TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by staying silent for too long in a relationship

TL;DR NEVER EVER stay silent in a relationship if something is bothering you with your S/O - deal with it ASAP since the longer you keep quiet the worse it will get.

Here's the situation My gf (well, now ex) are both 22. We've always been known as that cute couple from high school, since we've been dating for 3y6m.

I've always been the quite and shy guy, while she's been Bossy and sometimes even rude towards me and our friends. I've usually stayed silent - swallowing it all, not really wanting to argue. I just tried to tell her about that subtly, but it didn't work. I tried telling her directly that her actions and just not nice & rude and disrespectful towards me and others but nope

And two nights ago I was "late" home because I drove my friend to his house since it was pouring like mad (keep mind mind, both of us still live with our parents and are students) That was last straw and I couldn't keep it up anymore. She gave me a hard time for "coming home late" (it was like 11PM) and I ended up being the bad guy AGAIN

And there were a lot of just subte signs y'know - which I just KEPT SILENT OVER AND DIDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT like calling me fat (even tho I have 75kg and 175cm and do cardio A LOT) or being rude to me or being disrespectful a lot towards me and making fun of me and sometimes I even had a feeling she didn't even care about me and used me just to have some boyfriend.

What really made me think that she didn't really care was, I said that if we were to get married, I'd (have) to bring over my cockatiel, since he's suuuper bonded to me. She all got cranky and mad and kept telling me that she ain't cleaning after/from a bird (and he really don't make that much of a mess and I already do all the cleaning)

And when two of your closest friends, your sister and you dad strat telling you that something is wrong and that something needs to change and that her behavior is just not acceptable and that basically everyone stoped talking to her...

AND I KEPT SILENT FOR MONTHS AND IGNORED ALL THAT AND PRETENDED LIKE EVERYTHING IS FINE AND WAS AFRAID OF DOING ANYTHING

Until now.... She was my first girlfriend, ever. I really wanted to marry her, since I loved her with my whole heart and.... But sometimes I just didn't feel loved back - not even respected. This is all fresh for me, and I still have feelings for her - it will take some time I guess for all of it to go away. So please, don't be dumb like me - if you feel and see that something is not right in your relationship, don't ignore it and hide it under the rug.

As for her - she won't read this, she's not on Reddit. I wish her the best of luck in the life and studies.

Thanks for reading....please don't be dumb like me.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean 😏 Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
