TIFU by losing my cellphone at the grocery store

TIFU by yelling swears at my nice mom with my kid in the car.

School pickup is a dangerous mess of cars going too fast from one million different lanes, and families trying to cross a busy road on top of it. Every day I'm trying not to cause or be offed by a car wreck and also not accidentally run down a family.

Today I picked up one kid from school and my mom picked up the other. I was leaving from one parking lot with one kid in my car, and my mom, from the lot across the busy street with my other kid in her car.

I say this with love and also frustration: my mom is someone who will make the simplest tasks infinitely difficult by trying to guess what the other person will want, and bending over backwards to try and make it easier for them. Except it always makes it harder. Every time.

So there we were, my mom and I, two cars waiting to turn across a busy four lane street. Cars flying by. People walking everywhere. Cars waiting behind me, for me to turn. I see my mom across the way. She needs to turn right so then I can turn left, as is the way of traffic rules. And turning right is pretty easy! But she won't do it, because she's waiting for me to turn left, which is very hard. She's trying to be nice. But it's making it impossible. It's already so hard to keep track of traffic flow and now she's adding this weird stressful layer instead of simply turning right. And now I'm going, and stopping, and going, and braking, on repeat, and am stuck in the street. Now cars are honking behind me, and also on sides of me. I can't turn and I can't stay put. Finally my mom turns right, with my daughter waving sweetly from the back seat. I turn left, finally.

I am literally shaking and realize after coming out of my fugue state that I've been screaming "Go! Mom! Fucking GO, Jesus CHRIST!" with my 7 year old, her grandchild, in the back seat. Also my other child and my mom also probably saw.

I never intentionally swear in front of them and definitely try not to lose my gd mind in front of them. But I did, and am pretty sure my daughter will tell her grandma all about it, if my mom couldn't see my reaction already. Sorry Mom. :(

TL;DR: My mom tried to be nice and almost got us all killed so I accidentally yelled at her in front of her grandchild.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
