TIFU By getting kicked out over weed

So today I (20F) managed to turn an argument about weed into getting kicked out of the house I've lived in for the past two years. Fantastic. For some background, my boyfriend "Jay" (20M) and I have been together for four years. We currently live with his parents and sisters because, well, have you seen the fucking economy? I've lived with his family for about two years, and they've always been incredibly generous about letting me stay there rent-free. I've offered to pay rent, cook, clean, or contribute in other ways, but they've always declined. Because of that, I've tried to make myself as little of a burden as possible. I buy my own groceries and toiletries, mostly stay in our bedroom, and even shower at my mom's house. Not because his family makes me feel unwelcome, but because I feel guilty living in someone else's home without contributing financially. Now, onto the world's stupidest argument. For most of our relationship, Jay a...

TIFU by trying to prove I was more capable than my own child at a ropes course.

I took my kid to a high ropes course because he wasn’t tall enough to do it by himself, so I had to go along with him. The funny thing is, he was doing perfectly fine. No fear, no hesitation, just making his way through the course like it was no big deal. I was supposed to be up there making sure he was safe, but somewhere along the way, I started acting like I had something to prove. I was moving pretty quickly around the course until i slipped off an obstacle. No big deal, right? You’re wearing a harness, you’re attached to safety lines, and you’re supposed to be able to fall without getting hurt. Except I was holding onto the rope from above my head, and for whatever reason, my brain decided I needed to hang on to that thing with my life. So when I fell, I just kept holding on while the rest of my body went in the opposite direction. I heard a pop and blacked out for a second. When I came around, I realized I’d dislocated my shoulder. Now I’m hanging there in my harness, hurt ...

TIFU by maybe ruining the best relationship I ever had

Ok so no throwaway cause I dont care. Anyhow I (28 M) been in a 5 relationships and the last one (and yet currently) is the best. I found some so incredible Soul. I felt seen understood. We talked about everything. I helped her during dark times And Vice versa We both could communicate our needs and for example. If someone needed room. I'm her first relationship. ... A few weeks back I screwed up. This is how: she communicated some really important boundaries cause of past Events. I once broke the boundary and we talked it through I really thought i understood it but no I accidentally broke the boundary again cause I didn't fully understood it She says my intention doesn't matter I broke it and she doesn't know if she can trust me anymore and if there is a future. I dont want any kind of attention or absolution with this post. Just for every person reading this. If you have a very special person in your life, make sure you fully underst...

TIFU by buying cheese sauce thinking it was mac and cheese cups.

Before anyone asks how that’s possible, it’s because it’s this kind of cheese sauce that looks like the cups. I was so looking forward to eating these tonight except I only have spaghetti noodles and I’m too stoned to go out and buy actual cups. Welp, now I’m debating whether to use spaghetti noodles to eat them or just use the Alfredo sauce I originally intended. Yes, I’m aware this is a relatively minor fuck up, but I feel so stupid right now. On a more serious note though, why is cheese sauce being sold in bricks in the first place? I guess the part where it said cheese instead of cheese product probably should have been a dead giveaway, but yeah. TL;DR: I bought a cheese sauce brick thinking it was the microwavable mac and cheese cups.

TIFU cleaning my toilet and the bidet...

I had just gotten out of the shower and realized that I had forgotten to clean the toilet yesterday. I figured I still wasn't wearing any clothes and it might as well get it cleaned before I got dressed. Cleaning the toilet was fine, and I even made a point of scrubbing the bidet tube that sticks down, but it occurred to me that I never actually managed to clean the part that pops out and sprays water onto me. This bidet has a relatively sensitive twist knob with one direction being clean the nozzle and the other direction being clean the person with a stop in the middle. I figured it would be fine if I turned the knob on just a tiny little bit to get the nozzle to pop out. And that was fine... until I went to turn it off and I turned it the wrong direction. Luckily I didn't turn it too far, but wow that sprayer has some range. I wound up spraying myself, missing the shower curtain (it went I to the shower), and the floor with a little bit of water out of the bidet tube. Gr...

TIFU: Pretended I didn't head-butt my date's refrigerator

This wasn't today, but I recently remembered it and thought it could be good for a laugh. I had just started dating my now ex-boyfriend, I'll call him Alex. I want to say it was our second or third date. We were at his house watching a movie, and at one point I got thirsty and went to the fridge in the kitchen to get some water. The apartment was laid out like one big room with a wall in the middle to separate the kitchen and living room, with a couple bedrooms and a bathroom at the back. This meant that I could still hear the movie pretty well, so thankfully it wasn't paused and Alex stayed in the living room to watch. The fridge was one of those really small ones that's pretty short, and the drinks were on the bottom shelf, so I knelt down so that I could find a water bottle. I honestly don't really understand what occurred next. I went to stand up, and I must have been standing too close to the fridge. I was young, privileged, and had never encountered a fr...
