TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by being dirt broke but still buying designer knockoffs while my GF and I are barely surviving

Me (23M) and my girlfriend (22F) have been struggling hard lately. We literally have bread but no butter, our dog Max gives us guilt trip stares because his bowl's been empty for 3 days, and we're washing dishes with Head & Shoulders because dish soap costs too much. Our fridge is just expired sauce packets and stale crackers at this point.

I work part time at this warehouse plus been trying random side hustles here and there but nothing's really panning out, while she's job hunting with zero luck. Basically we're both grinding but getting nowhere fast lmao.

Last month I'm scrolling at 2am after another failed attempt at making extra cash, feeling sorry for myself, when I find this sketchy site selling "designer" knockoffs. Fake Supreme for $30? My tired brain goes "yo I deserve this after busting my ass all week!" So I blow $120 on bootleg everything while we're literally rationing dog kibble 🤡

Packages arrive and it's straight trash. Supreme logo looks like it was drawn by a drunk toddler, Jordans smell like a chemical spill, hoodie feels like sandpaper. But I'm wearing this garbage thinking I look fly while my GF stress-eats plain bread for dinner. She finds the receipts while checking why we overdrafted again. The pure disappointment when she realized I wasted our last $120 on fake clothes, man I wanted to sink into the floor. She just goes "so you worked all week and tried all those side things just to blow it on fake Supreme while our dog starves?"

Now I'm back to the grind in my disintegrating hoodie, eating dry toast, realizing I really chose looking rich over feeding my dog. Nobody even complimented the fits btw. Galaxy brain financial decisions strike again 💸

TL;DR: Worked part-time and failed at side hustles just to waste money on fake designer trash instead of dog food, disappointed my stressed GF, learned that poverty flexing is peak stupidity

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. ...
