TIFU by pranking a friend into thinking that someone she's a huge fan of messaged her. [UPDATE]

Welp.... I bring unfortunate news.

In my last post, I had updated by saying that I was following what someone suggested and getting in touch with the VA.

Which was a great idea! They had a cameo! I paid the extra fee to get it express done within 24 hours!

24 hours has come and gone.... let's just say I better get my fucking money back.

So I was going to go back to plan A:

Giving appropriate apologies since things cooled down.

Come to find out.... I'm blocked. Which... sure did sting. I had hoped that we could have at least talked about it.... but I suppose I'm not entitled to her time.

I really didn't think something like that would do this much damage, else I never would have done it. But oh well, not much I can do about it now.

I suppose all I can really do now is maybe hope that she's just want to take some time away from me before talking about it, but I guess that's wishful thinking.

I had taken note though that she unfollowed me on Twitter but she didn't block me. So that's why I'm holding on to hope that she wants to talk eventually. That has to be her choice, not mine. So I'm not going to DM her on twitter.

Getting that message from that VA sure likely would have helped, buuuuuuut fuck me >:(

So I guess the best I can do now is maybe talk to a mutual friend to let her know how sorry I am and then just leave her alone and let HER decide if she ever wans anything to do with me without any extra intrusion beyond that.

Her having any more involvement with me has to be HER decision. I can't force her, and I'm not going to try. I think I've done enough.

The prank would have been funny in my personal friend group, but I should have realized that different friends have different boundaries. What would have been funny in my friend group likely wouldn't be funny to her.

Not to make this about me or to throw a pity party for myself, but I don't have many friends :(

It's just... depressing how quickly this all happened. So little communication. Absolutely zero chance to make it right. But I suppose I'm not entitled to that chance I guess.

Realistically, even if I did nothing to her and she had just decided she doesn't want anything to do with me, who am I to say otherwise?

TL;DR title story happened, friend is super upset to the point of immediately blocking me. Fuck why am I like this

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...
