TIFU by not being able to handle life

I feel like I'm about to break down. My mom and dad are getting a divorce. My siblings are all moving out. I don't have a good enough job to get my own place. I don't really know what's going to happen. I really value my family being all together, but it just seems like everyone is going their own way now. I don't know if this is God's will or just the devil's plan for division. If I have to end up living somewhere on my own I don't know if I can make it. I don't think I can handle living away from all of my family, but it seems like I don't really have a choice. I don't have a girlfriend or a wife either to spend time with.

I don't understand why this is happening. I know that me and my siblings would grow up eventually and get their own house and start their own family, but why is everyone moving so far away? We all love each other. We're a close family. I still have good friends where I currently live, but even they are starting to get married and they spend less and less time with me. I think at this time I should draw nearer and nearer to Jesus. That's the right answer, but I don't even feel close to God much anymore. I feel like He isn't talking to me.

I know this is off-topic, but lately I've been scrolling through old messages and I've been cringing and feeling ashamed at a lot of the attempts I made to ask out and flirt with girls through social media. I did it a lot more than I remember. I think I might just delete all of my social media. My family is going their own way, I'm not any closer to getting a girlfriend or a wife, and I just don't feel God's love much anymore.

TL;DR I can't handle life

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...
