TIFU it-girl disasterclass

This actually happened a year and a half ago yada yada

Sophomore year of college, I (M19) had a thing for a friend of mine (F20). Already bad move as she was the it-girl, but anyway

I normally would have asked her out but I held myself back because we were both part of our student government and I didn't want to cross pollinate (overregulating myself harder than SF zoning law I know I know)

I complain about this case of affairs to a different friend (M22).

About a week and a half later me and my crush are hanging out she drops the "guess who I went on a date with?" outta nowhere

Somehow first guess I guessed my other friend, she says yeah.

I laughed just a wee bit too hard. Guess I should tell you my guy friend is like objectively hot, I ain't even gay but he's fine as fuck. I was kinda putting 2 and 2 together in my head

She said "what's so funny"

My dumbass fessed up at that point, couldn't think of an adequate lie

"If I had liked you I would have asked you out already"

TL:DR never do anything I did

-went for the it-girl, predictable result -overregulated myself, predictable result -told my hot guy friend, predictable result -told her when it was too late anyway, predictable result

In the words of another friend the guy "griddy'd and millyrocked on my grave" but hey I forgive him that was funny as hell, he also apologized

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 ...
