TIFU by ruining my boyfriend's and I's one year anniversary.

I, 24f and my boyfriend, 33m were planning on going out for our one year anniversary this Saturday. We had this whole day planned on going to the movies, going out to eat, and then going to this "Paranormal Cirque" thing later in the evening. We just had our first son together, and he is now a month old. My mom agreed to babysit him during the early part of the day (movie and lunch) and my dad agreed to babysit him during the evening (the paranormal cirque). All seemed good, we got the tickets and we were both excited. Today I realized having my dad babysit would be a terible idea due to the fact that my son has collic, like really bad in the evening and night time. Tonight he was so bad, nothing would calm him down, and he was crying to the point he was gagging himself. It got me so frustrated to the point I too started to cry and realized I could not have my dad babysit and how he would probably be miserable and how I put a burden on him by having to take care of a non-stop crying baby. My boyfriend eventually told me that we just wont go to the paranormal cirque, and that he will just refund the tickets. Well the tickets arent refundable and we paid $145.00 for them. I now feel like I ruined our anniversary by worrying too much about how my dad will feel with our baby, and I also now feel bad for my boyfriend because we wont have the whole fun day we had originally planned.

TL;DR: TIFU by having to cancel non refundable anniversary plans due to my constant worrying of my baby being too collicy for my dad.

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 ...
