TIFU by belly flopping into a pool

I (m 25) was out with some friends at a bar, we were having a good time and one of my friends started talking to a group of hot girls next to us. They came over and eventually we all hung out together and were enjoying the night.

One of my friends asked if the girls played any sports and one of the girls said that two of them were into diving.

When i heard this i laughed a bit and made a comment along the lines of "comon, diving isnt a real sport". This lead to a heated argument between us where the girls were trying to convince me it was and me saying that its not and that "anyone can learn to dive".

Eventually we moved on and thought nothing of it. The next day, i was at out local pool there to get some laps in (just picked up swimming) and i see one of the girls from the bar there!

I tried to look away but she sees me and comes over. She then says i should join her at the diving area and before i could even say no she grabbed my hand and started calling over her friends - there were about 7 other girls and she mentioned to them that i was the guy who said he could dive!

The other girls started to tell say that i should show them my skills - and at this point i thought to myself il do one decent dive and then head back.

So i get up on the lowest board, and try to remember how people do it on TV and jumped in.

I felt like i had it, but when i hit the water i made the biggest belly flop i have ever done in my life. It hurt so much...my whole torso was read

When i got out of the water i could see the girls laughing, and the girl form the bar asked if i was ok...I told her i was fine and she said "well it was nice seeing you again!" and she went back to her friends

Im not the most in-shape guy and the part that hurt the most was the fat around my chest. Is this normal? I couldn't continue anything so i just got changed and went home

TL;DR - Tallked a big game about diving and ended up doing a belly flop infront of 8 girls who can dive

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 ...
