TIFU by chatting with an old coworker till 4am

So essentially a friend/old coworker (S) of mine who was visiting from out of town whom I haven’t seen in almost 2 years decided that we should hang out with another one of our old coworkers (J) whom I also haven’t seen in about a year. We all were talking til around 2 am in a random park, we were laughing and talking about old times about our shitty job we all used to work at and just having a generally great time.

I had left my phone in my car and my fiancé was trying to get ahold of me while also messaging my friend S, she responded and told him we were all just chilling at a park etc. this whole time I knew my fiancé had my location so he wouldn’t have to worry about stuff like that. Anyway we decide to drop S off back home because she has a train to catch in the morning and then it was just me and J. We used to be really close at our old job and would talk about saltwater fish keeping and whatnot.

He hasn’t seen me since forever and was asking me about my fiance and how are things. We decided to park on the roof of my current work place just to chill and talk, we were still strapped in with seat belts and had our arms crossed just chatting about life. At this point I hadn’t gotten a text from my fiance since 1am so I assumed he was sleeping so I didn’t want to bother him, I didn’t get a call or anything and since he had my location he would know I’m safe. So we’re talking and a car pulls up on us and it’s my fiance. He takes one look at us and gives me the finger and drives off. Then he comes back and starts calling me a cheating bitch and to come get my stuff from his place.

I obviously break down because what the hell? I was sitting in a car just talking about life and about him and how much we get along and the ups and the downs just general life updates. My fiance then calls me and was just saying really nasty things to me, so I kept telling him that nothing was happening and that he literally has the wrong idea and if he would have called or messaged me asking what I was doing parked at my work I would have told him.

Even J was trying to tell him that literally nothing was going on and that he pulled up on us sitting down and just talking. Anyway. Now my fiancé is convinced I’m a cheater, wants me out of his life and I don’t know how to get him to realize that literally nothing happened and we were just coworkers/friends catching up and lost track of time.

TL;DR my fiance thinks I’m a cheater when I was just chatting with a coworker that I haven’t seen or talked to in over a year about life updates.

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...
