Today, as I was walking into CVS, two older men outside said to me "Young lady, please consider us on your way out." Thinking they were hitting on me, I rolled my eyes and said "Screw you." When I walked back outside, I realized they were asking for AIDS donations. FML

Today, I was walking down the street and while stopped at a light, this old man waved at me. Thinking nothing of it, I walked through a parking lot to get to where I was going, where he not only followed me, but mistook me for a prostitute. It was 5pm. FML

Today, I saw an old man who needed help crossing the street. I went over to him and helped him across the street. When he thanked me, I said, "No problem, sir." They responded by hitting me in the happy sacks and screaming that they were a woman. FML

Today, at the supermarket, an old lady asked for directions to the produce aisle. Having read way too many stories lately on this very site about awful elderly folks, I was wary, but helped her out. She gave me an awkward hug in thanks, lifting my wallet in the process, as I later found out. FML

Today, I was helping out at my church. At lunchtime, a really cute guy my age walked over and told me I was pretty. I was flattered, until I turned around and saw his annoyed buddies handing him several dollar bills. FML

Today, while on the bus, I started a conversation with the person next to me. After a little back and forth, she finally said, "Do you think people will stop talking to me if I say I have aids?" FML

Today, at work at a grocery store an old couple came through my checkout lane. As I was putting their bagged groceries in the cart, the old man started feeling me up. FML

Today, I was walking through town when a rough looking woman asked me for a cigarette. I don't smoke but I offered her some apples, and she took two. As I continued on past her, she pegged both of them at me, hitting the back of my head. FML

Today, I saw an elderly woman struggling to reach the top shelf in my local grocery store, so I went over and asked if she needed help. She then accused me of flirting with her and had me escorted from the property. FML

Today, I went to the local pharmacy to buy some condoms. When I went to go purchase them, the elderly lady behind the counter took one look at me and said, "Honey, you're your own birth control." FML

Today, I went to my local pharmacy. Walking in, the security guard rudely asked me what I was going to buy. I brushed him off and walked in. I was paying and told the cashier what happened. She said "Sorry, we get a lot of hobos, they tend to steal." FML

Wow, way to overreact. One thing this site has taught me is a lot of girls think they're getting hit on when they aren't. ******* get over yourself. You probably aren't that pretty.

Chances are any time you see people ask you something like that outside a CVS, they are going to be standing there for donations for some kind of program I hope you at least donated when you walked back out and realized... lol

Wow, you must really have a high opinion of yourself and think that every man on the planet wants to get into your panties.

okay, it's just a defense thing when woman react that way. if you were a girl and an old man said that to you; you have no idea who they are and she obviously didn't see any type of donation table set up, I'm sure you wouldn't be all cheery. it's not a superiority complex. it's keeping yourself safe. she could have just ignored them, but oh well. maybe all the people dissing her on here should take a second and put themselves in her shoes.

I've been in the guys' shoes too often to care about hers. Doesn't seem to matter the circumstance, if I say hello to a girl, she'll often give me a dirty look like I'm trying to hit on her when I'm just being friendly.

I've been in the girl's shoes as well. However, I wasn't rude to someone that wasn't being vulgar. If something had been said that was ACTUALLY offensive, I would understand the response. But something like "please consider us on your way out" doesn't scream creep to me, especially on the sidewalk of CVS. Most women need to pull their heads out of their own asses and realize that there is always someone prettier and/or smarter.

I'm with #4. You better have given them some money. It doesn't really make up for being a giant bitch but it's a step in the right direction.

Yet another FML that was caused by rudeness. Even if they were hitting on you, it's still bloody rude! Eugh.

#9 I'm a girl and I wouldn't have done that. I would have been confused and ask them what they meant. "Please consider us on your way out" doesn't sound like a pick up line to me. And just cause she didn't see anything set up doesn't mean it wasn't there. Some people are oblivious to the world.

#1 poses an excellent question. I know "please consider me on your way out" isn't a pickup line I've ever heard.

I'm hoping once you realized your mistake, you explained what happened and gave them a very generous donation. And by "a very generous donation", I mean "all the money you had on you."
