Today, I saw an elderly man fall in a crosswalk, so I jumped off my bike to help. As I helped him across, the light turned green. I then watched across a 6 lane street as someone stole my bike. FML

Altruism is selfless concern for the welfare of others. Take comfort in the fact that the reward for your deed is internal. Externally your phone and your bike were only material objects which can be replaced.

You Have A Good Heart.. I Would've Laughed, Pulled Out My Phone, And Tweeted About It ... I'm A Terrible Person lol

And this is why kindness is so rare these days. You usually end up getting ****** in the process. So sorry OP. :/

No good deed gos unpunished I believe the saying is.

That's got to suck, but at least you did a good thing

Look at the bright side.. You got a top FML out of it :D

Wow that really sucks! But good for you for helping the old man!

i wish i knew who you were to send you some money to cover your loss. best of luck and don't ever pass an opportunity to help someone again.

At least you lost it doing something good!
