TIFU by not giving my mom anything for her birthday

TIFU by not giving my mom anything for her birthday

Sorry that this post is a little long. I beg you to hear me out for a minute. Money wasn’t an issue but knowing what to get her was. I hate to admit it but I know very little about my mother and if I ask any other family member I get shit for not knowing. I spent a good amount of my childhood in my room so I didn’t know much. For the last 2 years, I made her breakfast before she went to work and she LOVED it, the year after it was a combined effort with me and my sister but our mom was out with our stepdad for 2 days but loved it when she got back. This year my sister was off to college and ordered our mom some flowers and chocolates, but for a month I was overthinking.

Thoughts that ran through my mind were, “Should I get her food?” “No, we both lost weight together and it might be insensitive”. “Should I buy her a back or a foot massager?” “No she has back issues and it might hurt her or she won’t use it”. “A rumba?” “Shit, they are expensive and she said she thinks sweeping is better”. I kept contradicting myself until I landed on a movie night, I could pay for any movie she wanted to see and we could watch it at home so she didn’t have to drive anywhere, she was legitimately excited about it, But when I got back from school my little brother (4) broke the TV. I was crushed and realized I had run out of time, I made her a card put a cool coin I found with a bat on it, and gave it to her. I forgot to make her a card earlier and it was rushed, she knew it. She was very disappointed and I was crushed, I’m thinking of going all out at Christmas for her to make it up even though it’s not the same. I’m getting criticism from all sides because I’m not good at gifts, I wanted to give her something she would like and be able to use if possible. I feel like I failed as a son.

Whenever she’s home from being out to sea I’ll try to figure out more about her and my asking to talk more about her seemed to brighten her mood. My Mom asked me if I wanted to fly to South Carolina for Thanksgiving, based on her body language it looked like she wanted to go, I didn’t even fight her on it and said yes even though I hate the state because I keep getting severely sick when I go there if I eat anything. My only condition was getting some type of allergy/nausea medicine.

TLDR: Thought too hard about what to give my Mom on her birthday, took too long, and ended up giving her nothing but a crappy card and a coin so my mom thinks I forgot, how can I do better in the future?

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...
