TIFU by telling my girlfriend I would probably do bad things in Westworld.

My girlfriend asked me if I would do bad things in Westworld. I won't go into what exactly she asked because there are certain rules in this sub reddit, but she basically asked me if I would do bad things. The conversation took place via WhatsApp.
I've only seen the first episode of Westworld so far, but from my understanding, it's a game world where you can do whatever you want as a human in god mode, almost like GTA only that you're inside as a real person.

I thought about it for a second and thought to myself "Okey, so the last time I played GTA I did bad things there too. Now the game is just more realistic. Would I still do bad things? I don't know. I probably would." Then I answered her in roughly the same way.

She then asked a few times for details. But I didn't realize that she was upset. I thought she was just asking out of interest. While I was chatting with her, I played a game on the side. I tried to imagine what it would be like in Westworld. Then the question came up of what I would do if I were God in real life. I just answered: I have no idea.

Suddenly she starts insulting me and ends the relationship, blocking me everywhere. We had only been together for two months, but I actually thought it was going reasonably well. I really didn't expect that. She actually meant a lot to me. And now it's just over. And even if she comes back to me: the way she insulted me, I don't think we can work things out again.

TL;DR: My girlfriend broke up with me because I thoughtlessly said that I would probably do bad things in Westworld.

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 ...
