TIFU for holding a seat for (44m) my wife (47f).

TIFU when my wife (47f) ordered a new office chair for her SAO work space. Unfortunately they sent the wrong seat cushion for the chair she ordered. I (44m) tried to assemble the chair for her but the screw holes on the seat cushion were too far apart for the screw holes on the arm rest.

Now I had been following the directions until now and have already inserted the lift into the seat cushion and we needed to pull it apart to return the wrong seat cushion. I gripped the seat cushion while my wife gripped the wheel base. She unfortunately did not brace herself as she pulled, and when it popped off she fall backwards. Onto the corner of a step stool.... the corner.... She screamed as loud as when she broke her ankle. Unfortunately she also screamed that she broke her ass and I couldn't help but giggle.

I am forever ashamed for the giggles. She had to work on her old chair all day and her bruise on her ass is unfortunately huge. Hopefully her ass heals soon and her forgiveness comes even sooner.

TL;DR: Held the base of a chair to disconnect it only for my wife to fall and bruise her ass.

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 ...
