TIFU by not shutting up and driving myself into being single

In traditional TIFU fashion, this was and ongoing thing that culminated to today, early hours today.
I am a bit of a homebody and my (ex) girlfriend liked to go out for a few drinks every now and then on weekends. In the beginning this was not a problem for me as it would usually only be for an hour or two and sometimes I would tag along just to socialize for a bit. Eventually she would invite her friend T(male) to hangout as well and then they would stay out later and later, usually until 1 or 2 am. I was kinda irritated at that but it was her own personal time and I didn't want to intrude. Soon you'll see where this is going as that got extended to 4, then 5, then 6, and lately 7am the morning after on weekends. Everytime she would come home to me and try to have sex with me. But knowing that she spent more time with T than myself I would usually, and saltiness, turn her down. This has continued for months now and at the beginning of this month I confronted her about how much time she spends with this guy. I said that it makes me uncomfortable that the bars close at 2 and that she heads over to his parents house. To which she said it's only for a few more drinks and to watch anime. What particularly hurt was that I had tried to get her to watch anime in the past but gave up after disinterest. As of two weeks ago, I asked her to chose me over T and she said she'll try but then began to hide texts, phone calls, and would now head out during the workweek for a few hours to watch anime with him. She says that this was only so she wouldn't miss out on the next episode. You can understand my anger at this and I asked her to choose me and her kids as now they had noticed and cried about missing her. Nothing changed, so I planned a way to get ahold of her phone and get proof. Well, I did it this very night after she passed out and I found my proof. My heart broke and began to beat out of my chest, it must have woken her as she looked at me with a blank face. I cried, my breathing was like a cold starting engine and told her that I can't be her boyfriend anymore. Unfortunately, that is fuckup number 1 for today and here is the other. I live in her house and don't have any savings to find a new place. I don't have friends near enough to couch crash or anything. I should have just shut up and planned a way out before all this but it kept eating at me.

TL;DR: I suspected that my girlfriend was cheating, found out and broke up with her, and am possibly going to be homeless with no savings.

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...
