TIFU dafür dass ich damals bescheuert war?

TIFU by not shutting up and driving myself into being single

In traditional TIFU fashion, this was and ongoing thing that culminated to today, early hours today.
I am a bit of a homebody and my (ex) girlfriend liked to go out for a few drinks every now and then on weekends. In the beginning this was not a problem for me as it would usually only be for an hour or two and sometimes I would tag along just to socialize for a bit. Eventually she would invite her friend T(male) to hangout as well and then they would stay out later and later, usually until 1 or 2 am. I was kinda irritated at that but it was her own personal time and I didn't want to intrude. Soon you'll see where this is going as that got extended to 4, then 5, then 6, and lately 7am the morning after on weekends. Everytime she would come home to me and try to have sex with me. But knowing that she spent more time with T than myself I would usually, and saltiness, turn her down. This has continued for months now and at the beginning of this month I confronted her about how much time she spends with this guy. I said that it makes me uncomfortable that the bars close at 2 and that she heads over to his parents house. To which she said it's only for a few more drinks and to watch anime. What particularly hurt was that I had tried to get her to watch anime in the past but gave up after disinterest. As of two weeks ago, I asked her to chose me over T and she said she'll try but then began to hide texts, phone calls, and would now head out during the workweek for a few hours to watch anime with him. She says that this was only so she wouldn't miss out on the next episode. You can understand my anger at this and I asked her to choose me and her kids as now they had noticed and cried about missing her. Nothing changed, so I planned a way to get ahold of her phone and get proof. Well, I did it this very night after she passed out and I found my proof. My heart broke and began to beat out of my chest, it must have woken her as she looked at me with a blank face. I cried, my breathing was like a cold starting engine and told her that I can't be her boyfriend anymore. Unfortunately, that is fuckup number 1 for today and here is the other. I live in her house and don't have any savings to find a new place. I don't have friends near enough to couch crash or anything. I should have just shut up and planned a way out before all this but it kept eating at me.

TL;DR: I suspected that my girlfriend was cheating, found out and broke up with her, and am possibly going to be homeless with no savings.

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 making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
