TIFU dafür dass ich damals bescheuert war?

TIFU by putting my face in my Grindr profile

Well this is what I get for experimenting sexually with my partner. A few months ago, my (21M) girlfriend (19F) admitted to being turned on at the thought of watching me with other people. Since March, we’ve only fooled around with one other person, who is her roommate. Now, being bi-curious, I proposed to my girlfriend that I do things with a guy in front of her and she was all for it. As a result, one fateful evening, I downloaded the best app for such an occasion; Grindr. Without thinking, I put a picture of my face on my profile without thinking much of it. As you all ought to be expecting at this point, this was my fuck-up. One coworker of mine, “James”, is openly gay. (Should also be noted that my girlfriend and I work together) Now, prior to this incident, I was under the assumption that James had a boyfriend. It wasn’t until I pulled up to work for the day that I saw his face in one of the profiles. Immediately my stomach sank and I blocked him, hoping, PRAYING that he didn’t see me on that app. All goes well until another coworker of ours, “Maddison”, approached me in private and says “Hey so… James says that he saw you on Grindr?” Uh oh. So, within a few minutes, not only did James recognize me on the app, but he also told some of our coworkers? My girlfriend, of course, finds the situation hilarious and plans to play it out as if she didn’t know what was going on. I, on the other hand, am having a bit of a heart attack as some of my friends think I’m trying to have an illicit gay affair behind my girlfriend’s back. I guess only time will tell how this whole mess turns out. I think I’m gonna avoid experimenting with guys for the foreseeable future, though. TL:DR; I used my face in my Grindr profile and my coworker thinks I’m cheating on my girlfriend.

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 getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
