TIFUpdate by lying to my family about having a boyfriend

So long story short about a week ago I made a post in this sub saying I lied to my family and told them I had a boyfriend because they've been hounding me for YEARS to get one, specifically 3 of them Deb, Lola and Jenna (all fake names) and I couldn't handle the pressure anymore.

Yesterday I got a text from a friend of a friend linking me to that post asking if it was me. At first I was going to add to the web of lies and tell them no but before I could reply they said the story is too specific to not be about me and I finally came clean. Huge mistake.

Aforementioned friend of a friend, let's call her Dayna, told my entire family that I lied about having a boyfriend and they're all pretty pissed at me. Mostly for lying but more so the fact that I still don't have a boyfriend "at my age" (I said this in the last post but I'm literally 21 and they're acting as if I'm on my death bed). Also somehow Dayna found out the youtuber I was referring to based on his initials in the original post and told my family that as well and now they're being very judgmental about my taste in men which is really putting the nail in the coffin.

Anyways I doubt anyone will see this but I figured I'd make an update anyways I guess just for my own sake.

TL;DR I lied about having a boyfriend to my family members, they believed me at first, friend of a friend found my original post and told my family I lied now my family are pissed at me for lying and once again hounding me about not having a boyfriend

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...
