Today, I was riding the bus home from school. I was sitting by myself, and my backpack was occupying the seat next to me. A hot girl boarded the bus, and was standing right where I was sitting. I placed my backpack on my lap, freeing up the seat. The girl stood the entire bus ride. FML

Today, I was riding the bus home from college. I was standing in the aisle and there was a rather cute girl sitting next to me. The bus came to an abrupt stop, I tripped, and fell into her lap. She shrieked, "Eww! Get off me!" and shove me onto the floor of the bus. Nice to know I'm revolting. FML

Today, a pretty girl joined the line at the bus station. I let her skip the line and go before me so I could sit next to her. After she bought her ticket, I realized there were no more seats left on that bus. I was told to get off, and had to take the next bus, sitting next to a snoring old man. FML

Today, a girl started talking to me at the bus stop. After it descended into an awkward silence, I jumped on my bus to avoid further conversation. She got on the same bus. And got off at the same stop. I swear the whole bus could feel the tension. FML

Today, while on the bus, I found out the seat I'd taken was the preferred spot of a very hostile and extremely overweight freshman. Instead of letting me find different place to sit, she half sat on me, and completely ignored my attempts to dislodge myself all the way to school. FML

Today, a lady on the bus came up to me and asked if she could sit down. Thinking she meant the seat next to me, I said sure. She meant my lap. FML

Stuck

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - Australia

Today, I was on train when an attractive girl got on. There were no free seats and seeing as how my stop was next, I gave her mine. As soon as I did, the train came to an immediate halt, due to "brake problems". I spent the next 40 minutes standing up. FML

Today, I was traveling by bus. There were no spare seats, so I stood next to a seated lady. When she got off at her stop, I was amused because her bum made the shape of a mushroom on the seat. I went to sit on it. So I'm sitting there when I realise the seat is really warm... and wet. FML

Today, while on the bus, I had to stand as all the seats were taken. I was standing behind a group of small girls who were messing around with their bags. As they were swinging them, one hit me square in the nuts with her elbow. The girl said, “Wise up, I hardly touched you.” I missed my stop. FML

Today, my friend and I offered a hot girl a lift home from campus. I was sitting in the passenger seat and she climbed in behind me. As I adjusted my seat forward to give her more leg room, my friend pulled off - slamming my seat back into her legs. FML

Today, I was sitting on the bus to the gym. I saw that an old woman needed help to get off the bus, so I got up, and helped her off. When I had finally got her down the stairs the bus closed the doors and drove away. I was in the middle of nowhere and the bus drove away with all my things. FML

If nobody has realized from reading all these FMLs yet, Its the really stuck up popular girls that do this kinda stuff. Spending the rest of your life with her or a part of it would be a bitch.

You know, sometimes people prefer to stand depending on their mood, this isn't FML worthy.

Seriously, I grew up in New York and now I live in Boston. I've been taking the subway my whole life. I won't get up if a stranger sits next to be on the subway, but generally I don't like to squeeze in between everyone. I'll stand if there aren't enough free seats. Also- just watch the people around you. Women are more likely to sit next to other women. There's always the risk of sitting next to a freak. Or- crazy thought- as you remove the bag, say "Oh, I'm sorry. Would you like to sit?". I'm so sick of FMLs where someone tries a stupid roundabout way to get the attentions of someone only to be rejected, when the truth is the object of their affections probably had no idea.

Not an FML, some people just refer to stand.

#1 and #4, you are typical guys, getting all bent out of shape over potential rejection when its not necessarily that serious. That is not necessarily true. It's scary to sit next to a random guy who suddenly "seems" nice; you don't really know what to expect.

Agree with #7, though maybe you should slit your wrists anyway if this bother's you that much.

Not an FML! You don't know why she chose to stand. She was probably oblivious, just prefers to stand, or was really shy and thought sitting next to you would be awkward. Or maybe you're just really unattractive.

i dont think it was you she wouldnt sit next too but it is your fault for not speaking up. you have to be ok with saying "what's up you want this seat." you didnt know her before you got on the b so if she said no and turned you down you wouldn't know here after the bus. so no big loss really. think of all the money you saved not meeting her!!!
