TIFU by being obsessed with writing my signature perfectly

I (22M) have to start with a little background. I am quite a perfectionist but only for stupid shit like drawing my signature in the exact proportions I want. Because if that, whenever I'm bored, I practise and I don't stop untill I draw it the way I want. I can perfectly fill pages of with my signature out of obsession. I also like writing sometimes, it's not a hobby I'm passionate about nor I'm good at, but at times it feels good.

Everything started a few week ago. I was in a boring class with a professor I hated, so I started writing down mi signature. This time I got it faster than usual, so it only took half the sheet of paper. I was happy about it, but it also meant I had nothing to do to distract me from that horrible lesson, so I started remembering songs I liked in my head. At one point, a specific song came to my head, it was performed by Amaia, a Spanish singer, last Christmas. It had quite a medieval touch to it and it also reminded me about witches incantations when making potions, and, since it was a love song, it also reminded me of my boyfriend, so I started writing down. I'm going to translate it to you since it was in Spanish, so it may not make a lot of sense:

"Dust of bones, drops of my blood,

I summon the witches of this coven

let them conjure a link that tie you to me

and if I hurt you, may they come and kill me"

I folded the sheet of paper and save it inside a notebook, and didn't pay much attention to it.

Fast forward to last night, I went out with some friends to celebrate the master's degree was over. I was going to stay at my friend's house because we were going to a town not so far away. My boyfriend stayed home because he had to work. He had a bottle of nice beer his boos have him, so he drank a little bit. He was cleaning out the living room and, when he was going to put my notebook away, the sheet of paper feel to the floor. It's important to know he was a little drunk at this point.

So I came home this morning. We were cuddling until all of the sudden he tells me we had to talk. I was a little confused, and he said "I found your spell". I got more confused because I didn't know hat he was talking about. Then he started telling me he found a note, he thought I was into poetry and wanted to support me on that hobby, but then he saw multiple signatures. He searched on Google what it could mean, and it said that it was some kind of spell used in witchcraft to make someone love you. Then he proceeded to tell me I didn't need spells because he loves me a lot and that he would support me if I wanted to practise witchcraft.

I started laughing so hard, but I also felt a little embarrassed. I had forgotten about that sheet of paper and had no idea what he was talking about. Then I told him everything about how I write down my signature like an obsession and that I sometimes write stuff that comes to my mind, and that I don't cast spells. It was a funny moment, but I really was a little embarrassed because I don't really show anyone the things I write or my compulsive obsessions. But it was a good ending I guess.

TL;DR: I wrote in a sheet of paper a few lines that came to my mind and alsoy signature multiple times because I'm obsessed. My bf found out and thought I practised witchcraft.

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 ...
