Today, I got lost, and eventually noticed that I'd passed by the same house a few times. Apparently somebody who lives on that street noticed as well, because the next time I passed by, the police were waiting for me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went for a run. I ended up being tackled by two cops, handcuffed, and dragged to the station with no explanation. Turns out a house nearby had been robbed and the best description they got was, "A man running." I didn't even get an apology. FML
Today, just like every morning this month, I woke up, put on my clothes, looked out my window, and was pointed at by a man in a ninja outfit on my neighbor's roof. The police still can't find him. FML
Today, anticipating another stressful day of work, I left my house with a cluster of thoughts in my mind. It was only when I heard my front door lock behind me, my hand still resting on the handle, that I realised I had forgotten my house keys. FML
Today, my car broke down in the middle of nowhere. I walked about 3 miles to the nearest house to call a tow truck. When I got back to where I left my car, it was gone. FML
Today, I rode my bike to work. Once there, I realized I'd forgotten my bike lock. For fear of it being stolen, I quickly rode home and took my car instead. When I later got home, I realized my bike was missing. Someone stole it from my backyard. FML
Today, I was walking back home from a party, when I received an email from our neighborhood watch. It said to beware, because a "thug-like" stranger with a white shirt and brown hair had entered the neighborhood. My hair is indeed brown and I was wearing a white shirt. FML
Today, I was walking out of my front door in the town where I intern. I live alone and know no one. As I'm locking the door, I see a golf ball wedged between my mat and step. I notice that there's writing on it so I pick it up to read, "You look hot when you sleep." FML
Today, I found myself sneaking into my apartment to avoid the old lady who lives next to me. Funnily enough, I moved into my own apartment because I was tired of sneaking into it to avoid my mom, who lived with me. FML
Today, I lost my dog. I looked around my neighborhood for hours, and found him under my bed asleep when I got home. FML
Today, I was pulled over by a cop. He told me one of my lights was busted, and I couldn't help but point out that one of his was out too. He said, "Thanks, I'll get that fixed right away." then gave me a ticket. FML

Did they at least give you directions?

Seems like a blessing in disguise to me.

Paranoia at its best.

Honestly, how do you explain to cops that you're lost and not a stalker and get them to believe you?

In my neighborhood if you offer directions you'll get punched in the nose! Works both ways. U never know who's wondering the streets or who lives in the houses. Big city living, I knooooow.

Same thing happened to me. I was looking at a house for sale. I return with my wife and someone called the police because I looked suspicious in that neighborhood two days in a row.

That's when I'd sigh with relief pull up along side the officer and ask for directions

I imagine you'll try not to get lost in that neighborhood again. Haha. Tell the cops what happened and ask for a ride. :)

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I drove round, weak and weary, past the same house oh so frequent, the battery on my GPS spent. Off the road I pulled over, seemingly nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my car window. "You lost or sumpin?" said the visitor. Alarmed I suppressed a scream, "Just checking directions, and nothing more".

Just be glad that the town's police are so efficient. If I made a call like that here, we'd probably be waiting for about an hour before anyone arrived. I hope you found the place you were looking for in the end OP! :)
