Today, I was having a rough day and decided to go out for a walk at 1 a.m. to clear my head. I ended up being driven home by two cops, who thought I was prostituting myself at the truck stop. When we arrived, they had a nice conversation with my parents. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after taking my crush to the train station late at night, I sat in a local park alone with my thoughts for a while. Two cops appeared out of nowhere and started searching me for drugs and weapons, asking me questions for a good 30 minutes. Not the kind of action I expected tonight. FML
Today, I was walking down the street and while stopped at a light, this old man waved at me. Thinking nothing of it, I walked through a parking lot to get to where I was going, where he not only followed me, but mistook me for a prostitute. It was 5pm. FML
Today, I was walking my little sister home from the eye doctor. It was raining out so we were kind of in a hurry to get home. We get home and about half an hour later, the cops show up. Apparently, someone saw me walking my sister and called the cops on me thinking I was a child molester. FML
Today, I was driving back home after hanging out with some friends. I drove pass a woman standing next to a broken down car. I felt bad, so went back and offered her a ride home. Turns out it wasn't her car and she was a hooker. FML
Today, my friend and I were getting picked up by his dad after a carnival. As I put my stuff in the back of the car and shut the door to walk around to get in the other side, his dad drove off, thinking I was in the car, leaving me to walk up their hill. It was midnight and I ended up lost. FML
Today, my father told me to take the car and get some groceries. An hour and a half later, coming home with the groceries, I see the cops all around my house because my dad had called them, thinking that I had run away and stolen the car. FML
Today, I called the cops to let them know that a drunk man was driving dangerously down my road. About an hour later, I was going to the store and got pulled over for speeding by the cop I called. FML
Today, I was drunk and crashed on my friend's couch to sober up. On the drive home, a cop pulled me over for seemingly no reason. He kept asking if I had been drinking, to which I answered no. Finally, he told me to look in the mirror. My friends had written all over my face while I slept. FML
Today, I tried to have a fun night out. I met a guy and we went back to "his" place, which turned out to actually be his mother's house. He introduced me to her. Two hours later, I knew his life story and had to do the walk of shame without ever getting anywhere near his bedroom. FML
Today, I decided to be responsible and call a cab to take my drunk ass home from the bar. As I climbed into the cab, I was quickly pulled back out and had the shit beaten out of me by a group of drunk guys who thought they needed the ride more. The police soon arrived and arrested us all. FML

When the cops asked if you were a prostitute you should have said, " that depends, how much are you willing to pay?"

In these times did you really think "going for a walk at 1am to clear your head" would really turn out well?

Same exact thing happened to me... only it was one cop and he didn't accuse me of prostitution..

Same EXACT thing happened to me... only it was a female officer and I was running a stop sign. :D ...or maybe it's not exactly the same? :S

The cops thought you were out trying to clear other guys heads ;)

What were you wearing to make them think that?

A membership at a 24/7 gym would be an advantageous move for you. This way you can decompress in your favorite spandex gear at 1 AM without being accosted by officers...or johns. Added bonus: NOT being at a truck stop at 1 AM.

I don't blame you OP for going on a late night walk. It's quiet, the stars are out, and it's just pretty all around. Just go out a few hours earlier next time and bring some mace or something. They won't drag you home for curfew if it's still before 10-11 or whenever the curfew starts, even if it's already dark. That way you can enjoy a moonlight stroll while other people are still out walking their dogs and jogging, and the cops won't assume you're a hooker. xD Also, OP didn't necessarily have to be dressed like a prostitute to be mistaken for one. Most of them around here walk the streets in sweatpants and hoodies.

Most shady stuff happens after 5pm so cops need to be vigilant. Be thankful you didn't get raped.

As a woman living in a place where street walkers are a big issue, you shouldn't be walking alone at 1 am.
