Today, I was riding the bus home from school. I was sitting by myself, and my backpack was occupying the seat next to me. A hot girl boarded the bus, and was standing right where I was sitting. I placed my backpack on my lap, freeing up the seat. The girl stood the entire bus ride. FML

Today, I was riding the bus home from college. I was standing in the aisle and there was a rather cute girl sitting next to me. The bus came to an abrupt stop, I tripped, and fell into her lap. She shrieked, "Eww! Get off me!" and shove me onto the floor of the bus. Nice to know I'm revolting. FML

Today, a pretty girl joined the line at the bus station. I let her skip the line and go before me so I could sit next to her. After she bought her ticket, I realized there were no more seats left on that bus. I was told to get off, and had to take the next bus, sitting next to a snoring old man. FML

Today, a girl started talking to me at the bus stop. After it descended into an awkward silence, I jumped on my bus to avoid further conversation. She got on the same bus. And got off at the same stop. I swear the whole bus could feel the tension. FML

Today, while on the bus, I found out the seat I'd taken was the preferred spot of a very hostile and extremely overweight freshman. Instead of letting me find different place to sit, she half sat on me, and completely ignored my attempts to dislodge myself all the way to school. FML

Today, a lady on the bus came up to me and asked if she could sit down. Thinking she meant the seat next to me, I said sure. She meant my lap. FML

Stuck

Today, I was on train when an attractive girl got on. There were no free seats and seeing as how my stop was next, I gave her mine. As soon as I did, the train came to an immediate halt, due to "brake problems". I spent the next 40 minutes standing up. FML

Today, I was traveling by bus. There were no spare seats, so I stood next to a seated lady. When she got off at her stop, I was amused because her bum made the shape of a mushroom on the seat. I went to sit on it. So I'm sitting there when I realise the seat is really warm... and wet. FML

Today, while on the bus, I had to stand as all the seats were taken. I was standing behind a group of small girls who were messing around with their bags. As they were swinging them, one hit me square in the nuts with her elbow. The girl said, “Wise up, I hardly touched you.” I missed my stop. FML

Today, my friend and I offered a hot girl a lift home from campus. I was sitting in the passenger seat and she climbed in behind me. As I adjusted my seat forward to give her more leg room, my friend pulled off - slamming my seat back into her legs. FML

Today, I was sitting on the bus to the gym. I saw that an old woman needed help to get off the bus, so I got up, and helped her off. When I had finally got her down the stairs the bus closed the doors and drove away. I was in the middle of nowhere and the bus drove away with all my things. FML

If nobody has realized from reading all these FMLs yet, Its the really stuck up popular girls that do this kinda stuff. Spending the rest of your life with her or a part of it would be a bitch.

Maybe she thought you were a jerk. You kept your bag on the seat, not allowing other people to sit there, but as soon as you saw someone attractive, you moved it and expected her to sit down.

@#29 someone is anti-social and to the OP that sucks, but maybe she just didn't want to sit? Or you're just an ugly ass mofucka

I'm sure it wasn't because of you as to why she wouldn't sit next to you. When I ride the bus I would rather stand than sit next to someone. I like my space when I'm in an environment with people I don't know. I see girls do this all the time. Plus maybe she was tired of sitting. Not an FML at all. Unless you asked her to sit next to you and still wouldn't.

back@#43, I'm actually not anti-social at all, I'd just rather meet someone through a friend or colleague. More often than not, when I'm alone, it's the first time in a while. So not talking to anyone for the 10 minutes I have to myself is a luxury. I don't want to strike up a conversation with some guy that has probably been staring at my ass for two minutes before they even thought to ask if i wanted to sit down. But if they DO speak up, unlike the OP I'm not going to be rude and ignore them. I'll A) Politely decline. B) Respond to whatever that person has said, then tell them I'd rather stand but thank you. C) Half smile and turn around. OR D) Depending on my mood and the time of day, have a nice conversation from a distance.

You should have asked, "Would you like to sit here?" Unless you are totally gross or a well-known perv, she would have sat there out of common courtesy. If she had taken that seat just because you picked up your backpack, she might think you have the wrong idea (and she'd be right). Learn some social graces from us old folks!

**** her, the Harry Potter backpack looked better in that seat anyways. Plus it held your rare Enterprise model and eye-glass tape.
