Today, I went to a conference for work. When I got there I sat beside a woman about my age. She immediately got up and moved to the opposite side of the room. We were the only two there. FML

Today, in an effort to avoid having the same break as my annoying coworker, I went a little earlier than I usually do. Guess who got moved to a position with an early break? She sat next to me. FML

Today, I was hitting on a girl who was getting ready to walk into the same class as me. We were waiting outside the room, so I told her that I'd heard the professor for the course was a total bitch. We walked into the room. I sat down at a desk. She stood behind the podium. FML

Today, as I caught the train home, a woman got on and sat on the only available seat next to me. We got talking and as the train approached the next station, she said that this was her stop and she had to go. She exited the train and I turn to see her enter the compartment behind me. FML

Today, after moving house, changing my number, my email, and beginning legal action to get away from a girl who was stalking me, I decided to go to the movies to relax. As soon as I got in my seat, that same girl walked into the nearly empty theatre. She sat next to me. FML

Today, I was at the cinema. There was a really tall woman in front of me and whenever I leaned to the right or left she would lean to the same side I do. Later, she started laughing. They guy next to her was telling her where I moved. FML

Today, in an effort to make new friends in my history class, I sat in the empty seat next to a friendly-looking guy. He got up, walked away, and sat down in a different seat. FML

Today, my wife and I both spent a weekend away separately with our close friends. However, we ran into each other, unplanned, at the airport. She was with her girls and I was with my girlfriend. FML

Today, my girlfriend and I went on a date. I went to the bathroom. When I came back, she was sitting at a different table flirting with a guy that looked twice as old as her. FML

Today, I went to a movie with this guy. He was late so the only seats available were the ones in the very front which he refused to sit in. As we were looking for two seats, he spotted one near the back and sat down, leaving me to sit by myself in the front. FML

Why did you sit right beside her if you were the only two there in the first place? You probably creeped her the **** out.

Maybe it's just cause I'm British but personally I'd do the same. Why did you feel you had to sit right beside her? She probably just doesn't like strangers in her personal space. I highly doubt it was anything to do with you.

Yeah, I'd be weirded out if someone sat RIGHT next to me in a totally empty conference room too. Most people don't like sitting next to strangers if they don't have to.

That's like sitting next to the only person in the theater. Creepy.

YDI. All that room and you sit next to someone? Do you not realize how creepy that is?

What everyone else said. Why the hell are there more votes for FYL? You don't just sit down right next to a stranger unless there are absolutely no isolated seats left. In fact, the same thing happened to me the other day...you wouldn't happen to be that same creeper who tried to sit next to me, would you? Do you even have a life? Freak.

thats what you get for not respecting her personal space. if there were only two of you, that means there were PLENTY of seats around! Why would you sit right next to her. You're annoying! I would have moved too!

"I went to a conference today. I have bad issues with personal space, so I made sure they aren't fully booked. When this woman (a bit younger than me) came in and sat down directly beside me, I moved to the other side of the room. The conference wasn't fully booked for real - we were the only ones. She looked angry and hurt, I felt like shit for the entire day."
