TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by getting injured at work

This was typed on a phone, sorry if the formatting is wrong. *This one is a little long (heads up).

Not sure really where to begin, but this possible FU started back in August (and is still happening today), when I (39 M) passed out at work (second shift warehouse environment), hitting my shoulder and head on a conveyor (like) belt. The initial diagnosis, simple mild concussion, solely on the fact that I didn't initially know what date it was, after being woken up from my work time nap. Nothing about my shoulder. 5 days later I finally get to see an occupational doctor, she gives me work restrictions (which my job could not accommodate) and physical therapy for my shoulder. Since they could not accommodate, I have been shelfed until the occupational doctor gets the results of an MRI on my shoulder (scheduled the second week of October).

Here's where I think I'm F-ing Up:

Since I am not working currently, I am home all day, with our (married to a 33 F) toddler. Fine no big deal, I am a dad, this is my responsibility. Now I'm am not disabled because of the work injury, and thanks to p.t. I'm definitely getting more range of motion back. I try to get done what I can. My issue is that, the amount that she does around the house has severely lessened, since I've been out of work. We have had a "whoever gets to the chore first, just gets it done" mentality, so no gender defined chores (as it should be IMO). It seems that since I am home literally all day, that I am (obviously) going to be the one to get to everything first. I feel like house hold chores went from 50/50 to 80/20. I have no issue if she's over loaded and just can't get something done. Fine, we have all been there. Before the injury, I'd still do my best to make sure that 1) the kitchen/dining room were clean 2) Living room clean (as clean as it can be having a toddler and a 7 year old). 3) Garbage/recycling taken out, everyday (before I'd leave for work), while having our toddler (no spot in daycare for him yet). Doing whatever I could to lighten the amount she'd have to do, while also caring for our kids, while I was at work.

For context we have been together for 10 years. So at this point, I've become used to the arrangement we have, regarding chores. These past 2 months, I feel like the arrangement has changed, solely on the fact that I am home all day. Am I still F-ing up, by continuing to do (almost) everything, so that way we can enjoy the evening as a family?

I know the obvious answer (have a conversation with her about it). The problem with that is, that she is going to take it as a personal attack, as opposed to being what it is, wanting help around the house. I tend to not talk about things such as this, because no matter how I approach her, I am left feeling like it's a "me" problem, not and "us" problem. She has even said to me, that she doesn't know how she is going to get things done, once I'm cleared to return to work.

TLDR: I got hurt at work, wife essentially stopped doing housework, since I am home all day recovering.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
