TIFU by looking through my moms phone

My mom has two phones, one is for phone calls and texting and work and regular every day stuff, her second phone is a game phone, and she always leaves it home when she’s at work. I lost my phone and had been searching for it for about 40 minutes before i got her game phone, and i began trying to call myself from her phone.

None of her messaging/calling apps were able to call my number, so i opened her instagram (we follow each other there) to see if i could call myself that way. I opened her messages to try to find myself, but i couldnt find my account, nor any of her friends’ accounts or any other family members’ accounts. I really shouldnt have but i tapped on one of her chats with some stranger, and i read some messages of her flirting with this rando. She and my stepdad have been married for about seven years and dated for even longer. I have a stepsister that my stepdad cherishes also.

I went through the rest of her messages which were all pretty much the same, back and forth flirting as well as her lying about being in a fully committed relationship, back as far (and probably further) as 2020. Shes had some people request to meet up irl, and i have no idea what to do. My step dad deserves to know, even though hes done super shady stuff in the past. I couldnt have ever guessed my mom was doing this, maybe in the past but the whole family has been in a very good spot since the new year. My boyfriend said i should talk to her first, but i know she’ll be PISSED i went through her phone, even if i was just trying to find my phone. I count all of what i mentioned already as cheating, and im still not sure how long this has been going on. Am i wrong? Should i just forget abt it??

TLDR; i found my married mom’s flirtatious messages on instagram trying to find my phone, and i dont know what to do

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...
