TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

Post a Comment

TIFU by wrapping Santa's presents in the same paper as the normal presents.

So my wife (43f) and I (43m) have 3 kids, ages 11, 9, & 7. Not sure if the older two still believe in Santa, but the youngest does. But this year, we wrapped the kids' presents all in the same wrapping paper and put them out after the kids went to bed last night. After waking me up and drag me downstairs at 6am so they can look at their stash, I'm sitting there drinking my coffee and the youngest says to me, "Dad, did you get Santa's presents?"

Me, still not fully awake: "What do you mean?"

7y/o: "Our presents are wrapped in the same paper as Santa's presents. Did you get them?"

Me, on alert but still not functioning properly: "Well, what do you think happened?"

7y/o: "I think you got them. Is Santa real?"

Now at this point I know I'm screwed. While I don't mind fudging answers on occasion, or not answering completely, or leaving things out, I do believe that direct questions require direct answers.

Me: "We got the presents, Santa isn't real."

7y/o, with tears gathering in her big blue eyes, "I can't believe you let me think Santa was real."

Me, feeling the sting of her disappointment: "Do you want a hug?"

7y/o: "No, I need to be alone for a moment." And she walks off, head hung down, and goes into another room and shuts the door. I can hear her weeping quietly as my heart hurts.

Luckily, I think all the presents distracted her. So all's well that ends well?

TL:DR Wrapped Santa's presents in the same paper as our presents, now our 7 year old no longer believes in Santa. We killed the magic on Christmas day.

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. ...
