Today, while leaving work, I noticed a woman struggling with her wheelchair. Trying to be kind, I grabbed the handles and began to push her. A few moments later, the front wheels caught on something and I ended up dumping her onto the ground. Now my coworkers all think I'm a huge douche. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I was walking to my dorm room while it was snowing heavily. I saw a girl in a wheelchair trying to get up a slippery incline. Being a good person, I asked to help. I'm a pretty weak guy, and I couldn't push her up. She wheeled away crying because she thought she was fat. FML
Today, as I was getting out of my car, an old and obese lady walked up to me and called me an "inconsiderate heartless bitch" for using the last handicap parking spot. I guess she didn't see my wheelchair. FML
Today, I attempted to be nice and hold a door open for a person in a wheelchair. He hit the button to open another door. While I pointed out that I would hold the door for him, I realized that the door I was holding open for him led down some stairs. FML
Today, an old lady steamrolled over my foot with her wheelchair, then laughed as she slowly rolled away, leaving my toes in ruins. FML
Today, feeling magnanimous, I decided to help a frail-looking old lady across a busy street. She managed to "accidentally" hit me in the balls with her cane no fewer than three times before we reached the other side. FML
Today, I was at the Salvation Army when I saw a wheelchair in the miscellaneous aisle. I thought it would be fun to ride around in it. As I was wheeling it back to where I found it, I made it back just as it's owner was hobbling out of the dressing room. FML
Today, I was fixing something in the back of my truck when a shopping cart sped past me towards traffic. I jumped down to catch it, but it was too late. Luckily, it didn't hit anyone, but a woman and her husband stopped to tell me what an asshole I was. Sorry for trying to save your car from someone else's cart. FML
Today, I made fun of my friend when she tripped over the curb. I said, loudly, "Haha, you can't even walk." I then notice the man in the wheelchair a few feet ahead of us. FML
Today, at work at a store, I was sitting on the floor stocking a bottom shelf. A woman in a motorized cart did not see me, and ran over my hand. When I alerted her about what she had done she laughed. FML
Today, the car in front of me in the drop-off area at my son's school parked, and the driver got out. I basically leaned on my horn and gave her every dirty look in the book. She said nothing but stared at me as she opened the back of her van to unload her child's wheelchair. I'm an asshole. FML

More a FHerL to me... She is already in a wheelchair and you also had her eat the macadam when she was minding her own business... Some people just cumulate bad luck :/ But well, your intentions were good.

pushing people without asking is never a good intention

OP just wanted to help her, but I agree, they should have asked first.

I was trying to leave a concert not too long ago and I was taking my time as so I wouldn't run over the pedestrians. It's hard to see the lady in the wheelchair, so people rarely move out of the way or make room for you. Anyway I was doing fine when out of no where a complete strangers runs up and "assist's" me. I was frightened and I had no control over myself and worse yet they separated me from my friends. Although I understand that some people see someone in a wheelchair and want to help, it is very kind that these people are so thoughtful. But to me it is taking away my little bit of independence I have. You wouldn't just run up to a fully capable walking person grab them by the arm and demand they go in the direction you wanted them to go, would you? Sorry I rambled ever so much, this was my lecture on always asking before helping. So OP I hope you asked first. and FHL and yours too I suppose.
