TIFU by investigating houses with no windows

So this happened today... I was going to a friend place but I arrived early and he wasn't there. I should wait for 15 minutes because he went for grocery shopping.

I decided to walk around to kill this time, and while walking I saw a building with no windows... absolutely 0 windows in a residential area.

For me it was impossible and wanted to check if they have windows in the other side, went from the left side no window but the road was blocked (dead end) same when I went investigating the right side no window but couldn't reach the front side because there was a main road leading to a highway.

I went back again to the initial place and stopped to think about the next steps. and 3 police show up :

- Good afternoon Sir ! what are you doing here ?

- Nothing special just walking

- Ok ! but why did you stopped ?

Now this is where TIFU, because I really wanted to give them a useful answer but I couldn't explain why I stopped... so I told them calmly :

- Sorry Sir, but I didn't understood your question.. I was walking and I don't know why I stopped. It just happens, my brain told me to stop, maybe I was tired of walking or I just wanted to stop and think...

They were looking at me like I am an idiot and one of them said that my behaviour is suspicious walking back and fourth and then stopping.

Seriously I didn't understood what's the problem... But I decided to explain everything from the beginning, visiting a friend, building with no windows which is strange in residential area, my investigation and walking to the left to the right of this building and then I stopped and I can't explain why I stopped.

And then they explained to me that it's a military barracks and I should'nt stay here.

Everything started to make sense and felt like a dumb not understanding their questions lol And of course I left immediately with embarassement 😂

TLDR : I walked ~10 minutes around a building with no windows, Police stopped me.. Turns out it was a military barracks. I also told Police that I can't explain why I stopped.

Edit : Spelling + wrong translation of Military Barracks. I translated it as Military base in the first post

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...
