TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by slicing my finger open on a date.

It's been a while since I've been on a date. A friend of a friend, who I've had a crush on for a while, asked me if I'd like to have dinner and maybe a few drinks last week, and I said yes, Sunday evening would be great.

I'm 31 but I felt like I was 16 again. Got my hair and nails done, my best makeup, a nice dress, heels, sexy underwear, etc. He'd booked a posh steakhouse for dinner - it was slightly low-lit for ambience and even the cutlery was all swoopy and wavy.

Anyway we ordered our meals, both having steaks (obviously) and when my food arrived, I went to pick up a potato with my fork and accidentally pinged it off my plate and onto the floor. A little embarrassing, but we both laughed it off, I picked it up and set it aside. Okay so far.

Well, internally I was a bit flustered and wasn't thinking straight. So, I didn't look twice at this fancy wavy cutlery.

I went to cut my steak and didn't notice I was holding the knife upside down. Well, without getting too graphic, you can imagine what happened. Something that's designed to cut cooked meat also does very well at cutting uncooked meat.

It was instantly noticeable and there was no way I could play it off. I'm cringing writing this now, but as soon as my date noticed my mild panic, he yelled for help. Two servers looked over, saw me trying to cover up a pretty deep cut, and rushed over with a first aid kit. I asked if I could go somewhere a little more private rather than in what was pretty much the middle of this restaurant, which the staff happily obliged.

They called an ambulance and off I went to A&E. My date came with me, stayed for the 4 hours I was in hospital, but when we got a taxi, he said he'd see me home first, then take the cab back to the restaurant car park to pick up his car and go home.

Anyway, long story short, here I am now with 3 strappy stitchy things on my finger, blood on my dress, a disastrous date and a few weeks of being grumpy.

TLDR: I went on a date, didn't know how to use a knife, cut my finger open requiring 3 stitches, the date was a disaster and now I am sad.

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...
