TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by not socializing my dog to wheelchairs

Happened today. My sweet 3-year-old rough collie, Mimi, is an absolute sweetheart. I got her as a puppy at 10-weeks, and read all about socializing them as much as possible when they’re young. So that’s what we did. Big dogs, small dogs, kids, people with beards, guys, gals, kids, puppies, old dogs, cats—I tried to cover it all. (For you puppy owners out there, don’t do this until they’ve had their shots!)

And it worked! She’s a spunky, chill girl, and even tries to make friends with dogs that actively snarl at her lol. She goes up to everyone on walks, tail always wagging, because she loves people. She’s a sweetheart.

… unless they’re in wheelchairs. I live in a city, and was going to get ice cream with a friend. I tied up my dog outside the store, and proceed to go inside to order. Within five minutes, I hear DEEP barks. Now my dog barks, but not like that. She has a relatively light bark, unless something is seriously wrong. So the moment I hear it, I tell the cashier to wait a sec as I run outside to see what’s going on.

And she’s barking, tail between her legs, LOUDLY, at a guy being pushed in a wheelchair (by what I assume to be) his partner. That’s when it dawned on me. She had never seen a wheelchair.

I rush over to my dog, apologizing profusely. They don’t seem too bothered by it, sorta awkwardly laughing. The lady proceeds to push the wheelchair past us, and as she does, smiles, looks at Mimi and says “it’s okay, it’s okay, he doesn’t like it either!” <\3

I felt so embarrassed. So, if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix an ableist dog, I’m all ears

TL/DR Didn’t expose my dog to wheelchairs. Proceeded to bark profusely at a nice couple, one of whom was in a wheelchair.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
