TIFU by letting my boss use my phone and accidentally like a girl’s young photo on Instagram

Submitted by skuzzlebutt36 t3_z4w56h in tifu

Bro, this is ridiculous. Prepare yourselves. So, last night I was having a conversation with one of my parents’ best friend’s sister’s daughter (I know). And then I brought her up in conversation this morning with my boss. So he asks if he could see a photo of her, and I was like “yeah, I guess.” So he scrolls through her Instagram on my phone and accidentally liked a photo from like 4 years ago. And she was fucking 16 in the photo. Literally. Because I’m 5 years older than her. Currently, I’m 25, she’s 20. But like. Dude. What the fuck do I say to her. It’s been hours since it happened. And I’m like “yo, does she think I’m a fucking creep now?” Part of me feels like she totally got weirded out by that. I’m worried as hell and I’m not sure if I should approach her about it somehow.

Help me fix this, please, Reddit!

TL:DR I let my boss use my phone and he liked a young photo of a girl with my account.

Don't let people hold your phone to "see" anything.

This is niche, and everybody knows about the instagram years-ago-stigma. Im sure shed understand, or even, you dont have to explain. It was just an accident, if she brings it up.

Dude, I work in food service. We are the most immature, shit-faced, dark-humoured, foul-minded weirdos. And even we wouldn't have actually done the scenario you presented.

Unlike the picture and erase that girl from your memory before it gets creepy.

It does make it better for you that he showed her around? Like why? What was the story around it?

“I was telling my boss about you and he wanted to see your picture. It was him that liked your picture from 4 years ago! “ Sounds plausible 😂
