TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by upsetting a friend of a friend

I guess I'm just here to shout into the void. I feel really bad about this, I didn't mean to upset them.

A close friend of mine made a new friend a few months ago, which is awesome. New friend and I have never hung out much, but they've always been nice enough. I've gotten the vibe that they don't like me much, though, and I decided today that I was going to bring it up, because if they were uncomfortable with me around but didn't want to be rude and say anything, then I don't want to make them uncomfortable and would not be hurt if they just didn't want me to be around when they're hanging out with our mutual friend.

I spent a while crafting what I thought was a polite but matter-of-fact statement, basically, "I don't know if this is something I'm misreading, or if it's true, but I get the feeling that you don't particularly vibe with me. If that's true, that's okay and I don't want to make you uncomfortable by being around when you don't want me here." They had already been having a bad day, which I'm sure did not help, my timing definitely wasn't good. They said they don't know me well enough to have gotten a vibe from me yet, but now they think I have a problem with them, and I could see their face go stony.

I apologized, said that I don't have a problem with them and I wasn't sure in the first place if it was actually true or if it was just in my head, that I personally have trouble telling people something I think might hurt their feelings or be considered rude, and that I just wanted to bring it up so I could know. They just made a noise in their throat and stared at me. I apologized again, said I didn't intend to make them feel bad, and said my goodbyes. If they weren't uncomfortable with me being around before, I'm pretty certain I just changed that.

TL;DR: I thought a second-degree friend/acquaintance didn't like me, tried to clear that up, and basically ensured they dislike me now. I feel bad about it, but am not going to harass them so I can apologize more, so I'm just sitting in my mild guilt and shame.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
