TIFU by thinking the man in my bed was my boyfriend

r/

This happened two nights ago. My boyfriend and I don’t live together, but he crashes at my place a few times a week. I got home late, totally exhausted, and was thrilled to see him already asleep in bed. The lights were off. I slipped in beside him and spooned him from behind, resting my arm on his chest.

He didn’t move.

I whispered, “Babe, are you awake?” Still nothing. I kissed the back of his neck.

And then a man I’ve never met turned around and screamed.

Turns out my roommate’s brother had come into town that night and crashed in the wrong bed, my bed. Neither of us had any idea. I thought it was my boyfriend. He thought I was a home-invading pervert.

We both screamed. My roommate came running. My boyfriend showed up 15 minutes later, laughing so hard he cried.

TL;DR: Got into bed with who I thought was my boyfriend. Was actually my roommate’s brother. Accidentally traumatized both of us.

    Your roommate (who I assume was in her room) did not show her brother which bedroom to sleep in (assuming that you also have a guest room)?

    This was a fuckup on your roommate’s part, I’d say. Glad everything turned out alright!

    I feel like your roommate’s brother is the one who FU here, not you.

    Your roommate is garbage. Why didn’t she tell you her brother was visiting (1) and physically show him the correct bed to sleep in (2)?

    Nice to see your boyfriend taking it for what it is, instead of getting all jealous and accusing you of cheating like half the SOs on Reddit

    Opposite happened to me in my 20s. I crashed on my buddy’s couch.. he left early to run somewhere in the morning. His wife came down and thought he had just gotten home late and crashed in the couch. She came over and started kissing my neck and ear.. I fucking screamed and jumped lol.. she screamed and jumped.. I don’t think she found it humorous.. my buddy and I laughed about it later but she always seemed annoyed about it the next day or so (she was a bit of a b)

    So, OP got plowed by roommate’s brother, so hard that she screamed and woke up her roommate.

    The roommate was uncomfortable with the whole situation… OP pleaded with roommate not to tell the boyfriend.

    Boyfriend showed up shortly after, OP came up with this story.

    BF didn’t buy it, OP posted it in hopes that commenters would buy it and bolster her claim.

    The part she left out of the story- he let me do everything I ever wanted to do and didn’t say a word as I ate his ass.

    Hold on. Roommates brother got in the wrong bed but roommate was home. Why didn’t roommate correct her brother before going to bed?

    The boyfriend most definitely would not be laughing

    While this sounds horrible I may have done one even worse back in the day. I was visiting a friend of mine at college, I’m a guy, visiting a girl but just a friend. At one point I guess I fell asleep while laying on the floor and my friend had class so she just left me sleeping on the floor since her roommate was never home. Apparently while sleeping I managed to roll under the roommates bed that I had fallen asleep in front of. The roommate who had probably been there twice is the last three months chose that day to come home for nap in her bed. About an hour into her nap I woke up and came crawling out from under her bed. To say she started screaming was an understatement

    OP: I gently nestled his erect penis into my warm butt crack when I noticed he was circumcised. I softly stated, “Kal-El, no,” and pressed against him until I was filled with his warmth.

    I can’t imagine a world where I wouldn’t recognize my girlfriend by feel when I spooned her, and wouldn’t immediately know it wasn’t her if it wasn’t. Then you kissed the back of his neck? I’d know the smell of my girlfriend anywhere, and getting that close to her neck — there is no way I wouldn’t know that the woman I was near wasn’t my girlfriend.

    Something like that happened at my brother’s wedding reception. We had the reception at the house. The lady who had been our babysitter and housekeeper for many, many years had way too much to drink and was assisted into my parent’s bed before she could fall down and hurt herself. My dad, (who had also had plenty of alcohol) went to bed without my mom and, in the dark ,it took him a minute to figure out who was next to him. They had had a moderately adversarial relationship for years ( him, a bit overbearing and her, a proud black woman who wouldn’t take any crap off of him) so they were both pretty horrified by the situation and each sobered up immediately. The rest of us found it pretty funny. We still tell that story.

    Isn’t that on your roommate for not telling you that their brother was in town and crashing at your place?

    At a family get together I napped on a big sofa, my cousin got home from some practice and thought I was her boyfriend all cuddled up. Guess he will come over and nap like that. 

    She cuddled up to me and put her hand down my pants. 

    I turned my head and we made eye contact for awhile. 

    2nd cousin btw.

    A similar situation happened to me at my 20th high school reunion. I got pretty drunk that night and my friend brought me home with her and put me to bed. Her bed. I guess she never got to tell her husband because he joined me in THEIR bed later that night. I’d never even met the man, and he hopped up pretty quickly! The running joke the rest of the reunion weekend was how I ended up in bed with Betsy’s husband!

    Nearly gave my Sister in law a hug and kiss when she was asleep in my bed and my wife was asleep on the guest bed…I literally grabbed her shoulder and leaned in and realized and noped out. Then, I found my wife asleep on the guest bed. The explanation was that my SIL was staying for a few hours because her shifts at the time were close together and she wanted to nap and didn’t want to drive home(40 min each way). Which made sense, but why our bed and not the guest bed still drove me nuts.

    I know you’re traumatized but that is a pretty funny story. It was clearly a mistake by all parties involved. It could have ended worse.

    When i was 19 i was staying in my friend’s brother’s room for a time while the brother was out of the country for a while, and I came home from my nightshift to be surprised by an Old Man in the bed. I guess he was a family member and someone told him(? or he decided) to sleep in there without warning me. Thankfully I didn’t accidentally climb in bed with him (Though i got pretty close to doing so before i realised he was there, scared the shit out of me, and he never woke up with my presence) and went to sleep on the couch instead.

    I always questioned the validity of stories like these. Between the clothes on the ground/chair, and the other person’s smell, no matter how dark, I have never gotten into a bed with a stranger. One has to be completely oblivious for this to happen.

    One time I slept over at my friends house and her husband came home drunk and rolled in bed with me (it was his old childhood room, he got confused I guess lol) (I had also been drinking and was out cold) anyways woke up in the morning to him yelling “WHAT THE FUCK” and running out of the room💀

    This reminds me of Thanksgiving about 16 years ago. My sister was running through the options of where I could sleep because her husband had fallen asleep in the living room where I was originally planning to sleep. “You can sleep with M,( 1.5 year-old) but if she wakes up and sees you, she might start screaming. I can sleep with M and you can have my bed, but if J (husband) wakes up, he’ll probably come to bed and snuggle with you thinking you’re me until he grabs you and wonders who had a black Friday deal on boob jobs. Or, you and I can just share my bed.” (I shared with my sister)
