Today, I walked home from work when a woman asked me to come inside for a free meal. It was at a homeless shelter. FML

Today, I went in the diner I always pass by and ordered a sandwich. When I asked how much it was, the waitress replied, "Don't worry, honey. We give free meals to the homeless on Thursdays." I was too ashamed to deny it, so I just said thank you and left. FML

Today, while volunteering at a local homeless shelter, I asked the woman next to me how long she'd been homeless. She works there. FML

Today, while I was walking home, a homeless man saw me and didn't ask for change, but how much I charged. FML

Today, as I was walking towards my friends at the bus stop, a man came up to me and asked me out. This was the first time I'd be asked out in months. I accepted. When I reached my friends they looked at me then asked, "Why were you talking to that homeless guy?". FML

Today, I was sitting in the park eating a sandwich, when a homeless guy asked me for some spare change. I said I didn't have any. He offered an "erotic striptease" in exchange for my sandwich. I said no. He gave one anyway. I walked back to work on an empty stomach. FML

Today, I ended up talking to a homeless man and bought him a meal. In return, he hugged me and groped my ass. FML

Today, at work, a homeless woman called me trash, threw her coffee at me, and told me to get a job. I do have a job. It's homeless outreach. FML

Today, at 6am I was waiting for the tram to go home from my late night job. A homeless man came up to me and offered to buy me a beer because "guys like us have to stick together." FML

Today, while walking down the street, a homeless man walked up to me. He opened his mouth to say something and I immediately said that I didn't have any spare change because I was late for work. He then said "I was gonna ask you for the time, dickwad". Apparently he wasn't homeless. FML

Was this woman herself a homeless person? If so, I wouldn't stress it. I live downtown in an area where there are frequent homeless people. They usually ask me for dollars, and to follow them around. Ideally what they want you to do is gain their trust, then pull your wallet out and they'll either grab & run, or ask for more money than you want to give.

you must have been shuffling up the sidewalk, talking to your pocketwatch with an aluminum foil cap on. --just kidding-- actually, most of the homeless people i have met are really cool and willing to help people out. maybe you just looked like you could REALLY use a meal? i wouldn't be offended until the staff starts asking you questions about your mental stability. but, like a few others said, you should have gone. a few of the most interesting conversations i have ever had took place in homeless shelters or soup kitchens. get out, buddy...make some new (pungent) friends.
