TIFU by accidentally thinking my friends were dating…

I (18m) am in my first year of college. A friend of mine, Jake (18m), was in highschool and we both ended up at the same college. Within the first week, we hung out a lot and I managed to meet a lot of fellow college students I had been in contact with prior to moving in. One of which was my really good friend Tommy (18m).

I am gay, so naturally I attract a lot of fellow queer people--being an an art college doesnt help--in which, both Tommy and Jake are gay. At some point, the two of them ran into each other and spoke. They both, seperately, texted me to say they met the other. Ever since, whenever I see them, they are together and hanging out. You never see Tommy without Jake, or Jake without Tommy.

I noticed they were spending a lot of time together, and made a note before moving on. Eventually, our college hosted a fair. I attended, eventually seeing Tommy and Jake aswell. I ended up following the two around, and as i did.. I noticed how in sync they were and how close they seemed. I thought, maybe they liked each other? But i didnt think much of it, until our next hang out...

Today, I went to dinner with a few friends. I had a bunch of friends come and go, the two staying the longest were Tommy and Jake. I ended up not feeling well, in which Tommy began to INSIST to walk me back to the room. Jake following aswell. Everytime, throughout the dinner and walk home, i would make a private jab to the two of them. I just thought it was a funny coincidence i was running into frequently. Nothing serious. I always made sure the other was out of ear shot when I made these jokes, and they both laughed.

When I was in my dorm, and the two left, Tommy texted me and told me he liked Jake. That i was onto him, and that Jake didnt know, so dont tell him. I told him it was pretty clear Jake liked him too, and he should go for it! I then, looked over to see that Jake texted me. Jake said that he liked Tommy. He told me "i dont know if were dating or not. dont want to force anything"

I thought that meant Tommy and Jake were seeing each other, but without a label. So i told Tommy that Jake told me everything, and Jake that i was happy for the two of them!!

Only then did Jake say that he hadn't actually confessed to Tommy. And i realized just... Fumbled the bag. I then immediately told them both to just text each other and confess. I had let it be known the feelings were mutual on accident, all because i assumed the message meant they were just seeing eachother secretly...

TL;DR: I accidentally let it slip that two of my friends like each other because i assumed they were already dating

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...
