TIFU by giving my friend a mental decline potentially.

Do NOT say anything rude to me or him, I'm not in the mood. And no, he did not directly say "THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT" or act attention-seeking or anything, I'm just thinking I fucked up.

I (19F) have this one friend online (18FtM). Let's call him "Brandon". Brandon is really sweet, and sometimes I do enjoy talking to him... but lately he's been pissing me off and making me unexplainably angry so I started acting dry to him.

You know, one-word responses, periods at the end of my messages, the usual.

Well, eventually, Brandon texted me, asking if I HATED him and if he did something wrong. I told him I don't care what he has to say, that he was disrespecting my boundaries by talking to me all the time instead of once a week or so, and that he was pissing me off and should please quit it and shut up.

Brandon got really upset, from what I can assume. He just texted "...Fine." even though I tried to be nice yet honest.

He hasn't spoken to me since, and I found a recent post of his saying that he was having a panic attack, he felt like a bad person, and another post saying he felt extremely depressed yet euphoric in a crazy way at the same time.

Is my friend just mentally ill? I'd like to think he is, I refuse to think it could have been my fault entirely just for being honest to him. I want to tell him everything's OK, but I'm already going without contact with him for now.

TL;DR: My (19F) friend (18FtM) has trauma and attachment issues along with various mental conditions. I told him he was pissing me off by texting me and how I really felt about our friendship, so he texted me a dry "...Fine." and stopped talking to me completely???? Then, I saw his posts, and he kept talking about being super euphoric but depressed and feeling guilty, and feeling crazy and all that??? It couldn't have been my fault but part of me thinks I fucked up.

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
