TIFU by being socially awkward in front of the girl i like

For context I 30(M) i grew up only child with a single mother (so family dynamics is something unknown to me) im getting to know this girl (26F) has a child and lives with her big family lets call her N . We aren’t dating yet because she needs time we both need time to get to know each other and to see if i would be a good male figure in her babys life.

Now for the story of how i f*cked up today So i got a message from N that she wanted to get her nails done and wanted to see if im availabe to take care of her child while she did that because for some reason the baby stays and is better behaved with me than whith her family or her for that matter. So i told her yes that i would pick him up latter and so i did, I had him with me all of the afternoon while i was walking back to Ns house i bumped into her moms girlfriend (most sexist gay person I’ve met) and she starts laughing at me and says from now on your name is not so and so your name is the baby sitter (she used a degrading word for baby sitter used in my country). I got mad but mostly hurt so i turned back and went to the park with the baby while i calmed down so after a while i went back to Ns house and as i reached i saw N and her entire family sitting in the front yard, as soon as her moms girlfriend saw me she started shouting at me the same word she called me a while back. Something i forgot to say im bipolar so certain things trigger me so i got angry and told her i dont like being called names but with a very rude tone then i handed N the baby and i left about a hour after i received a txt from N step mom saying thats how family jokes around and that in that house they show love like that.
TL;DR got pissed of and had a fit in front of the girl i like because i didn’t understand how family dynamics work and that they were joking around

TIFU by forgetting my purse and attempting to get fuel

Not the craziest story but hey. I'm obligated to say this was a few months ago but I cringe every time I go past the petrol station . My petrol was getting low, not dangerously so but it said 27 miles left, (oftentimes it then suddenly drops to about 16 for example, and then 5 and then 0 very fast) I didnt have my purse on me as I just didn't need it... Picked my daughter up from school and then went on to collect my 2 stepdaughters from across town and then set off for home. En route the gauge went to 7 and then suddenly it was 1 so I stopped at the petrol station near our house. The petrol was on 0 as i pulled up to the pump and that's when I realised I had no money. I left the kids in the car at the pump and went in to talk to the cashier, it wasn't mega busy but there was a queue, I'd heard that they can help you if you can't pay for fuel. Like keeping something of yours as security. It was an elderly man and he basically refused to help. At this point i...

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 ...
