TIFU by saying no to a game

TIFU by chatting with an old coworker till 4am

So essentially a friend/old coworker (S) of mine who was visiting from out of town whom I haven’t seen in almost 2 years decided that we should hang out with another one of our old coworkers (J) whom I also haven’t seen in about a year. We all were talking til around 2 am in a random park, we were laughing and talking about old times about our shitty job we all used to work at and just having a generally great time.

I had left my phone in my car and my fiancé was trying to get ahold of me while also messaging my friend S, she responded and told him we were all just chilling at a park etc. this whole time I knew my fiancé had my location so he wouldn’t have to worry about stuff like that. Anyway we decide to drop S off back home because she has a train to catch in the morning and then it was just me and J. We used to be really close at our old job and would talk about saltwater fish keeping and whatnot.

He hasn’t seen me since forever and was asking me about my fiance and how are things. We decided to park on the roof of my current work place just to chill and talk, we were still strapped in with seat belts and had our arms crossed just chatting about life. At this point I hadn’t gotten a text from my fiance since 1am so I assumed he was sleeping so I didn’t want to bother him, I didn’t get a call or anything and since he had my location he would know I’m safe. So we’re talking and a car pulls up on us and it’s my fiance. He takes one look at us and gives me the finger and drives off. Then he comes back and starts calling me a cheating bitch and to come get my stuff from his place.

I obviously break down because what the hell? I was sitting in a car just talking about life and about him and how much we get along and the ups and the downs just general life updates. My fiance then calls me and was just saying really nasty things to me, so I kept telling him that nothing was happening and that he literally has the wrong idea and if he would have called or messaged me asking what I was doing parked at my work I would have told him.

Even J was trying to tell him that literally nothing was going on and that he pulled up on us sitting down and just talking. Anyway. Now my fiancé is convinced I’m a cheater, wants me out of his life and I don’t know how to get him to realize that literally nothing happened and we were just coworkers/friends catching up and lost track of time.

TL;DR my fiance thinks I’m a cheater when I was just chatting with a coworker that I haven’t seen or talked to in over a year about life updates.

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...
