As embarrassing as the situation is for me it’s also pretty funny so I thought you all might enjoy laughing at my dumb arse.

TIFU by getting completely nude in front of a group of men. I move around a lot for work and have been staying at a new place this week, it’s great for hiking and there’s a waterfall practically on my doorstep. So everyday this week I have gone for a hike in the mountains followed by a wild swim to cool down. I have not seen a single person on my outings since I came here.

Today I went for a longer hike than usual so was pretty tired by the time I got to my usual swimming spot. I ate my sandwich and sat resting in the sun for about an hour before going for a dip to cool down. I then sunbathed for another 30ish minutes to dry off. All in all I’d been living my best mermaid life for about 3 hours and had still seen no one.

Usually when I change out of my wet swimming gear I do the usual awkward dance under the towel to preserve modesty should anyone stumble across me. Well not today. Today I was confident that I was clearly the only person ever to have found my perfect swimming hole so decided to ditch the towel and go full commando, tits out, bum out, freedom for all while I change.

I was enjoying feeling the sun on my pasty white behind when out of the corner of my eye I saw something blue and orange moving through the trees above me.

A group of 5-7 men in full wetsuits, life jackets and crash helmets were walking through along the top of the ridge directly above me. They were all shuffling along at an awkward angle with their backs half towards me as I grabbed my towel and tried to shove dry clothes over a still damp body - this was not an easy thing to accomplish while balancing on a rock.

It was clear they had seen me and were trying to preserve what little modesty I had left by walking along with their backs to me.

I got dressed, packed up my gear and they went on by to a spot further down to start cliff jumping. I thought this would be the end of our embarrassing interaction but I was wrong.

Turns out one of the men lives a few doors down from me and was coming back from the excursion as I was in my front garden. I didn’t recognise him as they were too far away from me and I was more focused on my state of affairs than I was on their faces but he recognised me and came over to say hi.

He asked if it was me at the falls today and I say it was whilst turning bright red. He said he thought he recognised me as he had seen me going back and forth this week but hadn’t had a chance to introduce himself. He also said none of them saw anything as they all turned away when they realised I was there - I don’t believe him for a second but appreciated the lie. It turns out he works for an outdoor adventure club and takes tourists to different outdoor activity places including the local waterfall to swim and cliff jump.

TL;DR: TIFU by getting naked whilst changing out of my wet swim gear in front of a group of tourists who definitely all saw my butt and probably some boob. Also one of them is my new neighbour.
