TIFU by putting on Honey Don't! at my parent house.

Last night around 2AM my stepdad and I were watching movies in the living room. Now, he's not really a conservative guy, but he does get a little squirmy around homosexuality, especially if he's been drinking.

He told me to put on whatever movie because he was going to go to bed (aka, he'll watch the first half and if he loses interest he'll go to bed). I saw Honey Don't! and didn't think much about it beyond "I like Aubrey Plaza, sure" and didn't think to look up the movie beyond the description, which didn't really mention LGBT or anything sexual in it.

Now the first few scenes we did notice a bit of LGBT things, lesbian main characters and such, not a bit deal. Then the early drug scene where the guy who owes money tries to suck a guy's dick as "a favor" between payments... Well that stuck out as, maybe this movie is going to be a bit more than I hoped to watch around my step dad.. but we persisted for a bit. Then came the bar scene...Aubrey Plaza fingering the lead character on a date, turning into her head between her legs, very quickly.

I shut the movie off, apologized and he went to bed, slightly traumatized, thinking I did this on purpose. Oops.

TL;DR I unknowingly threw on a B-list Lesbian movie to watch with my homophobic step-dad over the holidays.

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 sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
