TIFU by leaving my friend locked in a room.

The title is pretty self explicatory. In the college I study there's a student's association named Delegación de Estudiantes. If you are part of the group, you can use the private room they have. We pretty much use it to study, help other students or eat lunch, nothing else. We have a small couch in case anybody wants to rest for a bit. Another thing to keep in mind is that the college I study at closes at 9 pm.

Yesterday there were only three of us. Me (19M), my friend Oscar (19M) and my other friend Maria (19F). W e were studying there and Oscar fell asleep on the couch somewhere around 6 pm. He was having a rough day and hadn't slept all that well that day. Maria and I intended to leave somewhere around 7pm, and she wnated to wake him up before we left so he also left with us. I told her that we should just let him sleep a bit more, there are two avaliable set of keys to enter the room and the both of us (Oscar and I) have access to them.

She begrudgingly agreed, so at 7pm I left a key inside, so that he could get out once he woke up and nobody tried to steal his things (The room has a glass wall, so people can see everything from outside), turned of the lights, closed the window just in case anybody tried to get in and sent him a message telling him what I did. I just wanted him to rest, I knew other people from the association did the same, so I thought I was helping him.

Maria and I both went to our separate homes, and I fell shortly asleep, it wasn't exactly the best of days. I sent some messages to oscar and called him to see if he was okay, I had no answer so I fell asleep. I woke up around 2 am, saw that both of them had written me. She tod me that I scared the living shit out of him, that he was incredibly angry and that we had to talk seriously on Monday. He just wrote me "Don't you dare do that to me again.".

I wrote both of them that I genuinly didn't mean to either scare or harm him, just wanted to help, and that I understood if they wanted to rethink their relstion towards me. He wrote me 5 mins after that it wasn't that big a deal, but I know I fucked up greatly and he's angry at me. Maria also wrote back today, saying that I'm dumbass, should've listened to her and that I made a mistake but wouldn't stop being friends with me, but that on Monday we would talk. I don't know what to do know. I know that trying to contact them now won't do anything, seeing that she's ignoring the few messages I sent her. I'd appreciate some advice. I know I fuck up. I just want to fix things.

TL;DR: I fucked up by leaving my friend locked in a room sleeping when I should've just woken him up before we left.

TIFU by forgetting my purse and attempting to get fuel

Not the craziest story but hey. I'm obligated to say this was a few months ago but I cringe every time I go past the petrol station . My petrol was getting low, not dangerously so but it said 27 miles left, (oftentimes it then suddenly drops to about 16 for example, and then 5 and then 0 very fast) I didnt have my purse on me as I just didn't need it... Picked my daughter up from school and then went on to collect my 2 stepdaughters from across town and then set off for home. En route the gauge went to 7 and then suddenly it was 1 so I stopped at the petrol station near our house. The petrol was on 0 as i pulled up to the pump and that's when I realised I had no money. I left the kids in the car at the pump and went in to talk to the cashier, it wasn't mega busy but there was a queue, I'd heard that they can help you if you can't pay for fuel. Like keeping something of yours as security. It was an elderly man and he basically refused to help. At this point i...

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 ...
