TIFU by showing my girlfriend my flipper device

So this happened this weekend.

My now ex girlfriend was out of town last week. She got back late Friday night. I stayed with her that night and all was good.

Saturday morning we woke up and as I was cooking breakfast she noticed $400 had been taken out of her savings account. After looking at her transactions she figured out both were withdrawals from ATM’s. One at a bar and one at a bank. We guess that her card got skimmed somewhere. She called her bank and closed the card and reported the fraud and everything else.

We started talking about it and i tried to explain to her how easy it is for someone to skim a card and some of the precautions she should take. Things like checking the pumps and card machines and also maybe think about getting a wallet that blocks the cards from being able to be read.

So here is where I messed up. Around Christmas I impulsively bought a flipper zero. I am trying to learn about internet and device security so I thought it would be a cool little tool. I set the thing up with help of some YouTube videos and then copied my work badge and crashed my phone a couple times and since then the thing has been in my bag ever since. I hardly ever touch it, it’s just there.

So me, trying to make a point on how easy it is for someone to scan a card, I grab the stupid thing and place it on my wallet and it picks up one of my cards. She freaked out on me asking why I have it and so on. I tried to explain wanting to learn about security and coding and how that’s not the only thing it can do and all that but all she heard and saw was I have a card skimmer And she assumes I am using it maliciously.

After that I cleaned up from making breakfast and took a nap while she watched tv. Woke up to her telling me she was going shopping with her niece and I needed to leave. So I left and went home. I didn’t hear from her till late last night and our convo was short.

Today I txt her and we got into it again. I tried explaining my side again but she wasn’t hearing it. I even tried to compare it to how even though she carries a pistol with her everywhere, I don’t assume she’s trying to rob or murder people. But “that’s not even close to being the same thing!”

So now I’m single again and I’d bet she prolly assumes I’m the one who stole money from her account. I’m not worried about that though cuz I’m sure once it’s investigated the ATM’s will show exactly who it was.

TL,DR: Now ex girlfriend probably had her card skimmed somewhere, I showed her my flipper device, she freaked out and now I’m single.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean 😏 Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
