Today, at a concert, my friend grew tired of holding her bag. She asked a man to hold it, saying that he wouldn't steal it "since it was hers". I quietly told her she was too naïve and irresponsible. After the concert, I got home and noticed my wallet was stolen instead, right out of my pocket. FML

Today, I got a taxi home from work. Only having notes in my wallet, I told the taxi driver that I'd run inside my house and come back out with the change for the journey. He agreed, but only if I left my bag as collateral. It seemed fair. An hour later, I realized my wallet was missing. FML
Today, I had gone to the store and bought a new wallet. 5 minutes later a security guard asks for my receipt. Turns out I had dropped my receipt. Some guy had picked it up and pretended I had stole his wallet. The guard confiscated my wallet because the guy had "his" receipt to prove it. FML

Today, I went for a job interview. Before giving me a tour, the manager pointed to my purse and said, "Better leave that in my office." I didn't know why it was safer in her office than on my shoulder, but I complied. Later, I went to buy coffee and discovered that all my cash was missing. FML

Why Was she being an hypocrite? She only told her friend that they are gonna stole her purse..

Hypocrite: 1.a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, esp. a person whose actions belie stated beliefs. You are using that word completely incorrectly so I had to assume you don't really know what it means.

The OP told her friend not to hand a random stranger her purse because he could steal it. That doesn't mean the OP is a hypocrite when her own stuff is stolen from one of her pockets. They were still practicing what they preached, it just didn't work out for them. It's more Irony than anything. (I write more than a few lines a comment or it won't post, hence the two comments)

This isn't a complete YDI, I think. She was just looking out for her friend. Who brings a purse to a concert anyway?

Why did you have to take your whole wallet? Why did your friend feel the need to take her whole bag? Money, ID, and phone. All that can either fit in your FRONT pocket or your bra

It was a bag, not a purse. Maybe the concert was outdoors, so the bag was a tote with water, sunscreen, etc. Or maybe the friend hit the merch booth and went crazy.
