TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU By giving a girl a high-five.

Since this is RIF's last day here and so will be mine on Reddit here is an event that happened years ago.

My (now ex ) wife and I were at the Renaissance Festival for the weekend and stayed until they were closing. Now by nature I am an introvert, I like not socializing with people or really hanging out with anyone. That is until I had a full bottle of mead to myself. So we started working our way out of the festival and back to camp, I thought it would be fun to start skipping a long and giving anyone I could a high five. After a few minutes I lost track of my wife and went to look for her, I saw that she was near a couple of women that were sitting down on a bench. I attempted to skip over to her and saw she was bent over and talking to them. And super drunk me not taking half a second to read the situation I reached down with my palm out aggressively and yelled "High-five!", The girl I was gesturing to did not respond, and the woman next to her wasn't paying attention. I kept bobbing up and down and from what I recall only managed to say "No high-five?" Before my wife gave her a hug and we left. Only then did I notice the girl had her head buried into her hands, and my wife then telling me as we left that she just found out her sister died. Needless to say I don't skip anymore after that.

TL;DR - I tried to drunkenly high-five a girl who just found out her sister died.

Goodbye Reddit, it's been swell mostly lurking over the decade or so.

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. ...
