1661329946 | 1661357442 | t3_wwdzh3 | t5_2to41 | 39 | No-Background-16: TIFU by breaking my boyfriends glasses.
UPDATE: He just apologized to me and said he shouldn’t have yelled. Apparently i had also knocked over his contact lens case yesterday morning. The contact solution had fallen out, so all day at work his eyes were dry and irritating him. He could’ve twisted the cases tighter? But it’s over i guess, now i know why he said I “always do this”. But now after he apologized, I still feel uneasy. This little event and posting it is making me rethink the relationship. Who knows when he’ll snap at me again and for what reason? This time, it was pretty minor but made me feel so bad. Thank you to all that commented concerns and gave insights, it really helped. I know you all don’t know the entirety of the dynamic of our relationship, but from the parts I shared, it does feel comforting to know that I’m not the only one who thinks it’s off and that I don’t deserve that treatment.
Original post:
Today I knocked over my boyfriends glasses that were on the bathroom counter on accident and they fell on the floor. I picked them up but did not notice one of the lenses popped out. When my boyfriend got home, he took his contacts out and noticed the lens from his glasses were missing so he asked me to find it. I found it on the floor and I told him I had accidentally knocked the glasses off the counter but did not notice the lens came out and I apologized. He got so stressed out and started to put the lens back in. When he’s upset he always wants me to leave him alone. He even closed (more like slammed) the door to the bathroom shut to be alone in order to try and fix his glasses without me hovering. He did so for a while but still couldn’t get them in right I think. I kept apologizing and told him we’ll take it to get fixed in the morning and I’ll pay for it and he snapped “no” at me. He went outside without a word to find his old pair of glasses in storage, throwing his stuff around angrily. He couldn’t find them. I mentioned one more time I will take it to have it fixed tomorrow and he refused saying “I’m not going anywhere.” He can be very stubborn. He told me “this always happens”, but this is the first time I’ve dropped his glasses and so i don’t really understand what he means by that. That i always mess up his stuff?? This is the first time I’ve broken one of his things…
I feel really bad but definitely don’t think his reaction was called for. I know he’s just angry and needs to cool off but he also knows how sensitive I am and how easily i cry and that I didn’t purposely break his glasses. It’s an easy fix, glasses lenses can be put back in place, not like I stepped on them and broke the frames in half or broke the lens.
I cry very easily and i can’t stand him ignoring me, it will make me cry more and I know crying will make him more mad. I’ve been outside in the living room ever since because he won’t talk to me.
I’ve never posted on Reddit so i don’t really know what to expect, just needed to vent I guess.
TL;DR I accidentally knocked over my boyfriends glasses and the lens popped out. I apologized and said I will definitely pay and take them to get fixed and he snapped at me and refused. Now he won’t speak to me.
eternaborg: Get out of that situation. That is an incredibly minor mistake that he is way over reacting about. This sounds borderline emotionally Abusive.
No-Background-16: He has this history/pattern of reacting and treating me like this if we get into arguments. He even does it if we don’t get into arguments and he’s stressed about things unrelated to me. He’s gotten better about it, and hasn’t done it in a while. We’ve been really good lately haven’t fought at all in months I’d say and he’s been very calm. He has also had some very stressful life event happen but it’s finally over with and he doesn’t have to worry about it anymore. I know it’s a huge relief for him and it was the main factor of his stress, so I don’t understand where it’s coming from all of a sudden. I just don’t understand, he is usually so caring and considerate. We only have issues when it comes to his stress and taking it out on me. I know he can’t control his anger sometimes and he tells me he needs me to leave him alone, just the way he phrases it makes it worse for me and so I start to cry.
Sweet-Interview5620: If you think this is him reacting better then you need to run out of there. He has made you belive this is normal and his abusive behaviour is acceptable. I bet it’s not that you cry easily but that his manipulative abusive actions rightly up set youm but that he has gaslight you into thinking your too emotional and unreasonable instead of the truth.
In one short post there is so many red flags and you seem blind to them. Please look back over your whole relationship and instead of making excuses for his behaviour. Look at it clearly measuring the things he has done against wether you or your friends would ever do that to someone or even think it would ok in anyway for you to do this. If it’s a hard no it’s rude and I have more respect for people than that Get out of there.
I was in an abusive marriage for years before I realised my husband had been abusing me. He wouldn’t control me and say no to things instead he would emotionally manipulate me so I didn’t do them as it would upset him. He had me believing it was my decision when that was far from the truth. He would blow up and act like this over stupid things too. His reactions were so over the top that i couldn’t face days of it so did all I could to avoid triggering him. These reactions just like your partners were to train me to not go against him and that I’d be punished otherwise. Yet I’d never realised all this as I was too close to the situation and he always had excuses like he can’t help it, it’s his mental health or you caused this. I tell you know I seem so many similarities and you state this is him restrained and better than before, run out that door.
No-Background-16: I’m sorry you went through that. Yes, I definitely have a lot to think about as we just woke up and he’s continuing to not speak to me and he’s breathing (kind of like hyperventilating?) as he does when he’s stressed. I know i took away his vision but i can definitely go fix it but he’s refused and snapped at me multiple times about it I’m scared to even bring it up again. I’m not blind to it, i guess i just hoped it had ended once his stress had subsided and since it hasn’t happened in a while. But thank you for your comment, it really does make me think more about our relationship.
ouronlyangel: Exactly like u/sweet-interview5620 said. you're seeing that this is a common thing for him to do whenever he gets stressed out. You also shouldn't be scared to approach your bf because of what he might do. That just means that you're used to worse, and you shouldn't be! It also sounds like you're trying to do what you can to make it right, but he doesn't want to hear you out. I've been in a similar position for many years of my life with an authoritative figure, and no one should feel helpless like that. I'm really happy that you're open to looking at your relationship in a different light because you deserve the world.
Edit: I saw that you've also been sayibg that you guys haven't fought like "this" in a while, and that's something that I'm all too familiar with. It seems like after a fight happens, everything resets. But the reality is that your problems don't, and those underlying issues that you haven't worked through are just finding ways to reappear and remind you that they still exist. You shouldn't have to think that you were doing "so well" for months because that just leads to a downfall like this.
No-Background-16: Yeah.. this is all really helpful so thank you. I really wasn’t expecting to get any comments lol. He just apologized but I’m still feeling unsettled obviously.. definitely makes me more wary and realize it’s not normal behavior.

[removed]
Jankster79: If you love someone, friend or significant other, you let them have their space. Be happy for them and don't crave their attention when they are obviously busy with something else, or someone else. Your needs is not on their mind, that does not make them a bad friend - but it sure as hell make you a needy person. Live your own life for a while, while making sure to them you will be there if they ever need you. But don't get pissed if they don't, don't make demands to validate your friendship because you know what? Real friends don't do that.
SpinachMoney1446: also ive became distant with them for weeks up to a month bc i have thought they just needa space, ive became distant 3 times bc of that. and ive tried mulitple times to just let it go or just tried to not let my emotions get in the way of hanging out with them.im not needy this has been my 1st time in about 2 years ive told someone how i felt let alone whats bothering me. i havent demaned their validation i simply told them how i was felt i never told them anything besides the times i felt hurt. i am not mad am i upset and hurt.
Jankster79: Hi. Thank you for answering. As both you and others have pointed out I worded myself quite harse. I am sorry for that, I could've expressed myself much more polite than I did. Though I live by the example I stated above, I have to admit I am quite lonely. I just don't like to be the one who calls or initiate to meet up every single time so I choose to rather be alone at that point. Yeah I could say something, but I guess I have to much "pride" to do so. After thinking about it a few hours I guess you are right. You did good to stand your ground. I hope this reach you. And I hope everything turn out ok for you.
You too have a lovely day.
SpinachMoney1446: no its fine i dont mind it you spoke what you thought was right and thats okay everyone has different mind sets on things:) and it did go good they told me they are sorry and theyll give me space.

1661340776 | 1661427692 | t3_wwh4hz | t5_2to41 | 33 | JinxedNotDefault: TIFU by needing a crap at 3am
So let me add some context here, my entire family are night-owls (sister, me and fiance) aside from my mother. At around 3am I wasn’t feeling well and was really hot, I went to the bathroom for a crap. After a long and painful time on the toilet I was sweating and tired, so I was so excited to get back into bed with my fiance. After trudging my way to my bedroom door the handle wasn’t working, I shouted through the door to see if my fiance could open it from his side, alas I was trapped outside of my beautiful air conditioned room. Eventually my sister came out of her room and after about a half hour of removing the door handle and trying to force the mechanism open we ended up waking my mother. She tried her best bless her however her blood pressure dropped and she was rushed back to bed. So now it was my mother in bed, me sweating and unwell in the bathtub, and my sister left to break my fiance out of the bedroom. Another 10 minutes later I hear a loud thud and see that my sister ran into the door slamming it open and allowing me in. I quickly went to lay down and my mother was fine. My sister had a bit of a bruise but nevertheless this was quite possibly the worst evening crap I’ve ever had. And We still don’t have a door handle!
TL;DR my door got stuck shut and my sister had to break it down
AcrobaticSource3: > my door got stuck shut
Much better than your “backdoor” getting stuck shut, constipation is no joke. Be happy you crapped
JinxedNotDefault: Oh gosh that’s true! I’ve never experienced constipation before and I’m hoping I never do

1661345944 | 1661394261 | t3_wwiwvz | t5_2to41 | 56 | BigPositiveCrater: TIFU by telling by making an immature joke about my friend liking this girl. Turns out he had a crush and I may have ruined his chances
It feels like my entire life is a fuckup and my immature jokes may have ruined my friend's chances with someone else. I have this friend Kevin (fake name) who kept hanging out with this girl constantly. I started to make this running joke about him constantly hanging out with her. It was this inside joke where I would ask kevin, "are you gonna hang out with your very close friend?" which was implying if kevin was gonna hang out with Kevina
Now, this was all done in the name of fun but today I took things too far by making a joke about Kevin going to hang out with his very close friend aka Kevina in front of some other friends. This created a domino effect which led the entire class learning about Kevin having a crush supposed crush on Kevina, despite this only being a joke. The class took it as a fact rather than a joke, which led to Kevina not being willing to hang out with Kevin.
Oh, Kevin confessed he had a crush on her and I had hit the nail in the coffin and now this incident has caused their friendship to break.
I am an asshole that doesn't deserve to talk. If I had kept my mouth shut maybe this wouldn't have gone this far, maybe I should have just stfu and never joked about him hanging out with her no one would have gotten the wrong idea about them. Too bad, we are past the point of no return.
Uni life sucks I would rather just sit at home and play games. Hope yall are doing well
TL;DR I made a fake joke about this friend having a crush on this girl. Turns out he did have a crush on her and I ruined his chances with her
Dopecombatweasel: Maybe you should go straight to the girl and just be real about it?
Twll her Kevin gad no part in it. You saw them hanging out and werevmaking dumb jokes
Honestly if this really ruined his chance then it probably wpuldve never worked out anyway but we dont know the wholeatory
BigPositiveCrater: did that already. Kevin got a stigma of only hanging out with her for that particular reason. Infact Kevin had to tell the whole class unofficially that he didn't see her like that.
BigPositiveCrater: Uni is complicated.
Eien_ni_Hitori_de_ii: Bro this is uni?? What are these people doing??

[removed]
InfiniteCalendar1: I find it weird anyone would automatically assume someone is joking when they say they’re going to travel.
dramignophyte: I've had people make plans with me (at the bar so...) Then when I try to follow through they flake then they keep insisting they want to do the plan then I try to follow through then after a couple of weeks they get all angsty about how weird it is that I tried following through and they just don't really want to do the thing despite having personally brought the thing up myself exactly zero times. Four times this year. So I agree with you that it's weird but it's painfully plausible.
InfiniteCalendar1: I honestly get this, I tried to plan a couple of beach trips this summer and I’m pretty sure I’m the only one who took it seriously. The one that happens I ended up not going because of covid and there was supposed to be more than a few people but it ended up just being two of my friends going. And I tried to plan a beach day and when I was asking what was up for the days leading up, everyone was unresponsive. For me I guess I didn’t think of it as a joke but more so I took it more seriously than anyone else I tried to involve.
dramignophyte: I call them "coke plans" whenever someone is excited and wants to do things that everyone knows they wont want to do once they lose that energy. I call it coke plans because thats usually the cause (I don't do that which us probably why I actually try to follow through...) But I use it anytime that happens drugs or not. It legit happens so often that I have told my coke plans thing more times than I remember.
ThrobbinGoblin: And now *I'll* be telling people about your coke plans thing more times I can remember, because that's a fucking perfect analogy and I'm going to use it for now on.
Coke plans happen because people want to talk about being better or doing more, but don't want to actually do it. Just talking about it releases dopamine enough, and the actual doing of the thing might involve some discomfort, so then they flake when the "doing" part arrives. That attitude can be attributed to a lot of society's ills, I imagine.
dramignophyte: 100000% I always joke that peoples favorite thing to do on coke is talk about quitting coke. Everytime I'm at the bar and someones like "want a bump?" And I say "No thanks I don't do that but you do you :)." They will always tell me about how they plan to quit doing coke. Talking about something is way easier than actually doing it. This may be why I have so much anxiety about wasting my life away not always being productive every single day. I feel like saying I did something comes off the same for lots of people as talking about planning to do something so if I don't have something cool from the past week it feels like It doesn't count. Now if these jerks would follow through I wouldn't need to do so much stuff alone -.- I don't let the doing stuff alone isn't safe thing stop me so there is a 50/50 chance when I die it will be a slow agonizing one laying half crippled in a forest somewhere or drown.
ThrobbinGoblin: That's why I hike and swim near strangers and roll my dice with them being around and also not being ax murderers themselves 😅
ChickenTenderDinner: I can never make hiking homies because I know I hate when someone sets up camp right next to me.
dramignophyte: For year I would make friends and they would be like "yeah, we hike" then I would be like "yeah, but I do intense hikes" and they would be like "pft, I'm hardcore." then every time we got to one of my hiking spots, the second they saw no trail, despite me telling them up and down exactly what was going to happen, they started to complain. "Do you know where we are going? Are you sure? I don't know what's going on, so I'm pretty sure you don't either, I think we are lost..." Like... while we can still see the highway through the tree line.
I have some hiking stories...
ThrobbinGoblin: 😂 this is why I'm glad to have an enthusiastic and adventurous kid to drag to the backwoods with me.

1661349229 | 1661368718 | t3_wwk6to | t5_2to41 | 74 | SnooAvocados8504: TIFU by saying that my favourite movie is cujo on Facebook
For starters I’m not going to say that cujo is a bad film but it certainly isn’t my favourite. About 2 weeks ago my family decided that we wanted to watch a movie on the projector we have out side, but after a few minutes of struggling to set it up then finding a movie we all wanted to watch we settled on watching the Stephen king horror: Cujo. At some point at the start of the movie my mother decided that she would take a photo of the movie on the projector and post it to Facebook. Not long after her posting the photo someone that we know commented asking if we was watching cujo, now we were all a bit confused how he managed to tell the movie was cujo from one picture but I respond to his comment by saying that yes it was cujo and then my mum asked how he knew it was cujo and then I jokingly asked wether it was his favourite film or not, he said it wasn’t his favourite film but it was a good one, and then I thinking it would be funny commented “cujo is my favourite film.” Now I thought nothing of this until last week I was in the car and I got a message from my mum saying that there was a package for me at home and I was confused as I hadn’t ordered anything, so when I got home I opened the package to see it was a cujo figurine which was relatively expensive (~£50) that was gifted to me from the guy. Turns out he collects horror movie figurines and wholeheartedly believed that my favourite film was cujo. He messaged my mother saying that he had the figure lying around somewhere in a box and wanted it to go to a home where “it is appreciated”. So now I have to pretend for the rest of my life that my favourite film is cujo.
TL;DR - I made a stupid joke to a man on Facebook about my favourite movie being cujo, he sent me and £50 cujo figure now I have to pretend my favourite movie is cujo
edward503: I hope you thanked that wonderful man! Well, you will now forever be known as the guy who’s favorite movie is Cujo. Also, you now have to name your first/next child “Cujo”. Those are the rules.
SnooAvocados8504: I thanked him via message and real life and yes of course I’m planning to call my future kid cujo because of this
UnbelievableTxn6969: Curtis Joseph.
SnooAvocados8504: It’s perfect

TL;DR I couldn't complete preparation for my presentation on time because I was wrong about the meeting time and it started earlier. I felt like a stupid.
I work in offshore time. And meetings are scheduled at morning onshore time which is evening/night for me. And most meetings end after 12 am my time. So, the meeting schedule will be displayed in the next day's list also. Today I was the only one who was going to give a presentation in the call. I saw yesterday meeting start time and thought it was today's meeting. Today's meeting is apparently 2 hours earlier than yesterday's meeting. So, meeting starts at time and I was shocked and haven't completely prepared all the tasks. But anyways, started with the presentation and everything goes well for a while. And when it comes to the last task, what I've prepared was completely wrong. I did not have the time to cross check the actual data given. I felt like a complete stupid infront of business. It was very simple thing that i could have copied from existing data. I struggled and somehow completed with so many mistakes and everyone correcting them.. Even got an appreciation for the presentation. Still feeling really bad about the last task.TL;DR I couldn't complete preparation for my presentation on time because I was wrong about the meeting time and it started earlier. I felt like a stupid.
rtosser: Don't feel bad, I made the same kind of mistake recently. Started a new job, had some intro meetings set up. Get on the call a few minutes early, and 10 past the meeting time the other guy hasn't shown up.
So I cancel the meeting with a note saying 'Looks like you were busy, so we'll reschedule.'
I get an email 30 seconds later with a terse "Meeting doesn't start for 15 minutes."
D'oh.
being_me14: The thing is I've been working past my actual work time everyday because of too much workload for the past 3 months. I feel burned out sometimes. May be that's why I messed up.
rtosser: We all make mistakes. If you're feeling burned out take some time for yourself.

So it's been a minute since I've (23 f) uh..enjoyed some alone time since I've been on my period and can't stand the smell of blood. Well, my period ended today and so I decided I enjoyed some real fun after and awful week and broke out my trusted vibrator. Well it was *real* fun...till I stopped. The second the bliss was gone I felt Satan himself pinch my ass. I've done this once before so I figured it'd go away if I just stood up and stretched a little. Boy was I wrong because satan only gripped harder and twisted. Somehow, I managed to pull a muscle in my *ass* so bad I can not walk or stand up without wincing and groaning in pain.

Jscix1: Incoming post by OP on r/TwoXChromosomes about how toxic Reddit is.
​
"I made a crude sexual humor joke on reddit, and people thought it was ok to post crude sexual jokes as a response", this is unacceptable, men blah blah blah blah...
NHDraven: I was banned from there for a post with over 2k upvotes for telling a lesbian she wasn't entitled to her ex's company that she had made uncomfortable. I likened her behavior to a man becoming angry that he was rejected by a woman. The mods decided it was "homophobic".
timm1blr: Comparing a lesbian to a man is kinda homophobic.
NHDraven: I compared how a straight woman might react to a lesbian in the same way that she might react to a man. In this context, she might not want to change in front of either because she doesn't want to feel objectified (even if the original OP isn't, that doesn't mean the woman isn't allowed to feel that way. ) I don't understand how you can twist that to imply homophobia?
timm1blr: Even what you said there is homophobic. I haven't read your original post, but this comment basically states that because a woman is same sex attracted, she must be into every woman that walks by or shares a space with her.
The way this woman feels is based in homophobia.
I'm fully expecting to be down voted.
No_North_8522: It's also heterophobic because it also "basically states" that because man is different sex attracted he must be into every woman that walks by or shares a space with him. The way women feel, by and large, must be based on heterophobia then (using only your logic here)

TIFU by checking a message on my phone while cycling
This morning I went to visit a friend at the company he works. He wasn't there, so his boss offered me a coffee to take with me on the road. Outside I took my bike, held the coffee in my hand and send a picture to my friend to let him know he missed me.
He texted back in 2 minutes, while I was cycling. I still had my cup of coffee in my left hand, while grabbing my phone with my right. As you could imagine cycling didn't go that well anymore, but I managed to get forward.
He had send me a sad face picture and while I try to respond a police car rushes of the small grass area next to the bicycle lane and blocks my way. A cop steps out of his car smiling and leaves within not more then 5 mines. I got a fine for cycling with a phone in my hand. The amount is €140,- euros. I've been mad a the world the whole day.
TL;DR: I got a €140,- euro fine for cycling with my phone in my hand, cause a friend texted he missed me.
johndeerdrew: Wtf? That's a thing? Wow never heard of that one.
AcrobaticSource3: Yeah, in Europe you can do a lot of things cycling, but being on your phone is not one of them
johndeerdrew: Hmm I'm not saying it is a smart thing to do but I can't see it being fine worthy either. In a car yeah you are gonna eventually kill somebody. But on a bicycle the worst you can do is run out into traffic and get yourself killed. Idk maybe Europe has some kind of crazy fast bike that can kill people or something. What do I know? I'm just an American.
sausages1234567: Nah. If the cyclist isn't paying attention, pulls out in traffic, and causes a HGV to swerve (on a shitty, thin European road) and that subsequently hits a pedestrian ... who started that chain of events?
johndeerdrew: What is a hgv?
sausages1234567: Heavy Goods Vehicle. Truck with a trucker driving.

My best friend (19F) recently noticed that her boyfriend (20) best friend is basically her, but male. Whitch, to be fair, is true. After that, her boyfriend does not know peace.
She teases him to no end about how "he has a type". It's all in good fun, they love to tease each other and I am sure it is extra fun to her this time cause he usually has the upper hand.
Anyway, the boyfriend and I (19) get along really well (that's expected considering that I am his close friend, I was the one that introduced them). Today during lunch we were talking and he was telling me how weird he was feeling over the fact that his best friend has the same personality as his girlfriend.
I, without really thinking, told him that, well, my best friend also has a type considering that all of her past boyfriends (and her current one) are me.
They all like the same stuff as me, have the same hobbies, eat the same shit, dress the same, have the same temper, and have the same personality traits. Him and I in particular not only went to the same school as kids, but have the same dye color hair.
Now, she sent me a message telling me that I shouldn't have spilled the beans, cause the one that does not know peace now is her.
tl;dr - TIFU by telling my best friend's bf that we are basically the same person causing him to tease her to no end.
Spiritual_Poo: The hair, it's blue, isn't it?
I hadn't noticed it, I used to dye my hair when I was young and cool, but the other day at lunch my dad who's in his sixties asked why so many woman have blue hair. He said like every third or so one to walk by had blue hair and now i'm noticing them too lol. The restaurant was at the mall idk maybe that's a factor.
Mundane-Ad-111: sorry to disapoint, but the hair is red ejjrhrjehnjheqnenjen
[deleted]: this whole story didn’t make sense. can you check and maybe edit it? or explain. im still very confused as to how he’s teasing her that’s so bad?

polarity88: Not going to lie, I thought it was my husband's dick. Then since I recently found out that he's been in a relationship with the babysitter for the last 3 years, and noticed your comments in r/nonmonogamy I really wondered if they were his. Probably not, but it can reassure him that they look alot alike.
currentlyintheclouds: People who are poly are not inherently cheaters. Please work on yourself and your relationship before making judgements. You sound paranoid, which I understand given your situation, but still ....
polarity88: No judgements were being made. All I was saying was her man's dick and my man's dick look alike. If it makes him feel better. For a brief moment I thought maybe it was my man's dick, but that was a passing moment because of all in dealing with. No judgement at all. Thanks for the advice, not sure why the down votes are happening. Guess its just one more thing I'm doing wrong.

1661379419 | 1661400558 | t3_wwwih5 | t5_2to41 | 40 | ThrowawayMoviesBlurp: TIFU by being oblivious at the movies
TIFU by being oblivious… but this was last week. On mobile, long time lurker first time poster, English is my first language I’m just shit at it so you can roast me
So I’m away on a month long holiday with my sibling. We end up having a week long adventure through Scotland with sibling’s friend and stop at a range of places along the way. One of which is Glasgow.
Now, I really like movies (so much so I have a film degree), and has been really sad to miss a big horror comedy that came out recently. So I convinced the others we should watch it and we end up going to an adorable little cinema a little while away from where we were staying.
Get there, order tickets and the server randomly threw on a discount. Confused me but alright, their mistake or they’re feeling very generous to us for some reason. We have a while to kill before the movie so we have a drink before getting snacks.
When we get the snacks, I somehow end up oblivious to the server offering a bunch of extra stuff for us three and it didn’t hit me until he offered to walk my food into the cinema, and free candy floss, and his co worker laughing at his generosity, that he was potentially into me.
By the time the movie was over (and I was a bit more mentally prepared to try start a conversation) he was gone and I had to leave the next day.
Alas, every day since I have wondered what life may have been if I was less oblivious. Knowing it would probably be quite similar as I live on the other side of the world but hoping to somehow encounter him again in my life.
TL:DR: movie worker kept giving me free things and I didn’t realise till after he finished work that he may have been into me.
chucksef: Hey it's me the movie server guy or whatever.
ThrowawayMoviesBlurp: Omf for real??
chucksef: Yeah i love movies and Scotland and working in the service industry and.. haggis.
phezhead: I call shenanigans. You didn't mention bagpipes

Story time, We we’re chilling at his house with friends, and when I reach for the remote, my left index finger touches a wart on his elbow. I get chills every time thinking about it from how *furry* it felt. Well I promptly freak the f out cause idk what it was that I touched and he says it’s a wart which makes it even worse! Friend tells me that they’re not contagious (they very most definitely are Andrew!) after a quick google to confirm and going to the bathroom to viciously scrub my finger like a horny teen with his wiener on December 1st. I went back to sit back down and google what to do next, and now that I’m very conscious of the wart on his elbow I start glancing, and he is PICKING AT IT ALL THE TIME! So that means everything that I’ve been touching, the remote, the bowls, even the table from where its TOUCHING! I’m back at home after a shower and rubbing my finger like a pencil sharpener with a towel. It doesn’t help that I play multiple instruments and all of them involve my left index finger as a vital piece. I honesty don’t know what to do and my finger feels dirty all the time now and I don’t want to touch anything with it. The reason why I’m posting it here for advice instead of r/ask Reddit is because they would consider it too google able of an answer hen all google says is it’ll pop up in about 2-6 months and it’ll get rid of itself eventually. My friend doesn’t have an HVP so it’s not that. Pls help.
TL:DR- I accidentally touched my friend’s wart and now I’m having a crisis and how to deal with it.

1661393895 | 1661493899 | t3_wx1wwf | t5_2to41 | 8 | Sharp_Contact4582: Tifu by going back just one last time to a store
(Throw away account) I’m 14 and sorta got caught stealing plz help me
Okay I’m not saying what I do is right but I’m 14 and yk tbh sorta trying to impress my friends a little but that’s not the point. Earlier today I was yk stealing and ended up coming back to that store 3 times in same day stole drinks alcohol food hot wheels dumb shit and they have a security officer that I’ve never seen before cause ig they found out the other 2 were horrible and didn’t even do there job but so we’re about to leave when we get stopped by the guard in a isle and says give me those whatever I had in my hand and she starts telling us to empty are pockets and we did and found nothing it was all in my bag but she’s like telling us to get the fuck out and like we’re pretty sure she knew what we were doing and I’m scared they will have a picture of us or something and my mom constantly goes to the store am I fucked? TL;DR
ranamok: You got lucky. Really lucky. You ever hear the term don't shit where you eat? Don't go back. For at least a year. If you have to go back with your mom for whatever reason, find a good reason to wait outside.
You're 14 and it's okay to make stupid mistakes but - quit stealing. It's not courageous, it's cowardly and if you get caught by the right asshole, your life is fucked. At 14. What a waste.
Get some friends who aren't impressed by theft and have a great life.
Sharp_Contact4582: Thank you for the help but I’m not sure like what to do I can’t just tell my mom to suck it and like I have to go there pretty often with my mom if I wait a few months will they just forget about me or am I truly just done for?
ranamok: Odds are slim they're going to print still shots from the cameras and paper the place. You're lucky it's a new security guard who probably doesn't know your slippery finger tendencies. Change your look if you have to go back. Wear a hat, or don't if you had one one. Be a broody teen and keep your eyes down. Hold your mom's hand? Might not be cool at 14 but no guard is gonna approach a mom about a kid who's holding her hand. Lol. Or come clean to your mom and deal with those consequences instead.
Just please learn something from this.
Sharp_Contact4582: Yeah I’ve learned that at least I always hid behind a pillar with no camera sight when I stole and yk also I probably shouldn’t shit where I eat and also just shouldn’t really steal bc thinking about it now I got real lucky they didn’t tell me to take off my bag or even pursue me in any way and was mostly looking at my 15 year old friend who’s 6’3 and lives like an hour away so
ranamok: Look, the reason you shouldn't steal isn't because you might get caught - it is because you're stealing the fruits of another person's labour. Something that someone else worked to earn. Even if it's a faceless greedy corporation that steals from society through corporate welfare, it doesn't justify debasing yourself to stealing. Some people will down vote the hell out me and berate me for suggesting this but read Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. That's a book that will teach you about hard work and personal value. It's not perfect. Nothing is, just take what you need from it. It's a big long tough read for a 14 year old, but you can do it. Plus it's so bloody long it'll keep you out of trouble for a good long while.
Sharp_Contact4582: Alr thanks I’ll read a couple pages and see how I like it

[removed]
Live-Aspect-9394: I play a lot of online games and this isn’t rare. I’ve always been super paranoid online because guys can turn creepy so fast. I’ve seen it happen so many times. Most girls stop playing snd delete social media.
Chandler15: Man, as a guy, it’s so terrible when everyone is chillin’ then a girl talks and they all get horny brain for some reason and simp or abuse her. It’s so dumb, like, just let everyone chill regardless of who they are.
Xx_PandaBunny_xX: THIS! I had to stop playing COD for a while due to so many random people trying to flirt or outright put me down. Hearing things that ranged from “I’ll track down your address and fk you in your sleep, you sound so hot.” to “Everyone better expect to lose because we have to carry the girl on our team.” It’s annoying af. Though I do take pride in showing them up when I can.
Chandler15: Heck ya, you show ‘em. Sorry you have to deal with such terrible people though. I don’t typically listen to voice chats because most people voice chatting end up being some type of degenerate.
Xx_PandaBunny_xX: I’m usually gaming with my friends and we all play on different systems (Xbox, PS, and PC) so we have to use game chat. Otherwise I wouldn’t use it at all. I don’t mind the randomness most times. You get the hang of sh** talking and most shut up after that. It’s when it’s continuous that it bothers me and I get off to switch games.
Chandler15: Isn’t there some way you could get around using in game voice? Like Discord or something? But you know to get off the game if it gets to be too much, which sucks, but it’s smart.
Xx_PandaBunny_xX: We could, but not everyone uses discord or knows how it works. Since none of us live near each other (all in different states) it becomes a bit of a pain to explain. Just because the main person is more of a visual learner and can barely use FaceTime. 😅
Chandler15: Ah, that’s rough, well, I hope gaming communities just get better and stop being so toxic.

1661396355 | 1661397331 | t3_wx2rkf | t5_2to41 | 4 | DiaBlox558: TIFU by continuing to smoke after a filling fell
For context I’m a 17 year old Canadian, I smoked daily for all summer, on average half an ounce per week. It first started when my only filling fell during a sesh. I then innocently went on the internet and checked how bad it was. A lot of people had it happen to them and it wasn’t that bad, but it still said to not do it since it would further deteriorate my teeth. For me thats what they always say about smoking in general. So I stopped for that night and booked an appointment to fix it. One week later, I maybe smoked 2-3 times and in little quantities compared to usual but after I last smoked I felt small chunks of my teeth falling it hurt so bad I could hardly brush my teeth. I called again to ask if it was possible to forward my appointment and luckily they had a cancellation and a spot was open for the next day. The dentist basically told me after the radiology that about 20% of my teeth fell and I would have to deal with hypersensitivity for all my life. There wasn’t much he could he just drilled some of my teeth to equal it out and he then proceeded to apply something freezing cold on my teeth but a couple hours later it helped the pain. So now I’m a 17 years old with fucked teeth genetics that made the worst life decisions I could and destroyed my teeth for good. So to everyone out there drugs can ruin your life in more than one way be smart about it.
TL;DR I smoked weed all summer lost about 20% of every tooth and will deal with hypersensitivity all my life
UPDATE: I shouldve included a bit more backstory about my teeth, ive always had shitty teeth I got cavities easily as a kid its purely genetic since my mom and younger brother are like that too(older brother got lucky)
JaTheRed: You were smoking meth lmao. An oz a week for a summer ain't shit.
DiaBlox558: Nah nothing too chemical I always had cavities easily even when i was brushing correctly. Its mainly genetics and the smoke worsened it

1661399036 | 1661464425 | t3_wx3o6j | t5_2to41 | 17 | Whinfp: TIFU I think the guy in the university dorm next to mine might have caught me jerking off to weird hentai. Please read all the way before answering.
So this has literally just happened. I live in the freshman dorms at Arkansas State University. How it works is that you have your own rooms yet every two dorms share a bathroom. So I don’t have a roommate but rather a neighbor you share a bathroom with. I think it was done to save costs and space. So instead of having each dorm have a bathroom, every two dorms share a bathroom.
So I had just showered and as a hormonal 19 year-old I was pretty horny. It was after a long day of classes and walking on campus. I was kind of worked up. So I went into my room picked up the iPad I’m using now and googled “futa on male mother son.” I’m a bi guy who likes MILFs, incest (as a taboo theme in porn and erotica not in real life), and cock. So a voluptuous and busty mature woman with a 12 inch cock fucking the absolute dog shit out of her son’s ass and mouth filling both up with unhuman amounts of cum? Yes please!
I was getting off to them, imagining I was the guy in the drawings. I was enjoying myself. Then I cum. Then I could clearly hear flushing from the toilet. I turned around and realized I left the door wide open! While I was choking the chicken he was going to the bathroom with my door open! My bed was facing in a direction that if you were looking out of that door you would have clearly seen me doing the devil’s hand shake and what I was doing it too.
So there is a good chance he saw me and the sick shit I get off to. And I was only in my boxers (When masturbating I don’t take off my boxers I stead slip my hand in and stroke until I nut in my boxers. Is that weird?) so there was no doubt about what was going on. I hope he didn’t see me. I’m too scared to ask. What do I do?
TL;DR: I live in a university dorm with neighbors. After showering I unknowingly left the door to the shared bathroom between my neighbor’s dorm and mine open. I proceeded to masturbate to futa-mother-on-male-son hentai. Only after I came did I realize I left the door open and while I was masturbating he was going to the bathroom. So there’s a chance he saw me and what I was getting off to. So there’s a chance my neighbor saw me pleasuring myself and also knows about the sick shit I’m into.
Bertscern: Why is no one bringing up the fact dudes over here intentionally creaming in his underwear?
I mean, whatever floats your boat, but didn't you say you live in a dorm? So I'm assuming there's some sort of communal area for doing laundry? So that means you're taking your jizz encrusted underwear and cleaning it in machines that everyone else uses, which is pretty gross and disrespectful...
Just use a kleenex or get a diaper.
Whinfp: But who knows what’s on everyone else’s laundry.
Bertscern: Doubt many people are putting washloads of their own load in, dude.
Whinfp: Well most men I know nut on towels. So why are boxers so different?

lecherro: Well this is called learning a lesson. You're trying to rationalize your behavior to yourself, and the conflict here is that even you know it was wrong, and you're not believing your own BS excuse. As far as the consequences, this spells on where you live. Certain starts leave it up to the store to handle this,which is kind of what it sounds like they are doing. Some states may require an arrest. Either way,they aren't going to Google your name and family. They won't call your mom and dad. Other than making a record if it, i almost guarantee that they aren't even thinking annoy it any more. So... Get your act together,stay out of thier store and go on. They Will.
No-Programmer-6324: I think you’re right, I know it was bad, and these are probably excuses, I just want to know how to stop this itch every time I get frustrated
Thank you for the advice on the pictures, I guess sometime i have to get out from my own head and realize I’m not that important.
I was only concerned because the police officer said he would try to get the supervisor to delete the pictures in a few days or weeks, so I started to get concerned. And they have my full name, I live in a country where blackmail is easy and my family’s whole information can be found out by googling out last name, it’s literally the first thing that pops up
And i don’t wanna put them through that
lecherro: Learn to recognize the "itch" and when you feel the need to scratch it, remove yourself from the situation. If that soda pop can is calling you're name and you don't have the money for it, simply leave the store. Some people are true kleptomaniacs. But they are rare cases. The fact that you want to get rid of the itch,is probably a good sign that you're not a kleptomaniac. Use that self control and get away from the circumstance that you're in when you feel the itch starting. Good luck. Also remember, lots of the time,the chips will take you in for Larson. Then you have to call someone to bail you out.
No-Programmer-6324: Thank you so much for being direct and kind, and for the really helpful tip, I’ll try my hardest to never have this happen again.

1661408019 | 1661413756 | t3_wx6fot | t5_2to41 | 4 | FL3RN: TIFU by dropping my phone in the toilet *HELP*
Let me start by stating how neurotic I am about hygiene... Very...
Now that we are passed that, I dropped my phone in the "terlett" today... Instinctively going against what I stated just a second ago I immediately plunged my hand into the toilet and snatched it out! Moving quickly and efficiently I washed my hands and then proceeded to put on rubber gloves (smh) got some lysol wipes and wiped the phone down to the best of my ability...
I then put the phone in a bag of rice. Some time later, upon removing said phone from the bag of rice I once again wiped it down with a lysol wipe and with tweezers removed a few grains of rice from the ports..
\*\*Here is where you guys/gals come in\*\*
I want to throw this phone in the garbage so bad because its so hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that this phone was in the toilet and I am going to be putting it up to my face.... I cant shake the thought of how gross that is...
(Gross Warning) To clarify, I had just recently gone poo.... I flushed said poo!
Then, I used my wet wipes for one more wipe of the booty and tossed that in the toilet... Thats when I went to pick up my phone and it slipped out of my hand right into the toilet.... Given the steps that I took what do you think? I dont want to get sick :( Its really bothering me mentally. So much so that my phone is currently in a ziplock bag and I am using it through the bag... Its my new case! lol \*if i dont laugh ill cry\* someone please help ease my anxiety, do you think it is safe for me to continue on using this phone?
TL;DR - Phone fell in toilet, took necessary steps to disinfect, scared to continue using phone, help ease my anxieties? <3
PICKLESARECOOL12: get a new screen protector I know that's money but still also get a new case
FL3RN: case in garbage, no screen protector to speak of lolol

1661407981 | 1661447481 | t3_wx6fbf | t5_2to41 | 2,219 | Buzzlightyearsprego: TIFU by sleeping in
[removed]
OMGoblin: You didn't do anything wrong, well sleeping in past your responsibilities was a mess-up but not one that you should have ever been hit for, you didn't do anything wrong in your response since then.
&#x200B;
Your mother is the only one responding to this appropriately. IDK what you meant by your conversation with your sister that part is unclear, but I was expecting her to be upset at your father for being violent in the same house as her kids, gross.
&#x200B;
Your dad's apology sucked if he doesn't do more to make it better. Your boyfriend is honestly trash, you should never be with someone who calls you stupid- ever. It's just statistics that verbally abusive men escalate into physically abusive- like your father was. If your boyfriend dismissed you being hit by him that's another huge red flag and shows he might approve of men disciplining women with violence. Two huge red flags should be enough to get the fuck out of there.
theswordofdoubt: Her sleeping in was not a problem. Those "responsibilities" were not ones she took on of her own free will, but pushed on her by people exploiting her. She's being abused and threatened. That's the real problem here.
yajtraus: While the rest of what you say is true, we don’t know why she looks after the kids. If she offered to, then the responsibility isn’t forced on her.
AiR_RoBBiE: I think a 17-year-old looking after 2 smaller humans for 13 hours a day is ridiculous.
yajtraus: I agree, but we can’t just assume it was “pushed on her” or that she’s being “exploited”.
AiR_RoBBiE: maybe not "pushed on her". but anyway you cut it making a 17 year old care for 2 children for 51.25 hours a week while her "sister looks for paid child care" that is literal exploitation. Especially when her sister knows she's works "6-10:30 on week nights (including Friday) then two 8 hour shifts on the weekend".
yajtraus: You’re missing the point. We don’t know these things from the original post, so we shouldn’t assume them. Most of her family come across as pricks but that doesn’t mean they’re forcing her to work or exploiting her.
AiR_RoBBiE: No, I see the point just fine. I remember being a senior in high school and working 2 part-time jobs while going to class and it was actually hell because you don't have any "you" time anymore. All you know is work and sleep. Not even being a legal adult and working that much is literal hell (let's be honest it's hell for adults as well). Even if they aren't forcing the work on her, asking your teenage sister to look after kids over 50 hours a week, paid or not, is exploitation. Whether it was forced on her or not, the fact that she's doing it at all is exploitation.
yajtraus: Ah, I see. You’re judging her situation based on your own experience rather than what she actually said. Makes sense.
AiR_RoBBiE: Bruh I’m judging her situation based on working 50 hours a week as a 17 year old.
xXTheLastCrowXx: Did OP verify if she agreed to the responsibility and being paid for said responsibility?
Edit: Downvotes for asking a question is pretty trash. Be better redditors.
AiR_RoBBiE: She didn’t verify if she’s getting paid but there is an implication she is not getting paid as she took the job short term to help her sister while she finds a babysitter. But her sister hasn’t looked and she has a week until she starts going back to school and the kids are SOL

xXTheLastCrowXx: Oh my... That's awful. Im surprised her parents are ok with this. I can understand having to watch a sibling for a hour or so a day but not someone elses kids unpaid for hours.

CronkinOn: I'm in my 40s so this might be a stupid question
But isn't tinder for something besides romantic gestures?
L-ill_Thug1: Yeah, but I just downloaded it for small entertainment. Like a “ehh why not” moment. I didn’t expect it either to find someone who I hit it off with really well and started to like. We didn’t really used tinder either, we matched but all of our interactions were on other platforms.
CronkinOn: Sucks man.
I've been there too... Emotionally invested way too much in a chick I met online who was moving to my city, only to realize later I was one of several of her options.
Kinda crazy how attached you can get, and how quickly.
L-ill_Thug1: True true, im feeling way better now that I have gotten this off my chest a bit. But you are right, its just insane how invested you can get in someone. Others can say that they could tell it wouldn’t have been worth it, but honestly if you were in my shoes you wouldn’t really know any better
CronkinOn: Some lessons need to be learned the hard way, unfortunately. I don't blame myself for how invested (and honestly desperate/obsessive) I got with my encounter, but I *did* learn from it.
You don't really get to know people over text/phone... You need to read their body language in person to know who they are and what they're about. it's easier to present as someone you're not over the phone.
I never again got (romantically) attached to someone I haven't met in person.

[removed]
federalbeerguy: 1. 4 months is not an anniversary.
2. How old are you both? Because her reaction sounds like she's in middle school.
3. She's testing you. Honestly, if you put up with this behavior, she knows that she can manipulate you. Call her bluff. Say "bye". This has hallmarks of insecurity that is rooted somewhere. Not your problem, especially at 4 months in.
4. I promise you the sex isn't worth the trouble lol.
Also, this is not a tifu
CiriNova: 1. I want to have anniversary every month, just an excuse to celebrate and feel a bit more special.
2. She's 21 and I'm 27.
3. I just said and explain everything I think and turn off the phone until she apologized. You share my thoughts, if I put up with this behavior, things would be like this for every single problem from now on.
Rip_Dirtbag: 21 and 27 and your response to this is to post on Reddit and not laugh at her while you pack up her shit and leave it on the doorstep? She’s 21 and upset about when you liked an Instagram post and your 27 year old ass is actually entertaining her perspective enough to post about it here?
Duuuuuuuude
Tanagrabelle: He likes all of her friends' posts, so I wonder if she thinks he's using her to get to her friend.
Rip_Dirtbag: That’s a gross way to think. There’s enough in the world to worry about…liking posts in Instagram seems like a real misplacement of priorities.
Tanagrabelle: That is the way, unfortunately, that some people think. Isn't one of the instructions pick-up artists give to use the friend of the girl they're after?
Rip_Dirtbag: Does that sound like what you read in the post, though?
Tanagrabelle: That sounds like what his girlfriend thinks is going on.
Rip_Dirtbag: I think that’s on her, then.
Tanagrabelle: I think he's going to have this problem with other women.
Rip_Dirtbag: So what’s your solution? Men shouldn’t like posts online by women if they’re in a relationship?

1661417609 | 1661439223 | t3_wx8z6c | t5_2to41 | 18 | HighschoolUpset: TIFU by hitting on the girl that is organizing my high-school reunion
So basically, it's almost time for my my graduating class to have their high-school reunion. I don't really want to go for several reasons. The biggest one being that I've been rejected by a lot of girls that I went to high-school with and I've been picked on and bullied by some of the guys I went to high-school with and I don't want to really interact with those people again.
There is a girl, we will say her name is Stacy. I really liked Stacy in high-school and from then until after college, I used to send her a lot of DMs over the years. She eventually unfriended me on all social media this year. It turns out that she's the direction and planner for our high-school reunion, which is also this year. There is a chance that I may not be invited or welcomed. There is also a big chance that I'll see her and I don't know how she might react.
I don't want to cause any drama or anything like that. I just don't think this high-school reunion is for me. I don't see it being a lot of fun. I mostly just see myself sitting in a corner and maybe interacting with a few people that I already see on a daily basis. I also haven't accomplished much of anything with my life so there's nothing really to talk about. I'm wondering if I should try to contact Stacy though and try to apologize or something to her. If I go, maybe that would make things less awkward.
TL;DR I send DMs to the girl that is organizing my high-school reunion
OG_Leemur: Don't go then.
Just make sure Stacy's mom has got it going on.
OkVolume1: She's all I want.

1661420981 | 1661459421 | t3_wx9upy | t5_2to41 | 78 | Cold_November_Rain-: TIFU by leaving my house and office keys on the car roof and driving away.
I'm really good at my work, but I've never been especially good at multitasking and in adition to that - covid pretty much fucked up my concentration and attention span. I was talking on the phone as I left my house this morning, then remembered I forgot something, wanted to grab it and left my keys on the roof until I put other things in the car. But then again remembered I don't need it today and it's fine I can go. As I was talking on the phone the whole time, I forgot about the keys on the roof and just drove away. So I'II call someone to change my lock - that's 'fine' (it will still cost me 100-200€, but it can be done in a day) but I have no idea how to tell the boss I lost company keys because it's not my first time, and one of these keys cannot be copied and has to be ordered. Last time he was so angry he fined me with 300€.
TL;DR Left my keys on the car roof, drove away and now how to face the consequences.
CMDRissue: I'd look into whether that 'fine' was legal where you're from. Just because you're in trouble doesn't mean you should pay a company's expenses.
DylantotheJ: why wouldn't it be legal? OP lost the company keys, therefore, having to replace them. Why should the company bare the expenses? It's not like the boss lost the keys and is charging OP.
Also, OP going forward any keys you have off the company treat them like anything can happen at any time and it's your duty to keep them safe. That's how I treated my keys when I had the key to my workplace. I had a specific keyring for both stores I worked at and on the days I had them on me I put them in my pocket right away. I always had a designated pocket for my keys. phone and wallet. I do a periodic "tap" check to make sure I have everything on me. I hope the boss is lenient since this is your second time. But OP this time if you get a third chance please take this seriously and be careful with your work keys there might not be a next time.
CMDRissue: It's not legal in Aus. You can face disciplinary action for mistakes but you can't be made to pay for them. I checked after I accidentally put a stock order through as a rush order, costing a few hundred more than it should...
DylantotheJ: Yeah but something as losing keys could result in changing locks which will cost the company. Something they wouldn't have had to do if the employee didn't loose the keys.

1661425556 | 1661432502 | t3_wxb8sd | t5_2to41 | 626 | Unseen_Shadow501st: TIFU by telling a store clerk "love you"
It was a normal (2022 standard) day in the uk, the sun was blistering hot, the pavement was basically melting my shoes. I (m19) and my gf (f18) were out pokémon card counting as one does in stores, we walk into a few stores, I awkwardly ask id they have cards (social anxiety) with one of my few braincells after scavenging for a while. We finally find a nice WHSmiths and find what we are looking for, a juicy eevee based promo pack with 3 extra cards. I pay, as any good employed man should either his unemployed gf, turn to leave and alas I say "love you, thank" instead of "lovely, thank you" and the poor girl had to witness my going "Fuck, sorry!" while my gf laughs at me and I hurry to leave as the situation had become too dire for my mortal soul.😭😭
TL;DR in the pressure of Pokemon cards with my gf I ended up professing my profound love for the store clerk before scurrying out of the shop.
Edit: Disclaimer, spelling/grammar, I'm dyslexic and was dropped as a child.
Global_Monk_5778: Don’t worry we’ve all done stuff like this! Calling a teacher mum or dad, putting kisses at the end of an email or text to an important person or a tradesman, etc etc! It happens!
The important thing is, you got your cards, your girlfriend saw the funny side and not all of your brain cells have melted in the heat (not yet anyway!)
As somebody with social anxiety though I am cringing with you though! Have a good laugh about it if you can and hope you got some decent cards!
ramyeomi: this one time in an online class i accidentally added a kiss emoji behind a question i wanted to ask to the lecturer 🫠 i was on iPad and tapped open the emoji keyboard by accident. and before i noticed i’ve tapped the “send” button.
Global_Monk_5778: My husband is a teacher and used to be a lecturer - it happens *so often* and he gets loads of messages straight after going *nooooo* I didn’t mean to send that!!!! 🤣
ramyeomi: oh i’m glad to know it’s more common than i thought 😂

1661424559 | 1661435056 | t3_wxaxa4 | t5_2to41 | 30 | Secret_agent_010: TIFU by not taking a Photo with my Teacher
Our French teacher was so kind to us and helped us a lot to pass in the exams for the past 2 years. She was so friendly to us. She speaks about her life and gives us advice for our future. Once I was the only student in the class as all the other students were busy with something else . We talked for more than an hour about her past life and my future plans and She was one of the first ones who supported my future startup plan. She was so nice and kind to me.
Today it was one of my last french classes as this is the last semester I will be having french in my university. There was only 4 students in my class including me. Even today as the students were less, she talked to us about her life and gave us many advices for our future. She didn’t stop talking even after the time period. At the end all of my classmates(not the ones I talk with) told her that they wanted to take a picture with her. I am a camera shy person and I don’t take photos that much. While my classmates were going to take the photo I took my bag and told my teacher “bye ma’am”. When I said bye She said “come take a picture” for which I straightly said “I don’t take photos ma’am” and I left the classroom.
After that I started to feel bad for that. I should have said that more politely or I should have explained that I am camera shy.
TL;DR : Today it was one of my last French classes. My French teacher was a nice and friendly teacher. At the end of today’s class she told me to take a picture with her for which I said “I don’t take photos” and left the classroom. Now I’am feeling bad for that. I did that because I’am a camera shy person.
Patrickme: You know where to find her.
Go back and say you regret your choice not to take a picture.
I mean if there is any place to learn from, and correct, mistakes it would be school, Right?
i_say_uhhh: Maybe even exchange contact info that way you guys can keep in touch and if you ever need some advice she can help

xequez: I guess the "WE WERE ON A BREAK" line didnt work?
Edit: I just realise you are likely too young to have seen Friends 20 years ago
Update: so glad so many people still love friends. My housemate and I would binge watch it on Saturday mornings hungover in our 20s. I was old enough to watch it on its first run in the 90s.
cloudyasshit: Netflix had a rerun recently. Great bingeing
staffnasty25: Alternatively you could not watch Friends and do literally anything else.
charden_sama: I'm p neutral on friends but man nobody is as loud about that show as someone who hates it lmao
Baldazar666: I disagree. The people that praise how great it is are louder.
charden_sama: Idk man even the people that I know love friends barely ever bring it up but that could just be my experience
Baldazar666: Well, yeah. Same here. The friends I have that like it also hardly ever mention it. But equally quiet about it are my friends that dislike it. I'm talking about people in general. A larger sample size you can take is social medias like reddit. You don't see people that dislike it make posts on reddit about how shitty it is or share facebook posts about how shitty it is. It's always the people that can't get enough of it that are the ones that are the loudest. Case in point - The comment that started this chain was from a person that likes it.
hellothere42069: Ah yes the classic “users of Reddit are a fair and normal, well adjusted representation of the population at whole” point of view.
Baldazar666: They don't need to be but we are talking about internet culture and how people behave on the internet. And reddit users are actually quite a bit better than your average user on other social medias.

1661436769 | 1661465467 | t3_wxfcbf | t5_2to41 | 527 | FrozenNoob_: TIFU by breaking down while messaging my friend
I want to preface this by saying this friend was the first person to be nice to me in years and I really wanted to keep that. We love eachother as friends do and shes quite important to me. It was a normal day like any other, up early for school, on the school bus, except I had a particular lingering loneliness. I carried this through the day and still felt it while with my best three friends. I spent my day mostly isolated from them and it upset me. I got home and sorta broke down, in my bed texting my buddy when I have the amazing sense to write: “I don’t feel like i belong in this friend group because I feel like I’m ruining your guys’ fun all the time and I feel lonely.” She responded “Well sorry we cant be robots all for your pain and attention!”
I was upset by this, and quite aggressively fired a series of messages back, but mostly along the line of “I didn’t ask for all of your attention just a little bit of it, I’m sorry I’m sad and boring all the time but I try.”
She hasn’t spoken to me for a few hours since, only leaving me on read and ignoring calls, and I worry my first good friend I ever had mightn’t be my friend anymore.
After this encounter I spent a few hours crying, then sleeping, then crying again, in between trying to apologise for what I said.
Tl;dr: Ruined my friendship because I was sad
Apologise for any spelling errors / punctuation errors, am typing on my phone.
FourLeafPlover: Hot take: get therapy, work on your mental health, and stop expecting others to take your suffering for you. Good on your friend for setting boundaries for herself (though ghosting isn't the best way to do that...)
Purple_Category3037: While it's definitely a good idea for OP to seek out therapy, that can sometimes be easier said than done, especially if they are in the U.S.
Getting therapy here can mean spending hours calling office after office trying to find a provider that will take your insurance. If you don't have insurance, you can pretty much forget about it. If you do manage to find someone in network, the wait for an intake appointment can be months or even over a year in some cases. Then, if you don't click with your therapist (which is really important if you want to get anything out of it), you have to start the process all over again.
Needless to say, this is a big lift for someone struggling with mental illness. It also sounds like OP might be a minor, which means they are probably at the mercy of how receptive their parents are to getting them into therapy.
All this to say, please don't blame people with mental illness for where they are in their mental health journey. It is a long, difficult process that is never really over.
TheLegendJohnSnow: I dont think anyone is blaming the friend. But the friend us under no obligation to be part of this journey
Purple_Category3037: Oh I'm not saying the friend is obligated to support OP. I just think this particular comment came of as rude and judgemental, especially considering OP never actually said they expected their friend to be responsible for their mental health.
Pandalite: Unfortunately the way OP blew up at friend suggested that that was in OP's mind subconsciously. "I didn’t ask for all of your attention just a little bit of it" - why is it on the friend to give OP attention and then get blown up at when she doesn't? She's a friend not a therapist and she doesn't owe OP her attention.
Purple_Category3037: I think that was more a reaction to the way the friend handled the situation than the fact that the friend needed boundaries. Boundaries are healthy, but lashing out at a friend for trying to open up to you about their depression isn't how you set a boundary.

[deleted]
gEiStToG: 20mg is fine. You can safely take up to 60mg a day before any health hazards. Well, the doctors can prescribe up to 2 30mg a day (1 in the morning and 1 in evening). You shouldn’t have anxiety like that though on adderall though even if you took an extra 10mg.
alyas1998: Thank you for the explanation. Is it simply that I’m not used to the dose then?
gEiStToG: Probably. If the adderall helps, you’ll eventually be upping your dose because your body will adapt to it and build up tolerance. Just take your meds as you’re supposed to and when, at the right dose, drink water and enjoy the focus and clarity or you’ll over think it and just start down that adhd over thinking spiral which caused your anxiety about this in the first place ;)

[removed]
Icy_Engine_7648: Get lasik, go on another date with her and give us an update!
BenjaminBarker24601: Oh I did get LASIK. And she did break my heart, but I've moved on. I still reach out to her every now and then, she's going through a rough patch.
pnwWaiter: Man, best of luck with that. Feel like most times I've missed my chance, there's not a second with them.
BenjaminBarker24601: Oh no I don't want a second chance. I knew she wasn't a good long term partner for me, it's why I didn't pursue her until things escalated that night.
I did get close to her though. She has cut out a lot of people in her life because she's just not happy where she is in her life right now and is in a tough situation. Our mutual friends haven't heard from her in months or years because she is avoiding people. Depression sucks.
So I reach out to her every now and then just to let her know there are people that care about her.
pnwWaiter: Man, why do you have to be so relatable?
Appreciate you doing that, and checking in. You're a good lad.
BenjaminBarker24601: It's a weakness of mine, and it can catch people off guard. I've learned over the years that I can't be everyone's friend. Either because they don't deserve it, or because they do not want it. A lot of women, for example, may think I am flirting with them or only reaching out for hookups or something. Sometimes in my attorney/professional world too, I've learned people "collect" friends as networking opportunities, and that's fine too. But sometimes my lawyer buddies are shocked when I reach out to see how they are doing and I'm not asking for a job or client referral or something.

1661454255 | 1661471123 | t3_wxmjrv | t5_2to41 | 8,670 | dingdongiamstupid: TIFU by flashing my vagina to my neighbor.
So it's been unbearably hot in our country for the last 3 weeks. And today it rained for the first time in a month. Its soo cool outside. We opened our windows to let in some air, but it didn't work so my boyfriend thought of opening our apartment door and opening the shared balcony so we could make the air move through the apartment.
Well it worked. But our bedroom window is by the bed, and to get to it you have to climb the bed. And when the cross winds hit, the door to the room or the window closes, so I had the job of laying on the bed with my arm stretched out above my head to hold the window, and my foot stretched out to the side holding the door.
The door of the bedroom is right in front of the apartment door and the apartment door is right in front of the elevator. Also because it's so unbearably hot, I'm wearing a big t-shirt with no underwear because I'm about to go to bed. You see where im going?
So I'm laying there spread eagle, holding the damn door and the window. And I hear the elevator ding. And then we make eye contact. I let go of the door. But I'm pretty sure the damage is done. Im pretty sure she saw my vag, and it's funny, but also I hope that our timetables when we go to and from work don't match, because that's just an awkward elevator ride waiting to happen.
TLDR: My neighbor saw my vagina, because I had to keep the door open so the cross winds wouldn't close it whilst laying down and had underwear on.
AllanfromWales1: If you see her again, make eye contact and say "Your turn"..
CrankyOldDude: Lol - very underrated comment. Well done. :)
ShittyBollox: It’s not underrated, it’s literally the top comment.

TIFU at the airport
So I at the age of 29 have moved back in with my parents to save a bit of cash. I'm in a long distance relationship with someone from abroad, so occasionally my girlfriend comes to visit for a while.
Not having the most open relationship with my parents on sex related matters I'm relatively careful at disposing of used condoms so they're not seen in the general rubbish. I usually do this by putting them in a plastic bag and disposing of said bag in a public bin.
My girlfriend visited 2 weeks ago...Fast forward two weeks I'm due to go to Germany to visit her this time. It comes to packing and I notice two of the previously mentioned items in a separate plastic bag in the rucksack I'm planning to take as my luggage. I, disgusted at having forgotten about them, pack them in my bag planning to dispose of them on the way to the airport. My train to the airport is delayed so I'm quite stressed about making my flight. I forget about my cargo...
I'm going through security and my gets pulled funneled off the conveyor to be searched. I instantly realise what's probably caused this and all I can think is 'Fuck, fuck, fuck!'. It's my turn to have the security personnel search my bag for the offending item. It obviously gets pulled out right in front of me. I've never been so mortified in my life.
TL;DR I accidently left two used condoms in my hand luggage whilst going through security. My bag got searched.
Nodontlookatmee: Being in a relationship while living with your parents is selfish behavior.
laplongejr: What? My now-wife lived *with* my parents for 1 year, and I was in a relationship with her 1 year before that.

1661459030 | 1661532496 | t3_wxohhw | t5_2to41 | 4,417 | imdumbthrowaw: TIFU by shoving tic tacs down my dick
Well not today but yesterday I (18M) shoved 2 tic tacs down my peehole.Please don't ask I guess I'm just dumb as hell.The first one came out just fine.I guess the second one was long enough in there and managed to dissolve in a way to have 2 edges and able to cut the inside somewhere at the very end when it came out.It came out a bit red and like 2 or 3 drops of blood came out, as well as after the first time i peed.
It still hurts when i pee and I don't know really if it will heal by itself, I'm just praying cause i really would rather live with this forever than tell someone. Can anyone tell me if it will? Google says either rarely it heals at all or it takes 3-6 weeks but according to google i also had lung cancer when i coughed so yknow... I think we all know googling medical things isn't really a great idea in the majority of cases.It seems like its a very small cut.
TL;DR: a tic tac cut me inside my pp and now I'm fucked ig.
Edit: i will just add this cause I mightve let a lot open to interpretation.
I was just curious of the sensation of sounding
Yes it was mint, funnily enough it wasnt a painful minty sensation.
It only hurts when i pee
It wasnt deep there at all and i could barely feel it fore some reason
ITS A TIC TAC, i wouldnt have guessed it would dissolve so quickly, let alone make 2 edges, let alone be able to cut, its a tictac bruh..
Aldren: Some people should not watch The Boys
Wanderluustx420: Did I miss something!!? I do not recall this scene.
SylancerPrime: Season 3, episode 1. Just start watching there, and you'll know when it's relevant to this.
And if you want context, go ahead and start from the beginning, great show if you can stomach it.
hellocaptin: Can someone give me a YouTube link or something?...I wanna feel included...
itirnitii: theres a scene where two guys are at a house party. one is a super hero that can shrink. he goes in the other guys penis but since he is on cocaine he sneezes and goes back to full size while in his dick.
Brigbird: Damn instead of giving him a link you ruin the scene
jam3s2001: I'm not really sure many sites would carry that scene... Pornhub, maybe?
Brigbird: Love sausages pp from season 2 is on YouTube though. I'm not sure tbh why
Sinnester888: Cause it’s like comically big, almost like an arm.
Brigbird: I mean the penis in the other scene is technically even bigger
Sinnester888: Yeah but it’s so big that I feel it would be classified more like a limb than a sexual organ
Brigbird: I mean whether it's a limb or sexual organ it's still a penis

1661461949 | 1661462352 | t3_wxpocf | t5_2to41 | 17 | Jdabuell9: TIFU by losing $70 on a online scam
Back story a little bit but I’m really into collecting Pokémon cards and I’ve been searching on the internet for some good deals.
On face book there’s a community where you can post offers of cards online and get messages for the cards. I see a guy post online for some cards and I’m one of the first people to comment on the post. I should let you know that this is my second time buying online for Pokémon cards that would need to be shipped to me and the first time was on tcgplayer.
So I see the cards I like which in total, if real would add up to $2,000 dollars and I offer him $42 dollars which was a suggestion by my dad. The guy counters with $50 and I agree. This should have been red flag number one but I was so excited that my greed blinded me.
So I give him my Fathers work address to be safe and he tells me it’s $8 shipping which is what I expected so I send him $58 dollars as a sign of good will. I suggested to my dad that I could do a some now and some after I get the cards. He disagrees so I send the guy the money. He agrees and says he’s sending the cards out in a little bit because he has other things to ship. ( I now see how this was a deception to keep me in aware.)
He then offers me another card for $20 (it was a mewtwo) and he sends me a pic of it and it’s a more modern looking card. This is red flag number 1,2, and,3 because one the cards I asked for were all old and this one wasn’t, two it wasn’t even in the original picture and three worst of all the card isn’t even worth $20! It’s worth maybe $5 at most.
So he then tries to add another card for a $25 Japanese charizard but I decline. At this point I was not a 100% sure he was scamming me so I my excitement got in the way so I ignored my suspicions.
Next I make sure to say to him to add the right cards since I requested a Gyarados card but in the pics on facebook there were two. So he says he messed up and has to repackage the stuff and that since it was a waste he needs to repackage them for $20. This should have been red flag number 4 and final one but again I was two excite. I did counter with $10 instead of $20 which he agreed to.( I realized he was squeezing money out of me but I hoped it was him Just trying to make a few more bucks and not scam me)
After this our messages kept getting farther and fewer between and at some point I asked for the tracking number and even after “sending” the package he couldn’t send it to me. At this point I know the chances are I’m not getting my cards. After pestering him for awhile he says he needs another $10 for shipping. (He probably sensed I was desperate and still thinking the cards were coming). I told him I need to see the receipt showing the extra $10.
He said he’ll send it after he sees the next $10. Also says shipping was hella expensive and that their in Dayton Ohio.
After this kinda go off at him saying,
“Dude we agreed on $58 and out of good will I trusted you and gave you ten more. I’m sorry unless I see a receipt proving it’s $10 more im not sending it.” (Copy and pasted form chat).
At this point I tell him I want to cancel which I was surprised he responded to telling me ok and he’ll refund the money and to just send the package back. I tell him ok in hopes of getting some of money back.
(By now I noticed the original post was gone awhile before this (few hours after paying him) ) but the final kickers is one the community where I found the original offer made a post about him being a scammer and 2 I found the photos he used in the ad for a different post on a different website(also fake).
Now I told him my parents are mad at me to trying and get something back but I doubt it.
Personally I’m almost kinda glad I got scammed. For one it taught me a valuable lesson about checking online offers more carefully ( the old saying if it’s to good to be true it probably is),and 2 it was my own money so no one really got hurt (except my pride).
I’m also glad I asked my dad for help and not my mom cause my mom would have shut me down immediately (granted she would have been right) but it was freeing to make my own choice and fail then to not make my own choice at all.
Frankly if another opportunity comes like this again I will want to try again with more caution.
TL;DR Ultimately not the worst thing to happen to me just kinda salty that I’m not getting my Pokémon cards.
amyaurora: One thing I want to share from r/Scams is to watch out for recovery scammers who will try to convince you they can get your money back.
Jdabuell9: Thank you
amyaurora: Welcome

1661461832 | 1661540538 | t3_wxpmka | t5_2to41 | 50 | DeerSignificant7948: TIFU by complimenting a new hire's hands
I (36m) am a mechanic at a local auto repair shop. A new hire (25m) has recently joined our team. He's a quick learner and seems like a nice kid. I was tasked with training him. I'm usually not a very chatty guy, but he seemed like he wanted us to get to know each other so I've been playing nice.
Today I was walking him through something and when we finished up, I told him he had really strong hands. It seemed like the tone of the conversation shifted after that, and new hire started talking about how he gives really good massages and that he could show me sometime if I wanted. I told him I didn't know about all that, so he redirected and asked me out to dinner. The conversation was moving pretty fast so before I know it, I'm locked in for Saturday night plans.
I told some of my friends this story, a few of which are younger and more internet slang savvy than me, and apparently complimenting someone's hands is basically a 'down to fuck' siren signal. So... looks like I, a straight guy, am going on a date on Saturday with a dude?
TL;DR: I complimented a new hire's hands, got offered a massage, and somehow got roped into a date with him on Saturday.
Moosebuckets: Bro as someone with a thing for men with big strong hands I’m amazed you didn’t know this lmao
DeerSignificant7948: I've been blissfully unaware of the hand kink thing up to this point and I honestly wish I still was. I keep thinking about the interaction like, shit. Maybe I should text him.
Moosebuckets: Lmao yeah, don’t do something you’re not comfortable with. It’s uncomfortable to get out of the situation but it’s far less uncomfortable than going through it if it’s not something you’re interested in.
DeerSignificant7948: Ah, well. My motivations to text him were less out of discomfort and more out of… he does have *really* nice hands. And maybe a massage wouldn’t be so bad. That was the thought process.
And I did decide to text him last night just to confirm dinner and we ended up facetiming for a while. He’s very much got a whole baby face thing going on which, on top of the big strong hands, is cute.
chameleonsEverywhere: I think it's fine to go to dinner, but you should make your intentions clear ASAP so you don't have to reject a forward move and leave your poor colleague feeling vulnerable and rejected. If you let him massage you, knowing full well you have no plans to go any further and he thinks he has a shot at a hookup or even a relationship, that's gonna make him feel real bad and make work awkward. If he still offers the massage after knowing you aren't into dudes, then hell yeah, new friend with (non-sexual) benefits.
DeerSignificant7948: Yeah, the last thing I want is to make the guy feel uneasy.
The more I talk to him, the more I’m like “I don’t really like dudes, but I think I like this particular one,” which is complicating things. So it looks like I’m going to have to get vulnerable over dinner and admit hey, never been with a guy before and you’re gonna have to show me the ropes if you’re down.

1661462107 | 1661514238 | t3_wxpqot | t5_2to41 | 6,885 | VegetableHour6712: TIFU When I Wrote A Love Letter To My Husband's Shaft
So for the last 16 years of our marriage, one of the ways I have shown love for my husband has been by randomly leaving notes declaring my love & admiration for him in his lunch bags. It's not an every day thing, but usually when inspiration hits sort of thing. Most of my notes have consisted of me telling him the ways I adore him, encouraging & praising him, doodles, jokes and the occasional safe for work spicy message.
Well I realized it's been a few months since I left him one & he's been graciously under a lot of stress at work lately, so what better way to bring a smile to his face than to write a love letter to his penis. We're jokesters at heart and it's no secret I love his 2nd brain, so I figure he'd get a laugh at it and be ready to go when he came home.
Now, I really got creative and not only wrote a poem describing the magnificence of the shape, size, texture & overall beauty of his cock in poem but below that I wrote the nastiest shit a wife could do with it. No vanilla sex here, folks. So...realizing how nasty this got, I had a gut feeling to hide the note under his sandwich just on mere chance someone at work would see it.
He always calls me on his lunch break and I'm so excited to hear his reaction to what I thought was my best piece of erotica yet. Happiness soon turns to horror when I find out that my husband got called to problem solve a project at work as soon as he sat down to eat, so he grabbed his sandwich and rushed out of his department without thoroughly looking at his lunch bag.
Appearantly the note fell while he quickly grabbed his sandwich without him seeing it. My husband works in an engineering department made up of 12 other men, one of which found the note. My husband returns to all of them standing around the memo board, laughing and making a commotion. My once private letter is now pinned on display for everyone to see. Not realizing my hubby had left, they had asked around for someone to claim the absolute filth I wrote and since no one did, they assumed a client, janitor, anyone else but someone in the department was connected to it. My husband goes to read it and realizes halfway through *omg my wife wrote this*.
So of course they immediately took it down, all had a good laugh and cheered my husband on for his sexual prowess. My husband found the whole thing hilarious and of course was flattered. But I see these people pretty regularly and will now forever be mortified that they know what filth I am capable of. Might as well share my embarrassment with the world at this point and laugh 🤷🏻♀️
TLDR - wrote a nasty letter for my husband to find in his lunch bag at work, his entire department saw it instead.
MisunderstoodBumble: Not that I think it overly matters to all women but, us men have fragile egos, and ladies - take note - complimenting your man’s dick, sexual prowess, or similar in front of your friends, etc is a huge compliment for us. It doesn’t have to be true but we secretly love it.
So good job OP.
Jiltedjohn: Errr nah. I hate compliments and my ego is far from fragile.
Seems to be a Reddit theme that men are secretly emotional butterflies , not all of us are and couldn’t think of anything worse than to be thought that way.
Intelligent_Quote_55: „Being loved and admired, so gay“
Dude your Ego seems so fragile i would not touch it with bare hands
Jiltedjohn: Lol. Not what I said, but thank you for not touching it with your bare hands.
Intelligent_Quote_55: Yeah but what you implied. Correct me if you feel like I got your comment wrong, but you basically say that „not all men“ need love or affection because they are not „emotional butterflies“ (whatever that means)
Humans are social creatures and love and affection are CRUCIAL for human development. For women AND MEN
Jiltedjohn: Nope I didn’t say that.
Instead of projecting your opinion look at what I said.
Intelligent_Quote_55: As I said, feel free to correct my impression and tell us what you DID mean because no matter how hard I try I cannot read your comment another way
Jiltedjohn: Well that’s on you I suppose. I said I hate receiving compliments.
My wife likes compliments and I enjoy giving her compliments but for me personally there are a myriad of other ways I can get affection that don’t involve compliments.
The emotional butterfly comment is a pointed reference to Reddit men that crave emotional validation , these posts often originate from askreddit and are really a cover for not getting rejected by women.
Intelligent_Quote_55: Well it’s absolutely fine if you don’t want to receive compliments or if you don’t need them. I don’t like receiving compliments neither, so I get you.
What makes your comment weird is that you degrade men that need emotional validation (just like most other human beings) and make this a sex and gender thing. Being emotional or not has nothing to to with your sex or gender. Needing affirmation and affection has nothing to do with sex or gender or being „an emotional butterfly“ (again wth)
Jiltedjohn: Again you are projecting, that’s not what I said.
You need to stop projecting.
Intelligent_Quote_55: Ok, but it sounds like you did. Or where did the emotional butterflies come from? Why do you have to generalize your opinion? Not everything is about gender.
Jiltedjohn: I didn’t mention gender. You are projecting again.
Reread.
Intelligent_Quote_55: Dude just read your first comment. I just told you what it implies.
Jiltedjohn: Indeed. You projected a lot of bs, I made it very clear that I was referring to myself and not generalizing across all.
Intelligent_Quote_55: Well I’m not the one getting angry about this
Jiltedjohn: Good, no value in getting upset over a Reddit comment.
I refuted a comment that generalized “us men”, while your responses have been an interesting study in projection it would perplex me if you got angry over it.

Storms_and_Rainbows: If he dumps you you already understand why. He cannot trust you and let his guard down. You’re worried about STD’s maintain the use of condoms. A mature couple would have gone and got tested together and shared the results with one another. You have those open conversations BEFORE sex. Not judging here but you effed up royally.
VoidCoelacanth: Bruh. If you expect 16 and 18 to be "a mature couple"...

1661468790 | 1661527779 | t3_wxsg9f | t5_2to41 | 111 | Aardee22: TIFU by setting up a new phone for my moms partner
So, my mom and her partner just got new phones, and they were coming over for dinner at me and my sisters shared apartment, so I could help them. They were having trouble setting them up and getting their data transffered from their old phone, usual tech-savy-son-helping stuff.
After getting his new phone up and ready, I wanted to check if it had gotten his pictures transffered, so I just opened his gallery, and to my big surprise, only 1 picture showed up, and it was a close-up picture of someones vagina.. Two fingers spreading the labia, whole sha-bang.. He was sitting next to me, looking at the phone with me the whole time. As soon as I saw this picture and my brain registered what it was, I just closed the app immediately, maybe only saw it for 2 seconds, and pretended like nothing had happened. I'm 99% certain that he didn't register what I had just seen, since he didn't say or do anything. (Maybe because of his age or bad vision, he's 65 and my mom is 56)
My first thought was; "Oh god, did I just see my moms vagina on his phone?" Then I thought; "Maybe it was just porn from the internet..? But why save it on your phone like that?"
The evening continued normally while I acted like nothing had happened and things were.. great..!
After they went home, I told my sister what I had seen. (for context, I'm m25 and she's 28. We've been living together for almost a year now, and it's been great for the both of us since we've always been very close to eachother and very good friends, who can talk about anything) She proposed the idea for me, that what if it was someone elses vagina I saw? What if he was cheating?
He's got an old female friend who goes all the way back from school, who he has slept with once, as far as what he's told our mom. My mom has asked him not to have contact with her, since she gets so jealous about it, and she absolutely despises her, because him and his friend has slept together and she's been rude to my mom. (I don't remember the full story here, so pls bare with me)
Now, my sister told me, that my mom had told her, that apparently she hid his phone from him on his birthday, since his old friend always texts him a happy birthday message, and she just physically couldn't bare the thought of them texting again, even though they've agreed to only be allowed to have contact on his birthday and for christmas. When she had gone to bed, she saw that he had taken his phone, and closed the door into the living room.
Him and my mom have been together for 4 years, and their old phone is 3 years old, so I can only conclude, that the picture must have been taken/saved on his phone within these 3 years.
I've come to the conclusion, that I have to tell my mom about it, because what if he ***is*** cheating? I'd rather want to find out, that I had just seen a picture of my moms vagina by accident, or porn, rather than he's cheating on her. If someone had known that my partner had nude pics of someone on their phone, and not told me about it, I would have been furious about it, especially if it was my family not telling me, so I at least have to let her know about it.
**TL;DR** I was helping my mothers partner setting up his new phone, opened his gallery to check if his old pictures got transffered from the old one, saw a close-up picture of a vagina with 2 fingers spreading the labia, I don't know if I have just seen my mothers vag, porn or someone elses, which could mean that he's cheating on her, maybe with an old female friend from way back who he has slept with once, and my mother is super jealous about.
Warfink: Just ask to see your moms vagina. If they look the same you’ve just avoided a very awkward situation my friend.
Fawstar: Make sure she spreads the labia open with two fingers as well.
The-Rel1c: No. Use your fingers otherwise it may not look right.

1661466527 | 1661472891 | t3_wxrjvo | t5_2to41 | 2 | _REj3Ct: TIFU trying to talk to a girl in college
this situation is not anything crazy I just find it funny and always look back on it but wish I could go back and redo my mistake. Always talk about this story to friends so now I'm sharing it on reddit lol.
This might be a real laugh for you guys but it is also kinda cringe lmao. So to start things off I am not good at talking to girls, I just get nervous and just make things awkward idk but in Fall 2019 I started my first college semester majoring in CST. First class starts and I see a girl walk into the class, while just sitting in class just thinking to myself "this girl is cute, I'm going to try to approach her" was going to plan to introduce myself and try to make friends. Sadly, because I was nervous to even do that it took me till the last day of the semester to actually talk to her, we had small talk previous times but just about the class we had together. We talked for a bit, said bye to each other then I realize my dumbass didn't even ask for her number or even her name I didn't even know her name lmao. Waited till my second semester started before the pandemic saw her on campus one day and went up to her and talked to her. Did finally got her name and surprisingly I actually got her number. After that, we decided to say bye to each other. Idk if this is normal but I'm pretty easy going guess once I get to know somebody and it goes well I get comfortable so I usually go for hugs to say hi or bye and decided to do that with this girl. As soon as I tried to go for a hug she puts her hand up to do a fistbump... It was a long pause and awkward as hell.. I fist-bumped her said bye and ran away to my next class. I purposely waited a couple of days to text her to ease down the awkwardness and we did conversate a little but she ended up ghosting me. Haven't seen her since after the pandemic hit. I start a new college semester tomorrow with in-person classes and the only problem is that I don't know how I would react if I actually see her on campus haven't been there in 3 years. I cringe every time remembering this situation but I still find it hilarious always looking back on it.
&#x200B;
TLDR: Part of me wants to try to avoid it if I actually see her and part of me does want to see her and apologize for what happened when we last talked. I do still want to try to get to know her.
TuckerCarlsonsOhface: Do not try to apologize for the awkward fist bump incident, you’re just going to make it more awkward. Say hi, let her know it’s nice to see her again, and leave it at that unless conversation naturally progresses further. Do not try to make something happen. Do not try to go in for a bro-hug.
_REj3Ct: Yup I’m not going to try anything learned from my mistakes lmao thx for the advice!

1661470710 | 1661471839 | t3_wxt6u4 | t5_2to41 | 3 | SierraMauvais: TIFU by sleeping with my boss.
Spoiler alert, wasn’t today, it was two days ago. I needed time to process, I think.
I’ve (F, 25) been into this woman (F,26) (we’ll call her Sasha), for a couple years. I only recently became friends with her because I applied and got hired at the place she works. (She’s the one who hired me.) We get along exceptionally well, and within the first week we had people asking if we’d been lifelong friends. It’s a very obvious connection.
Fast forward to my birthday, Sasha, myself, and our coworkers went rafting together. Her boyfriend (M,24) is also there, and happens to be our coworker too (we’ll call him Kevin). Everyone is drunk, high, or crossfaded in some way (except our designated). Her and I are in the back of the car that night and she went to kiss me. At this point, I turned away- I respect her way too much to let her make that choice while *that* drunk. I wanted her to be making choices like that with a clear head. We end up talking about it the day after and it’s decided that we’re just going to relax with the flirting, and focus on being friends. Not to mention I didn’t want Kevin to kill me. (They are in an open relationship when it comes to women, but I identify as gender non-conforming and have more masculine tendencies, so I was worried regardless.)
Fast forward three weeks. Her boyfriend is gone on vacation, she’s been very upset, and I’m honestly just a very lonely recluse. She ends up calling me to ask how I am, and I decided to be honest with her and tell her that I feel bad. Sasha comes to my house to get me and take me to hers. This was late at night, so I’m piecing together I’m staying the night there as we are driving to her place. Night goes fine until I’m helping her with her chores and she kisses me out of the blue. I’m in full surprise, because the action just went against this agreement her and I had. I admittedly did ask for another one when she started to apologize profusely, because I don’t think she should have felt bad for it. She kissed me again, then after a while of listening to music and drinking, it’s bedtime.
We climb into bed, and I’m not expecting anything (I’m still reeling and twitter-pated from the kissing), and she cuddles up into my arms. Then she starts getting handsy with me, and kissing and biting at me, and it all just kinda exploded into off and on sex. I’m just.. totally shell-shocked the whole time. I remember not saying much, other than for her to take it easy (I have chronic pain and haven’t been sexual in a long time, so too rough was pretty painful), and saying that nothing is going to change unless she wants it to. (I’m kind of quiet in bed regardless.)
Next morning hits and it’s starting to sink in when I wake up next to her. But it’s more of a “fuck, I wish I had done a better job of making her feel better”, not full blown panic. I wake her up, kiss on her a little bit, then she takes me home. We kiss before I get out of the car, say goodbye, whatever.
Now here is where I am worried. I’ve been a sometimes-unicorn, swinger, been in polyam situations. I’m no stranger to it, and have the emotional and mental fortitude for it. But I have no idea where she lies emotionally. I know Sasha is more emotional than me, and Kevin angers the hell out of me for how he either ignores or is ignorant about her needs. I’m worried Sasha is going to fire me. I know she’s going to tell Kevin. And I’m worried most of all that I hurt her or that she *thinks* she hurt me. I just want her to be okay. I hate to see her cry. But now I don’t even want to go to work to potentially be told not to ever come back. God, I’m a fucking mess.
TLDR; Fucked my boss, had a great time, she’s emotionally conflicted and might fire me. Wtf do I do.
Specter229: I don’t think you messed up at all. You’ll probably get an invite back into the swinger/unicorn dynamic again.
SierraMauvais: I feel like you’re half right- I think she’ll fire me but still want to be friends with me? I dunno. I have no one to talk to about this so I ran to Reddit 😂
Specter229: I doubt that you’ll be fired for it. It’s an open relationship, and she made all the moves. It’s not like you’re telling her to leave her S/O for you. Y’all had a good time. Y’all had a good time with the rules of their relationship known to all involved. All I see you getting in the end is an invite for a repeat performance with either an audience or another participant.

1661470260 | 1661742501 | t3_wxt0qb | t5_2to41 | 12 | ifeelbadforgf: TIFU by trying to be more of a dom for my girlfriend
This happened a few days ago, but I’m still trying to figure out exactly what I should do.
So as it turns out, I (M24) am very bad at being at all dom. I’m too gentle, too emotional and honestly I just feel bad if I’m being dom because I feel like I’m being harsh.
Anyway, my girlfriend (F25) has recently decided that she’s a little bit bored of being the more dominant one in our relationship. She doesn’t enjoy it all that much, and honestly neither do I. I wish I could be more dom, but it’s just not a part of me apparently. The other day she asked me to tell her my wildest fantasy of what we could do together. I didn’t really say anything too out there even though in all honesty, I was thinking of some crazy things. But I was still being too sub, and she called me out on this. In response, my brain left unfiltered by a mix of disappointment in myself and horny, I said something very out there that I think even I’m shocked I came up with. And here’s the fuck up. My girlfriend hasn’t had the best experience with past relationships, although I don’t know exactly what’s happened to her in the past. If I had, I never would have said what I said. Unfortunately, what I said brought up some very bad memories for my girlfriend and she became very saddened by it all. Over the past couple of days, she’s just been off and I feel absolutely horrible. We’ve talked about things and she’s said she’s okay, but there’s still clearly something wrong. I want to help, I want to show her that I’m here for her, but I just don’t know what to do. I’m scared for what this could do to her - if I’ve caused some sort of relapse I don’t think I’d ever be able to forgive myself.
Any advice at all would be greatly appreciated, because I really feel stuck here.
TL;DR - My girlfriend wanted to hear my fantasies, I said something which I never expected to come from me, brought up bad memories for her and for the past few days she’s been saddened by it all
Few_Television8130: Seems like a hard pass. She wants to be upset at you. What did you even say, I swear its probably something not that crazy.
Frankly_Frank_: How can you judge without knowing what he suggested. If he didn’t mention it in the post it must be pretty bad if it wasn’t there would have been no reason not to include it.
Few_Television8130: He is suggesting through his post that he is very vanilla. What may be extreme to him may not sound all that crazy to others. Because he doesn't mention it doesn't mean its pretty bad, it mean he thinks its pretty bad.

1661473705 | 1661485206 | t3_wxub2l | t5_2to41 | 4 | urnandontgag: tifu I don't know how you tell me
Today I went online like every other day, went on a game with my friend A and friend B and what happend is I was asked to 1v1 friend A
I did and handicapped myself as per request from B as a little reference I have known these people for about 5 years with A and 9 or 10 with B
I have been good friends with B for all of that and just equal respect with A
but anyway we went on a 20 round game (rainbow 6 seige for those wondering) and played I let him have 3 round wins before winning 9 in a row. Making him a bit mad Well because of this anger for some reason A has preceded to say that I made fun of someone's dead mother ,I didn't as I am a decent human and
was say for hours messaging me and insulting me so I did what anyone would do and blocked him,then he repeated the same thing on a different account so I blocked that and any other accounts he makes and then he gets his sister to start messaging me ,insults saying I need to sort my life out for the last 4 hours I have denied it every sep of the way .They won't listen and then has got a group of 6 people to all message me insults and every word under the sun in names and all
has affectively ruined the few friends that I have and I don't know what to do as there now trying to get my girlfriend who I was going to propose too to dump me i dont know what to do any advice
thank you for reading here's a cookie 🍪
TL;DR my small group of friends all turn on my for something I didn't do because of a lie
Glass-Ebb9867: If their opinion of you is that easily swayed by the words of one person then they weren't really friends to begin with imo
urnandontgag: It is just everything has happened in 1 day 1 person took his word then when someone ask there was 2 people saying it happend then 3 then 4 but I think I might block tg whole lot and focus on clearing it up with my gf
Glass-Ebb9867: That's a shitty situation. The ones who truly know you should know what's in your heart. I would ignore the haters and focus on the gf like you said. Best of luck

1661463873 | 1661478104 | t3_wxqgpy | t5_2to41 | 27 | dragoduval: TIFU by not throwing my old engagement ring
So me and my mom we used to be close, until my brother died and she got real depressed. This (and a bunch of other stuff) ended up causing a rip in our relationship that still hasn't healed.
While we where on low contact, i met my ex, the love of my life and the woman that i wanted to live my life with. We wanted to have kids, get married and one day own a house. I ended up catching her trying to make a baby with my best friend in our bed on the eve of Christmas when i left my job two hours earlier.
Two years later (aka around a hour ago) my mom was helping me look for something in some of my box that i had not emptied yet, when she found the engagement ring that i had forgotten about. She got angry that i had never told her about it, since she did not know that i ever had a girlfriend or anything, and blew up a fuse. I kinda reacted really badly and some stuff that should not have been said where said ln both side.
So yea i fucked up by not throwing that ring away.
TL:DR I did not throw the engagement ring of my cheating ex girlfriend and my mom found it, realizing that i had never told her about any of my past relationships.
public_weirdness: If it's an expensive ring, sell it.
Regarding telling your mom. I'm guessing there is a reason that you didn't tell her. What is that reason?
dragoduval: When my brother died, she went in full depression mode. Since i was suffering from depression back then too i did my best to help her and even let her sleep at my place when she quit her job and lost her apartment.
But she never fully recovered, so while i was helping her i had to go to school (i was studying IT), work two job and take care of her, while suffering from said depression and never being able to finish processing my dad dead (not even 10 months before my brother) and my brother dead.
Add to that that no matter what we said, she could never stop talking about him, or refuse to talk about anything bad.
Bad weather? O your brother loved bad weather. Late on rent ? Your brother was never late on rent. You just got admitted at the hospital for having a heart attack ? O well there's cloud outside, but it's still a good day. You are on a bridge about to jump? Well it's raining today, how about where you are ?
So yea i just stopped talking to her about pretty much everything, even when she finally managed to get her life together i kept my life to myself.
edit : O and yea, im more than likely going to sell that ring. Costed me 2k, so i might get lucky.
public_weirdness: I'm sorry you mom has had such a tough time processing her grief over your brother.
My grandmother lost her son, my uncle, and never was able to process it in a healthy way. It sucks.
dragoduval: She's better now, but it took her time. That's the problem, for us its a family person, but for them it's someone that literally came out of them after nine months.
public_weirdness: Parents aren't supposed to outlive their children. When they do, something traumatic has happened.

1661476696 | 1661488083 | t3_wxvfbz | t5_2to41 | 147 | wordly_idiot4404: TIFU - by thinking my ex was boring
TLDR: After a close call with a flying toaster I realized (a year too late) I broke the heart of the best woman I'd ever met because I am an selfish prick who was thinking with his little brain.
Background: My ex, call her A, and I came together 1.5 years ago. I was in a really dark mental spot, she showed up in the middle of the night to stay with me. We had been just friends. She wasn't my physical type, but she was so good to me by helping me get back on my feet I thought I could move past that. We were together 5 months. I had decided she was also boring, because we never fought. I thought she didn't care enough to fight. We break up and shortly after I meet my current gf, call her B.
B was exactly my physical type and passionate. A few weeks into dating we have a massive fight and I leave. I immediately called A cuz I was having dark thoughts again and she always knew what to say. She was cold at first, said she didn't want to make B uncomfortable. I lied a bit about leaving B and wanting A back (I know I know) so she'd talk me through it. True to her word, A helped me again. B and I work it out, but demands I block A. So I ghosted A. (A and B never met, A just saw my status on FB)
Cut to this morning: B is having a meltdown about the toaster being left on the counter and hurls it in my general direction. I left for work, but went on a drive instead. The realization hit me that A wasn't boring, she was stable, easy going. B wasn't passionate, but scarily unstable. Those dark thoughts are back and I want to talk to A so bad, hug her, hear her voice, I just miss her. Even if I had her number I'm scared she blocked me, or worse answers.
shesavillain: Leave A alone.
MaccGawd: Bravo. Dude's a fuckin' leech.

1661481752 | 1661524064 | t3_wxx8og | t5_2to41 | 519 | navier_stroke: TIFU by dropping Compound W Plantar’s Wart Remover on my genitals
I have a plantar’s wart on my foot and I have been trying to treat it with Compound W Maximum Strength (30% salicylic acid).
So, I’m sitting in bed (I sleep in the nude), and start putting this potent stuff on my foot. I stick my leg up to show my girlfriend next to me: “This stuff is crazy; it’s gonna turn white in like 10 seconds, then its going to start bubbling and get really sticky and bond to the skin, then it’ll puff up a bit and turn super white”.
When I go to bring my leg back under me, I drop the entire open bottle of compound w right onto my testicules, inner thigh and some on my penis. I instantly jump up off the bed and sprint straight to the shower - I’m screaming “fuck, fuck , fuck, fuck” cause I know this is going to hurt like death, and who the hell knows what will happen down there; after all, this stuff is made to acid-burn warts and remove outer layers of skin. I proceed to turn the shower on as quickly as possible, my girlfriend following me running. I am not exaggerating when I say I am in the most excruciating pain of my life - screaming, breathing erratically and can barely speak. Im scrubbing frantically and water is not doing the trick - it’s making the chemical sort of sticky and clumpy. It is not coming off and I am freaking out about putting anything other than water with fear that it will make things worse (i could hear years of people saying dont mix unknown chemicals together; you never know what it will do). All my focus is on the balls - this is where I dropped most of the chemical, and the pain is indescribable. Genuinely feels like my two balls, without scrotum, are being held in a roaring bonfire. But I have to do something because im in excruciating pain, sweating like mad, can’t nt control my breathing and on the verge passing out. My hero (girlfriend) run’s over some dish soap and I proceed to lather and scrub like it was the first and last shower of my life. At this point im sitting ass-naked on the floor of my shower, with my glasses on, and about half a bottle of dish soap on my junk, with the shower stream basically waterboarding me.
Thankfully, this seemed to help, and i am now (30 minutes later), laying in bed with some aloe vera on my red sack typing out this story. Hopefully I dont wake up with lizard balls or something.
Update: Feels alright this morning! Nothing crazy going on down south.
TL:DR I dropped some Compound W Maximum Strength plantar’s wart remover on my balls, thigh and penis. Chaos, pain and shame followed closely.
LaPyramideBastille: Vinegar to neutralize the burn for the next time around.
xrangerx777x: Vinegar is acidic though
hawkxp71: Yes it is. That's why the dish soap worked, as soaps are basic.
Also, it's likely the acid had some adhesive which the soap help break down
xrangerx777x: Baking soda would have worked as well, maybe not as well, but still
ProcrastinationSite: Yes, but it would be an exothermic reaction, so you wouldn't want to do that to your skin since it's already feeling like it's burning 😂
xrangerx777x: Good point, chemistry was never my strong suit. It didn’t help that it was first hour and I was chronically sleep deprived in high school lol

1d10: Hi, I'm insane. Therefore I can tell you with honesty that I know how you are fealing.
And I am truly sorry you have to go through this, I would suggest you find a therapist you trust and start an open dialog with them to get you the tools that make these rough parts of life more bearable.
If you can't do that there is a wealth of information online, it's just harder to do by yourself.
Dr Tracey Marks on YouTube has a lot of information to help people deal with a wide range if issues.
Please stay safe.

1661487908 | 1661827313 | t3_wxzdu2 | t5_2to41 | 56 | McGundam1215: TIFU by streaking in my backyard
So me and my wife just bought our house and every night I try to put our dog to go pee so she doesn’t do it in the middle of the night in the hallway. Our dog is close to 12 years old so her bladder isn’t what it once was.
So this happened call it 30 minutes ago, I get out of the shower and my wife is asleep in bed and the dog is too. So I get the dog outside and turn on our motion sensor spotlight. Normally she goes right to the grass well this time she decides to walk down the driveway. So I step outside as nude as a newborn, setting off the light, also I am no small person in either aspect. I am now standing buck naked on my porch telling my dog to go to grass in this bright light, luckily I don’t think any neighbors were up let alone looking out their windows. Light goes off so I decide to make a run for it back to shut off the light to give my dog more time. Light goes back on, I’m in the door, turn off the light and go to go back out and the dog is there waiting to come in.
TLDR put my dog out after a shower, walked outside stark naked while talking to my dog and setting off motion spotlights.
PlsRfNZ: Are you in one of those states where this counts as going on some stupid record? I'd be careful if you are
Otherwise no real F-Up here
Rov422: Pretty sure in every state that is indecent exposure 🤔
PlsRfNZ: Internet seems to think that [Florida ](https://www.floridatoday.com/story/opinion/2018/09/21/naked-your-backyard-florida-law-allows/1378937002/) is okay with it.
Not sure where and what actually constitutes the need to be put on a list for sexual predators.
Rov422: Lol Florida doesn't count as a real place anymore 😆 but I know for a fact if a minor sees you can be placed on the registry, happened to a classmate of mine back in high-school.
OldCarWorshipper: If that's the case, then how does every adult at a family-oriented nudist resort avoid being charged as a sex offender? USA laws are so strange and stupid sometimes.
What happened to your friend exactly? And what was the aftermath?
Rov422: I think at nudist resorts you have to be 18 to be there? But I'm not sure 🤷
As for the kid in gym class basically we had to run a mile around the track, he had to go to the restroom and couldn't make it back to the locker room, so he just stepped off to the side over by the bleachers and was caught by the teacher, they sent him to the office and they actually called the cops on him and he got charged with public urination. I didn't actually know him but I heard he had to go on the registry because he exposed himself on school property.
OldCarWorshipper: See... ruining a kid's life over something like that is just plain evil.

And should they choose to accept or greatly display a disagreement, then it’s on the other party’s end. I would not cold turkey and lie but I won’t candy coat anything.

1661485404 | 1661528701 | t3_wxyiuw | t5_2to41 | 9 | Mindless-Ad-7529: TIFU by calling the police one potential shooter
(Sorry for spelling errors I’m on mobile)This was more like yesterday but the conflict has continued into today.So my friends finally get out of school at 3:30 (we don’t go to the same school in fact I’m home schooled)I text in the group chat on discord because at the time I know they’ve gotten out of school and are able to chat.I open the app and see a conversation about how the school day was and how a conflict came up at the school.One of my Friends says how someone in there class threatened to bring a gun to school and shoot it all because he was mad at some teachers.He asked questions like “where would you hide if a school shooter came to the school and for some reason my friend tells him.So now she’s panicking in the group chat and saying how she’s not gonna go and now all of the other friends in the group chat start panicking too.None of them want to call the cops to tell them that there might be a potential shooter coming to school the next day.So me thinking that I could be a good friend tells them that I will do it for them.The person who has mentioned the shooter has now gone to practice.So the other friends tell me information about the kid as I text 911 (I texted because it’s my first time)and then I finish the report.Maybe 45 minutes go by and I get a call from a school officer who says he needs to a report (at this time very on in the group chat is aware that I have texted the police)so instead of calling I text and wait.An hour later goes bye and the officer has responded asking if I can do a repot in person and I ask if I can do it over text and he says yes.So I tell the group chat what is going on and they all give me some info and I tell the officer and he ask to speak to one of my parents.Now me thinking that I did not need to tell my parents I did not tell them.So one lead is to another and the officer is done with.They found the kid.Good I’m thinking,so I yea will the group chat but the person who told about the kid is not happy.She is friends with the kid and did not want to make a report.She says that he has siblings in Mexico and in where I live.She also now decides to tell us that his parents do not have a green card.We argue for at least several hours before we all have to go to bed.the next day comes and she’s still mad.I decide to ignore It.When they get out our friends tell us how the school was on lock down for the day and how the cops went to the kids house and found nothing.All he got was suspended for a week.And now she’s pissed.I can’t fix the situation.I needed to get this off my chest and most of friends In the group chat are on my side.She’s mad How I may have ruined his life and doesn’t care about if he was to shoot up the school and how mayn’t lives that would ruin.
TL;DR:I report a potential shooter and a friend gets mad
Sorry for this being so long…
If You have any suggestions that could help I will take those for consideration.
If you have any questions I can hopefully answer them.
Thank you for reading
QuiGonJinn: So I am considerably older, enjoy firearms, and went to HS in the early 90's in a relatively bad school. Threats of shootings, and shootings outside the school at the park across the street, or the street behind the cafeteria where common.
Now we are in 2022, and Video Games have come to the point where everyone has some kind of system, and there are numerous shooter games. We have seen numerous school shootings, from students, to non-students entering the school and shooting. Thus if there is ANY indication of such an incident, reporting it, even if it comes out to be false, is the safest way. You will upset people, but they will be alive to be upset with you and not dead. You did nothing wrong.
Rov422: >Now we are in 2022, and Video Games have come to the point where everyone has some kind of system, and there are numerous shooter games.
Not sure why you needed to add this part, it's been proven time after time that any source of media (music, video games, movies, tv and books) don't make people commit violent acts. Every generation people try to make up some excuse as to why people do horrible things, but the truth is pretty simple humans are evil creatures and just love killing each other.
QuiGonJinn: Right after Columbine I was working for an arcade company. We had a pizza place in a dent sized city we serviced and had to go remove all shooters.
My point is exposed in the 50s was lone ranger, boanza and a few police dramas. Now I can't scroll Google news without seeing a shooting, every newscast is covering shootings.
My first exposed to violent video games was high school, Doom and Wolfenstein. (class of 95 if you want to do the math). My first gun to fire .22 as a boys out. First gun to own SKS ar 23. I have owned about 50 firearms. I am pro 2A
I follow the logic of Colion Noir. The world is full of evil it's just a question of you will cross paths with evil today.

So I just started a new job at a very large company. I am euphoric at the fact that I I even work for this company. I have worked very hard to get where I am, but I can’t help by feel out of place.
This company is all about diversity, inclusion, and work place environment, and I think it’s amazing.
It feels like the former Marine in me is walking on eggshells. Yes, Marines dress professional and can show respect, but they curse with every other word and always have a can of dip or pack of cigarettes in their pocket. If this makes sense, it was comfortable being in a rough, dirty, high testosterone, and vulgar environment . Now I’m a “business man”…
Yesterday, I’m doing my online training and attending onboarding meetings. All of a sudden I see this guy out of the corner of my eye walking down the hallway and looks jacked. This guys dress business casual and is walking around looking like Ronnie Coleman. These last 2 1/2 years has been crazy and it’s kind of inspirational to see somebody who is committing to the gym as often as this guy. I think nothing of it and then move on.
I’m on one of my mandatory meetings for my onboarding and the guy is there. This guy is one of the leaders who is welcoming me to the company. He goes through the process of introducing himself and giving his background and then passes it off to me.
This is the TIFU: I energies myself as normal giving my background my experience. But then I decided to mention that I had seen him earlier walking down the hallway and thought to myself “Dang that guys HUGE!”.
In the Marines you could say something stupid like that but not in this place. This has been bugging me for the last two days and I just don’t know what to do with myself. It was one of those things where as soon as I said it, it got quiet. I knew I messed up. The guy was very nice about it and just move the conversation along and continued with the meeting.
I just need to keep putting my best foot forward and being mindful of my surroundings in this new environment.
TL:DR
Told a guy at work he was huge and it was weird after.
wasilvers: I played volleyball recreationally with a guy that was pretty big. Turns out he used to be very fat. He changed it to muscle and then was going to cut that. So calling him huge reminded him of "fat".
In a follow up later you can ask about gyms and such to get as cut as him. Might clarify the "huge" comment.
SergeantStoned: Changing fat into muscles... If it was that easy.
wasilvers: He put a lot of work into it. He said he was drinking 10-12 mountain dews a day (IT guy) before this. He was so strong when I met him. After getting fir, he met the woman of his dreams and got married. Literally bought a house with a white picket fence.
Almost a decade later he is still married and has stopped working on the weight. He has some more fat to transform now ;)

1661488678 | 1661510320 | t3_wxzn63 | t5_2to41 | 6 | I__am__batman_: TIFU by running over a puppy!!
As the title suggests I was riding a scooter today morning and ran over a puppy.
I was going very slow 20km/hr or around 12miles/hr. Out of nowhere, from under a garbage truck parked next to me, 2 puppies run to cross the road. I did not have much time to react and I ran over one of them. And the other stray dogs around it,(probably it's mum or dad) started aggressively barking at me so I accelerated in panic and ran over the pup with my back tire as well instead of stopping instantly. The cry of the poor pup is still ringing in my ears as I type this. I went a bit further down to road until I realized it and tried to come back but a passerby who witnessed the incident asked me to go away since the other dogs might bite me. the last I saw the puppy it was lying there on its back with its tongue out, and an older dog (probably its mum helplessly mourning it. I didn't go near it again since I thought the other dogs might bite me and where I live there aren't any organizations/NGOs that can help the pup. It wasn't dead yet but I guess it doesn't have any chances of surviving any longer. The other puppy was fine. Although it isn't dead the guilt is weighing in on me about what if it was a human child I had run over. Kids often suddenly and unexpectedly run off too. I am a 19-year-old.
TLDR; I ran over a puppy on my scooter, it survived but is severely injured.
Affectionate_Ask5505: U a stone cold murderer
I__am__batman_: The puppy isn't dead. And it was an accident.
Responsible_Idiot15: it is probably dead now
I__am__batman_: there is a chance it might have lived but yeah

1661487508 | 1661510539 | t3_wxz8xa | t5_2to41 | 5 | Silver-Analysis1023: TIFU by finding out that my brother's Meniere's may kill him
The inner ear senses levels of carbon dioxide in the body, and then sends the information about the level of carbon dioxide to the brain where the brain then increases or decreases the rate of breathing. Turns out, our ears play a vital role in breathing and those hair cells do not regenerate.
Reubens et al says that if the hair cells of the inner ear get damaged, the brain doesn't have a way of getting any useful information concerning the levels of carbon dioxide in the body. He says this causes Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Experiments with sleeping mice proved his hypothesis as mice with damaged ears did not increase their breathing rate by any significant amount when carbon dioxide levels built up in their bodies, causing them to stop breathing and die. On the other hand, the control mice with healthy ears drastically increased their breathing rate. Since the hair cells of the inner ear sense levels of carbon dioxide in the blood and signal to the brain to regulate breathing, why do these hair cells gradually die with age and do not regenerate? Reubens says that the inner ear hair cells are Chemoreceptors. I don't know how to post links here sorry, but his research got into the news several times and as a result, inner ear injury is regarded as the leading cause of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
TL;DR found out my brother's hair cells in his ear are being gradually destroyed, and his Meniere's is spreading to his other ear as well. Since the inner ear hair cells are vital for the regulation of breathing, my brother could randomly die in his sleep and I wish I never found this out because I'm terrified now and can't sleep properly
AllanfromWales1: I don't know who told you this nonsense but it's pseudoscience. The hairs in the ear do not sense CO2 levels in the body. There is no risk of sudden death by CO2 poisoniing as a result of Meniere's. You're more likely to die from worry-induced sleep loss.
Quick_DMG: To add to this, when CO2 is bound to haemoglobin (the thing that carries oxygen and CO2) in red blood cells, it causes the blood to become acidified. The body uses chemoreceptors to measure the pH (how acidic/basic something is) of the blood, and due to the correlation between pH and concentration (density in a given volume) of CO2, the brain calculates if it needs to increase heart and or breathing rate.

1661494521 | 1661511759 | t3_wy1eej | t5_2to41 | 6 | _throwaway221_: TIFU by going to a sketchy website
Before I start, technically this didn’t happen today but I only realized it was a fuckup today. Yesterday I (17M) was minding my own business doing what normal 17 year olds do on their computers at night when I searched for a specific model on reddit. I usually search for models on reddit hoping I could find some leaked videos or something but not much came up this time. The only clickable website that I could go to was one that I have not heard of before. Me being a horny teenager clicked it anyway and up popped up a website that looked promising, no warnings from windows defender or ublock and it had the content I was looking for. That was my first fuckup. The problem was that the video player was laggy whenever I skipped through the video and eventually it froze completely. I stupidly was didn’t click off the website and put it into full screen to see if it would load the video.
For some reason my computer screen went white and I couldn’t do anything so I quickly pressed f11 to get out of full screen mode when it happened. 2 random tabs opened on my computer and I fucking spammed the x as fast as humanly possible to close them and up came a warning from ublock as I feared. I slightly panicked, looked through task manager to see if anything has noticeably change. I did notice 2 programs not using much ram or cpu that I haven’t seen before in task manager but me being me dismissed them as just being those random programs that run in the background so your pc could run. That was my second fuckup. I knew something was off I fucking knew something was off I just couldn’t put my finger on it and I was too scared that my pc would die if I ended the processes of those random programs.
And I thought that was that, nothing bad actually happened then but fast forward almost exactly 24 hours after I clicked the link. I was back on my computer like clock work doing the same thing I was yesterday when I went onto twitter this time. I was scrolling through models twitter pages when all of a sudden the Xbox gamebar shows up out of nowhere. Usually that only shows up if you pressed win+g on the keyboard or have a controller plugged in put I was no where near either of those things. Me weirded out was like “what the fuck just happened?” And tried to click out of it but it kept showing up. That’s when the nail in the coffin showed up, there was a courser in the gamebar that was moving over to the capture button which takes a screenshot of the desktop, WHILE I HAD NSFW OPEN. I fucking unplugged my computer as fast as the fucking flash as I wanted no proof out there that I was jerking, even if it was some random guy I would never meet.
TL;DR I clicked on a sketchy NSFW website which led to a hacker gaining access to my computer and almost screenshotting my desktop.
PS. I don’t know what to do now, I feel like my computer is compromised which sucks because it has 500gb worth of stuff on there. And if I tell anyone irl, I would be too embarrassed to tell them how it happened.
Nemair: That sucks. Wjhat I'd do is to start up the pc without an internet connection save any documents you need to keep on an external drive (if they aren't on the cloud already) and reset pc to factory settings . Hopefully that will eliminate the malware.
Edit: I'm no pc expert though so mayhaps this is the worst thing to do but in my noob mind this sounds a reasonable method to get rid of it.
Quick_DMG: Yeah, the main task would be to remove the windows service style malware. As it runs in the background you may be able to use task manager to find the file location by right clicking and opening file location but then you have to be sure that you only delete the bad stuff and that they haven't put other backdoors in.
All in all, if you don't know much about computers, do what was said. Boot up without an internet connection so they cannot access your computer remotely, save anything important, and reset.

I knew something was off I fucking knew something was off I just couldn’t put my finger on it and I was too scared that my pc would die if I ended the processes of those random programs.
And I thought that was that, nothing bad actually happened until today, almost exactly 24 hours after I clicked the link. I was back on my computer like clock work doing the same thing I was yesterday when I went onto twitter this time. I was scrolling through models twitter pages when all of a sudden the Xbox gamebar shows up out of nowhere. Usually that only shows up if you pressed win+g on the keyboard or have a controller plugged in put I was no where near either of those things. Me weirded out was like “what the fuck just happened?” And tried to click out of it but it kept showing up. That’s when the nail in the coffin showed up, there was a courser in the gamebar that was moving over to the capture button which takes a screenshot of the desktop, WHILE I HAD NSFW OPEN. I fucking unplugged my computer as fast as the fucking flash as I wanted no proof out there that I was jerking, even if it was some random guy I would never meet.
TL;DR I clicked on a sketchy NSFW website only to have my computer get hacked and possibly have bad stuff happen.
P.S. I don’t know what to do. My information could probably been stolen and my computer is probably boned.

I believe that Jesus died for my sins. I know He loves me, but I never feel happy and people pick up on that. I rarely smile. My voice is very mellow and I'm not an upbeat type of person. I've tried being more exciting and animated, but it always comes across as being really fake. Mostly because it is. I don't think I have a lot of reasons in life to really be that happy anyways. Even when really good things are happening to me sometimes I feel like it doesn't change my mood. One of the few things in life that actually gets me close to feeling happiness is being around women that I like, but I always get rejected by them so it just makes me more depressed. I don't know what to do anymore, but this isn't it. Reading my Bible and going to church sometimes gives me a temporary boost, but then its back to feeling sad again.
I don't think any woman is going to want me because I never look like I'm enjoying life. I'm usually not. I just feel like I was set up to fail and it sucks. I've spent a lot of time blaming God, blaming the devil, and blaming myself and I don't know who is at fault here. Life is just sucking for me.
tl;dr I never feel happy
ScottGolden: Honestly try Taoism and or focus on meditation you might heal. The church can make depression worse for some might be time to try a different approach
pl9tos: i was just learning what Taoism & Daoism is today. & i agree with you!
ScottGolden: I was on track to being a Christian pastor for years but always felt lost in the church b/c things just never improved in my life. Turned away from all faith for a few years then went to a shaman who introduced me to Taoism and found peace. Been that way for a dozen years
pl9tos: whoa, that’s amazing! i am not at all a religious person, but i come from a very strict Christian household. i may just look into Taoism 😊
ScottGolden: If I can help your journey feel free to reach out. May you find your pathway to progress and peace!
pl9tos: thank you so much!

1661503281 | 1661590814 | t3_wy3sor | t5_2to41 | 3,864 | glorykagy: TIFU by leaving my dream job to enroll in a startup with a friend of mine
For context, I (23M) live a middle eastern country and work in the software development field, I dropped out of college to become a self-taught software developer and I think I made it. Earlier this year I got a promotion to a Senior Backend Developer, it was my dream job and I was so happy. My job paid very well and I could support my family (I have a sick mom and an old dad).
Everything was going well until 3 months ago a friend of mine asked me to join him as a partner in his startup and I agreed.
I left my job in a hurry to "catch up to the market" although I knew it wasn't necessary. We started working on our project and I burned all my savings into this startup and now it's all falling apart.. we only have a prototype.. we are in debt.. I'm personally in a lot of debt and I might go to prison for it. I no longer can support my family or enjoy life, I can't sleep at night and I can't stop thinking I made the wrong life choice.
We are going ahead into a pitch next Tuesday, it's our last hope and if we don't pull it off we'll be totally f*ucked, my friend seems confident we'll pull it off but I'm not.
Looking back I really regret my choice, I wish I have listened to my family and friends who advised me against it.
TL;DR I left my well-paid dream job to join my friend's startup that's falling apart and now I'm such a huge debt and I might go to prison.
Update: Our investors sent out an email at last minute asking for a delay, so it will be next week
Bi-Bi-Bi24: Yikes.
I don't know if you're asking for advice, but I would consider this pitch your "make it or break it". If it doesn't work, get out and get a job to start paying off those debts
glorykagy: Thanks for the advice, it's really "make it or break it", I've already started looking for a job but it won't be that easy (there's a relatively small market for software development in my country)
mamhaidly: Fellow middle eastern here, I would say don't limit your job hunt to your country if you're able to work remotely. If you have the necessary infrastructure, I would suggest you start looking in Europe, especially Germany. Once you get a job, you can start immediately based on a contract while you wait for your visa. Feel free to reach out if you need advice regarding applying etc.
gastrognom: Out of curiosity, why would you suggest Germany?
Acoasma: german companies are looking for devs. we have a strong economy here, but the boomers are about to retire and there isnt enough young people to fill the role. Germany has a very diverse economy with a lot of SMEs in niche fields and most of them require some very specific software. In fact I do believe germany NEEDS well educated immigrants to keep its economy as strong as it is now, or it will crawl to an halt in the next few decades.
good thing is, that the social security and quality of life, as well as the pay is pretty good here, so it is an attractive country for a lot of folks.
gingermalteser: The same is true in the Netherlands. We have a massive shortage of workforce and a lot of companies are recruiting. Salaries for new positions are rocketing up and people seeking jobs have more power than ever when negotiating salaries.
STRXP: Do you have any suggestions for finding these jobs? US worker here.
Isgortio: I don't know if they'd pay as much as they do in the US. Software dev pay in the US is ridiculous compared to everywhere else in the world.
drewster23: Would depend how high level he is.
Any type of senior /niche specific dev, pays enough.
Low level /entry level definitely not ridiculous.

What?
Falcia: We have decided to be exclusive. Ergo will not pursue someone else.
slapshots1515: I will start off by saying “to each their own”, but I will also say even as someone who just married someone they were in a long distance relationship with for a very long time, I can’t imagine not meeting face to face with someone I was exclusive with for over three years. What places are you in that still restrict travel that heavily? I’m from the US and traveling all over Europe right now and nearly every place has lifted theirs, especially if you’re vaccinated.
Falcia: I’m a Canadian and he’s American. We can not cross the boarder without being vaccinated, which neither of us are.
slapshots1515: Ah. Have to say, I live right on the American-Canadian border and I don’t see that situation resolving any time soon. I’m no fan of vaccine mandates but I did mine just to get on with my life. Not to tell you what to do but if I were one of you I’d bite the bullet.

1661506011 | 1661516706 | t3_wy4jzm | t5_2to41 | 465 | Tr1g0: TIFU by not realizing there was a moment of silent after a shooting that occured the week before.
**This story turns out a bit funny but the events who lead to this moment are extremely serious and shouldn't be taken as a joke.
Ok so this one happened a month ago on July 10th.
As we all probably know on July 3rd there was a shooting at the Field's shopping mall in Copenhagen, Denmark.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-62030919.amp
My family and I planned a trip to both Denmark and Norway.
We arrived at Denmark on July 10th afternoon. We were supposed to board a cruise the next day, so we did what any reasonable family who wanted to save some money would do, and went to the supermarket to buying supplies for the following days. That's where the fuckup begins.
We arrive at the mall, park the car and go inside. After spending some time looking around buying some unnecessary stuff for my sisters and such. We go inside the supermarket. Like any other big supermarket they had speakers so they could let customers know about any possible changes, sales or anything else relevant.
About 30 minutes in we hear another call of some sort(all of the calls where in Danish so we didn't understand a single word), afterwards everybody around us remained silent and didn't move. It took me about 45 seconds to realize everybody was dead staring at us. If there was one more thing I should mention, is that my family and especially my sisters are VERY loud. After realizing we were being stared at I went to my father, while going towards him we hear a voice coming out the speakers followed by everybody around us returning to do whatever they were doing.
I reach my father and tell him about what happened... Turns out nobody on my family noticed the situation. I went to one the workers in the store and asked him why everybody was standing still and he told me it was because of the shooting last week. I told him we were sorry and that we didn't notice what was happening, and he said it was fine and we had a little laugh about it. He also told us we were kinda funny to look at.
We proceeded to have a wonderful trip both in Denmark and Norway and I have to say to the people of Denmark you are incredibly nice and kind!!
TL:DR we didn't realize there was a moment of silent at the mall after a shooting the week before and everybody stared at us and thought we were funny.
stumblinbear: I was on a train in Germany a few days ago. Was my first time on one and it had missed a scheduled departure. Thirty minutes go by and someone walked through the cabin yelling something in German, and half the people inside got up and walked out. I gave up waiting after an hour of sitting on that train.
I still have no idea what he said, but I feel like it was important.
CoffeeBeanx3: Well - German trains are basically purgatory, but if you had asked someone they likely would have been able to translate for you. Or they would have tried in very bad English.
stumblinbear: I asked. Everyone who stayed only knew English.
I have the distinct feeling that he was telling everyone how long the delay would be, and that all the Germans left because it was going to be ages.
CoffeeBeanx3: Well, that's most likely it, then. Was it a train employee who just ran in and left after the announcement, or just a random guy? Because if it was the former, I'd probably complain. That way you might get at least a partial refund, and honestly, if there's one good reason to be a Karen it's the entirety of DB. They're ridiculously awful and should be held responsible at every possible point until they finally change.
stumblinbear: >Was it a train employee who just ran in and left after the announcement, or just a random guy?
Absolutely no idea. It was my first time setting foot in Germany, and on a train in Germany. How am I supposed to know what employees look like, haha
>That way you might get at least a partial refund,
No worries mate, 9 EUR ticket for all public transport till the end of the month. Not worth the effort, haha
CoffeeBeanx3: Train employees wear a suit/dress with DB embroidered on it, a dark blue and red colour scheme.
[Just for future reference.](https://www.horizont.net/marketing/nachrichten/deutsche-bahn-das-sind-die-neuen-uniformen-von-guido-maria-kretschmer-168928/amp)
They're pretty easy to spot once you know what to look for.
Also I hope the rest of your stay in Germany was better, and consisted of less train time. (Seriously, FUCK our trains. I hate them so much.)
stumblinbear: >Train employees wear a suit/dress with DB embroidered on it, a dark blue and red colour scheme.
Only saw him from the back, I think it was dark blue.
oh no.
CoffeeBeanx3: Well, then he may have been a royal ass and bad at his job 😂
I'm so sorry about that. I hope that they sort our trains out one day.

itstrueitsdamntrue: This is the most obviously fake TIFU I’ve ever seen, and that’s in a sub full of fake shit. Besides there being several contradictions in the story itself, what kind of homeless drug addict would ever have extra drugs to just blow in peoples face? Not to mention the casual assault and battery in front of a cop.
single_malt_jedi: NGL....Im right there with you. Not even drug addicts with homes will blow a bunch of powder in your face.
Fatdubee: No they wouldn't. I don't think they did on purpose.
itstrueitsdamntrue: How in the world would someone “accidentally” blow powder in your face. This makes even less sense. And btw, so you can clean up your story for next time, you’re not going to have really even a negligible amount of PCP from EXHALED smoke, that’s just not how it works, certainly not enough to do permanent damage.
Stonethecrow77: And exactly how would be know exactly what the drugs were on both counts?
Fatdubee: Tbh idk. On my hospital record is said that I was diagnosed with an altered mind State due to an unknown drug or toxin. But the guy that the cops talked to that was in that group of people I attacked said that it was PCP and fentanyl.
frischance: Easy way to prove story would be upload a pic of this chart
Fatdubee: Someone please tell me how to do that

1661510617 | 1661633778 | t3_wy5vfa | t5_2to41 | 68,893 | NotEvenTop3: TIFU playing a game with my gf
This is one of those play stupid games, win stupid prizes stories. A week ago I (25m) came up with an exercise for my gf (28) and I. The task was simple. Create a vision board aka those things people used to do where they put pictures on a board of all the achievements they hoped to accomplish in life. My vision board had the same concept, however, the content on the board only applied to achievements my gf and I were still hoping to experience sexually. I thought it could be fun and sexy.
My gf thought it was silly, but agreed to participate. Last night was the deadline. The two of us presented our vision boards to each other for the very first time. We had no idea what was on the other person's vision board until that moment. Both our vision boards were done digitally so we had to connect our laptops to the TV during our presentations. I went first. My vision board featured the following: public sex (not necessarily in front of people, but wherever there's a risk of getting caught), threesome, sex on drugs (whichever drug is recommended), BDSM, and finally, butt stuff (my butt). That was the end.
My gf was next. Her vision board featured the following: an orgasm. That was it. The word orgasm with a period at the end. My gf said she's never had an orgasm before. At first I didn't believe her because she's always been very vocal and extremely convincing about climaxing during sex. My gf came clean and said she was faking it. She's always faked it. And not just with me but with every other guy she's been with. She said in her experience the truth usually came out one way or another and the vision board was our moment of truth. To be honest, I was still kind of okay at that point, but then she said I was in her top 5 list of people who came close to making her orgasm for real.
I shouldn't have, but I couldn't help but ask if I was number one. In the spirit of transparency, my gf said no. I questioned my gf long enough to realize that I was in the bottom 2 of the top 5 and that the number 1 spot was one of her cousins. A guy we still see from time to time at family events. I was emotionally exhausted and suggested that we got to sleep and unpack everything in the morning.
However, this morning our dog needed to be taken to the vet because the poor guy tried to jump on the bed to say hello but forgot he's like a thousand years old, so he hurt himself. I'm at the vet now. My dog is gonna be okay. I figured while I wait I might as well create an account and share my story on here. Maybe y'all can laugh at me or with me or give me some advice on the way forward. Either way, thanks for reading.
**Tl;dr I came up with the idea for my gf and I to create a vision board of all the sexual achievements we still want to unlock in our lives. My vision board included things like public sex and threesomes, whereas hers included the one thing my ego was unprepared for, an orgasm.**
_ALH_: Pro tip:
If someone says you're in "top 5" it _always_ means bottom 2. If it wasn't they would have said "top 3".
NotEvenTop3: Holy shit.
sonyap: But on the plus side, helping her achieve orgasm will bump you up to the top!
gr8dayne01: Man, I would take this on as my life’s main goal from then on. Low pressure, of course, but I would be experimenting.
Edit: the reason she was honest is she likes you and wants you to help her with this issue.
Curious-Ad-8382: I’d break up immediately what
knives66: Because you would be insecure about it, or?
Curious-Ad-8382: It’s called incest moron
knives66: Look around at any porn site, it's 60% incest. Not a far reach from step sister to cousin. Some people are into it. Not like they had a kid together.
Curious-Ad-8382: Lmao have fun staying inbred. Straight people are fucking dumb dogs lmao. Also: look into discerning reality from fantasy.
krogerburneracc: Odd time to shoehorn in your heterophobia but okay.
Curious-Ad-8382: Show me a study showing that lgbtq watches incest porn and I’ll take it back. Not like you guys are the good guys anyways lol
krogerburneracc: Google "Gay incest porn" real quick. Go ahead, I'll wait. *Who the fuck do you think the demographic is for* **gay** *incest porn?*
To be clear, I'm not into incest. Most people aren't, straight or otherwise. Not defending it either.
That you would label me "the bad guy" based on a nine word post is as baseless and absurd as your worldview. As you so aptly put it to a different commenter; "Look into discerning reality from fantasy."
Curious-Ad-8382: No need to get mad. I didn’t call you personally the bad guy, just your demographic is a little stinky. That’s all, I’m sure you already know that.
krogerburneracc: People can, and will, be mad when you make hateful generalizations. Saying "It's not personal" doesn't magically absolve you of social accountability. The assossiation you've made between heterosexuality and incest is flawed and lends no basis to labeling straight people as "fucking dumb dogs". You can voice a disapproval of incest without arbitrarily making it about straight people.
Likewise, someone pointing out your heterophobic rhetoric is not a tacit defense of incest, nor a qualifier of their own sexuality. Assuming anything about what demographic I fall into is completely baseless and self-serving.
All demographics are "a little stinky" - That's not a justifiable reason to make hateful generalizations.
Telling someone to "have fun staying inbred" for pointing out the fetishization of incest in pornography is *incredibly toxic*. There was no tacit approval of incest by u/knives66, he was just pointing out an observable trend.
Curious-Ad-8382: Isn’t this kind of like the people that complain about it reverse racism? I don’t really believe in that, and I don’t believe that perfectly justified and healthy phobia against heterosexuality is the same as people who want to murder gay and trans folks.
I should revise my statement, gay people involved in incest is also heavily degenerate, however I do believe it happens a lot less often. But for the record I’m ace so these problematic issues don’t really exist in our community thankfully.
Please don’t compare the LGBT demographic to the straight demographic, it’s very reductionary and offensive.
krogerburneracc: > Isn’t this kind of like the people that complain about it reverse racism? I don’t really believe in that
"Reverse Racism" is considered to be a false concept because institutional power dynamics inherently favor the majority. Affirmative action is a means to establish equality, and thus cannot be considered discriminatory. It's *incredibly important* for you to understand that Reverse Racism is an *institutional* concept. Its falsehood does not inherently legitimize prejudice against the majority. Members of the majority can still face discrimination and prejudice, it's just not considered racism in an institutional sense.
So no, it's not at all similar. Demonizing heterosexuals as incestual degenerates is purely prejudice in nature, and that prejudice is not inherently legitimate just because it's targeted at the majority group.
> I don’t believe that perfectly justified and healthy phobia against heterosexuality is the same as people who want to murder gay and trans folks.
Whatever "valid" reasons there might be to hate straight people, a baselessly supposed predisposition to incest isn't one of them. And I shouldn't need to say this, but the majority of straight people don't want to murder LGBTQ folks. You're making another hateful generalization encompassing *most of the population* based on a subset of assholes. It's completely divorced from reality. Hate the assholes, not the collective. Genuinely, there's no such thing as "healthy, justified" prejudice.
> I should revise my statement, gay people involved in incest is also heavily degenerate
Good!
> however I do believe it happens a lot less often
Damn, you were so close. Again, *this is a completely baseless assumption* that you're making fueled *purely by your own bias*. Unless you can substantiate this claim with hard data, you have *no actual reason* to assume this.
> Please don’t compare the LGBT demographic to the straight demographic, it’s very reductionary and offensive.
**YOU'RE LITERALLY THE ONE WHO MADE THE COMPARISON**
> Show me a study showing that lgbtq watches incest porn
We wouldn't be discussing LGBTQ if *you* hadn't have felt the need to compare the two! What the actual fuck?

So I (22F) found my dad’s old MP3 player that I used to listen to music on when I was a child. I don’t live with them and I was basically just rummaging through drawers trying to find a bracelet.
I change the MP3’s batteries only there’s no music on it, just recordings. So of course I start listening and at the beginning it’s only a static sound. However, after I skip some of it, half an hour later hell basically breaks loose and I hear my parents arguing with each other. My dad was the one secretely recording, went to my mum in the morning to wake her up and told her they had to talk. They start screaming at each other and then eventually I find out that she cheated on him with a close family friend and that dad has been recording her without her knowledge on several occasions. My dad’s an alcoholic and I kind of get it that she was lonely and depressed but I definitely did not want to find out and not like this. I stopped listening but there are many other recordings on that device. Should I keep going? To be honest I’m scared of what else is on there or what proof he has that she has cheated, there may be a conversation there between her and the family friend.
It all just feels surreal.
TL;DR: Found old MP3 player, opened it to check out what music it had and found out my mum cheated on my dad from the recordings my dad took on it.
This_Space_For_Rnt: My mom had an internet affair back in the early 2000’s. She had saved all their emails. I have them on a file on my pc and have read them all. My dad was very verbally abusive to all of us and she couldn’t take it. It helped me to understand where she was coming from even though it hurt reading them. I’ll say listen to them. A little at a time, with caution and if it gets to be too much stop.
car_freak1: Thank you for the advice and I am sorry that happened to you, I hope both you and your mom are doing well!
This_Space_For_Rnt: Thanks, hope your doing well with it all too. Neither myself or my mom are ok. Mom passed from lung cancer in 2016 and my wife passed last year so it’s been a shit run of luck for a while but that’s life.
car_freak1: I am truly sorry to hear that.
If you ever need someone to talk to, feel free to message me!
This_Space_For_Rnt: Thanks, same to you. It’s hard work though a parents infidelity issues even if you completely understand the why.
Vladimirovic_zD: Complete stranger here, haven't gone through anything like this. But would like to offer an ear, to either of you, if need may be :).
It's good to have a (safe) place to be able to get rid of some thoughts. So if need may be. Feel free to shoot me a message :)
This_Space_For_Rnt: Thanks, I’m past everything with my mom, her and dad are both gone and they eventually sorta worked it out in their own weird way.
Vladimirovic_zD: 🫂 You got this bud! You should be proud of yourself!

1661508723 | 1661553988 | t3_wy5bhd | t5_2to41 | 40 | whatifitsasimulation: TIFU by having anger issues
English isn't my first language, so I apologies for any mistakes or not bring able to explain things really well.
I always had some problems with anger, especially video game rage. I've destroyed some things before : I jumped on a tablet with my knees...but I was too little to understand what happened so I just closed it and hoped the next day it's gonna be fixed. I also broke a tiny bit of the glass on a phone, thankfully it was barely something. AND I also broke not only my keyboard by hitting the poor space button a trillion times after losing, but I also hit it with my fist, which resulted in the keyboard support of my desk to fall ( you know some desks have that little thing under for your keyboard? That thing ).
I used to hit my phone, but I realised what I was doing and managed to control myself. Well this wasn't the case today. Around a month ago I lightly punched my monitor. That happened again, and once more. Today was the worst and most expensive thing I destroyed, and that's my monitor. I was playing like usual, when I got so mad, I believe I punched my monitor full force. I honestly have no idea how much force I used, but I swear right before I hit the monitor, I somehow knew I'm gonna break it. 0.3 seconds later my fist touched my monitor, and I see the beautiful and colorful sign of a screen being fucked. After a good 4 seconds of staring at it in shock and hanging no idea if I was dreaming or not, or perhaps hallucinating, I realised what I've just done. I spent half an hour going in circles thinking about how I'm gonna tell my parents ( I'm underage ) and how they're gonna unalive me. I need to mention this : the country I live in is fairly poor compared to the US, meaning people don't have a high budget, let alone if you're a minor who doesn't work. I then spent the next hour browsing monitors that are cheap and similar to the one I just broke. I mainly did that because I liked this monitor, and didn't want to switch to something completely different.
I am now sitting here writing this, for some reason calm and relaxed. I can tell my mom, she probably won't be too mad, and we will figure out how we can buy the monitor ASAP. Now, the 2nd reason I want a similar monitor is my dad. He is almost always mad, and every little thing is my fault, somehow me being scared of something is a huge deal and it's of course... my fault. If he finds out I broke it, I don't know what he's gonna do. If he ever noticed, I could say it broke or something, but I'll think about it some more.
I found a monitor, the specs are pretty much the same, except it's 2 inches bigger. The only thing I'm worried about are the colors, which hopefully will be similar. I will pay for it with my own money, I do not expect/want my mom to help pay for it, and if she does I will give it back to her whenever I collected the money. I just have to wait for her to come back from work, figure out how to tell her and then figure out how we will do this do my dad won't see ( especially when it arrives ). I'm calm now, but my already severe anxiety will skyrocket when it's time to tell my mom, so any advice is appreciated, if you can even give advice on this.
I definitely learned my lesson and will try my absolute best not to hit anything out of anger, as even if nothing happens at first, it can be a huge regret after some time.
TL;DR: I believe I had anger issues with video games since I was a child, I now full force punched and broke my monitor. Me and my mom have to figure out a way to order and set up a new one without my dad noticing right away ( I'll pay for everything ). Let's hope I won't repeat this in the future.
LurksAroundHere: The first step to fixing a problem is becoming aware of it, which you are and that's good because if you don't get past your anger issues now while you're young you could be looking at serious injuries or even jail time in the future (if your issues get worse and you turn it on people.)
I recommend that you "wean" yourself off your anger. For example, set aside some money and buy a nice big pillow or plush toy. Label it your anger plush. And make sure you have it on hand whenever you know you'll be doing an activity that might anger you (like playing a video game) and the next time you get the urge to do something like smash the keyboard or punch the monitor, quickly transfer your anger to the plush. Do anything you want to it. Beat the hell out of it lol.
Once you get used to being able to "quick switch" your anger to your plush, try your best to add a countdown/deep breathing moment to your anger bursts. Try your best to count to ten while taking some deep breaths before punching. If you find you can't do it, grab your pillow and punch away. But keep trying your best to get to the stage where you can count to a full ten, and take a few deep breaths, and calm yourself without punching at all. Your future self will definitely thank you if you learn how to redirect these outbursts into a more rational state of mind. Plus you won't break anymore stuff, including your fingers lol.
whatifitsasimulation: Thanks for the advice. I will definitely get an anger plush
LurksAroundHere: You're very welcome! I have faith you'll be able to get over your anger issues if you just work a little at trying to stay focused! And if you get good enough at regulating your emotions you'll most likely start to see your anxiety alleviating as as well :)
whatifitsasimulation: Anxiety is a big problem for me, so knowing that is amazing
LurksAroundHere: Yeah, it definitely will help! You're younger, so you're going to be having a lot of hormones going through you making you feel things like extreme anxiety but what not enough people tell young people is that you don't have to be a slave to your emotions/mental state and you don't always have to feel bad or worried all the time. (And I don't mean the classic yet unhelpful statements like someone telling you "just don't be anxious!" That never works and is dismissive of your feelings!) But you yourself can actively take control of and even reform your emotions by doing certain things. Things such as making sure you're hydrated with water, eating healthy fruits/vegetables, getting out in the sunshine to make sure you get your vitamin D.
Anxiety is a tricky thing that feels like a dark blanket covering up your senses and it wants to fool you into thinking you can't do anything about it and you'll always feel that way and never get out of a dark pit of worry...but that's not true.
Another step you could take is to possibly pick up a journal and start scribbling down the moments you feel the most anxious, whether it's doing something at school, talking to a certain person, etc. and then write out a kind message alongside it to yourself about how it's ok to feel this way. Even if you don't have a solution for it, sometimes you just need a little self reassurance of your own feelings and writing it down can be very therapeutic. :)
whatifitsasimulation: Thank you so much for all this advice. I always feel like I won't be able to get rid of my anxiety, but as you said, it can also just be my health. I'm not really following any "healthy living" thing, I don't even drink enough water.
I will do the journal one too, I also heard that you can apparently get rid of it by doing the things that make you anxious, which I can see how it works, and I want to do it, but also a part of my brain tells me not to because...well it makes me anxious. A self reassurance would also be really nice.
Once again, that you for all of this :)
LurksAroundHere: No problem! And you are so correct. Doing the things that give you anxiety can have a massive healing effect, but like you said, it's the anxiety keeping you from doing it so it's hard figuring out how to start. I guarantee if you take these small steps towards alleviating your anxiety, you'll start to feel better in just a couple of weeks and your journal will help show you your progress! :) I wish you all the best in working towards a happier outlook. You got this!
whatifitsasimulation: Thank you, I wish you the same if you're going through something. <3
LurksAroundHere: Aw thank you as well! :)

1661519539 | 1661564945 | t3_wy8vsl | t5_2to41 | 12,396 | LiveLaughLoveTrump: TIFU by shaving my a**hole
So, I (35M) once saw this standup comedian going on and on about how everyone should shave their asshole, because shit and stuff get stuck. I thought it sounded reasonable, but never tried it. Today I had a shower after being sick for a while, and noticed the hair down there kind of stuck together. Kind of disgusted, I remembered said comedian, and when trimming my beard, I thought what the hell, let’s give it a go! So I did. I crouched and trimmed the hair where the sun never shines. Nice and smooth. And as luck would have it, I needed to poop shortly after, and boy was it easy to wipe! I thought it was a great success!
Until…
You see, I work in a very quiet office environment, where around 10 men *and* women sit in the same room and concentrate on their computer screen. Once in a while, it so happens that I need to fart. When doing so at work, one essential skill is to be able to do so without making any sound, which I am usually quite able to.
Today was no different, the fart was coming, I leaned subtly to one side to let the ass cheeks spread a little, and started to let the gas pass, only, it was not silent! I immediately stopped the flow, blushed like a tomato, and hoped to god nobody noticed. “That was odd,” I thought to myself. Like I said, I never had any problems with this, at all. And as the need was still there, I soon later subtly leaned over to the other side, and made *really* sure I was in the correct “silent farting position”, and tried again.
This time it was even louder, and I couldn’t stop! I wanted to die. I’ve hardly been so embarrassed my entire life. And the realization dawned on me, with a smooth and hairless asshole, I’m no longer able to fart silently!
I need a new job. Maybe have to catch Covid and work from home the next 5-10 years.
At least my coworkers, whom I am sure all heard my “announcement”, were polite enough to not turn their heads or laugh, so I’ve got that going for me…
TLDR;
Shaved my asshole for hygiene after having heard a standup comedian talk about it. Found out at work, in a quiet room with 10 men and women, that I can no longer fart without making a sound. Now I can no longer make eye contact with my coworkers. I guess I was the joke all along.
MaximumEngineering8: Hahaha! I learned the same lesson the hard way too. Just wait 2-3 days, and then you can add the "prickly ass" feeling to the list as they grow back in. It only lasts a few days, but ugh.
LiveLaughLoveTrump: Oh… I really “look forward” to that. But thanks for the heads up, and for the comfort it won’t last too long! 🙂
ttsat: Lotion to make the hairs less briskly,its a great time
(Man with hairy ass crack who thought wiping would be easier)
KeyboardJustice: Slippery cheeks all day sounds even worse!
lulugingerspice: Baby oil or a bit of Vaseline works even better! You just use enough to soften the hair shafts as they grow in, not enough to insert a dildo lol
Source: am a woman who regularly trims and waxes the bush.
FrankieTheAlchemist: Does that work for leg hair too? I uhhh know a guy who got drunk while taking a bath and maybe hypothetically possibly experimentally shaved his legs and then found out it feels great until the hair grows in. Uhhh you wouldn’t know that person though, they live in a different country and they’re totally cool and definitely not me.
lulugingerspice: Hahaha yes it does. You can tell your overly curious drunken friend that when you shave, the hair grows in from the middle of the shaft like | | which is what makes it itch. When you wax, it tears out the follicle of the hair, so it grows in like (). To help stop the itching and help prevent ingrown hairs, moisturize after shaving.
Also, exfoliate. It gets rid of that nasty dead skin and makes ~~your~~ your friend's skin silky smooth and goes further to help prevent ingrown hairs.
FrankieTheAlchemist: This is actually great info and I will…tell my friend what I have learned. Thank you internet stranger for your kind and helpful knowledge! I bet that drunk guy I know will buy some moisturizing stuff and figure out how to exfoliate and none of this will ever get awkward when my wife finds me…uhhh…finds HIM in the middle of the process. Which again, would definitely be happening in a different place to a different person. 👍🏼
lulugingerspice: An easy effective homemade exfoliant is sugar and olive oil. Mix into a thick paste, and then rub it into your friend's legs (or any skin part. Except don't let your friend exfoliate their tender bits with this). Then wash the area thoroughly with soap and a loofa or washcloth to get all the excess oil off!
FrankieTheAlchemist: Do you have some sort of news letter that my friend can subscribe to? I feel like I…uhhh he…is really learning the secret cheat codes to skincare. ARGH I CAN’T LIE TO YOU ANYMORE. It was me okay? I did it. I was the drunk guy and I’m not even living in a different country than myself. I just wanted to feel smooth for once 😭. DONT LOOK AT ME MAGIC SKIN CARE INTERNET STRANGER
lulugingerspice: Hahahahaha thank you for this very pure internet interaction! I do not have a newsletter, but tbh I learned everything I know on Pinterest!
FrankieTheAlchemist: Indeed, it was very nice to not be insulted or otherwise attacked on the internet. Thank you :-)

1661518731 | 1661561417 | t3_wy8k1d | t5_2to41 | 24 | Significant-Way4411: TIFU at school
I f-Ed up
So basically I had met a girl over snap, she was attractive or whatever and it just went from there…and as a hormonal teen guy, it led to other things which led to me and her being “together”…to preface im 16 and she said she was “15”(more on that later) but was in the 8th grade and had gotten held back or started late, whatever. So we had been together for about a month and hadn’t been really in person. And if you know anything about middle schoolers/relationships, they say “I love you” way too much and too fast. Should’ve been a red flag tbh, but I regress. This week we stayed after school, and well we met up at the middle school…I was just kinda wanting to hangout and talk a bit before doing ANYTHING, but not her…as soon as we got close to one of the bathrooms she grabbed my hand, no asking, no nothing, and led me into the bathroom. I told her I wasn’t comfortable with it and kinda looked around at cameras and stuff. Now I am a relatively fit 200lb male, against a maybe 130lb female…I could’ve easily stopped myself, but my mind just wasn’t there, I felt a force and went with it, we got into the GIRLS bathroom, and she just kinda stood there and waited for me to pick a stall…I picked one, she got down, she gave oral, and in all honesty…it was bad…and I was so uncomfortable it wouldn’t of felt good regardless. Well some of her friends were outside the bathroom laughing and stuff so I told her to just go deal with them, and when she left I got all my stuff and dipped, ofc I couldn’t just leave bc she’d probably break down on me later so I just went to the lounge area…basically that’s all that happened that day, the next day I guess stuff spread and people found out, and then the next day (today) I got pulled into our vice principals office and got told he knew what kinda went down…ofc I was honest with him, I didn’t want to lie and honestly had felt guilty and just uncomfortable with the whole situation. He appreciated my honesty and luckily just gave me an after school detention, and then ab an hour later I get a text from her…basically asking if they talked to me and I said yeah and then she said well you can’t tell them what happened, you need to lie, and then she told me what she said…I said ha no too late and wouldn’t do it anyways…but now, just ab my whole school knows and it’s just…idek what to think or do at this point, I’ve cut off communication with her, I’m trying to ignore what people are saying but…it doesn’t help, any little thing seems to set off the thoughts…to make matters worse I told my friends I could trust, and explain what happened and they told me it’s basically assault since I didn’t WANT to do it then and I never said yes, but also didn’t say no…but if I were to say that to anyone who’ll believe me…so yeah, I fucked up and just felt the need to let it all out. Also like the day after found out she was 13 and not 15 so that makes me feel even worse
TL;DR met a girl, got freaky at school, didn’t say no, and got rumors started
Peasentbread: Oh hun, I'm so sorry about this. I'm glad to hear you have friends around you that you can trust, it's always good to communicate how you feel with someone.
And your friends are right, though you didn't say "no" it sounds like you weren't optimistically saying yes either, which means you did not give your consent.
And with regards to the rumours going around, the truth always comes out eventually okay, you keep speaking your truth to whoever you feel comfortable with.
I hope you are doing okay and keep talking to your friends.
Peasentbread: I also want to add, this is in no way you fucking up! Everyone makes mistakes and can get caught up in uncomfortable situations, so please don't be hard on yourself!
Significant-Way4411: Thank you for this it makes me feel better about it, I am absolutely thankful for my friends and people who can actually understand what happened, especially sense adults (like my VP) seems to disregard the possibility of me not wanting to
Peasentbread: I'm glad it could make you feel better because it's 100% true! Just make sure you don't bottle anything up okay☺️
And I'm sorry to hear there are a lot of adults who don't belive you, especially in a school setting where their priority should be to care for students in need, no matter the gender! It really boils my blood how some teachers are so stuck in their sexist/mysogynistic views on MINORS that they end up becoming blind to those who need help.
Is there maybe a school counsellor you can talk to (only if you 100% trust them of course) because it is literally their job to provide unbiased guidance to you. Again only if you feel it will help, if you think it will only add more to the problem then just stick to your close friends.
It will get better! 🥰
Significant-Way4411: We have an amazing school counselor but…I feel like the less people I’m aware that know, the better I feel, even though she would help a lot, I don’t want it to stay alive more than it needs if that makes sense. And I’ve become aware of how sometimes men can sometimes be invalidated but never thought I’d experience it like this…but it should definitely portray a less for the future
Peasentbread: That is completely fair, you do whatever you feel the most comfortable with!😊 And I am happy to hear the counselor is amazing!
Yeah, society definitely depicts men as "sex craving lunatics" when that's not the case at all, I wish you didn't have to experience it first hand, especially when you're still only a minor yourself.
I'm sure you will have a fantastic future, I believe in you!! 🙌😁

1661521806 | 1661641269 | t3_wy9qmh | t5_2to41 | 436 | Throwaway_wett_bed: TIFU by squirting
Yes this is a throwaway account, I know my boyfriend's siblings use reddit and I want as much deniability as possible.
I (22F) have been staying at my boyfriend "Fabian" (22M)'s house for the past week for a little holiday. So far, everything has been great, I absolutely adore his family and they seem to love me too, we've had something nice and fun to do everyday and it's just been a lovely week.
The only downside is that Fabian and I can't have sex.
It's not that we aren't allowed to, but Fabian has an identical twin, "Evan", and his parents house doesn't have enough rooms for each child to have their own space (they have 4 children and only 4 bedrooms) which means we share a room with Evan when he stays over and he's also been here all week (not that we don't want him here of course, we do love his company!) And unfortunately, Fabian and I can't sneak off for some bathroom sex as one of the two bathrooms is out of order due to some plumbing and decorating issues, so there goes our back up plan.
Anyway, on to the actual FU. This afternoon Fabian's parents hosted a get together for all their extended family, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, the whole crew. Midway through the party, Fabian and I notice we can make a break for the bedroom to get some much needed alone time, and it worked for about 10 minutes before Evan comes barging through the door, smug as anything knowing he's interrupting us, and refuses to leave the room as he needed to sort through some games he had to give to a younger cousin or something.
Defeated, Fabian and I leave his bedroom and try to find somewhere else to finish what we started, but as I said the bathroom is out of order and all other bedrooms had people in them. Except one. I don't know why we thought it was a good idea and at our big age age we should have just rejoined the party and delt with our feelings later, but next thing I know we're going full force on his parents bed.
(No, this is not proving Freud right, it was purely for convince sake and nothing else)
As I'm about to orgasm I notice that it feels a little different then usual and I express this concern to my boyfriend, who just tells me to relax and let it out. Big mistake. I end up squirting all over the bed. His PARENTS bed. Luckily it wasn't as big as you see in porn but it left a decent sized puddle all the same. I have never squirted before (I hope to do it again under different circumstances) so me and Fabian just sit in shock for a brief moment before the realisation kicks in that we need to clean this ASAP.
Luckily the duvet and mattress remained dry but the sheet and mattress protector needed some TLC. We stripped and changed the whole bed (pillows and duvet included out of shame).
So now we're both sitting, watching the bed sheets and shame spin around in the washing machine trying to think of what excuses we can make for this one (if you have any suggestions please let us know because we are stumped)
TL;DR : I squirted for the first time all over my boyfriend's parent's bed and now need to come up with a reason for why we had to change their bedclothes.
UPDATE: Okay so, before the other family members left, Fabian's older brother came up to him and said "can't wait to hear about the bedsheets 'Fabian'." apparently he figured I had wrote the post when I discussed their pet Dalmatian in the comments😬
So we figured we'd try be as nonchalant about the bedclothes as we could. So once they dried we put the sheets away and replaced the mattress cover and just said in passing to them "oh btw, earlier something got spilled on your bedclothes so we changed and wash them for you. "Mary" (Fabian's mam) just thanked us and went back to scrolling through her phone and "Adam" (Fabian's dad) sort of just nodded at us. Phew, we thought, all that worry for nothing!
Yeah no, as I was typing the update for you Adam comes over to us and smirking asks "something got spilt eh?". We knew we were caught so Fabian admitted to what happened (ommiting the actual squirt though, he just said "things got messy"). We both sincerely apologised to Adam but he just started laughing saying something like "don't worry, I was younger once too, besides I knew you'd pay me and your mother back someday".
...
Yeah so turns out that when Fabian and Evan were away for college Mary and Adam had to get a new base board for their bed and had about two days worth of shagging done in Fabian's bed while they waited for a new board to be delivered and thought it best not to say anything (til now of course)
It's not where I thought this conversation/ update would go but I'm feeling a lot less guilty😅 Fabian is currently stripping his bedclothes though to wash them "just incase".
Now I also know Adam likes to joke around and you need to take things he says in jest with a pinch of salt so I doubt it actually happened and reckon he just said that to rile Fabian up/ diffuse the situation but either way we're in the clear😂
Also, big thank you for everyone who gave us advice, it really helped calm our nerves over it! 🥰
VoUHcW: Ugm. That thing real?? 🙄 I was kinda sure it only exists in adult movies 😂
Verniloth: Uh no that's pee. She peed on her bfs parents bed.
CrossXFir3: There's actually a lot of debate from doctors about this
Verniloth: K. It's pee. Bladder full before. Bladder empty after. I'm not shaming people for enjoying it. Do your thing! But a spade is a spade, and piss is piss.
CrossXFir3: Except no. Research varies on whether squirting is pee. Some properties of urine are found however there is also some of the components of semen rarely found in women's urine. There is no consensus among sexual heath professionals on what 'squirt' is.
Verniloth: We don't have to go and misquote studies and die on a hill you don't know a lot about. If the liquid passed through the bladder and then out of the body, it's pee. Maybe it's not pure pee.
Water with a squeeze of lemon in it... is still water...
Let's agree to disagree. You're not going to convince me that only some people have a mysterious sac of fluid in them that somehow squirts a liter of liquid out of them at high pressures. And I'm not going to convince you that the substance is not pee.
To be crystal clear. I'm not kink shaming. As long as both parties are into the experience, go nuts. I'm arguing over semantics. Because I can't help myself.
CrossXFir3: That's not how it works. I'm sorry - science disagrees. Just because your basic understanding says bladder = pee doesn't mean medical professionals agree with you.
Verniloth: Science does not disagree. You disagree. It's okay to disagree. It's not okay to make up shit and say it's science. Go awayyyyyyyyy. It's okay to like pee!
CrossXFir3: No you do. Go read up. It's clearly spelled out.
Verniloth: Delusional.

What state are you in?? You shouldn't just be reading about it. Any teaching/ed degree has TONS of practicum work, and in my state you need over two months of student teaching to get a cert.
Hour-Eleven: 2 months? What state are you in? I had a year of student teaching, plus several other months in and out of other classrooms for various classes.

Like the title says , I ruined a 2 year friendship (happened last night) between me and a friend. I met this guy online a couple years ago and we started playing call of duty together and became good friends. But yesterday this changed, all because I said something weird. We were playing monopoly plus on PlayStation together on a share play ( where I view his screen) and whilst doing this I was reading an article about some guy saying to a GTA Online griefer that he jerked off to him being griefed, so I decided to tell my friend this because I thought it was rather weird and amusing, fast forward 20 minutes, we stopped playing monopoly and I was going through the PlayStation store to buy a new game, and in those 20 minutes not much was said , and he randomly left the party. He then messaged me saying that the party was dead so he left. I replied with "the party is always dead, I have given up speaking because usually he just ignores me and don't reply" he then said what is he supposed to reply to when I say weird stuff or "ask the same questions every week like a bot" ( although I do ask the same question quite often, it's often because I forget I've asked it) he then said " why do you think no one wants to talk to you, would it be weird or boring if someone said something weird to you" to Which I replied " not really" because I find it interesting when someone says something weird or different. He then said " you know what, I can't do this anymore, good luck on your endeavours" then left every group chat we were both in and unfriended me on PlayStation.
TLDR: I said something "weird" and sometimes ask questions I've already asked, causing my friend to no longer wanna be friends.
roulettedares77: You’re better off…. Dude is a fu**ing square.
throwaway190206: Yeah, but he is the only person I play with, I don't like playing solo
MadeMeUp4U: Depending on the games you like there’s bound to be a Reddit or a discord group to join. My husband and my girlfriend both have found groups through discord that were welcoming and fun.
MauriseS: hold up! you have a husband AND girlfriend?
ScumlordStudio: I think they commented just to flex that lmfao

This happened yesterday. Not exactly a huge fuck up but certainly a weird one for me. I went in for orientation yesterday and they told me they have a work Discord server. I use Discord *very* frequently in my non professional life to talk with just about all of my friends, so I was pleasantly surprised to hear this. I joined their server, introduced myself, and my boss told me to set my server nickname to my real name. In the process of doing so, I noticed and reminded myself that in my status on Discord I had a pride flag, which is visible to everyone on every server I'm in, including all of my new coworkers. Admittedly it's not really a super big deal but there's well over a dozen people in here, 3 of whom I've met. I'm about to meet a bunch of people who know I'm gay before they even know what I look like. This should be interesting.
TLDR: Had a pride flag in my bio for a work app because I already used it prior, and now all of my coworkers, including the ones I haven't met yet, know I'm gay.
RoundLifeItIs: At 2022 its a non issue, good luck at your new job.
Neon_Camouflage: It generally is but I definitely understand wanting to keep it out of work. I do the same even though I'm 90% sure it wouldn't cause any problems, you just never know with some people.

TIFU going out with work
So obligatory this was not today but on Wednesday.
So I'm a software dev and I work remotely, but every few months I go down to the office in London for a bit of socials and face to face collaboration.
Wednesday I got down here and it was someone's leaving party. So I, who normally drinks 2 pints and then goes home had 3 or 4 shots of tequila, I don't know how many pints or cocktails and that's without eating anything except a bacon roll at 9am.
So, Thursday morning comes round and according yo uber I got in at 6 and had been picked up near a casino...
Panic, I go into my banking app and I'm immediately hit with a 'your credit card was automatically frozen due suspicious activity'
Oh god
I click OK and read on. My savings account which had £3k in it now reads £0.83. I also spent a good chunk of pay cheque which came in around 2 am.
I can still pay my mortgage and my utilities etc thank god and my credit card seems to have locked after £200 or so
I'll recover, but I feel like an absolute idiot and cannot believe I got black out drunk in my 30's. I'm currently waiting for my gf to call me so I can give her the news she's moving in with someone who apparently has the impulse control of a 3 year old in the sweetie jar
F's in chat
TL;DR I got black out drunk, went to a casino and spent all my savings
Garrison1999: Credit cards have fraud protection. Call your credit card company. Unless it was actually a debit card. Then you are fucked.
rokiller: Debit card because the credit was blocked. But also, it's not fraud I was just a drunken moron

1661536443 | 1661565044 | t3_wyfp0q | t5_2to41 | -33 | ral365: TIFU by writing a bad joke on someone else’s car
I’m a 31 y/o woman in the midwestern US. I’ve been going to outpatient therapy for ongoing mental health issues, including Asperger Syndrome or ADHD. This situation seems to greater involve the latter.
I’m walking down the parking lot, and noticed that someone had written a “Wash Me” message in a small layer of dirt, similar to if you wrote on snow or sand. In a spur-of-the-moment decision, I thought it’d be funny to respond since the car had just a thin layer of dirt on it. Underneath the first message, I wrote in that same layer of dirt “my wife is dirtier.”
A few minutes later, I noticed that there were 2 teenage girls sitting in that car. One of them asked “Excuse me, m’am, what did you just write on the car?” I told them, and initially played it off as just a joke. The car wasn’t the least bit damaged either. No scratches, or dents or anything; just rubbed my finger on the dirt. However, I instantly knew I’d screwed up, and just hurried to group therapy since I was running late.
Another few minutes later, I overheard the girls’ mom telling the lady at the front desk (named Stephanie) about what I did. “That’s what she wrote. It was so rude.” I apologized multiple times, and emphasized how I didn’t leave any damage. She told me that it was still vandalism & destruction of property, and rubbing your finger on it is still damage. I asked if she was gonna call the police, and said no, and thought that was the end of it. My therapist then noticed I was late for my session, and lead me to the room for group.
I spent the next hour or so worrying that this situation wasn’t over yet; that it could still be escalated since I did technically vandalize her car, and her kids saw which car was mine. She could easily change her mind, and identify me to the police. She definitely came off as someone who’d call 911 easily. Unfortunately, I was right.
Later this morning, my group therapist took me aside, and told me the mom DID call the police on me. I instantly panicked at the idea of being arrested and going to jail for the first time ever. However, Stephanie had intervened, and convinced her to change her mind. It not only wasn’t worth it, but that kind of spontaneous, impulsive behavior is why I’m in outpatient treatment in the first place. I was diagnosed with ADHD a couple years ago, and I’m still learning a lot about how it affects my behavior, including acting on impulse and swings in mood and focus.
I’m still a bit anxious about the whole thing, but I owe Stephanie big time for preventing my f-up from becoming much more serious. I will never do anything like this again!
TL;DR: I wrote on the dirt of a stranger’s car thinking it’d be funny. The owner found out, and was ready to press charges on me, but a nice lady talked her out of it.
CatJudgement: You're 31? Not 13? You started off by making excuse after excuse for what you did. Then you thought, hey, maybe the owner of the car is mean for calling the cops. You're right. You f-ed up, big time.
SadArm4678: They are going to down vote you to oblivion but you are right. A grown ass adult should be able to make better choices. Especially since they specifically state this would be the first time, in 31 years of their life, they got in trouble. Which means they've controlled themselves just fine with other people's property thus far.
ral365: Learning to make better choices is why I’m in therapy.
SadArm4678: You have managed to not mess with people's stuff for your entire life. Getting a diagnosis doesn't give you license to do all the things you've wanted to do but didn't under the guise of not being able to suddenly control yourself. I find it highly unlikely that's the first car you've walked past that said Wash Me on it in your life.
BurningPenguin: Yeah, because that's totally how adhd works, being consistent and predictable and all that /s
SadArm4678: Had she been in repeated trouble, for the inability to control herself through the entirety of her life, it would be an entirely different story. But she hasn't been. Therefore she has been able to control these impulses for the entirety of her life. Someone gets in repeated trouble for stealing, goes to therapy to find the root cause, backslides and steals again would get a keep working with your therapist. Because it was a pattern of behavior. One incident is a bad decision. And instead of realizing that tries to pawn it off on their ADHD when their ADHD didn't cause them to once, before this, write a message of any kind on someone's dirty car.
BurningPenguin: >It not only wasn’t worth it, but that kind of spontaneous, impulsive behavior is why I’m in outpatient treatment in the first place.
SadArm4678: >instantly panicked at the idea of being arrested and going to jail for the first time ever.
Look, I can quote too
BurningPenguin: Reading comprehension seems to be lacking, though.
SadArm4678: No, your inability to understand that spontaneous and impulsive doesn't mean destructive or even illegal is an issue. They have controlled their ability to not touch things that don't belong to them for their entire life. They have controlled their ability to not get into trouble with the police for their entire life. They have walked past multiple dirty cars, that say wash me, in their life without touching them. You can't possibly know that. Yes, yes I can. They are all the fuck over. So, it'd be ok if they keyed the car because ADHD. Or tossed a rock through a window? Or kicked a pet? Or even forgot to feed their goldfish? Going to theraoy doesn't negate the choices someone made. A diagnosis doesmt excuse behavior you've never done before.
SethMalcolm1: holy shit your so stupid lmao

[deleted]
schroobster: What do you think your FU is? I get the sense you think it's that you expressed your insecurity in an unhealthy way. I don't think you see your FU as you've been dating a guy long distance since you were fifteen who plays into your insecurities and expects you to do all the work to fix them as the solution. It's clear you know you need to work through your own emotional mess; it's not clear why you think you should be dating this guy who goes to his "friends" to complain about you instead of fixing the problem he perceives he has. If he keeps dogging you to his friends, if everyone thinks he should drop you, then why hasn't he?
Value yourself a little more. End this drama and work on yourself, and eventually find someone who isn't playing all these (relationship) games (no pun intended).
Sad_Peak_2819: My FU is like you said expressing my feelings in an unhealthy way. I’ve tried expressing them normally but he gets angry when I mention I’m feeling down because “I’m always down” or “he’s tired of me always complaining about the same thing.” All i wanted was communication but he thinks it’s easier to vent about me to people who have no clue who I am. It’s upsetting because of course they’re gonna dislike me, all he’s done is tell them all of my FUps. I’ve been with him so long and I have a big attachment to him but lately all I do Is cry over him treating me like an option and I excuse it with the fact that he’s probably tired of dealing with me. I don’t know why he hasn’t dropped me. He says it’s because he loves me and wants a future with me but lately he doesn’t even see a future. I’m too attached to end it and I think if he ends it again it’ll break me even more
FemaleDogEqualsBitch: I recommend breaking up with him and learning to work through your emotions in a more healthy way. He’s an asshole.
muradinner: I agree on ending it. It's the right choice, clearly they are not right for each other and this is a relationship of just staying with each other because that is what they know. I doubt he's an asshole based on a Reddit post though. People on this site jump to this type of conclusion too easily.
They just aren't right for each other.
FemaleDogEqualsBitch: You’re right, maybe he isn’t an asshole. We haven’t heard from his perspective.
Sad_Peak_2819: He isn’t. Well at least that’s what I’d like to think. He was living with me last month before he went back home and he was the sweetest most understanding person and I absolutely adored him, but after meeting this girl and her friends he’s gotten so different
FemaleDogEqualsBitch: Alright, if you say so.

1661537190 | 1661548002 | t3_wyg045 | t5_2to41 | 2 | m0dru: TIFU because I bought a TV
So I saw a deal on the lg 65 c2 oled. I've been looking for a tv for a while. My 6 series TCL has some issues. The order was with Woot so I used Amazon Pay tied to my prime account for free shipping. It got kicked back as fraud for being an unusually large amount. I confirm with the bank and Woot tells me I need to reorder. So I do. It goes through just fine.
I get a call about 15 minutes later from my grandma saying she just cancelled her credit card because of fraud. Inquiring because I do have her card saved as I order stuff for her from time to time on my prime account. I ask the exact amount of the fraudulent transaction. Well what do ya know? The exact amount I just placed an order for this tv. Did I use the wrong card? I go and look at my order details. Nope it was my Visa (her's is a Mastercard).
There is no trace of her card ever being charged. Nothing nada. I can see the failed order with my Visa and the second successful one. I'd assume that Amazon tried to use a backup payment method, but the thing is....my default card (Amazon prime sub) is entirely different from the Visa I used for the order. If it failed to a backup it should have been that card.
Realizing what happened my grandma called and explained to try to stop the cancelation of her card, but they said once it was submitted it couldn't be stopped. So now she has to setup billing again on her new card when she gets it. She uses it for online orders like prescriptions that she gets monthly. My bad grandma.
There is no history of the attempted backup charge. Both the failed and successful order only show my Visa. The transaction history for all payments only shows the successful transaction for my second order attempt.
LPT turn off that back up payment bullshit.
TLDR: I bought a tv and got my grandma's credit card canceled.
Tyrrax: sounds like Amazon fucked up not you
AcrobaticSource3: Yeah but Jeff Bezos won’t be posting here

[deleted]
gerbageman: In his defense, some doctors leave more than others.
algo-rhyth-mo: 100% this. Growing up never really understood the difference between circumcised and not, *because it turns out, I’m like **barely** circumcised*. It wasn’t until adulthood that my dad told me that the doctor cut off like way less for me.
I *am* circumcised but as long as I’m not fully erect, there’s enough foreskin to cover my tip. Especially coming out of the shower, my guy hides in his cloak.
how_do_i_read: >I’m like barely circumcised.
Your parents told them "Just a little off the top"?
Khudaal: “Yo, give it a fade”
hideobalm: Hugely under rated.
Fr tho I want to know wether this is like. The best way to go? Cos some ppl have huge hoods that hygienically (and aesthetically ngl) coudl benefit from a bit off.. but idk if you can really predict that from that young.. idk seems like the best of both?
LewixAri: Cosmetic dick surgery is something for a man in his 20s to decide, you can definitely do this if you want to. But forcing an unconsenting child to be mutilated is psychotic
happy-Accident82: Except it's going to be way more painful when your 20, and kids getting UTIs from being uncircumcised is not uncommon. Then they have to have it done anyway.
phatdoobieENT: Have fun telling that to a pubescent teen who just heard how his tip wont ever be able to feel a tenth of what it should during sex because his parents thought the nerve endings in his tip weren't worth having to clean their child.
happy-Accident82: I'm circumcised. Don't ever remember the procedure. Still have feeling, and never had a UTI or phimosis. My parents didn't have to clean me my junk after I was a baby. 10 out of 10 my girlfriend would recommend.
phatdoobieENT: You still have feeling yes like I can still feel through a callus. I'm happy that you, your parents and your gf appreciate not having to clean you.
And now I'm even more thankful that my parents were responsable for my hygene and left me the choice once I was aware of its function after I begged them to chop it off as a child due to peer pressure.
happy-Accident82: No shame from me mate. It's just in the best interests of the child to have it done for hygienic purposes. The medical community agrees.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3684945/
phatdoobieENT: Vaccinating children is in their best interest. Would you chop their ears to prevent ear infections? The foreskin is a functional body part. Doctors don't preventatively remove appendices how does it make sense to preventatively remove something of such importance to prevent something as banal as a uti or phimosis?
happy-Accident82: Obviously you didn't bread the article. It explains everything bin the article. Here it is again so you can educate yourself.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3684945/
phatdoobieENT: Oh no you think I didn't read it the first time you posted it? Shame it doesn't apply to people with access to condoms or modern medicine and again it's only real arguments are sti prevention and freedom of religion (which doesn't cover mutilating non consenting persons, anyways!)
happy-Accident82: Yeah you definitely didn't read it.
phatdoobieENT: Please enlighten me is there some crucial part of that I skimmed over that could make me want to go get a circumcision?
Because tbh I don't mind cleaning myself or wearing condoms with new partners but I hate it when my foreskin gets pulled back by accident and my head rubs against underwear or even my leg hairs. Feels like sand paper on a sunburn.
happy-Accident82: Besides preventing STI and transmission to someone else.
Neonatal male circumcision provides other potential benefits during childhood such as prevention of infant urinary tract infections, meatitis, balanitis, and phimosis,8 as well as protection from viral STIs. Approximately 50% of high school students report having sex prior to 18 years of age, so delaying male circumcision to age 18 years or older would deny children and adolescents these potential benefits. Neonatal male circumcision is a simple procedure and the complication rate is only between 0.2% and 0.6%8; the vast majority of complications are minor and easily treated. The complication rate of neonatal male circumcision is substantially lower than the complication rates of adult male circumcision (1.5%-3.8% during the trials), so delaying the procedure would only add to surgical risk.
Some who oppose male circumcision cite anecdotal reports that male circumcision can cause sexual dysfunction. The male circumcision trials evaluated sexual satisfaction in adult men and their female partners before and after the procedure and compared men randomized to male circumcision with uncircumcised controls. There were no significant differences in male sexual satisfaction or dysfunction among trial participants, and in one trial, circumcised men reported increased penile sensitivity and enhanced ease of reaching orgasm.9 In addition, 97% of female partners reported either no change or improved sexual satisfaction after their male partner was circumcised.10
The evidence for the long-term public health benefits of male circumcision has increased substantially during the past 5 years. If a vaccine were available that reduced HIV risk by 60%, genital herpes risk by 30%, and HR-HPV risk by 35%, the medical community would rally behind the immunization and it would be promoted as a game-changing public health intervention. Based on the medical evidence, banning infant male circumcision would deprive parents of the right to act on behalf of their children’s health. Parents should be provided with information derived from evidence-based medicine about the risks and benefits of male circumcision so that they can make an informed choice for their children. It would be ethically questionable to deprive them of this choice. Medicaid and other insurance carriers should cover male circumcision costs if parents opt for the procedure, and the medical community, including the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, should recognize the health benefits of male circumcision in order to properly inform parents and physicians.
phatdoobieENT: Nice copy paste. So no you can't find anything in your biased article that shows any medical benefit of circumcision for responsable, educated people with access to healthcare.
The only benefit are those 97% females with either no change or improved satisfaction. Wow. Such science.
Or the men who climax quicker right after the operation while they still have sensation and max tightness. Big surprise.
happy-Accident82: It's from the national institute of health and John's Hopkins University about the benefits of circumcisions. If you want to believe in conspiracy theories that's on you. The evidence speaks for itself. Circumcisions benefits outweigh any risk and they shit on your mutilation talking point.
phatdoobieENT: Thanks that's the first thing I checked after the title.
What exactly do you think conspiracy theory means? Because it sounds like you just like throwing it around.
Again, like they say in your article, the "evidence" does not represent life with access to healthcare.
Go and defend the clit choppers then you garbage human
happy-Accident82: Your a antivaxer! Despite overwhelming evidence that circumcisions are beneficial you believe in your own made up evidence. That's a conspiracy theorie. Your a conspiracy theorist!
phatdoobieENT: That's proof you only skim read. No wonder the nuances of the article you posted seem to have flown right over your head. Let me copy paste my comment from before to show you:
Vaccinating children is in their best interest. Would you chop their ears to prevent ear infections? The foreskin is a functional body part. Doctors don't preventatively remove appendices how does it make sense to preventatively remove something of such importance to prevent something as banal as a uti or phimosis?
To be clear medical benefits outweigh medical risk (minor potential benefit vs insignificant risk) =/= medical benefits outweigh reason and compassion.
What made up evidence have I presented? Are you okay? I'm worried.
happy-Accident82: What is preventative medicine? Vaccinations, circumcisions, etc. There is no benefit to cutting off your ears. There is a benefit to cutting off foreskin for the child. You refuse to believe in facts. That makes you a conspiracy theorist, likened to a antivaxer.

1661543109 | 1661625401 | t3_wyid9t | t5_2to41 | 327 | omarthefarkha: TIFU by asking my roommate to grab her tits
I (22m) have had a crush on my roommate (21f) for a while now. We have been both going to the gym recently and he have both got our bodies lean and fit. Today she cam home from the gym looking extra fine so i complimented her by saying that she lost some significant weight to which she got so excited and happy and all hyped up that i noticed and gave me a tight hug for it.
Then i told her that i noticed that she also got pretty thick on the thighs and ass too and she also replied with a huge smile and playfully started to twerk and in response and gave her some light spanking and she laughed about it and took it playfully.
I was feeling something was about to happen at this point so i told her that she got me excited and she said "i can see that with a naughty smile and then she pressed her ass against my dick and kept twerking. So i told her that she has some nice tits too and asked if i could play with them. All of the sudden her demeanor totally changed and she got all aggressive saying things like what the fuck is wrong with me and how that hell did i even think of asking something like that. I got confused but apologised nonetheless and told her that i thought she liked what we were doing. She said that she was just goofing around like she does with her girlfriends and that she only sees me as a roommate.
Since then, we have not spoken and i just try avoiding her in order to not get into any awkward conversations. She is a great friend and roommate and i don't want to lose her but i don't really know what to do or say at this point.
TL;dr: My roommate whom i have a crush on came back from that gym looking nice so, i complimented her ass, she grinded on me, then i asked her if i could play with her tits. She got mad and aggressive and now we aren't talking anymore.
TuckerCarlsonsOhface: > i told her that she has some nice tits too and asked if i could play with them.
Dude. Even if she was interested this would have shut it down. You don’t go from flirting to “let me manhandle your fun-bags”.
KatiePotatie1986: I'm a woman. I agree this is a bit awkward, but asking for consent to escalate can almost always be awkward. "Can I kiss you?" can kind of ruin a moment, but I would 100% rather be asked than just have a dude kiss me if I'm not feeling it. (Obvs this can be different if there's already consent established, but it differs from couple to couple and in different situations)
I'm sure (okay im hoping) that he asked more gracefully than just "let me man-handle your fun bags," so that's way better than just doing it.
TuckerCarlsonsOhface: Good point. I guess I’m assuming one would continue to estimate level of reciprocation before asking, and even then I would assume kissing would be at least one step before “can I squeeze your sweet boobs”.
TheTalkativeMouse: I mean kissing would have been one step before twerking on his dick right?
TRillThePRoducer: No because his dick wasn’t out. your saying twerking on his dick like his actual dick was out lmao I’m sure it was in his pants. If you go to club girls dance on dudes all the time that doesn’t mean they wanna fuck every dude they are just having fun and enjoying the vibe
TheTalkativeMouse: Yer, but they weren't at a club?
TheTalkativeMouse: Asking what he asked is weird yes but they were at their own apartment, and she started up the very weird situation and he asked, how is he worse off here for asking than someone who did something sexual, and acknowledged it with a comment? I'm seriously confused how he is in the wrong for asking first than a woman rubbing herself against him and noticing about his "excitement" and carrying on?

Second question, assuming she’s using the kind that has an applicator there’s no way you’d be able to fit that back inside of one with the pins. The way you described this the pins would be sticking out so she would’ve known not to use that one. Why would you play with her tampons and not something else with pins?

elizabethjanet: Good for you, do not back down. And remember, make sure you tell them the monetary value as well as the sentimental value. The monetary value will carry more weight in the legal sense. The courts don’t really care how you feel but if you claim that you are out money, it’s considered theft and carries a hefty price tag.
do0tz: It's also not about how much you spent, but how much *they are worth*
JumpyLolly: Yep its like saying I bought a mickey mantle card for a nickel in the 60s but its worth 1 million now and Cole trashes it and I'm only owed 5 cents
Lincky12435: I sold insurance for a few months. I quit because it was the absolute worst job I had ever had and I’ve worked as laborer before (not bad but hard as fuck). The one thing I never understood was how an insurance company decides something is worth market value vs. replacement cost. It just didn’t make any fucking sense. All the schleps I talked to would never ask about it and having gained the knowledge of what the difference is I feel like a god. Always, always ask about this.
Your insurer tells you you’re fully covered. Covered for what? Covered for how much? If I or someone else totals my car what are you doing for me?
Some people would come and agree to pay a few thousand dollars a month to insure two cars (bad record) but if they totaled their car they are absolutely fucked. Bent over a barrel and fucked.
Insurance is a great idea, but it’s such a seedy shitty area of society.
Edit: btw if your car isn’t worth more than a few thousand dollars, only pay for liability!!!
slash_networkboy: >Edit: btw if your car isn’t worth more than a few thousand dollars, only pay for liability!!!
this is OT from the main thread but... even if it's only worth a few thousand, if you're making payments on it you still have to fully insure it in most states AFAIK. I'm in that boat with my little Leaf. I'd "self insure" for the comp and collision if I could but there's still a couple grand left on the note to pay off :/
oxencotten: Wait there’s states that make you have full coverage insurance? Why would that be a thing? I don’t see why they would care beyond you having liability.
slash_networkboy: To protect the lender.
oxencotten: Sorry yeah I missed the “if you’re still making payments” part.

luca-fox: A baby that is being birthed is an unborn fetus?
chmath80: Nobody said it was being birthed. There are a number of situations which can arise, even early in gestation (such as ectopic pregnancy), where the mere *existence* of the foetus will kill the mother.

1661549118 | 1661550963 | t3_wykpgf | t5_2to41 | 11 | Avookadov1: TIFU by agreeing to my girlfriend
(18M) was always a pleaser. I always want everyone around me to be happy and this isn't different about my girlfriend (17F). I always want her to be happy even if it means not being happy or doing things I don't want to do. Yesterday she spoke to her friend about his girlfriend wanting to open the relationship. She wanted his consent in the matter and when he spoke to my girlfriend about it she said "well my boyfriend will never agree to such a thing. Then she put me in a test. She said she wanted me to experience with other women. We are already thinking about being together forever (I know I'm two young but she's so amazing and caring and I love everything about her. I never want this to end.) So when she presented this idea to me I was shocked and at first kept saying no. Because I want to be with her and only her. But she kept pushing me and my pleaser side thought that was what she wanted. So eventually I said yes and opened a tinder account. Even though I never had any intention of even talking to any girl in there.
Even through the process of opening the account I repeatedly asked her if she really wants it and she kept saying yes. And after a few hours of swiping (while being with her on a vc, I wanted her to be a part of this) she told me the truth and that she never imagined I'd say yes. She said I hurt her and I'm now a totally different person to her. She still loves me and still wants to be with me because I explained I only did this for her and never had any intention of doing this sort of thing, but I'm afraid things will never be the same again.
Right now I'm working on myself trying to be a mentally stronger man to be able to actually be there for her and also learning to stand up for myself and being able to say "no" even if it does not make her happy. It was the biggest mistake of my life and I just want things to get back to normal.
TL;DR she told me everything is ok and she got over it. I still am struggling with the fact that I did it, but maybe everything will actually be ok. After all I have a feeling this is the love of my life
Brandeeno2245: Both of you are young, but she pressured you into agreeing to something you didn't want to do and got upset.
This is her fuck up not yours and really she needs to grow up and stop testing your loyalty for no actual reason.
Avookadov1: With all honesty, yes. I agree with you. But this is the first time she had done any of this and later apologized a few times. I must say she's an amazing person and one thing like this shouldn't destroy the relationship
Brandeeno2245: As long as you both learn from this, she needs to learn to trust her partner when she know you've done nothing.
You need to learn to shut this shit down in a respectful way. If she pulls this type of thing again instead of just saying no, actually explain how it's making you uncomfortable and how you don't want this and it hurts you when she's pressuring you into something you don't want.
