Today, I sat in bumper-to-bumper traffic for half an hour. The entire time, a man I had gone on a date with and that had gotten very out of hand with, was sitting in the car next to me. I noticed, panicked, and tried to drive off, rear-ending the car in front of me. FML

Today, while driving on the highway, I got stuck in a traffic jam. Upon glancing over at the car in the next lane, I saw it was my ex as of a week ago. We sat in barely moving traffic right next to each other for half an hour. FML

Today, I was driving home from work and noticed the car behind me was tailgating me pretty badly. I was starting to get angry with the driver, and kept glancing in my rear view mirror at him. While I was doing so, the traffic ahead of me stopped, and I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML

Today, I rear-ended a car on the parkway. We pulled over, the guy told me his car was fine, and then asked me out on a date. It was only when I said no that he decided he wanted his car fixed. FML

Today, I was driving around a parking lot, looking for an empty spot. Someone was backing out a bit too quickly as I was about to pass by, so I honked to announce myself. The driver instead panicked and reversed into my front bumper. FML

Today, I was on a date with a guy I really like. Everything went well, and then he wanted to kiss me. As he leaned towards me, I got slightly panicky and ducked out of the way, causing him to headbutt the car behind me. Now we know why I'm still a virgin. FML

Today, I was in a car accident. After screaming at the woman for running into me, I got in my car and drove off. As I was driving away, I was staring her down when I ended up rear-ending the person in front of me. FML

Today, I was driving in stop and go traffic and passed two accidents in the process. I got nervous and decided to change routes to avoid getting hit. As I was trying to find an alternative route on my GPS, I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML

Today, I went on a date. We met in the parking lot of a restaurant. As I approached his car he took one look at me, said "Nope", and drove off. FML

Today, I saw a bad car wreck. I pulled over and ran to the car to find an unconscious man behind the wheel. Another car pulled up, and a guy got out. I was relieved to have help, until, to my horror, he started trying to hit on me. I was stuck with him until the ambulance arrived. FML

hm. i'd be more worried about the person's car you just trashed, not the one-time-shitty-date.

The entire time, a man I had gone on a date with and that had gotten very out of hand with, was sitting in the car next to me. This sentence doesn't make sense. "and that had gotten very out of hand with"? Is "that" the man? Or, as the syntax suggests, is it the date, that sucked so much that it got out of hand (and what would that mean?) And perhaps the strangest thing is that "with" has no object. Out of hand with what? Is the man supposed to be the object and she's the one who got out of hand? This is very silly. Do better FML mods. Do better.

It makes sense if you can read in English. Not everyone's going to make out a story perfectly. Don't nitpick because they're imperfect. Be frustrated because you can't interpret anything that's not spoon fed to you clearly. Essentially, she was in traffic and the guy she was with was touching her inappropriately, and she freaked out. In the process of spazzing, she hit the gas pedal and hit the car in front of her. Next time, OP, break his fingers. He won't bother you again. Though the hospital bill might be about the same as the rear-ended car. But he could have insurance. You never know.

Actually the guy was not in the the car with her because she said she NOTICED him so if he was in the car with her I would think she would NOTICE before half an hour. Anyway YDI for freaking out for really no reason and hitting someone

I disagree, vetter. You're saying your interpretation of this FML is obvious, but it makes no sense. If OP was sitting in traffic with a guy who was touching her inappropriately, why would it take her half an hour to notice him? I think the date was a while ago, they were in different cars, and she just didn't want to see him ever again. Meh, it happens. Next time, just don't glance over anymore.

@vetter, nay, the story is so badly written that even you got it wrong, I agree with letitbe, make some more sense...

Vetter, you're wrong and you're a d***. Just about everything you said is one big fail. Anywho, I agree; the wording of this FML is pretty terrible...

YDI for thinking you could speed away in this kind of traffic. You were there for at least 30 minutes, there's no excuse for your stupidity.

If I were moderating this, I would have accepted it so I could read all the comments. To the OP: If you're going to act like that, you'll be easy prey. Start being aware of your surroundings. Empower yourself. Do something nice for the person you hurt when you rear-ended their car. You've caused that person a year of physical misery.

This is why you don't carpool with people who were inappropriate on a date. Yes, I know what she meant that he was in the car next to her but she does make it sound like he is in the same car as her.
