TIFU by accidentally stabbing someone in the face on Valentine's Day

It was Valentine's day. I (32f) was at a small Valentine's day concert put on by our local brewery. My boyfriend was the drummer, and I was there to watch him play and hang out afterwards.

The show was great, very entertaining with the singer going offstage every so often to pass out a rose or have someone sing a line. I was seated with his girlfriend (I'll call her K) and her friend (I'll call her A) during the performance.

A and K were both talking loudly and laughing raucously throughout the entire performance. They were clearly having a great time and while it was distracting, they were in very high spirits as they got progressively drunker.

During the intermission, my boyfriend and I went outside for a smoke and we bantered about how he could hear them over his drum kit. I told him I was having a great time and that his performance sounded amazing. We both agreed that it was a good thing that I'm not a drinker and then went back inside for the second set.

During the second set, A and K got even more drunk, silly, and loud. There were other friends of ours sitting nearby, so I did my best to ignore the drunk ladies, chat with other friends, and enjoy the show.

When the show ended, I went with my bf to cool off before breaking down the stage. We talked about his performance, and the ladies came back up because they were just so loud. I thought they were cute and having a great time, but he said they were annoying and that he was glad I didn't do stuff like that.

When we went back into the venue, A was drunkenly popping balloons with her teeth, badly. I offered to help to which she agreed. I pulled out my small pocket knife to pop the balloons quickly and easily.

A had her face down trying to bite a balloon while I was popping them with my knife. All the balloons were popped and we started picking up the little latex pieces off of the floor.

Thats when A said that she had blood on her face. My heart dropped. My stomach sank. Right on her left nostril was a tiny stab wound from my pocket knife that was bleeding pretty good. She had been drinking a lot so it was kind of bleeding a lot.

I apologized profusely, and offered help. She kept telling me not to apologize and that she, "kind of liked it." Literally everyone else there thought it was hilarious, even her, but I was mortified. How could I have been so careless? I know better with knives.

Now my boyfriend is going around telling people I stabbed someone in the face and he thinks its hilarious.

Anyway I felt terrible about it. She didn't. The end.

TL;DR: I stabbed a lady (completely by accident) in her nostril with my pocket knife while trying to pop balloons on Valentine's day.

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...

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...
