TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by letting an untrustworthy person borrow my car

A little backstory here. I'm a divorced father and my ex is a real POS. We're talking about a woman so bad that I've even had feminists side with me in augments with her. And I mean stereotypical, man-hating, "like a fish needs a bicycle" feminists.

Anyway, yeah. All my interactions with this woman revolve around what's best for my kids, and in my mind what's best for my kids very rarely includes their parents fighting. Which, for the most part, means making what most would consider an extraordinary effort to get along with her even though she's a manipulative narcissist with some sociopathic tendencies. So when she called me up to ask to borrow one of my vehicles while hers was in the shop (I have two, one I've had forever and one even older that I bought from my parents for near nothing when the other was wrecked) I hemmed and hawed and finally decided it was ultimately better for my kids if their mother had a way to get to work so she didn't get fired yet again (did I mention she's been through more jobs in the 5 years we've been divorced than most people go through in their entire lives?)

So I let her borrow the more torn up of my two vehicles, the one that's been wrecked and repaired just enough to be drivable that I keep around and drive when I'm alone because it gets crazy good gas mileage, against my better judgement.

She surprised me by bringing it back when she said she would with a full gas tank and without a fight. I thought it was too good to be true and thought maybe she had changed.

Nope.

I got in my car after lunch today and noticed an empty bottle in the back seat. Looking closer at it, I realized it was an empty BEER bottle. That's bad enough, but in this state you can catch a pretty hefty fine and have your license put in jeopardy for having empty beer bottles in your car even if you weren't the one who emptied them (law says any container that once had alcohol in it has to be in the trunk - yes, it's a stupid law, but that's par for alcohol laws here). Probably I wouldn't have had to worry about my license since I don't do dumb things like that, but if I'd gotten pulled over before I found it I could have been hit with a $500 fine. This on top of the fact that she was apparently drinking and driving in my car. Basically, I'm so pissed I can hardly think straight over it.

I really lucked out here, but I've learned from my mistake. She never borrows my car again for any reason.

TL;DR: I let my ex borrow my car while hers was in the shop and it came back to me with an empty beer bottle.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
