TIFU by eating chocolate covered pretzels

TIFU by going out and drinking

I didn’t really fuck up anything by going out and drinking last night, but itt just helped me realize that I have so many issues I need to work on fixing. last night i went out to the bars, drank and it wasn’t a fun night because for one I got a little too drunk and I was out way too late and I spent too much money. Anyways, heres where my real dilemma is. I got out of a long term relationship about a year ago and this just past year has been tye roughest year of my life. I lost all my friends, I lost my entire social circle and my self esteem and my confidence. That relationship drained me so much and I was so attached that everything i did was revolved around this girl. i let it control me. After we broke up it took so long for me to get over her and frankly, i’m still not over her. I feel as if everything I do is to distract myself from the fact that i’m not over her and i crave her 24/7. If i feel lonely bc i can’t be with her I go out with friends or smoke weed and drink. I try to get with other girls to try and get the feeling i had with her once before. I feel like i’m chasing something I shouldn’t be chasing. Whenever I get drunk I go on my phone and text a bunch of girls bc i get horny and i can’t text or call my ex because we are in no contact. and when I wake up in the morning i see my phone and i realize how desperate I look. I don’t enjoy going out and drinking and i don’t enjoy a lot of the things i have been doing in my life. I haven’t found any real enjoyment since this breakup and i feel like i’m chasing a feeling that i’ll never get from the way I live. After last night, I realized how bad it was when again i went on my phone and started texting girls at 3-4 am trying to link with them and in reality I don’t even want to do that. I feel and look so stupid, I feel lost when it comes to my life. I don’t have any enjoyment anymore and it feels like i don’t love myself and I miss my relationship. I don’t know how to deal with this. I made a decision last night that I plan on sticking until I feel better with myself. I know for a fact that my younger self would not be proud or look up to the things that I am doing now. I deleted all my socials because i feel like I need to disconnect with the world and do some more soul searching and find happiness with myself even if it means i’ll be lonely. I feel like i’m ruining my reputation by drunk texting girls and chasing something that in the end won’t give me what I want. I miss the feeling of being cared about, I miss the feeling of havibg someone by my side all the time, I miss the feeling and happiness of love, I miss the late night talks, I miss the facetime calls, I miss the late night drives, I miss the dates to get food, I miss not talking to anyone except her for weeks in a row bc shes all I ever needed. and Now that its gone i feel like theres nothing. How do I get better, how do i be happy with myself. Is love real? I don’t have anyone to talk to about this i don’t have anyone really by my side. That girl was the best thing that ever happened to me and She was all I ever needed and now that shes gone I can’t live with myself. Its been over a year and I feel like any normal person would be over a relationship that happened a year ago. I’m truly not okay and I’m quitting drinking alcohol, smoking weed, and nicotine because none of it makes me feel good anymore. Its pointless and I just miss my relationship so much I wanted to marry this girl and the fact that it feels like we are strangers now really hits me deep in my core.

TL;DR Still not over my past relationship which ended one year ago and my life feels meaningless and i’m just existing in this world. Distracting myself by doing things I know i shouldn’t be doing,

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...
