TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by accidentally revealing my coworker's crush in front of the whole office

This literally just happened an hour ago and I'm still cringing so hard I want to disappear. I work at this small accounting firm and there's maybe 15 of us total. We're all pretty close and joke around a lot.

So there's this guy Kevin (late 20s maybe?) who sits near me and he's been acting weird lately. Like he keeps asking me about my desk neighbor Amy, what she likes to eat for lunch, if she's dating anyone, stupid stuff like that. It was pretty obvious he had a thing for her but Amy seemed totally oblivious.

Today we're all in the break room for someone's birthday cake and Kevin's being his usual awkward self around Amy. She's talking about how she's thinking of dyeing her hair and Kevin just goes "you'd look good with any hair color" which was sweet but also cringe. I thought I was being helpful by nudging him a little.

So without really thinking I said "Kevin you should just ask her out already, we all know you have a massive crush on her." I meant it as like a friendly push but the entire room went dead silent. Amy's face turned bright red and Kevin looked like he wanted to crawl under the table.

Amy mumbled something about needing to get back to work and basically ran out of the room. Kevin followed her and I could hear them having this awkward conversation in the hallway. I think she was trying to let him down easy but I couldn't really hear everything. Now I feel like absolute shit because I basically forced this whole situation when maybe Kevin wasn't ready or maybe Amy suspected but didn't want to deal with it. The office vibe has been weird all afternoon and I keep catching people looking at me like I'm some kind of drama starter. Kevin came back to his desk and hasn't said a word to me. Amy's been avoiding eye contact. I texted Kevin saying I was sorry and that I thought I was helping but he just said "it's fine" which clearly means it's not fine.

I honestly thought I was being a good wingman but now I'm wondering if I just made everything worse for everyone. Like maybe some things are better left unsaid? But also isn't it better to just be direct about this stuff instead of dancing around it for months.

TL;DR I have no idea if I should try to fix this somehow or just pretend it never happened. Either way I definitely fucked up.

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...
