TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by preventing a child from being adopted, possibly forever

This literally just happened now, and I’m still kind of feeling as if it’s not real. I work as a caretaker in an orphanage, this is my third month and I’m still learning the ropes. I work with abandoned kids every day, and we have learned that one of the boys was in the process of adoption. I was so happy about him because he’s very gentle and kind, and unlike other children we have has qualities such as empathy and high intelligence that could get him far in life.

One day as I was working other kids followed me and asked about the traveling coffer. I absent-mindedly said the boy is getting adopted, figuring it’s a sealed deal, not knowing any legal background behind adoption. This is where my fuck-up happened.

Apparently, and I was not aware of this, adoption is kept secret from biological parents who have basically lost all right to their child. Other kids have told the boy he’s getting adopted, and he probably told his grandma when he was away for the weekend.

As a consequence, they filed a complaint against the adoption process (again, it’s their legal right), and it was cancelled. He was literally supposed to be adopted in few days. I am broken, and I simply don’t know what to think. Honestly, I think I will quit this job, but I’m still waiting to see what will happen.

TL;DR

I absent-mindedly told the orphanage boy he’s getting adopted, his family learned and stopped the process.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
