TIFU by freezing while speaking to a Georgian girl

This happened to me on a family trip 5 days ago in Pamukkale, Turkey. I (30m), was sitting with my dad at a table at Cleopatra pool and waiting for the rest of my family to get out of the pool. I wasn't going into the pool since it was hot as hell and the water even hotter.

Then the most gorgeous girl I have EVER seen anywhere sat down next to me. She caught my eye when I saw her taking photos of artifacts at an archaeology museum minutes earlier. She was probably around 25 yo, wearing a tight black dress, having dark curly hair, the most perfectly done red lips ever (seriously, I normally consider red lips a kitschy cliche, but this was next level), a true natural beauty with perfect proportions, black eyes, perfect skin. Words can not describe how hot she was. Just wow!

Since my brain was going haywire I had to leave the table and go for a walk. After a couple of minutes, my dad came to me and said that she was really nice, that she offered him her lunch and spoke to him, but because the name of the country Georgia, where she was supposedly from, has a different name in our language and because my dad is as bright as Borat, he wanted I go speak to her and somewhat translate what is being said.

So I sat back down at the table and just turning my head to her felt like a lifetime. I ask her: "So you're from Georgia right?" She just answers "yes", and I go "nice, nicee". Her facial expression mirrored my own with a lag, it was a perfect mixture of forced smile and nervousness, with a pinch of sheer terror on top. I hoped she would still engage in the conversation, but no. I try again after a minute: “The Russians are occupying your country, aren't they?“ She again, says "Yes", while I am muttering "Interesting, interesting". Why did I say that, it is not interesting at all, it is sad and despicable. Awkward silence. She gets up and leaves minutes later saying quiet bye without touching her food afaik.

So many questions left unanswered. Who is she? What does she do? Does she work or study? Does she travel often?

Even yesterday when I was arranging my new work contract at a meeting with my employer I couldn't stop thinking of her. I have never felt so shattered in my life before, since I know I will never see her ever again.

*insert Call me by your name crying end scene gif*

TL;DR: My brain went blank and I lost control of my facial expressions while trying to speak to a perfect Georgian girl on vacation. Now I'm absolutely shattered.

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...
