TIFU by accidently creeping out a girl

So for context, I'm in the first year of uni and for freshers, my uni has organised like a bar night. Initially, I went with my friends but we got split up when we went to get drinks. Before that we were in like an outdoor area, and the entrance to the bar kinda cuts into the middle of the queue for the bar so I ended up pushing into the queue in front of a girl with no friends in sight.

I immediately profusely apologised and offered to give the spot back but she insists its alright so I instead offered to get her a drink. She refused initially but I insisted out of guilt (keep in mind the queue at this point is at least 15-20 mins from beginning to end). The convo went well but about halfway through the queue she asked for my number, which was the first time a girls asked for my number proactively (obviously I was very flattered at the time). I gave her my phone, she entered her contacts and asked me to text her so she can add mine back.

I then realised that due to where the bar is and the side that I'm standing on, I'm gonna have to order the drinks for us both and I'm like the most awkward person alive when I'm ordering literally anything especially when I don't know what I want nor do I know what they're offering. So I had the bright idea of offering to buy her the drink if she could order for us both since I have quite bad social anxiety. She expressed serious doubt when I proposed it and asked if I was just rich (I assume she thought I was trying to show off) to wish I said "even if I was skint I would still pay someone to order for me" then she proceeded to order the drink, I pulled out my ID and paid for it. Then we sat down with my friends and had a merry chat with them. I didn't talk with her much after that except for borrowing her coat cause I forgot mine and we were sitting outside and it was absolutely freezing.

My question here is, did she think i was like a creep trying to hit on her or spike her drink or something, cause she made a point to make sure she had my number on her phone after which she briefly texted someone. Was she texting a friend my number and told them to give it to the cops if she didn't check in with them after x time or something? Was I too insistent on paying for her drinks made it creepy/showoffy?

TL;DR: my awkward ass was too insistent on buying a girl a drink and probably creeped her out.

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 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 ...
