TIFU by saying no to a game

TIFU blacking out on Valentines

Where do I even start. A month ago I dislocated my shoulder; and it’s been hurting some days so bad I can’t even raise my arm or sleep on it. Working the Valentines shift a coworker gave me some Russian or Ukrainian pain meds and wow! They worked way better than tylenol and gave me some pep with the relief

I covered a shift at work because (single); not expecting any dates. I met a guy; went on 1 date, great. He asks me out for Valentines, second date.

I’m already frantic and rushing. Shift ends at 7; commute home is an hour and I am running from the subway station on slush/ ice/ knee deep snowpiles

It’s 8 by the time I get home and we were supposed to meet at 8:30; half hour away from mine. I text him that I’ll be late I had to shower, get ready and call an uber.

Mistake number one. I took a shot of whiskey at home to calm my nerves before calling an uber. Traffic is crazy due to weather and I’m delayed until 9.

We meet at a market waiting for our supper plans. There’s a bar at the market so why not have a cocktail? (Drink # 2)

We walk over to dinner and grab a martini each (Drink #3). Finishing up the bartender offers a shot of amaro (Drink #4). We head upstairs to the lounge and order another martini (Drink #5) and a shot (Drink #6)

At this point I don’t remember what happened after or what was said besides that I managed to get an uber at 12 and make it home to bed. I wake up the next morning and immediately throw up.

Currently nursing on miso soup and way too embarrassed and ashamed to even text the guy. I’m sure that was hella cringe for him and there will be no future dates.

Oh and fun fact not being able to read the language on the meds; my friend said I shouldn’t have had any alcohol for at least 24 hours. Fuck me

TLDR Fucked up my valentines date second time meeting a guy by mixing alcohol and pain meds

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...
