Today, the small plane I was on almost crashed, all because the pilot's girlfriend figured out mid-flight that he's been cheating on her, causing her to start screaming abuse and furiously beating him. FML

Today, I left on my honeymoon with my wife who is terrified of flying. The pilot announced incoming storms in the flight path, and the man next to me starts saying it's "probably fate" and "we all have to go sometime." My wife went into a full panic attack. We hadn't even left the ground yet. FML

Today, I was in the airport after saying goodbye to my boyfriend who left for three months. Walking back to my car, I saw a young couple kissing passionately. If that wasn't bad enough, the guy then picked his girlfriend up, spun her round in the air and her foot kicked me square in the jaw. FML

Today, I discovered that my boyfriend of two years was cheating on me. How? His other girlfriend crashed her car into mine and had him pick her up. FML

Today, I flew to Mexico with my (now ex) boyfriend of two years. It was my first time flying, and apparently I have a fear. I had a panic attack on the plane. When we landed, I got dumped for "causing a scene." I am now stranded in Mexico alone for two weeks with no hotel room booked. FML

Holiday blues

Today, my girlfriend and I went on vacation. We flew 2000 miles, got off the plane, got our bags and stood outside the airport for our ride. She looks at me and says, "I can't do this anymore." So, she broke up with me and flew back home. Now I'm on vacation alone. FML

Today, after flying halfway across the world to see the man I love, he admitted cheating on me several days before I arrived, not only with someone I know, but with someone I hate. FML

Today, I was shopping with my girlfriend, when a girl came out of nowhere, screaming at me for cheating on her, and saying she was dumping me. I've never seen her before, and she was almost grinning during her little act, but my girlfriend believed it, and I'm now single. FML

Today, I was on the plane asleep. I woke up after feeling the plane jolt and I screamed at the top of my lungs. The little girl next to me told me I was a sissy. Everyone on the plane laughed. FML

The strangeness of strangers

By wellalrightythen - 09/02/2015 06:23 - United States - Hobart

Today, I boarded a plane. A woman decided that she didn't like where she'd put her carry on luggage and pulled it out from over my head. The heavy luggage then fell right onto my face, the wheel smacking me in the mouth and busting my lip open. She just laughed and waltzed away without a word. FML

That must've been scary as ****. I wouldve tied her down and told her to get her shit together until we landed!

Those smaller planes are iffy to begin with; I can't imagine the trauma of a distracted pilot on top of that.

As a pilot myself, I can tell you that in a situation such as that, the pilot is legally allowed to restrain the violent passenger by any means necessary (within reason)

Do they not usually have air marshals on small planes? I'm responding to you #34 because I figured as a pilot, you would know more than anybody.

42, my dad is a pilot for commercial as well as a small airplane pilot and flight instructor. We own a small plane, and by small I mean four seats, including pilot and copilot, but you can fly without a copilot. So no, there's nobody on the plane but the pilot and whoever they want. The pilot's girlfriend could even had sit in copilot, as I've been doing since I was young, without actually being a copilot.

If the plane is small, the passenger seats may be directly behind the pilot and copilot seats.

Who reacts to cheating by beating on the cheating partner? Of course the fact that said cheating partner is flying the damn plane and she still beat him makes her that much scarier.

Yeah a woman did the same thing to a man when he was driving a car, he ended up punching her in the face and was convicted of battery.

THIS WOULD NEVER HAPPEN, MY DAD IS A PILOT AND NOBODY CAN GET IN OR OUT OF THE COCKPIT DURING FLIGHT

I would be blaming the pilot, not his girlfriend

Cheating is bad, but is petty revenge for it worth at least 3 people's lives? The pilot is hardly at fault for her actions.

and.... I think I know why he cheated on her. To not only respond with that much anger and physical violence, but to do so to the person FLYING THE PLANE. it's a suicidal level of anger. And as ****** as it is to cheat, how is physically assaulting someone okay? We wouldn't applaud this if it was a woman talking about being slapped around by a boyfriend who found out she cheated. Wouldn't surprise me to find out this wasn't the first time abuse has happened

A few months back there was an FML about someone's mom confessing - at her daughter's wedding - to her husband that she was cheating on him and the Dad slapping her, and the comment section was basically just people saying that the mom deserved to be slapped. So while I absolutely agree with you that assaulting someone is wrong and should not be applauded, I'm not sure everyone on this site is so against it.
