TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by almost ruining someone’s wedding.

I’m really bad at cutting to the chase and adding extraneous details, so I’ll make sure to add a TL;DR at the end.

My cousin (basically sister) has 3 kids, the youngest just turned 4. When I asked what to get her, I got a very sad story about a sparkly flamingo at a gas station, lots of disappointment involved. I was able to find it online, and was very excited to be able to reunite her with the beloved flamingo that got away.

This was a surprise party at a park on a lake, but at the last minute I got an update that the party was moved to the pavilion on the hill above the beach rather than the beach itself. It was really cold that day, so that made sense. I was having trouble with the battery in the key fob on my car, so I was running late and kind of frazzled.

Now, I love getting toys for both my son and my nieces and nephews, and I always come up with a fun way to give them. I had a 30 minute drive to the party to come up with an idea on how to give the flamingo. I decided I’d find a video with flamingo sounds on YouTube and blast it on my sound system and be like, “OH, MY GOD! IS THAT A FLAMINGO?!?!” and make a big deal of searching for the flamingo in my car with the kids.

So, I pulled up, shut off my car, hid the flamingo, then went to turn my car back on, and it wouldn’t start. Crap. Key fob was officially dead. I thought maybe I could use my cousin’s car though, so I went to find her in the group under the pavilion and I’m seeing lots of unfamiliar faces. Everyone also seemed strangely overdressed for a 4 y/o’s birthday party.

The wedding was just starting, guys. I misread the update. Turns out the pavilion got double-booked, and my cousin was like, “Ok, the wedding obviously gets priority over a small birthday party for a 4 y/o.” She moved the party to her house, which was also on the lake, so I didn’t have too far to walk.

Imagine if my car would have started though. I only turned it off because I was kind of frazzled and wasn’t thinking. I mean, they already seemed very unimpressed by just me showing up by mistake and the little disruption that caused. I fully intended on blasting a flamingo call and dramatically announcing that I think there’s a flamingo somewhere in my car as an entrance. Can you imagine a complete stranger interrupting your wedding like that? Thank god.

TL;DR, I almost interrupted a wedding with flamingo noises because I thought it was my niece’s birthday party.

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...
