This was actually 7-8 years ago, shortly after starting my first job. TIFU by committing a grave error at my first secret Santa that made me feel like a complete idiot. It was my first job, 6 months in. As a shy and reserved person, I was hesitant about participating in the Secret Santa, but I finally gathered the courage to take part in the festivities. I was thrilled to draw buy a fun-loving girl who often joked about her weight with me. I regularly workout, we had some good laughs. I thought I had the ideal gift when I bought her a protein shake, a bottle of alcohol, and a "diet spoon" with a hole in the end of the bowl section. I thought she would find the gift funny and appreciate the gesture, but I was wrong. On the day of the gift exchange, everyone's presents were laid out in the middle of the office, labeled "To x, from Santa." As people began opening their gifts, the room was filled with laughter. However, when it was my Secret Santa's turn, t...

Hey everyone. If you remember my story (in my post history), I developed empty nose syndrome after my inferior turbinates were amputated clean off without my consent during a nose job. The nose job was supposed to straighten my nose after a severe car accident and improve my breathing, but I can’t sense air anymore after the turbinate amputation, which has left me with suffocation permanently as if I’m drowning underwater 24/7. How am I still alive? Well, somehow I got the attention of a prominent research university here in the United States. I had a conversation with them and they have made mini turbinates out of adult human stem cells (no they don’t use stem cells from aborted fetuses since adults make stem cells too) , and in order to begin the project fully start to finish to get to human trials, it will cost $4 million approximately. They applied for government funding but were denied due to the rarity of ENS (it’s not rare). Of course this is a dream come true and keeps me go...

Today I fucked up by washing and drying the cushion covers of my 1970s glorious, yellow crushed velvet, cost us $1 at auction, seemingly indestructible couch. It has nice industrial metal zippers on all the cushions so you can take the foam out and wash the covers i presumed. Having three boys under 10, as you can imagine, a light colored couch is bound to get dirty. The straw that broke the camels back was the red kool-aid stain. So I took all the foam out and zipped the covers back shut and tossed them in for a wash. This morning when they came out of the dryer is when I noticed that the inside seams weren't finished/serged. Or, rather, thats when I noticed the zippers weren't wanting to unzip. Cue cursing. Finally get one unzipped and am met with what appears to be a spiderweb of thread and fluff. The fluff is clogging the zippers. On a positive note, after extensive trimming of threads and scooping out of fluff, the seams are holding, the foam is back in, and my couch is...

My mom was not talking to me at all since that happened. Sigh. My dad upset me for unrelated reasons, so I was upset and crying in the bathroom alone. My mum saw me storm off and felt bad. So she came to console me and hug me. Often our arguments will resolve when she sees me sad and so she ends up in her protective mom headspace instead. So she spoke to me about the other issue and consoled me. But then asked me if the man is coming on the weekend with his parents to discuss getting married. Now I asserted that I didn't send the nudes to anyone. It was just for myself. She said she didn't believe me, but she was being a bit less aggressive and softer than before. I said that I really didn't, they were just for myself because I like looking at myself. (This is a lie but what else can I do?) She said I need to swear on her life. Which eek I didn't want to but I don't believe it really matters, and the alternative is getting married off soo...I said I do. She held...

My mother is in her mid-60's and is an avid tea drinker, she also has barely any sense of taste or smell due to health related issues (not covid). Even though she care barely taste or smell, she still has a favorite tea. Kroger brand ginger and turmeric tea. She will buy out the entire stock on a weekly basis. It's her fave tea, and as tea drinkers know, if they change the recipe it's hard to find something the same. So when she came home early from a weekend trip from our cabin up north due to the snow, imagine her dismay as she finds her tea "tasting too citrusy." I had just come home from running errands and as the family nose (strongest sense of taste/smell) my brother rushes me and asks me to smell the box of tea bags to see if it is indeed more citrus than before. Note: I was asked to smell the tea BAG, not the cup of tea. I smell it, it indeed smells strongly of citrus, I read the ingredients of the tea and it includes orange peel. We start examining all...

I was making dinner with my 5 and 2 year old kids around and playing my 'Pop Mix' from Spotify with Explicit songs toggled OFF... seemed safe enough. Started off fine with Bruno Mars, Kelly Clarkson, John Mayer, you know, safe music. Then came Poker Face by Lady Gaga, where she says 30 TIMES, "Fuck her face" (as the response to Po-Po-Poker face). I was shocked that: A) she says Fuck B) my 5 year old caught it C) Spotify doesn't think Fuck is a swear word My 5 year asks what that means. I divert the question and said it means someone on Spotify missed tagging this song as Explicit. She persists. I tell her it's an adult word and eventually we move on. Fun curveball I wasn't expecting. TL;DR I fucking up by playing a song with "fuck her face" in it 30 times in front of my kids.

I (21 M) had a lot of cartoon characters that used to sexually turn me on when I was young. Wendy from gravity falls, Shego from Kim possible , that female fish from shark tale but Lola Bunny really did it for me. I used to be bricked up watching space jam. Of course I have normal crushes too like Selena from wizards of the waverly place, Carmen from spy kids. I was with my friends and we were talking about the girls we liked growing up , so I said in passing I used to wanna fuck Lola bunny when I was young like 12-14, but not anymore. I thought it was a shared experience among everyone but apparently I was the only one and they immediately started laughing and saying I’m an odd ball for wanting to sleep with a bunny. But dawg have you seen how they drew her ? And the kind of clothes they put her in? The film makers knew what they were doing. I’m so embarrassed right now. TL;DR : told my friend I used to have a crush on Lola Bunny

For some context, I live in Connecticut which for those who don’t live in America, Is right in between New York City and Boston. We currently have been using Hulu with the Live TV feature as our main TV provider for over 3 years now. The only issue I had with Hulu was that despite me living closer to Providence and Boston than New York. We only get the New York Regional Channels, for both sports and News. We also get the local Connecticut New Stations but we don’t get the New England Regional Sports Networks which for me is a major red flag as I am a Die hard Boston Sports Fan. A couple of days ago, I asked my dad if he would be interested in switching to one of the TV providers that “supposedly” had the New England Sports Networks. We sat down and went through the options and we ended up settling on YouTube TV. Big mistake, they don’t have the New England Networks. Even though I read an article that said they had those networks, apparently their only on TubiTV and DirecTV Strea...

For context, I just recently started working a new job. After a few weeks they began to lay back on shifts because there were more employees that needed training. The following week I ended up being sick for the first day of that week, so I called in and said I wouldn’t be able to make it but I could head in tomorrow. The next day I was still rostered off, so I accepted it. This pattern continued the rest of the week, until I decided to try and contact work on Thursday. Unfortunately the phone service for both mobile and landline phones wasn’t functional that day, so I had no way of contacting my employer. The following day I was able to call in and ask to be put on shift next week. They agreed and then at the beginning of next week I got food poisoning. I received a call from Human Resources and apparently they assumed I had been sick all of last week and that’s why I hadn’t received any shifts. I tried to explain the situation but they said I needed a doctor’s certificate to prove I...

Today (actually yesterday) I fucked up by forgetting to buy cans of wet cat food. I have two cats. One is clever, active, food motivated, and very vocal. The other is more relaxed, calm, and prone to cuddling later in the morning. Both are very routine oriented, as cats are wont to be. For them, in my small apartment, I maintain two dishes of dry food, two water sources (a fountain and a bowl), two litter boxes, and a dish of wet food that I set out around 7am every morning. The food motivated one will attempt to wake me at increasingly early hours of the morning for breakfast if not given some kind of prompt that she feels is reliable. In the last couple years this became my morning alarm. I'd refuse to feed her before it went off. Otherwise she would (and has) attempted to wake me as early as 4am for food. She still harasses me, but within 30-15 minutes of when my alarm should go off, which is significantly more tolerable because she can be extremely persistent in her attempt...

I teach English abroad so I was making a class on Valentine's Day for cultural exchange. I was sitting in the teachers office on my school laptop. I thought I'd tell the kids how "xxx" means "kisses" in text language. Anyway, I thought I'd find a picture of text kisses to use in my Kahoot quiz so I absentmindedly typed "XXX" into Google images and pressed Enter. I didn't realise, this was the worst decision I could have made. Suddenly, my laptop screen is absolutely filled with the most explicit adult material you could imagine. An NSFW mosaic of hardcore smut, legs splayed, close ups of genitals, the works. “Shit.” I sit right next to the door so anyone could have walked in. In a panic I exited the screen as quickly as I could and looked around me, I don't think anyone saw. Thank god no teachers were near me or even worse, any students. TL;DR At school, currently making a class about Valentine's Day, googled images of text kiss...

I'm GenX (47M) and OFTEN make fun of Boomers' tech support problems as my partner (45M) and I frequently help our Boomer parents, relatives, and co-workers sort-out basic consumer tech problems (e.g. smartphone, WiFi, computer, etc.). A couple of days ago I tried to call my partner while I was picking him up from his work. I rarely call him because he has worked from home since the pandemic, but I was driving and couldn't text him. Instead of getting his voicemail, I heard a message, 'This Verizon number is temporarily unavailable...'. We're on the same Verizon account and I pay the bills, so I knew there must be a problem. Eventually, I called him through Facebook messenger. When we got home, I reset the network settings and rebooted both phones, but still received the same message. I eventually spent over an hour with Verizon tech support making sure my number was not blocked on his phone. The tech support agent advised that I should get a new SIM card at ...

Someone from a really long time ago said, "Ain't nobody made a fool of himself keeping his mouth shut." I have empirical evidence to suggest otherwise. My best friend and his wife just welcomed their second child into the world a week ago, and I got to meet the lil guy today. They've also got a son whose old enough to walk confidently but still hasn't progressed verbally past "Ma" and "Da". So the pair of them are run pretty ragged. When I arrived my best friend's wife hugged me and said, "Thank god you're here. I need a nap SO bad." and then disappeared into their bedroom for her much needed nap. I hung out with my friend for a bit and admired the new addition and played quietly with the other one while he chilled. Then it was feeding time for the newborn and my buddy, being the ass that he is, didn't warn me about the baby's tendency to projectile vomit without warning. He thought it was HILARIOUS when I got cov...

This actually happened about 7 months ago but it still haunts me till this day. I (17 female) was with my (18 male) boyfriend. We are long distance so he was over at my house for about a month. before i get into the story i would like to add that We have been together since we were 15 and are each other’s first everything. first relationship, first kiss, first time..all of that cute stuff so we are unimaginably close. We are so close no bodily issue is a taboo conversation. we literally sit together in the bathroom there’s nothing he hasn’t experienced. like it feels like we share a body we are that close. Anyways i had struggled with anorexia for about a year at that point and that ruined my bowl system completely. I hadn’t pooped in about a week and a half and was in severe pain so he recommended i take laxatives. I took the highest dose the bottle recommended which was my first mistake. i hadn’t taken that brand of laxatives before so i didn’t know how powerful they were. That morn...

Today I (20) was working at my job in Maine and my front end manager (65) went on a half hour break. During that time the store got super busy and I was by myself so I was trying to get customers out the door as soon as possible. During that time I guess a person from the alcohol control came in to do a "sting". I was so distracted by the long lines that I forgot to check their id and sold them beer. A little bit later an older gentlemen came in with the beer in his hands. He said that the person who just bought this beer was underage. I asked if he wanted to speak to my manager who was back from break. He said yes so I brought her out and they talked. I didn't overhear what they were saying, but my coworker told me not to worry. However as you can guess I am worrying. The actual manager will be in on Monday and I don't know how much trouble I am going to be in. TL;DR: I sold alcohol to a minor in a "sting"

About a year ago I finalized a divorce with my ex-wife. It didn’t end the greatest but we’ve been on good terms since then and have been focused on being great co-parents for our son. A month ago she messaged me asking if we could get him a passport. He’s five and they don’t have any trips planned abroad but she figured we could get some ID for him. This set off alarm bells for me and a wild thought crossed my mind that she might be planning to leave the country with him. It was an irrational thought and I dismissed it almost immediately but you can’t always help where your mind wanders. I know these kinds of things happen, but this is not something my ex would do, it really was just a random irrational thought. So we get him the passport this week and he’s telling a relative about his passport which raises an eyebrow and some questions. Later, I text the relative that I had some reservations too and that I recognized that it was a ridiculous idea but I still thought it. Except, I...

I feel like a terrible cat parent. I have two wax burners, one in my bedroom and the other in my bathroom. I had a friend spending the night with me, and knowing my cat, he would try to sleep on top of her. So, I left him in my bathroom to sleep. This isn’t uncommon even when I don’t have guests, as he loves to sleep in my bathroom sink for some reason. The wax burner I keep on the bathroom counter I usually turn off every night, but I guess in all the excitement of preparing for my guest, I forgot to turn off the burner before bed. At around 6am I heard him crying so I let him out of the bathroom, but I didn’t think much of it and went back to sleep. A few hours later my alarm woke me up and the cat came over to greet me. That’s when I noticed his tail looked wet. Upon closer inspection, I realized his tail was covered in a hard waxy substance, as well as a small spot on his back. I look in my bathroom to see spilled wax all over the sink and floor and genuinely start sobbing. I ca...

I think I fucked up a good thing. This happened about 3 hours ago. I've (f31) been seeing Simon (m31) for a little over a month. We've been taking things slow, partially because of living situations, so we'd only had sex once before and, besides that one time, the rest of our dates have been in public. Today I finally got my place to myself and invited him over for dinner. We didn't even make it to dinner before we were in the bedroom going at it like horny teenagers. When all was said and done, we realized the condom had slipped off at some point and he'd finished inside me. A couple of weeks ago, I had a papsmear that came back abnormal. This meant my abusive ex had given me HPV and it may have caused cervical cancer. I have an appointment to have a colposcopy done to find out if it's cancer. I hadn't discussed this with Simon yet. I should have before we had sex, and I know that I fucked up. Simon was worrying about Plan B, but I knew I had to tell hi...

This isn't really a today story, but rather a year+ undertaking. I've moved quite a bit in my life. I've bounced around to so many different states, but the longest I've lived in a single place was NYC. I was frustrated in NYC because of all the reasons you may have heard. It is expensive, loud and can be exhausting to navigate. I would regularly talk about moving. One of the places I always wanted to move to was Washington DC I've worked adjacent to politics for years, so it only makes sense. Throw in I'm constantly consuming political news and talking it, I just found the the entire idea of it interesting. Every so often, I would travel there for work, have a good time with the people I know there, but it was always short trips. I appreciated the office in DC significantly more than the NYC office. Weirdly enough, I always felt the NYC office had more office politics than the DC one, which even though I like politics, I don't want to be in them and I a...

TIFU. I didn't mean to weld in the kitchen. In an attempt to be healthy, I placed some beets in a steamer basket, put it in my big soup pot and put it on over high heat, figuring I would turn the heat down when it reached boiling. I smelled something awful and thought "Damn, beets really do kinda stink." Then I looked over to see a grey haze filling the kitchen and rolling into the living room. I suddenly realized that I had put no water in the pot. What an idiot. I have no idea what was going on in my head, but I really fucked up. Everything was burnt. I went over to pull the pot off the burner, but it was completely fused to the electric element. I guess my Saturday errands will include going out to buy a new stove element, a new soup pot, and a new steamer basket. TL;DR: I put beets on to steam with no water in the pot and welded the pot to the stove.

Alt account BTW. Also, sorry for any confusion I make typing this. I try to keep my stories short, so I will leave out a bit of details. So, this happened a while ago actually, I (17M) remember the exact day I was admitted to the psych ward. It was the day after New Years (great start to the year). I won't mention how I ended up in a mental hospital, but I will hint that it involves drug use. Also, just so you guys know, a psych ward isn't what it's like in the movies. It's actually rather...chill and I personally found it a good place to express myself and be a better person than I was beforehand. ~~ I recommend it highly if you feel like you ever feel like you're on the "edge" ~~ Anyway, after about two days of being there and surprisingly making a lot of mentally ill friends, I meet a girl (16), let's call her Ashley. Going into the psychward, Ashley was the first person to catch my eye. She was extremely attractive and very friendly after gett...

Throw away account for perusing the adult subreddits here. So, at my current (and probably soon to be former) employer, old computers, servers, networking hardware, etc. get recycled. Typically, the desktop/server support guys pull the hard drives for destruction and do a weekly dump of the rest. During this time, I’d usually see what if any scraps were left over, and if it was something I could use for my homelab, I’d press them into service. Speaking with others, they too have done similar things from time to time. Where todays fuck up comes is I got greedy. Instead of waiting for the soon to be recycled hardware to be taken to the central area where all things destined to be gathered, figured I’d scavenge before they were sent off. In doing so, scavenged a system that wasn’t destined to be recycled. And this is where I enter the world of shit. As it turns out, this system in particular was being temporarily stashed and awaiting to be sent back to its original location. Now that ...

TL;DR: Got nudes from gf, couldn't add them to the secret album of my phone so I tried putting them all in a new album, causing to upload all the nudes into google photos, now gf is mad insecure and I'm ashamed of myself. ​ Throwaway because I need to get this off. This happened some hours ago, my gf came over some days ago but we couldn't have sex since she was on her period but she promised to send me nudes. Today I came home from work and was feeling a bit horny so I asked her about it. She sends the nudes, I save them and get off to them. Afterwards, I tried to hide the pictures since my phone had a "private album" option. For some reason, it wasn't giving me the option to save them on that private folder. Here is when the fuck up happens. ​ A quick google search told me I hdto synchronize with the cloud to use the private album. Thing is, my phone was a Xiaomi Redmi, which recenctly stopped supporting Xiaomi cloud (which was the ACTUAL cloud I had t...

A little background: I (25M) have a girlfriend (23F) who I have sex with sometimes. That's right, and it feels really really good on my penis. Sometimes when it happens, my penis makes white pee and I pull my penis out of her vagina (that I get to stick my penis in) and make the white pee on her boobies. Anyway, the other day, we were having sex ;) when suddenly something happened that made her pee (go number one) during sex! It smelled bad! But then, I stuck my wiener in her butthole and poop came out and she had big sticky diarrhea all over my bedsheets and it stank to high heaven. I started throwing up and then she started throwing up and the throw up got all over the pee and poop and I couldn't finish doing sex and I didn't make the white pee. TL;DR: My girlfriend whom I was having sex with did number one and number two.

A few weeks ago I made a bet with my roommate. We do this more often when we are bored. Looking through the brochures, he saw that cabbage was on sale. Then he came up with the idea of ​​challenging me to eat 4 kilos of these white cabbage in 6 hours - and keep it inside of course. If I win, he would clean the apartment for 2 months. If I lose, then I have to. I didn't think what a lot 9 pounds of this stuff was (they're quite heavy). Although I haven't agreed yet, he ran straight to the nearest grocery store and came home with 2 white cabbage plants. I started laughing because the two plants didn't look like much. Confident in victory, I made fun of my roommate. I figured I'd just put the veggies in the blender with water and then drink. So I took about a quarter of a plant and, put them in about a liter of water and put them in the blender. So I just had to chug about 4l of this stuff in 6 hours. Sounds quite easy. Long story short: I managed the 4 kilograms in a...

Little background: last night me(23m) and my gf(22) had dinner at a chinese restaurant, we had a 3 course meal and were very full. After our dinner date we went back to my dorm and started having sexy time. After some kissing, foreplay and her riding on top of me she started to go down on me and giving me a bj. My gf likes it when I am rough with her during sex and she likes it when I take her hair/head and push her head during a bj/face fuck her. So I start pushing her/ face fucking her and it all starts well, it feels amazing. You might already guess where this is going, but trust me, it gets worse. Suddenly I hear a gurgling sound and she starts coughing really bad. I thought she choked on her saliva but she seems stressed and a bit panicky. She is saying she needs to go the bathroom really bad and I was confused untill she told me to look at my dick. There was vomit on it and I realised she puked on my dick. She rushed to the toilet of my dorm and I heard her puking very loudly....

The original recommendation occurred a couple years ago, but the fallout came today. I've had a friend named "K" for about 10 years now. We were always pretty close, and she saw me through some tough times with women and careers and other such drama. She was close with my folks, and I always enjoyed our time together. She rarely showed vulnerability - she always seemed pretty tough, even though her life was challenging, same as mine. However, one time she was feeling pretty down and came to me with her troubles - but they were a DOOZY. She hated her life, thought she'd never find love, was convinced she was going to be unhappy forever, and had pretty much given up. She was suicidal in every way but threatening the deed. I was ill-equipped, and all my comfort and recommendations to her were dismissed. So, like a good friend and millennial, I recommended she seek out a therapist to help her talk through things. She absolutely flipped out on me. We didn't speak for...

I (23M) have a had a friend (22F) for a few months now. We went to high school together and were friends then. We weren't ever super close then, but we were friendly and hung out sometimes and did some school activities together. One of them was we were in the school play together. We never talked/saw each other after I graduated (she was the year below me). A few months ago, I was looking through some high school stuff and saw her name in some stuff from the play. I thought it would be nice to see how she was doing. I messaged her on social media, and she said she had thought of me recently too and that we should meet up. After that, we started hanging out pretty frequently. She is an extremely good person. I enjoyed having her as a friend. I respect her a lot. Sometimes things got a little flirty between us, but I wasn't trying for anything like that. It would just be some jokes here and there, and it was not just one sided. One day we watched a movie together at my place,...

So I am at a small conference and made, a little presentation. this happened about an hour ago. all went well, it was dull as expected, I returned to my seat at the back when done and disconnected my laptop from the smartscreen. next presenter was not a subject I had much interest in so, I popped my ear buds in, connected to my laptop, and set about doing some surfing and put some music on. let's just say this group was mostly industry professionals and were intently concentrating on the subject being shown. I felt my ear bud started to cutting out a little in my right ear and out of instinct reached up to fiddle with it, and either the battery died totally or I disconnected it. either way suddenly at top volume in a quiet conference room out screams, Rage against the machine, Killing in the name of. "F**k you I won't do what you tell me!" all eyes on me, I died inside a little. nobody, and I mean NOBODY laughed. I'm in my car now and debating if I am go...

This happened literally this morning. Today started off in all the wrong ways. I woke up late because my phone alarm was on silent, rushed to get my morning routine done, and fled out the door to work. In my rush to work, I stopped at the gas station for a breakfast burrito and Red Bull. While there I placed my phone down on the counter, quickly paid and left. I rushed into my car, ate while driving, got to work at the exact time I needed to clock in... and noticed my phone was gone. Just not there, nowhere in the car. Well, shit, I must’ve left it on the counter. So I told my boss I was heading back for my phone and left to go back to the gas station. At the gas station my phone was gone and the manager told me she didn't see any phone left on the counter. I asked if I could see the security footage and she informed me that, no, I couldn’t see any security footage. She straight-up told me to get the cops if I want to see the footage. Okay, well, I am a mechanic for the polic...

Original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/tifu/comments/1173r03/tifu_by_ingesting_mold_for_a_year/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf Just wanted to update y’all about my mold ingesting fuck up. So first of all, my account got suspended very shortly after I posted the original post so I was unable to respond to comments and couldn’t upvote any. But I did take some of the advice I read. I did use the 50/50 vinegar water solution to try to clean the mold from the machine. I cleaned all the visible parts first and then ran this through the machine until I could no longer smell the vinegar. I left the reservoir empty and open. The next day there was black spots in the reservoir again. My husband thinks I should bleach it, but I honestly don’t think I can use it again. When I get near it I start having flashbacks to when I was very sick. I have gone back to drinking my daily hot chocolate but now I use my husband’s normal coffee maker to make the hot water to add t...

Stopped by QuikTrip this morning around 5 a.m. to see if they had any phone styluses or maybe a Naked smoothie if I felt so inclined. Outside there was a homeless dude, chilling in a blanket. (Probably literally, it's cold as hell.) They did not, so I grabbed a water and a sandwich, paid, then handed the guy both because why not, right? He introduces himself, I do too, shake his hand, et cetera. For some godforsaken reason, I open my mouth and say "Been there." I have never been there. I have no idea what he's gone through. I immediately want to backtrack, but there's no way to backtrack without sounding like a douche so I basically just say my goodbyes and beat feet. I feel like an idiot and an asshole. Just created the much worse cousin of saying "you too" to a waitress when she tells you to enjoy your food. I can never return to that QuikTrip. TL;DR: bought a homeless guy his sandwich, told him I'd been there like a moron.

I had headphones on and was being a bit careless. Just casually scrolling through nudes I'd sent someone as I stood in front of the toaster. I had a bit of a fever that day too so was feeling quite disoriented, probably why I was so reckless. I regret that so much. I shouldn't be casually scrolling nudes in the kitchen with a strict traditional family ahh. Suddenly my mom reached over me to take plates out from in front of me. I panic and close my phone and turn around. Both my mom's and sister's face is of slight shock and confusion, but I don't know if I'm imagining it as it's so subtle. No one says anything and we move on. I am tense the entire day. I can't tell if they saw? Sometimes she will not react in the moment then later barrage upon me. Later she is cooking and comes up to me to show me boob shaped cheese. She laughs and makes a big deal of them. Confusing. Is she taunting me? Did she see? I'm so confused and anxious. I'm up late o...

I (39 M) kinda had an awakening of sorts. For starters, I go to the gym on occasion. Yet, I get discourage because for the amount of time I go, I never really saw any improvement. And when I walk around, I’d envy the guys who can bench press their own body weight, something I couldn’t do even when I was 180. Mostly because I couldn’t get comfortable bench pressing heavier weights. But on top of that, aside from my high school football coach showing us the basics, I never had a fitness or lifting trainer that demonstrated proper techniques of lifting. Well, today as I was casually scrolling through the world of Reddit, I saw a video of a man bench pressing and having the bar fall on his chest with what looked like an incredible amount of weight on it. I kept looking at the video over and over again and couldn’t figure out what he did wrong. Then I read the comments and someone pointed out that the lifter was using a “suicide grip” and not a “standard grip.” When I read that, I immed...

Couldn’t handle the stress of school & lockdown and vyvanse (ADD) made me totally emotionally numb. I was claustrophobic & lonely going between our 2 small apartments (his in a nice high rise), it was difficult to bring my cat & all our stuff back and forth. A few times I asked him if he would be open to moving to a ground level or somewhere with roommates/a pod, but not sure he understood I was serious. I probably didn’t communicate as well as needed. So I opted to stay with friends & mom in ground level places with more space/privacy/freedom to come and go easily with my cat and work really hard in school (nontrad) to save my sanity. I think I was also a bit depressed as well. We didn’t really break up, just talked less and less. Heard from a friend that he was heartbroken. We are in our 30s for context. I tried to catch back up with him after his rebound (Jan 2022) but he was with someone else right after that so fast we never got a chance to talk about it (April 2...

I (19 M) didn’t even know I was into stuff like that until it showed up on my feed. I was scrolling through TikTok and some girl on my for you page made a video where she was saying stuff like “who’s a good boy , are you a good boy “ Something Inside me really liked the sound of that, I know it’s weird , I’m not proud of it but I can’t help it but like it. I went on her page and watched a few more where she saying stuff like “That’s my good boy, just like that sweetie” She was talking in like a voice you use when talking to a puppy and i immediately folded. That’s my weakness. I saved a bunch of those videos , just to hear the words. I love my GF but idk how I can tell her I’m into stuff like this, I don’t wanna weird her out. Anyways today she was over and she knows my phone password and she said she wanted to check something so just gave her my phone. What she wanted to check was a few pictures I took of us the day prior. The videos were not in the hidden folder and saw a bu...

So my mother has come to visit me at my my house, she's been here for 2 weeks already and it's been nice. I had a long day and came back to her sleeping sat up on the chair in the kitchen, I was exhausted too and went to bed, I hadn't watched any porn for like 4 weeks and took it as an opportunity before I slept and while she's sleeping downstairs. I thought I'd turn the volume on a little bit for the beginning bit as theres no way she'd hear it. I can't hear it , so I turn it up more, still cant hear it, turn it up a little more, then I hear something from downstairs like its coming from a speaker and the penny drops, she must have switched the bluetooth speaker on to try to use it but couldn't figure it out and fell asleep. I'm still connected to it from the nigh before and still had my bluetooth on. I just blasted porn downstairs waking up my mother. I knew she heard it cos I heard her moving afterwards. I thought there's only one way to red...

Throwaway account. I [22f] am a college student who lives alone in a big apartment building near campus. When I came home from classes last night, there was a note under my door saying that there would be repair people coming by between 8:30am-4:00pm to drill a small hole above my door because the apartment was installing fiber wifi. I had planned to be out of the house the whole day for classes, so I sort of immediately forgot about it. Fast-forward to this morning. I wake up to an email saying that my first thing for the day (meeting with a professor) is gonna be over Zoom, so I decide to take my morning routine a bit slower than usual. I take a shower and then put in noise-cancelling earbuds and listen to music while getting ready. It's also worth noting here that I am pretty severely near-sighted (can't see well far away but can see fine up close) and wasn't wearing my glasses. I grab clothes from my closet to change into and take off my robe to change. I put my unde...

I (22m) have been stuck in this never ending cycle of a series of lies for the past 4 years. Some background my parents immigrated here for the Soviet Union and have always been super hard on me about grades and athletics. In high school I was a pretty average student finishing with a 3.1 gpa but I was super good with numbers and math in general. But every minute and existence of high school  was horrible. I had friends and wasn’t bullied but that learning aspect and homework always was bad.  Obviously the pressure to go to college was huge from my parents and wasn’t really a choice thing so I apply to go to a D1 school.  Fast forward I got accepted and graduated high school so I was off to university. Everyone in my family and friends was so happy proud and of me. Everyone except for me.  I was sad, scared, and anxious to know I have to spend the next 4 years of my life wasting away in a school to get a piece of paper that didn’t need.  Two weeks before I lea...

I guess I should start this off with some background info that is essential to the fuck up. We live with his father and step mother. Normally in the morning, they’re both gone for work and it’ll just be me and my boyfriend home until we have to leave as well. This morning I was awake before my boyfriend, so I was getting ready for the day as I typically do. He woke up so I went over to bed to give him a kiss and say good morning. I started dragging my hands up and down his body, and he did the same as I’m speaking to him. This lead to us getting in the mood as we just started ripping our clothes off and getting into it. Normally we’re pretty quiet during sex to avoid making his dad and step mom hear us, but since we thought we were alone, we were EXTREMELY loud. We’re deep into it, and I’m moaning super loud as he pounds me, and then I hear from down the stairs “YOU GUYS KNOW I’M FUCKING HOME?!?” And it was his step mom screaming up the stairs, who is typically gone at this time. So...

I (f30) have a boyfriend of 3 years (we will call him Sam(m33) and in the beginning he lost his friend's group because of a fight so he was pretty alone but that wasn't really a problem as we were happy to do everything together. Anyway he was in the military years ago and sometimes talked about his time there and his buddy which we will call Leo (m30). I sometimes made jokes about their gayness for each other as they seemed to be really close. A few months back I wanted to surprise him and find Leos contact as I thought it would be nice if they could talk again as they lost contact over the last 10 years. I found him on Facebook and gave him Sam's email and he was excited and thanked me and told me he would write him. Sam was super happy to hear from him and was excited to meet up with him. He asked me if I wanted to come with him but I told him I could meet his buddy another time, they should use the time to talk and get to know each other again after all those years. ...

For a bit of context, I'm an 18 years old, and I live in a Muslim household. I've had a problem with my family's religion for many years now. I'd consider myself an atheist, or at the very least agnostic. I can't bring myself to believe one bit in any religion this world has to offer. For a long time that has been fine, I've been able to keep that a secret from my family, until today. While cleaning the house my mom found some alcohol I'd stashed away in the house and confronted me about it when I got home from uni. We had a long crying session and quite frankly a pretty frustrating argument whilst sobbing. It ended with her telling me to kind of, tidy myself up? so that my father wouldn't suspect anything when he came home. It seems like my mother is willing to ignore this, at least that's what it looked like today. Whether it be for her mental state's sake, mine or both. After all she had ended the topic telling me to just work hard on my st...
