TIFU by not clearing my search history

I work at a bar. Recently, a new girl started. She’s pretty and we got on well. After her first shift, I did some fairly extensive stalking to find out if she was single or not. This involved finding her Facebook and then her instagram handle through a reel that had been cross posted to Facebook. Her insta was on private so I didn’t find anything out.

Anyway, fast forward to the latest and my final shift at the bar. I established through conversation that she is, indeed, single. I used Spotify Blend (great feature btw) as a reason to exchange contact details.

I said “how shall I send you the link?”. “Insta!” She replied.

I confidently opened insta on my phone and handed it over.

“Have you been stalking me?” She exclaimed. Her insta handle was the last search.

I said something like “ah fuck” and we both laughed about it, but it was super embarrassing and I think it probably ruined any chances I had. Even if it didn’t though, I was so off my game because of that. Later on as I was leaving, I said she should hit me up to go bouldering. She heard bowling, and said she wasn’t very good. I was already out the door so I couldn’t correct her.

So TLDR is I stalked my work mate that I barely knew, let her see that I’d stalked her, then accidentally asked her to do something that is not at all a reflection of what I’d actually want to do.

I’m probably gonna send a message tomorrow to try clear up the last bit and apologise for the stalking, but I’m not sure yet. I might also just leave it and chalk it up as experience.

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 ...
