Always call first

Today, I went to visit my aunt who lives 6 hours away from me. Her car was missing from her driveway, but she's unemployed and barely leaves the house. Turns out, she moved in with her new boyfriend and didn't tell anyone, so I had to drive 6 hours back. FML

Today, I went to visit my parents after 4 years of not seeing them. They'd moved without telling me. FML

Today, my aunt asked me to drop off some old stuff to her place. As I'm driving there, my car conked out and I got delayed. When I finally got there, she looked at the time and goes, "Yet another thing you're not good at." FML

Today, my family and I drove to a mall an hour away. We split up, and I went into a store by myself. A little later, I get a call from my brother asking me where I am. They had already left to go home and didn't notice me missing from the car. They were already halfway home. FML

Today, due to bad weather, my dad let me take his car to drive to my apartment 3 hours away. I only realized when I got there that my keys were still sitting on my parents' kitchen counter. FML

Today, I was having a conversation with a new friend when she remembered she needed to grab something from her car. I don't know where she parked, but it's been two and a half hours and she's still gone. FML

Today, I had to drive 300 miles to a town where I thought I'd forgotten my purse the night before. When I got to the hotel I had been staying at, I found out it was actually in the trunk of my car. FML

Today, my friend, who I'm moving in with, flew up to drive from Pennsylvania to Texas, where she lives, with me. I went to the airport to pick her up and we discovered she accidentally flew to the wrong airport. On the other side of the state. I'm driving through the night to rescue her. FML

Today, I went to visit a friend I hadn't seen in ages who lives alone out in the country. I arrived and found the front door unlocked but no one was home. I went in anyway and helped myself to some food. Then a family I had never seen before came in, and I realized it wasn't my friend's house. FML

Today, my girlfriend woke up very early in terrible pain. I drove her to the hospital and fell asleep in the waiting area. When I woke up, my car was gone and it was 9am. She had assumed I just walked home (32 miles), so she took the car. I was the only one in the waiting area. FML

Today, my friend asked me if she could borrow my laptop and I can pick it up later and I said ok. I stop by her house later and no one answers. The next-door neighbor says that she left to go live with her mom. She lives in Detroit. I live in Maine. FML

Why would you surprise someone like that? How do you know they're in the mood to see you on no notice? Let's just hope the "new boyfriend" isn't also your boyfriend or husband!

And, you didn't think to call her before leaving?

So you just randomly show up at other people's houses without any notice? You don't even ask for their permission before just showing up at someone else's place? Glad my family isn't like that.

I have a hard time imaging that OP is stupid enough to drive 6 hours without telling someone they are coming, so I'm just going to assume that they did tell their aunt they were visiting, and the aunt just didn't say they'd moved.

Obviously you didn't bother to tell her you were coming. ydi

Today, my niece just randomly tried to show up at my house without telling me, and somehow it's all my fault for not magically knowing she was coming. I actually moved and now she's really mad. FML

Why the **** would you drive 6 hours one way to surprise drop in on someone during a global pandemic???? I mean, even without that its chancy and downright rude. "Hi, surprise, im here for an indeterminate amount of time to disrupt your life with no notice, stay in your home and eat your food! Oh and now I'm also breaking quarantine and maybe exposing you or myself to a deadly virus! Isnt that awesome?" Dumbass
