TIFU by getting into app development

Hey guys, today I effed up by investing in a local app that's currently in development. A good friend of mine, let's call him Richard Handpenis, has developed an aggregator for niche collectible valuation that helps ensure cash and collecti le trades are valued fairly. It's very cool, and I'm lucky to have been given an opportunity to be a part of it.

He ran into the first of several relatively small, but significant, financial hurdles, and I offered to purchase 10 percent of his company at a starting valuation of 10,000 dollars (1k investment). This should get him past some development and marketing stoppages, and let him bring the app into availability within a week or so - all very exciting, if in a super boring manner.

We ran into some issues with cash app that meant my investment had to be broken up into smaller amounts, so after the initial deposit he requested number 2 under "invest 2".

He didn't, unfortunately, type invest, and instead put a "c" in exactly the wrong place. I didn't much give a shit, made fun of him for being dumb, and then sent the money.

Exactly thirty seconds go by and my phone goes off with an absolutely (rightly) IRATE wife on the other hand. In the first place, and this really is where I'm an asshole, this wasn't something I discussed with her beforehand. Without going into too much detail, I had the money in what's essentially a petty cash account that I use for personal purchases, and while I should have still discussed this with her, I had not. This isn't to say a thousand dollars wouldn't hurt us to lose - it absolutely wouldn't be great, but my incorrect thoughts were "meh, I'll just go back to saving for a while and it won't matter in the long run". Definitely the wrong choice on my part. The second (well, third actually) issue is Richard's name on cashapp is a commonly used Arabic term of endearment.

I.e. my wife saw a notification in our shared email from cash app that I was paying hundreds of dollars for "Invest 2" (but with a c where the v goes) to some random middle eastern person with absolutely no heads up whatsoever. It went... poorly for me.

TL;DR:

TIFU by investing in something without telling my wife, having the other party misspell the word "invest", and his having an incredibly generic middle eastern cashtag.

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...
