TIFU chest planted from a flip on a trampoline

I am 29, and I was feeling very energetic today. I often have in my past jumped on trampolines for fun. I have not in a few years, but there's a rather large trampoline in my backyard. It's very old, inherited from the previous owners, and the edge of it is all metal framed. But I stay active, so I figured I could try it a little again. And when I started jumping, it felt very stable. And it was, I was juts the problem. ​ Well, I attempted a flip, did the flip, and over shot it. Landed on the metal flat on my chest so hard I still hurt. I have talked to everyone I know, laughing about how old I am. No one saw this, but I literally felt my shoulders go forward. My chest go, "NOPE!", and just flopped back on my back for a bit. It's was arguably hilarious. Quite a shame it wasn't witnessed by anyone. ​ Anyway, here I am several hours later and I am incredibly sore. I am contemplating pain killers since I rarely take any. But it's bad. My ...

TIFU - I booked the accommodation

So my job for a trip to a seaside town in the UK to watch 4 days of cricket. It was to book the accommodation. Simplicity itself isn't it? Book 3 nights that sleeps 3 people. No worries I get it all booked 3 months ago. Bit surprised at how cheap it was actually for an apartment that sleeps 4 and right near the train station. The party is 2 of us tonight, then 3 for Saturday and Sunday. All sorted now and we can get the train to the town. This is where I should have started to get worried. I arrived at the platform, phone my mate. "Where are you?" "On the platform" "I can't see you, where the fuck are you?" I'm the opposite platform you spanner, it's 15 and you're on 16!" No worries, I get to the correct platform and we head off. Nice day in the sun watching cricket and get a bit sunburnt. I brandish Google maps like I'm some explorer and lead us off to the accommodation. 35 minutes later my mate takes ove...

TIFU A buddy of mine and I were driving to the casino in Gibralter at night, and we got lost. So I pulled into a Cepsa gas station, marched into the Mini-Mart (with my buddy behind me), and walked up to the counter, only vaguely aware of a person sitting somewhat off to my right.

I asked the guy behind the counter, “Can you tell me how to get to the casino?” Before the guy behind the counter could say a word, the person to my right began to provide directions to the casino. And as this person started talking, my brain decided, “You know what would be funny?” As the fellow to my right provided directions to the casino, I continued to stare directly at the guy behind the counter. “…just continue up the hill until you see the big building with the lights; can’t miss it. It’ll be on your left. Drive around to the right to park.” Continuing to stare at the guy behind the counter, I now released my devastatingly funny line. “Are you a ventriloquist?” I asked the guy behind the counter. Instead of the laughter I anticipated, all I heard was the tinkling of the bell as my buddy fled the Mini-Mart, leaving me standing there with my dick in my hand. “Ah, crap,” I said to myself, and looked at the person to my right. Sure enough, the person to my right was...

TIFU by telling my psychiatrist I cried over seals last night

for some context, i am incredibly emotional before starting my period. it gets so bad that sometimes i cry over very small things. well the night before my period, i had a pretty bad emotional breakdown. i won’t get into detail, but ultimately i decided that i was going to watch some seals swim on youtube to help me calm down. Instead of feeling calm, i started crying more because of how cute they are, and had to turn it off. a couple days later, i had an appointment with my psychiatrist and told her about me crying over seals. looking back i thought it was funny… long story short, she didn’t. she had me do some surveys and informed me that it would be best to start an antipsychotic which is definitely something i wasn’t expecting. i just took my first one tonight and i’m already starting to feel much better, i’m hoping it will improve my mood not only before my period but in the time between as well. it’s crazy how something seemingly so small and insignificant can expose that there...

TIFU by calling my girlfriend "Tits" in front of her parents [Update]

Original Post: https://www.reddit.com/r/tifu/s/djghyyq3TR Hey everybody. Just a quick update. So last night was the first time my girlfriend and I went to her parents' house since the Tits incident. Nobody talked about it, so I was hoping that it would be forgotten. We all started eating dinner. My girlfriend excused herself to go to the bathroom. When she came back her Mom said, "Hey, it's Tits." They all started laughing at me. I wanted to cry. They all gave me a hug, but that didn't make me feel better. They just kept laughing. I just smiled and kept drinking wine to deal with this. I've realized that they will never let me forget this. But I am grateful they all have a sense of humor. TL;DR My girlfriend's parents reminded me of the time I called my girlfriend Tits in front of them.

TIFU by trying to be there for my classmate who didn't ask for it

im 17-M. there is a girl in my class, 17 (lets call him Nina). i felt that something was wrong with Nina. after some conversations we had, i realized that something is not right with her. so i spoke with her. i said she can tell me if something is not right. well, we're not so close, but i just said anyway. her reactions after i told her, those made me sure she has a problem (maybe something about her family, a relationship, or something deeper like a depression). she said everyone has problems, but i said "everyone doesnt have the same amount of problems nor has the same amount of capacity". she also said everything is alright, i said "i still believe that something is not right with you". she laughed. i could see that i touched her heart. she said thank you and we went to the class. after that day, i felt that she suddenly started to act cold and distantly. we didnt speak more than a munite that day because of the exams, but i felt it. i also asked and she sai...
