Today, I ran into my ex's family, and found out they are going to Europe. Funnily enough, so am I. Even funnier is the fact that we are going on the same date, at the same time, on the same flights, and the tour starts on the same day in the same place. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my wife and I both spent a weekend away separately with our close friends. However, we ran into each other, unplanned, at the airport. She was with her girls and I was with my girlfriend. FML
Today, I ran into my boyfriend at the mall, the same boyfriend who'd told me he was going on a family vacation to Mexico. FML
Today, my date bumped into her ex-husband, who decided to join us for the rest of the dinner. FML
Today, I saw my ex for the first time since we broke up. We were on a train next to each other for 6 hours, to a festival where our tents were pitched next to each other. We're here for 5 days. FML
Today, in order to avoid seeing my ex-girlfriend in class, I changed my schedule for "personal reasons." Apparently she had the same idea and changed her schedule as well. We now have all the same classes together. Before, we had just two. FML
Today, I ran into my ex-girlfriend at the mall. The one who I faked my death to back in Texas so I wouldn’t have to tell her I was leaving for someone else. She moved to Florida too. What a small world. FML
Today, I was gonna take my ex to a concert, but we broke up before it so instead I went with my Tinder date. When I got to the venue, my ticket was already used. My ex was in there. My date never got in. FML
Today, I ran into my boyfriend. The same guy that told me he was still in Florida with his family. FML
Today, my girlfriend bought two tickets for a cruise to the Bahamas. Too bad the second ticket isn't for me. I guess her ex-boyfriend will have a wonderful time with her. FML
Today, I bought my girlfriend two tickets to a Broadway show that was coming through town she really wanted to see. I couldn't attend with her due to work so she said she would take her mom. I found out later she took her ex. Now they're back together, and I paid for the date that made it happen. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm not sure if you are the stalker or the stalked.

uh,does your ex still have a "thing" for you? and did he know your itinerary, or did he schedule at your travel agency with a confidentiality breach?

So let me get this straight, OP is going on a tour of Europe? In that case, I call fake. I don't get why people seem to think Europe is one little country or something.

Why is that fake?? People go on those tours of Europe all the time, they won't see everything in Europe. There's heaps of those tours which go from 2 weeks to months on end.

Despite your repeated assertions that this was going to be funny, I slogged through your whole boring story and didn't even get the slightest chuckle. It's called "coincidence" and they happen all the time. No, it is not some deity ******* with your head.

I actually believe this one. If someone lives in a small enough town, or if you guys are part of the same social circle (church, workplace, book clubs etc.), then it's totally possible someone let your ex's family know that you were vacationing in Europe. They very well may be going the same places to keep an eye on you (if they're upset you dumped your ex, if that was the case). At any rate, it's kind of a good thing because you have incentive not to find a boyfriend or girlfriend there and you won't be as tempted to get drunk/stoned or fool around with anyone.

I agree. It's not uncommon to end up in the same places. A lot of tour places have pre-made iteneraries for different places. Not impossible that they have the same hotel either, since tour agencies tend to book those as well.

I live in a small town in the central US and we unexpectedly ran into four different families from our small town, all in the same week, in Florida.
