friend)

I (F27) was out shopping with my dad. All of a sudden I start feeling sick and I need a bathroom QUICK. So I run towards the bathrooms, just following the "toilet" signs. I rush in to the first bathroom I see and I make it just in time before I start throwing up. I'm squatted down on the floor and just begging for this to pass quickly. (Thankfully it was fully closed cubicles, no gaps)

I hear people come and go in to the bathroom, but I hear no voices and hope that they can't hear me either. I finally feel better, wipe my mouth, spit and flush one last time before I get out.

As I open the door from the cubicle I stare straight at the back of two men standing at the urinals and I fix my eyes hard on the floor and run for the door. I've NEVER felt that embarrassed in my whole life! I just hope that they didn't notice me.

Located the women's bathroom so I could clean up, but the embarrassment is still stuck with me.

​

TL;DR
Got sick in public and needed to throw up. Ran in to the first bathroom I saw and I found out after I was done that it was the men's room and I am indeed NOT a man.

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 ...
