Today, my boyfriend was coming home after a month of being away. When I heard him knock on the door, I rushed to open it and jumped into his arms for a hug. It wasn't him; it was the mailman. FML

SquishFish tells us more.

Haha I'm OP. Well our door is solid so i couldn't see him. He was supposed to be there soon, so naturally I thought it was him. The mailman looked flustered for a moment (he was an awesome old guy) and then he smiled saying "Wow someone is excited about getting the mail!"

The mailman is relieved it wasn't a pitbull and aroused that it was you. =]

That is what the peep hole is for. So you look out of it to see who is there

Awwww, that's really cute, OP! <3 hope you still had enough enthusiasm in you for when your bf ACTUALLY got home!

Now it would of been awkward after you hugged the mailman, your boyfriend shows up.

Mail carriers have one of the most socially isolating jobs. Your good deed for the day. ;)

UPS, Fed Ex, any other person delivering a package that won't fit in a mailbox.

the mailman deserves a surprise hug from time to time =p~~
