TIFU by trying to send my girlfriend a spicy pic and accidentally AirDropping it to a stranger at Starbucks

r/

This happened yesterday and I still want to crawl inside my own spine.

My girlfriend (F25) and I (M28) have a running joke where we send each other ”secret agent selfies” while we’re out and about. You know, random selfies or even mildly spicy ones with captions like “Mission in progress.” Cringe, I know. Love does things to you.

Well, I was at Starbucks waiting on my drink and thought I’d surprise her. I took a subtle, shirtless-in-the-bathroom-mirror pic (from earlier), captioned it “Your target is in position.” Opened up AirDrop, saw “Emily’s iPhone” and thought, “Aha! Her Starbucks name is Emily!”

Narrator: It was not her phone.

I realized this as I heard a small “OH MY GOD” gasp from a woman sitting at a corner table. She was holding up her phone in horror. Then locked eyes with me. She immediately packed her laptop and stormed out. My iced caramel macchiato has never tasted more like shame.

TL;DR: Tried to AirDrop my girlfriend a sexy photo. Sent it to a random woman at Starbucks instead. I’m the reason her coffee was decaf.

    when they say “everything was better in my days” it’s often oversimplified, romanticised.

    But at least nobody could drop me an unsolicited spicy pic where they awkwardly bite their upper lip (because that’s how it’s done, right?) and rubbing their nipple

    Not saying I don’t believe you, but Apple disabled having AirDrop Receiving set to “Everyone” indefinitely quite a while ago. You can only turn it on for 10 minutes at a time now. 

    Unless they’re running a dramatically out-of-date firmware, which is always a possibility I guess….

    Yeah I’m pretty over these shittyGPT and not-actually-fuck-ups TIFU posts. Think I’m just leaving the sub at this point.
