Rookie mistake

By no selfie for me - This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff - United States - Pasadena

Today, I was at the park unsuccessfully trying to take a selfie. A stranger walked up to me and offered to take the picture for me. I agreed and gave him my phone. He took it and ran off. FML

And that's why you can't trust everyone you meet.

I don't trust anyone with my phone...let alone, a complete stranger. What were you thinking?

I had something similar happen. Bet it was an iPhone.

no where in this fml does it say whether or not the phone was an iPhone or not !!

YDI for referring to the picture as a "selfie".

Doesn't that sound more like a sexual thing? Makes loneliness not seem so bad, though. Haha. "Oh, you guys went to the bar last night? I got a selfie... probably the best night i've had in a while."

You couldn't settle for a new myspace picture in your backyard or something, you just had to go to the park, alone, to take your selfie?

Yep, I totally thought a selfie was something totally different...

If someone comes to you offering to take your picture, so no. Usually, you go to people asking to take a picture of you

I'm in a park! quick, quick! Everyone will want to see that! Nobody cares. Maybe if you weren't so vain you'd have an actual friend to take that picture!
