Today, I got into a very intense fight with my roommate about rent payment. She got so angry that she snatched my purse, walked out into the hallway and threw it down the garbage chute. Along with my money, my driver's licence, my credit cards, and my monthly paycheck was in that purse. FML

Today, I lost my keys. My roommate locked me out, then yelled at me when I made her come home to let me in. I tore my room apart searching for them, and even went out to search my locker room. When I got home, I glanced at my wall only to find my keys hanging on the hook I set up specifically for them. FML

Get out

Today, my mother kicked me out of the house because her new boyfriend needs my room. Evidently he also needs my credit card, passport, and wallet too, because she kept all three, while tossing everything else out on the lawn. FML

Today, I ate dinner sitting on the floor. My petty roommate got pissed off during the weekend and decided the appropriate action would be to lock all the furniture in her room and refuse to give it back. FML

Today, my roommate wants to kick me out because I can't afford to pay my share of the rent this month. I couldn't afford to, because I had to pay for repairs to my car after my roommate got drunk, stole my keys, and crashed it into a street light. FML

Today, my roommate came home and instantly began raging, cursing, and threatening to kill me. While I was cowering in my bedroom, the police had to settle the situation. All I'd done was rearrange some furniture. FML

Today, my roommate decided to splash out on a prostitute. When my expensive watch and the contents of my wallet turned up missing in the aftermath, his only comment was, "Shit happens, bro." FML

Today, my ex-roommate, who decided to move out when my other roommate and I told her we didn't want a giant dresser for her dogs' clothes and stuff in the dining room, took the door knob out of the door to her former bedroom and threw some of my things in the recycling bin. FML

Today, I had an argument with my partner, which resulted in us breaking up and me leaving. I drove for half an hour before I realised I had left my handbag, purse and licence at his place. I had to go ask for it back. FML

Today, my boyfriend moved out and took all his things with him. He also took some things that didn't belong to him, namely my rent money. My landlord comes tomorrow. FML

Omg...what a psycho. (The only way I can think that you deserved this is if you have been the asshole, but I'm assuming this is not the case here).

Your wording kind of implies that you haven't paid your share of the rent and makes me wonder if it's an ongoing problem. People who do not pay their rent in full and on time eventually get evicted so I'm thinking YDI

It honestly could be either. Either OP isn't paying rent, or the roommate. Can't tell if it's an FML or a YDI until further clarification lol

Read the OP's nickname. I think that pretty much confirms she was the one who wasn't paying.

No, the name is referring to that her purse was just thrown away so NOW OP can't pay. It's unclear who didn't wanna pay before, but now OP can't pay since she paycheck is gone.

No... no it doesn't. Regardless who was paying the rent, the roommate definitely will be "paying all of it now", because OP's purse is down the garage chute. So that tells us nothing. In fact if anything, it makes more sense that the roommate WASN'T paying it, because you wouldn't to say that she'll be "paying it *now*" if she had in fact been paying all along anyway.
