TIFU by accidentally exposing myself cyber stalking my crush right in front of him

I 19f have a crush on my 25m co-worker and I don't know him well but we do have short little interactions. I have no idea why I like him so much, I have these such intense feelings for him for a year already and found myself in limerance over him. For the past year, ever since we started following each other on insta and liking my insta stories, I couldn't help but everday lurk through his Instagram followings and his LinkedIn account every once in a while.

Two days ago, I was playing my music at work but got bored of it, so I asked my crush for a song recommendation and he typed on my Spotify search bar his favorite song. However, it started with the first letter of his initial. I didn't think anything of it until I got home and re typed in that same song again. And when I typed the first letter of his initial, not only did his first name came up right up first but his full name came up multiple times from when I was trying to find out if he had spotify last week so I could check out his Spotify playlist. I'm not sure if he even has Spotify so the fact that his full name came up in my Spotify search bar is wild. After that incident, he just handed back my phone didn't say anything, just continued with his task then said bye, and left since his shift was over. I'm not sure if he did see his name appearing on my Spotify since it was the first thing that appeared and if I'm overthinking it, but it's two days later and I'm horrified right now and have no idea how to cope because that was so creepy and woke me up to a reality check to stop lurking him on social media. I'm now terrified to go back to work and don't ever want to face him again.

TL;DR: I asked my work crush for a song recommendation and allowed him to look up his fav song on my Spotify, however, the song started with the first initial of his name and the first thing that appeared was his full name multiple times. Now he knows that I've been lurking him on social media and I'm horrified to go back to work and see him.

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...
