TIFU by mentioning to my friend the price of the tickets for a concert we would attend (before actually buying them)

A couple weeks ago I asked my friend (we're both 20) if she wanted to attend a kpop group's concert with me June next year. We like the group a lot and it's gonna be their first time in our country.

Today I decided to see if the tickets were already being sold, and to my surprise some of the options were already sold out, so I decided I had to buy them now. From the very beginning my idea was paying for both tickets.

I decided to confirm with her if she still wanted to go. She said yes, and said that she would pay me back later on, which I refused.

I ended up mentioning the price of the tickets (cheapest option being around $130 USD, (EDIT: Around $130 each) over half a month of minimum wage here), and she thought the price was too high. Now she no longer wants to go, even if I pay for the tickets.

She was willing to go, but after knowing the price she changed her mind. I should have just bought the tickets beforehand and given to her, I can't do this now, I don't wanna pressure her into going.

I'm still going to the concert, but alone, which sucks. I wanted to have this experience with her. We're planning to do something cheaper together soon though.

TL;DR I was planning going to a concert with my friend. She knew I would pay for both our tickets, but she changed her mind after I told her how expensive the tickets are. I should've bought them before.

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 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 ...
