Catch 22
Today, I found out I have a restraining order against me from my ex boyfriend. Apparently, I drive by his house too much and it is considered stalking. He forgot that I live 2 houses down, and MUST drive by his house to get home. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had a restraining order put on me. I have apparently been following a woman's daughter home after she leaves track practice and parking my car outside their home. I'm a math teacher at the school and leave everyday at 4:30. I have lived across the street for the past six years. FML
Today, my husband's ex-girlfriend is getting a restraining order on him. Turns out, for the past 2 years of our marriage, he has been trying to contact her and ditching work to stalk her. To top it all off, he told me not to come to court with him because he doesn't want her to see he downgraded. FML
Today, after almost a year of dating and getting dumped out of the blue, I found out my ex-girlfriend wants to get a restraining order against me. I guess dropping a box of her things on her porch after she wouldn't answer her phone is considered stalking. FML
Today, I had to serve my boyfriend's father with a restraining order. FML
Today, I got a stern talking-to from the police about threatening and harassing people. Who had called them? None other than my stalker, whom I'd just informed about the restraining order I was filing against him after finding him in my house. For the second time. FML
Today, I finally got a restraining order against my violent ex. My mom now keeps finding ways to tell me how shitty I am for breaking the "poor boy's" heart and how I didn't deserve him anyway. FML
Today, I found out that my violent ex has moved to my country for the sole purpose of tracking me down. I know this because my former boss called and told me she gave him my address. She loves the idea of us getting back together because, "You're such a cute couple!" FML
Today, my fiancé and I just moved into our first apartment together. Our neighbor across the hall? My ex-boyfriend who I've had to file three separate restraining orders on. FML
Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend on campus. Upset, I decided to go to McDonald's to eat my painful memories away. While in the drive-thru line, I realized my ex was right in front of me. It looked like I'd followed him all the way from campus. He thinks I'm a stalker now. FML
Today, I discovered that my abusive, obsessive, psychotic ex-boyfriend from over two years ago still has a thing for me. How did I find out? Although I've ignored him walking unnecessarily past my house for the past two months, it was hard to ignore when he fell from a tree outside my window. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

What the. You have a retarded ex.

He must have a high opinion of himself if he thinks you would drive past his house every day just to see him. If you can't drive past his house how are you going to get home?

Chances are he didn't forget. He's just being a douche. That's all.

#27, the FML that went something like this, "Today, I went to the grocery store and the little old lady in front of me started talking to me, and then left, then after my stuff was rang up (which was not that much stuff) the total came to about 350 dollars. I was confused, so the check out guy told me that the little old lady said that I was her grandson, and that I would be covering her bill. FML" was definitely removed because so many people complained about it because it is an urban legend, so stfu when you don't know what you are talking about!!! Also, everybody that complains that this is fake, unless you know for 100% (such as you are a lawyer, judge, etc) or its a stupid urban legend such as the one above, you should stfu too!! Just learn to enjoy the effin site, thats what its here for.... As for the OP, I am sorry that that happened, it sucks when your exes try to rub it in your face that you are no longer together because they are selfish assholes that only care about thier egos.

Well, you should feel good that you're not longer with an idiot. ..But,..that sucks...why would he do that?

What a nutcase. Be glad he's your ex. & who cares if this is fake. but if it's not, you should probably fight it. if everyone knew how much creeping their exes do on facebook, myspace, and the ganeralinternet, we'd all have restraining orders. haha. maybe not quite that extreme, but still.

Hahahahah #29, you really think someone getting a restraining order against you is a sign they're not over you? Yikes.

Yeah, you seem like a real threat to his well being. He better watch out. Little fragments of asphalt might get him in the eyes as you drive past, oh noes.

I REALLY doubt he 'forgot' that you lived right there.

He cannot forget that you live 2 houses down. If so, then I'm sure he'll forget he has a restraining order against you.

#14, here's my guess of what happened. The ex filed for the restraining order, and then the police interviewed the OP. After talking to the police and getting things straightened out, the OP posted this FML. So the FML is that 1) the OP had to go down to the police station (or talk to the police) in the first place and convince them s/he isn't a stalker, 2) the OP now has an extremely awkward relationship with the ex, and 3) the OP has discovered that s/he was apparently at some point in time dating a paranoid moron.
