My ex boyfriend had the same issue, but with his smartphones. While I was dating him, he finally decided to invest in a smartphone, which cost him $400. Two weeks later we decide to go to a mall about an hour out of town. We sit down on a bench mid-way through our shopping and since he put his phone in his back pocket, he'd pull it out and set it aside to sit down so he wouldn't crush it. Well, here's the problem. He forgot to pick it back up and put it in his pocket when we got up to leave. The same thing happened a month later. He was on a bus heading to school that time around. After the first incident, he said he'd get a clip for his phone, but never did, as he later stated that clips were 'ugly'. Hope he learned his lesson the second time around.

A girl. It's always a girl.

Op here again! No idea how to use fml so I'm going to reply to myself Went into the bank to cancel my credit card and they told me someone handed in my wallet to the police station a couple hours away!! **** yessss!!!

luckiest man on earth

Hi OP! I'm still a little confused here. Do you just hold onto your wallet for the whole 2 hours? Why does texting a girl affect anything? normally people don't have to keep tabs on their wallets, what with them being in your pocket and all that... Maybe community college is more your speed

a.) nothing wrong with community colleges, get over yourself asshole. b.) it can be very easy to lose track of things especially if it falls out of your pocket or something, as well as the fact that things you carry all the time are easy to lose because you just get used to them being there. c.) Texting girls can affect literally everything... it'll distract you and keep your mind from focusing. d.) What OP does and how he handles it are his decisions, if he did indeed decide to carry it then so be it, sometimes wallets can be uncomfortable as hell in your pocket, especially your back pocket when you're sitting.

I have a HORRIBLE habit of just walking away from my things. For the last decade or so it's become second nature to look back at wherever I left to make sure I have everything, even if I know damn well I left the house with nothing but the object currently in my hand. It doesn't hurt to check when there's no reason, but it hurts LOADS when you don't check and there is reason. I've probably left at least $100 of freshly purchased items at bus stops. One time I even left my bus pass on the bus.

Nice! Lmao. Buy a lottery ticket

You are the target audience for the wallet chain.. Unfortunately, the 90s kid gangsters got there first and thought it looked cooler to chain one belt loop to another.

Haha is this a connection to another FML

Haha yes, I was hoping there was someone who would get it :D

you tried too hard

your profile picture says all.

Except for nearly every day that year op didn't lose their wallet, so if we're going by that ill-fitting quote then op did get different results from doing the same thing.
