TIFU: By listening in to a conversation my gf was having that I definitely shouldn't have heard

Disclaimer: Not putting ages or the correct initials for the people involved because I'm not sure if the friend has reddit or not. We're all college aged, lets just keep it at that.

A little back story

So I (FtM) and my girlfriend we'll call T, have been together for close to 3 years now. I mention that I'm trans because it's relevant to the story. Since starting HRT I've experienced low libido, and very rarely am I ever actually turned on anymore. We've talked about it several times, she says it's okay and that she can do nothing but accept it and support me. A couple months ago we go on a trip to see my family (we're across the country from them), and it's tense at first but we managed to get back into a rhythm and find our flow again. We had more sex during that time than we had had in months and even experimented a little bit. We found new things to try and enjoyed them all! Well, we fly back and I essentially just can't get it up anymore. We also recently moved in with each other and 2 roommates. We each have our own room as thats how the lease is set up.

Today

Tonight I was getting read for bed when I heard her hush talking on the phone in her room. Now, our walls are very thin and I could kind of hear what she was saying so I put my ear up to the wall and this is where I fucked up. She was talking to our mutual friend about how she just wants to fuck a man. I'm realizing lately that because I don't actually have a penis, it's hard for me to even want sex so this really stung. Our mutual friend (M) is mostly T's friend but we get along great still. Anyway, M is talking T through her options and mentions breaking up. This is where I found out she's been thinking about it for the last 2 months and is going to be having a conversation with me tomorrow night after we're both done with our classes. The last bit I couldn't quite hear, but from what I could this is what I understood: M was saying that if I reacted one way then go with one option and if I react another way then just break up with me. I get that not having sex is difficult for a lot of people and it's a necessary part of their relationships, but fuck man. I feel so defeated.

TL;DR: Girlfriend wants to fuck a man, and I can't provide it because I have low libido and am very dysphoric. She's thinking about breaking off a 3 year relationship because of it.

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 ...
