TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by telling my sister's boyfriend he could do better

My sister Carly has been dating this guy Matt for about a year and honestly he's way too good for her. Like he's super sweet, has a good job, helps around the house when he comes over, even brings gifts for our parents. Meanwhile my sister treats him like garbage half the time.

She's always canceling their plans last minute, flirts with other guys when they're out, makes him pay for everything even though she has her own money. Last week she literally made him wait outside for an hour because she was "getting ready" but was really just FaceTiming her friend about some drama.

Yesterday Matt was helping me move some furniture and started venting about how frustrated he gets sometimes. Said he really loves Carly but feels like she doesn't appreciate him. I could tell he was genuinely hurt and just needed someone to listen. That's when I opened my big mouth and said "dude you're such a catch, you could probably find someone who actually values you." He got this look on his face like he was thinking about it. Then I kept going and basically listed all the ways my sister doesn't treat him right.

Now Carly is furious with me because apparently Matt brought up some of the stuff I said during an argument they had. She's accusing me of trying to break them up and said I betrayed her by talking shit behind her back. My parents are also mad saying I shouldn't interfere in their relationship. But honestly I was just being real with the guy. He deserves better and deep down Carly probably knows it too. Still I feel terrible because I might have ruined something that could have worked out if I'd kept my mouth shut.

TL;DR did I cross a line here or was I just looking out for him?

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. ...
