TIFU telling my gf I screwed my friend

Throwaway

My 23M girlfriend 23F of 3 years and I were invited by the friend group to go out last night, she declined stating she wanted to stay in and told me to go have fun. I told her I’d be home by 11pm. We stayed out partying, having a fire, and talking. However once I got home - far too drunk and tired but coherent. I allegedly told her how I screwed our mutual friend before promptly falling asleep. This is not how I remember this conversation.

This morning I woke up to my girlfriend + her stuff gone, and a “I don’t want to see or hear from you ever again” text message. When I reached out to mutual friends - everyone was mad at me for cheating on her. Queue my confusion. I didn’t cheat on her. I tried explaining myself but nobody would listen. I tried reaching out to her but my phone number was blocked. Also found out I’ve been removed from almost all the group chats we had. I finally sent a text to her brother saying “this is what I meant when I said I screwed -insert friends name-“ with a video of me finding a screw on the ground and absolutely drilling it into my mates arm. He called me confused and I explained everything to him. How I told her that night “my love, I have the best pun for you. look at this, I screwed our friend” while pulling up the video. Apparently I fell asleep before my friend had finished sending me the video. He said he’d talk to her for me and sure enough, a few hours later she called me apologising.

I told her that she turned all of our friends against me without hearing the “pun” and she said she thought I was drunk and joking about the pun. Which I was drunk but not joking about the pun. She told me she didn’t want to tell our friend group that she had mistook my words because it was “embarrassing.” She didn’t want to tell everyone that I wasn’t a cheater out of embarrassment.

I sent the same text with the video to all of our friends, including the ones at the party. I also sent further screenshots of her saying she didn’t want to admit I wasn’t a cheater. Most apologised, some said it was my fault. Maybe it is. My issue isn’t her being upset about the pun, it’s the fact that she wouldn’t admit I wasn’t a cheater.

So that’s how my entire relationship dissolved over a pun.

TLDR; told my gf I had a pun to show her, fell asleep before my mate sent the video and she left before I could show her the video of said pun. Accused me of cheating and pit our entire friend group against me.

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...
