TIFU By Not Understanding That Food Allergy & Sex Do Not Mix

So, this happened years ago but my husband and I were reminiscing of our past sex fuck ups. This is one of them.

When I was a teen, I discovered that I was allergic to scallops. When i eat scallops my throat closes up and makes it difficult for me to swallow and sometimes breathe. It can also feel numb in an odd way similar to when your foot is asleep.

Fast forward a few years later and my husband (then bf) and I were on a date when he was offered a special that included scallops. He knew about my allergy and was hesitant but I knew that he was curious bc he had never tasted it before. I encouraged him to get it and simply told him to just not kiss me the rest of the night. He agreed and got the scallops.

When we got home we started to get frisky with each other. We were on his bed when he said, "I know you said not to kiss you, but how about just a peck?" I nodded and he pecked me and he slowly undressed me and himself. Meanwhile, I started feeling a weird numbness on my bottom lip. I didn't want to ruin the mood so I didn't say anything. It was easy to forget about tho since he started to pleasuring me orally. It felt soooo good but then...nothing. My vulva became very numb and itchy. "Whats wrong?" He asked looking up at me since I stopped moaning. I told him what I felt when he looked down and said "Uuuuh babe, you're swollen." I was confused and I quickly got up and grabbed a hand mirror. Yup, I got an allergic reaction on my lady bits. So, after an hour of crying in the shower, follow by a handful of petroleum jelly and a towel filled with ice, it took HOURS for the swelling and itchiness to calm down. My husband felt sooooo bad and all he could do was offer help and brush his teeth and tongue and wash his face over and over to make sure no remainder scallop juices were left. Anyway, that's my story. Has this ever happened to anyone else when it comes to sex and food allergy?

TL;DR: I have an allergy to scallops. My then bf (husband now) had scallops for dinner. We got frisky and during oral pleasure I got an allergic reaction to my vagina.

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 ...
