Today, an hour into a family road trip, my mother informed me that she didn't put my suitcase in the car because it "didn't fit". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my family was leaving for a weekend trip and was supposed to pick me up on the way down. About an hour before they are supposed to arrive, my mom calls to tell me that there's no room left in the car, so they won't be stopping to get me. FML
Today, I flew across country to college. My luggage did not. FML
Today, my family informed me that we were going on a 10 hour road trip to my cousin's wedding. They only decided to tell me 45 minutes before we left for said road trip. FML
Today, while on vacation with my family, my mother told me to put my phone in her purse, so it wouldn't get stolen. Someone stole her purse. FML
Today, we drove six hours to get to our holiday cottage only to realise that my girlfriend had forgotten her suitcase. This put her in a bad mood, so she made ME drive six hours back to her flat to get it, then when I got there, I realised HER keys to HER FLAT were still in HER handbag six hours back at the cottage. FML
Today, I reached into my pocket and found my mom's car keys. I'm a four hour drive away, and she obviously can't come to pick them up. FML
Today, my mother had a full-on hissy fit because of the clothes I was wearing. Not because she thought they were inappropriate, but because I was "stealing her look." 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 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, I couldn't get to work because I couldn't find my car keys. It turns out, my mother took them and put them "somewhere safe." She can't remember where they are. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

#1 And keep it all close on the day they're packing to come home, so OP's mother doesn't ditch it again.

Your optimistic attitude is what I need in my life.

Then those won't go again because they won't fit.

That's messed up. I hope it's not too long of a trip.

Did she not think about the smell the car will be filled with if you didn't get to change?

How did she think that would even work?

That's what I'm saying.

I'm not sure what mindset some people have at times... Well, you could have her buy new clothes.

I'm sorry but your mother is an asshole op. Knowing that you guys are going on a trip, she decides to leave you without all your clothes and necessities? That is just royally ****** up.

#20 It works even if OP is a woman.

Was she serious? She could have been joking to worry you especially if you had no way of checking until a stop.

That was my reaction as well if OPs mother is actually that mean I doubt he would even go on a trip with her in the first place
