TIFU by going on a first date at a hot yoga studio while not being in good shape.

TL;DR I went on a first date at a yoga studio and underperformed to say the least. Girl was not interested in my after that and said she was already seeing someone else.

Matched with a girl (absolute smoke show) on a dating app and we spent a couple weeks trying to plan a date except both of our schedules just didn’t line up due to us going on different trips and our work schedules. Last minute she invited me to her local yoga studio and I figured fuck it, why not. Since starting my full time career I have not been nearly as active as I used to be and although I still look relatively fit, my cardio and overall endurance has really been in the shitter. Fast forward, I show up to this yoga studio after working in 100+ degree weather all day and come to realize this wasn’t just yoga, it was hot yoga. Within 20 minutes of starting the session, my clothes were absolutely drenched in sweat and trying to hold simple poses had my whole body involuntarily shaking from muscle failure. At the same time, this girl is right next to me making it look like a cake walk (and looking great while doing it) while I’m fighting for my life. Instead of calling it quits I figured it would be more manly of me to half ass my way through the rest of the session. Mind you, we didn’t have much interaction at all walking into the studio and on the way out I was huffing and puffing with my face red as an apple. We walked back to each others cars and didn’t have any meaningful interaction on the way back and we both went our on ways. When I got back home we were texting back and forth and she was relatively short with me and this morning she texted me saying she’s not interested in scheduling another date because she’s also been seeing someone else. Rejection sucks but I’m comfortable with it. Someone else is out there for me and will be worth the wait. That’s the last time I’ll ever schedule a first date like that again.

TIFU - Don’t do what I did

On Sunday morning Aug. 24th, I awoke to discover a large blind spot in my right eye, which turned out to be what is called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It has resulted in a very significant, permanent loss of vision in that eye. Although I maintain good peripheral vision, whatever I focus on at best is very blurry, and mostly disappears. I can barely make out the large E at the top of the eye chart. If this happens to my left eye I’ll be unable to read or drive. It turns out that I missed the opportunity that I had to prevent this from becoming a serious problem because I failed to report what appeared to be minor changes in my vision. In the weeks prior to August I had noticed that what I knew to be straight lines appeared to my right eye to have a little waviness. I also noticed that the color of my front lawn, which I could see through the window from my recliner,  was subdued, looked almost gray, in my right eye. So I scheduled an eye exam, which revealed the p...

TIFU by getting suspended for 2 days by my front office in school.

I (13M) am an African American student at Jeannette junior high who had got suspended for 2 days here. I was in math class minding my business until my teacher had told me to go to the main office, which posed no problem to me. As i went down there, the people of the front office had stopped me and made me get a new ID (yes, we have id's.) so i had asked them if i could maybe do a different alternative and call my mother to let her bring the Id here, even then, the Id isn't that important. So, although i was talking to them in a calm manner and not showing any signs of rebellion, they had threatened to call the police on me without thinking twice before calling my parents. This is where i started getting angry, and even then now the black peers agree that could have been a racially motivated action. They then told me to sit in the office conference room because of that, leading into more anger. They had then called my mother who had came over to the school didn't even let ...

TIFU by putting my already skinny jeans in the dryer on high heat.

TL;DR: Was stupid and didn't realize I put my clothes on extra high heat in the dryer. Had to rock skintight skinny jeans all day with tighty whities (only clean pair I had since I procrastinate doing laundry like crazy). I guess the constant wedgies and squishing are punishment for my stupidity. Honestly don’t know who else to blame but myself for this. I’m a scatterbrained guy so I literally put the highest setting on a load with most of my clothes, and my skinny jeans that I was planning to wear today. You can probably already see where this is going, but somehow I didn’t. For context, these jeans were already pushing the limits of what could reasonably be called wearable. They fit, technically, but only in the sense that I could get them on with enough determination and a bit of strategic breathing. Sitting down in them was more of a commitment than a casual action. Still, they looked good, and I had convinced myself that discomfort was just part of the aesthetic. So this m...
