TIFU by telling my college crush she'd find someone else to go to the movies with.

So I think I might actually be an idiot.

There's this girl from one of my classes at uni. We first met at a freshers' party, and I remember having a crush on her pretty much from the moment we met. We got along really well, had similar humour, and could just talk without things getting awkward. For a while, I considered making a move, but I eventually decided against it. We were vibing pretty well as friends, and I didn't want to risk making things weird between us in case she didn't like me like that.

Then the next semester came around, and we slowly started talking less and less. Nothing happened between us, we just kind of drifted apart, being in different classes and all that. Eventually, it was mostly sending each other reels, occasionally chatting about something random, and that's about it. This was roughly a year ago.

Fast forward to yesterday. I randomly run into her at a mall. We're catching up a little, talking about uni and whatever, when she brings up this new movie. I think it has a bit of romance in it too, but anyways, she asks me if I'm going to watch it later that evening. I tell her I'm not. Then she says something along the lines of how she really wants to watch it but doesn't have anyone to go with.

And this is where my brain apparently decided to take the day off. Instead of considering that she might be hinting at something, I tell her that half the uni is probably going to watch it anyway (I knew a couple of other people going), so she'll definitely run into someone she knows. She gives me this slightly confused, disappointed, but also kind of amused look. I notice it, but don't really think much of it at the time. We go our separate ways, and that's that.

Fast forward to the middle of the night, and I'm lying in bed when my brain suddenly decides to replay the entire interaction in 4K.

SHE WAS ASKING ME TO GO WITH HER. WASN'T SHE?

I genuinely don't know whether to laugh at myself or walk into the ocean. I STILL LIKE HER. PLEASE tell me someone here has missed an even more obvious hint than this. I need to know that I'm not the dumbest, most oblivious guy here.

Also, if she actually was hinting at something, is there any way to recover from this without making it weird? Atp I don't even know if I want to.

TL;DR: Had a crush on a girl from uni, we drifted apart, then she told me she wanted to watch a romance movie but had nobody to go with. Instead of offering to go with her, I told her she'd probably find someone she knew at the cinema. Only realised hours later that she might have been asking me out. Please share your worst missed hints so I can sleep peacefully again.

TIFU by not disabling an option in Windows that seemingly made my PC stutter for the last 3 years

I bought a pretty good PC in 2019 (2300 € of goodness) but, a few months after I installed it, the PC started to have, at random, small freeze for like a second, every 10 to 50 min for seemingly no reason. I did tons of benchmark, pretty much read every posts about "my PC is stuttering/freezing help meee" on the internet, called the After Sale number from where I bought the PC. Removing and putting the GPU back helped for a few weeks, but then back to square one. Checked the state of my disks, the ventirad, everything ! Restarting the PC made the stuttering stop for like 1 or 2 hours that's it. I had GPU-Z and CPUID monitor on all the time to check if anything happened, and weirdly enough, having those monitoring program open made the stuttering way weaker ! Drove me absolutely crazy. Then one or two weeks ago I saw a post on r/buildapc about Fast Startup option in Windows and how it was a good idea to disable it... So I did. Since then, nothing. No stuttering, no f...

TIFU while being spicy with my Gf

I 26M have a gf 22f. We enjoy sex with each other but wanted to spice it up as she wanted to try something new and I was all for it. She had me order cuffs, a blindfold, and a vibrating plug which I thought would be fun to try. I let her know when they arrived and a few days after they arrived she came over and we got ready. She had me out the cuffs on her and blind fold first before I did anything else, followed by getting the plug ready. I put what I thought was a good amount of lube on it as one does. Well sadly when I slowly put the plug in, it immediately went all the way in as off it was just sucked in followed by a loud “AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHGHHHHH” which my dumbass at first thought “Oh she must really like it!” Until i realized it was from pain. I started panicking for a second then realized she was in pain, blind folded, and handcuffed. When I asked if she wanted me to take them off she said no and just sat there for about another 5 minutes. It didn’t completely ruin our spicey t...

TIFU by not getting visual confirmation on the lube he was using

Obligatory not today, but I was talking with my ex (the counterpart in this story) and he said he was surprised I hadn’t written this post yet, and truthfully, he’s right. So I (30 at the time, F) and my boyfriend (29 at the time, M) had been dating for a few months and were honestly having a blast. Maybe too much fun. A lot of late nights out. Both very spontaneous people with a lot of social and sexual energy when together, the latter being an important component of this story. One night we had decided to go to one of our neighborhood spots and have a few drinks before heading back to his place. In our city there’s this local artist that creates these awesome vending machines full of unique shit, some of it’s as simple as a pair of earrings or a bag of tiny ducks, but the fun ones are these mystery packages. I always liked choosing the spirit animal ones cause those contain a tiny toy animal and a card with some relatively snarky description of why your lazy like a shark or whateve...
