TIFU by holding a baby

This happened a couple days ago.

So, my gf agreed to help some friends out by being the respite for their 3 week old baby boy from the foster system while they took a short vacation. He's a baby whose mom was on meth. I agreed to help by house sitting for them, feed the dogs, etc. I've done this before so all's fine and dandy.

Well, it's all working out until a few days ago when my gf comes over to the house and has the baby boy. I've always been standoff-ish about babies. Especially newborns. They're whiny, so fragile, and so I'm kinda intimidated by them, to be honest.

My gf had a lot going on that night, and so I offer to help anyway I can. She says, "Well, if you could feed ______ (the baby), that would help a lot!" So, she shows me how to bottle feed him, burp him, and use the binky/passy, etc. Even how to hold him - I really don't know anything.

Fast-forward a couple days later. Since then, I've been holding him and feeding him generally once a day or more. When he cries, I can't think of anything but him. When he smiles for the split-second, baby smile, my heart melts. To see his body shake from (possibly) the meth effects on his fragile system... I could freakin' cry rn. (I'm actually tearing up while writing this)

I honestly can't shake the feeling that my life up to this point has been selfish, and worthless. That there are little, living beings out there who didn't ask for a hard life, but have been given one. And, I'm doing nothing about it. I don't even have a full-time job right now either.

TL;DR - TIFU by holding a baby, and it has led me to question my very meaning of existence, and what I have been doing my whole life

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...
