TIFU By asking my sister why she hates our mom

So my mom asked my Sister ( we'll call her sarah) if she wanted to go to the fair today and she said no. I got on the phone and was like don't be a loser just go and bring your daughters. Sarah then proceeds to text me "I can't believe you I don't really like hanging out with mom". I'm like I love our mother wtf is wrong with you. She then says she is always so negative towards me etc.

I explain like yes she's our mom and is going to call us out on our bullshit its what a loving mother would do what is the problem. I keep gassing Sarah up defending my mom as anyone would.

She then proceeds to tell me that when she was 11 our Mom tried to sell her to some guy. I'm like what?!?! I told her it was bullshit and she would never do that. She said ask our step dad he knows about it. (Some context my mom ended up dating our future step dad who worked at a radio station at the time and that will come into play later.) I'm like how he didnt come into our lives until I was 7 so this is bullshit. she said he would bring her flowers and teddy bears and call the radio station all the time requesting songs for my sarah. So my step dad allegedly would play the songs that he requested all the time. Sarah said as time went by she said there was a point where my mom was like you're going to go with this guy and live with him and you can't come back.

She then proceeds to tell me that this is why she hates our mom and wants her out of her life. So what the hell do I do because I don't believe it and i'm kind of scared to ask around.

More context we're a lot older now Sarah is 37 years old and i'm 31.

TL;DR Asked my sister to go to the fair with our mom and in return told me she tried to sell her when young.

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...
