TIFU by saying no to a game

TIFU By Calling My Boyfriend

So I (20F) and my bf (20M) have been dating for a year and a half, things have been perfect except for one thing, he comes from a culture where it’s forbidden to date so his parents don’t know I exist (his siblings and cousins know though). I personally have had no issue with this as I’m a pretty chill person and im new to relationships so im just not ready to meet someone’s parents (though I want him to meet mine and plans too soon).

We have one rule in the relationship: don’t call him when he is home.

So here is what happened, he called me at 7:45PM seeing if I wanted to chat but I was out with my mom so I told him “I’ll call you when I’m home” and he said “okay”. When my mom dropped me off she reminded me to call him, as I’m very forgetful due to medication. So at 8:10PM I arrived home and called him. He didn’t answer. At 8:13PM I get this message “my dad picked the phone up”. He is furious and doesn’t want me to say one more word to him saying “I told you to never fucking call me at home” and he threaten to block me everywhere/ break up.

We’ve had a perfect relationship so far and I love him with all my heart, but I can’t believe I fucked up so badly by breaking the one boundary we have set in place. So I feel like an absolute a-hole, and it’s 9:56PM and I haven’t stopped crying.

TL;DR I called my boyfriend while he was at home and his strict Muslim father saw me calling, and now he is in serious trouble even though we agreed to call.

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...
