TIFU by leaving a bag of condoms out

TIFU. i get condoms every time i go to the clinic for std testing/getting my birth control. i think it’s good to keep on hand even tho my bf and i don’t use them very much, like if i screw up my pills on accident, which i’ve done before.

anyways, i was gone this morning for a meeting and my bf tidied up my place while i was gone, and he came across a bag that had my emergency contraceptive, birth control box, and the godforsaken condoms. i came home shortly after and on the way home he texted me about it. i was able to catch him before he left and i realized how serious he was about it. i didn’t quite understand why since they were all unopened, so in my mind less suspicious, but he seemed really hurt. he had brought up saturday, which was one of my days off and i wanted to spend some time by myself.

on saturday he asked to come over late that night, and i just wasn’t up to seeing anybody. i didn’t feel like tidying up my place or freshening up to see him, i was looking forward to a rare night in by myself, plus i had work early the next morning and because he works late, i would have to stay up late too. he wasn’t really happy to hear that, even after i explained that i was exhausted from the past week and that i’m a loner at heart.

so because of my insistence on being alone and finding the condoms, he thinks i’m seeing someone, and that they came over on saturday. i don’t really know what to do about this since 1) i’m not cheating 2) i would never even think of cheating, i’m not like that and 3) i love him and would never want to hurt him, even though i haven’t done anything to tarnish our relationship, i hate that this has hurt him and wish he would believe me.

now he isn’t really speaking with me, which i get. i hope some space/time will help it. i’ve given him permission to look through my things since i don’t have anything to hide.

so moral of the story, don’t leave condoms out! even if you’re not doing anything shady

TLDR: left a bag of condoms out, boyfriend thinks i’m cheating, i’m not but it looks pretty bad

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...
