TIFU by ordering a bunch of Pokémon cards to the wrong address

The title explains a good bit. A little over a week ago I ordered around 19 individual Pokémon cards from eBay, which was after I tried the same thing on TCGplayer twice but both sets of orders were cancelled and I still haven't been refunded ):, and thought I was in the clear. (Along with this was four booster packs which was the only TCG order which went through.)

Only after a conversation with my father did I find out I messed up the shipping address and now most of the orders have gone to the set of houses directly next to me. Immediately after finding out about this I contacted each seller to ensure the few cards that hadn't shipped would be delivered to my place instead. Later that day I drafted up a little hand written note asking if somebody had gotten an excess of packages and envelopes they had not ordered and that those were mine. I gave my name for proof as well as my number and the apt I lived in next to them. I went to the set of houses with the shipping address I put by accident, there was 4 doors and only 1 answered. The entire time there was this fuckass orange cat judging me, It was (I'm pretty sure) the people who owned the whole complex and they were very polite, they immediately took a picture of the note and took me down to check their mailbox to see if they had anything. They didn't have anything in it but told me they would share the note to everyone in that complex and wished me good luck. I was pretty happy with that and decided to wait two days for a response and if I didn't get anything I would go back. two days went by, not a knock or a call came in so Thursday I decided to head back up to the complex to ask other residents directly if they got anything. I knocked on one door and was greeted by a neighbor, they said they saw my note from the couple I saw previous (Emphasizing that they showed everyone in the complex.) and hadn't gotten anything but they would be on the lookout. Its Saturday now and I'm worried, including the individual cards and boosters it was around 50$, I'm in high school and cant just be throwing that money around without getting anything I payed for. I don't want to get in my neighbors business again because I felt like a bother the first time around and they really were great people. How should go about this now? What more could I have done( After the order was made obviously) or should I really be this worried? I also never clarified what was in these packages so maybe they think its some crazy shit IDK.

TLDR; a bunch of cards went to address next to me, the neighbors might think I'm crazy, idk what to do.

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...
