TIFU by misunderstanding my girlfriend leading to a break up

So I met this girl on tinder. we lived a good distance apart but we started going on dates in February. we had been meeting regularly for about three months and been intimate. Our dates were fun and i liked her as a person. Despite this we were having trouble holding conversations. Our interests did not align at all and we kept trying to introduce the other to our hobby but it wasn't for us. Still this was my first relationship in a while so I figured these things take time.

Yesterday we went on a really fun date. Go karts and laser tag progressed to movie and making out then we had sex. After when we were cuddling she says, "how would you feel if I started seeing other guys?" This is NOT my fetish and not a relationship dynamic I would like but as I say we never really hit it off so I thought ok she wants to go back on tinder. Ie breaking up

I said "I guess I would understand but I wouldn't be able to stay in that kind of relationship."

She asked what I meant I understood and I said pretty much what I did here. About halfway through explaining she said she really wanted to know whether I saw a future with her. Best guess she asked if she could see other guys so I would get defensive and ask her to take the relationship to the next level. Instead we broke up and somehow I'm the asshole cause we had sex before this talk.

To be clear I would have tried to make it work a while longer or at least done it a better way but I was so blindsided I just kept saying I was sorry but you can't take that back.

TL;DR this girl asked me to go steady in a weird way I I thought she was breaking up with me. So I did it by accident

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...
