TIFU by dying my hair even though my mom already said I shouldn't

So this all started yesterday. Everything was so stressful and nothing was going right for me. I(16F) had a headache and that thing where you feel like there's fluid on your nose similar to when you get shoved under water and it hurt.

So this morning, everything felt worse, my throat started hurting too and I could barely speak. So I thought..."I bought this hair dye yesterday, what if I just dye my hair so I could do something I can control for once?"

My mom(39F) didn't like it, when she saw me dying my hair blue, she said "it's your hair, it's your choice and it's your fault once all your hair fall out" after that, I knew she was angry. She's in the living room talking about how this is gonna ruin my hair more(because my hair was already damaged before I dyed it)

She kept saying that she told me multiple times that she's already told me multiple times that I should stop dying my hair. Now I feel guilty, she's mad and nothing is getting better.

I want to apologize to her but when I do, things just get worse and she says apologies can't fix what's already done. My dad can't be of any help because in situations like this, unfortunately he's emotionally unintelligent.

TL;DR: My mom told me multiple times to stop dying my damaged hair, I was having a rough day beforehand and decided to dye my hair to do something I can control and she obviously got mad.

Edit:‼️ TRIGGER WARNING ‼️we have a weird relationship with each other because her brother, my uncle sa'd me when I was young and I told her, she didn't believe me until 2 years later when I was 9. Her guilt probably turned into resentment overtime because I wouldn't forgive nor forget

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 making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
