Today, I admitted my fear of small spaces to my boyfriend. His response was to immediately lock me in the hall closet. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend snuck into my house and hid in my closet. Knowing that I have a phobia of people jumping out of closets, he nonetheless thought it would be funny to see how I'd react. I had a panic attack and was taken to the hospital. FML
Today, I finally told my boyfriend that I see a therapist every week because, amongst other things, I'm terrified of being locked in a room. He didn't believe me, so he locked me in the bathroom "for a laugh." I had a panic attack and passed out. FML
Today, I had to hide in the closet all morning because my 22-year-old boyfriend didn't want to admit to his parents that he had his girlfriend stay the night. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I snuck into the bathroom together at his house for a quickie. Just as we unzipped our pants, his step-dad knocked on the door. Panicking, I jumped into the closet to hide. When his step-dad came in, he went to put some towels away. In the closet. FML
Today, I felt comfortable enough to invite the guy I’ve been seeing over to my apartment for the first time. Things immediately got weird when he started to inspect my place top to bottom to make sure it was “clean to his standards”. I told him to leave when he started going in my closet. FML
Today, my boyfriend starting going off on me, calling me a psycho, all because I opened our bedroom door while he was in there. FML
Today, my boyfriend shared with me his anxiety about death, so I shared with him one of my ridiculously irrational fears. He thought I was making fun of him and now won't talk to me. FML
Today, I asked my boyfriend why he never seems to have his own opinion, always agrees with me, and does whatever I want. That’s when he admitted he’s scared of me and is terrified of saying or doing anything I won’t like. I have no idea what I did to scare him this badly. FML
Today, I was squeezed through an overly-crowded hallway down to my psychologist's. There, I sat in an overly-crowded waiting room to see him, next to an obese woman and an insane man. I finally entered the smaller-than-a-closet room. My reason for seeing a psychologist? Claustrophobia. FML
Today, my boyfriend convinced me to face my fear of horror movies by promising to hold my hand through the entire flick. He fell asleep 10 minutes into it, farting and snoring in his sleep, whilst I was paralysed by fear. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

The first thing that comes to mind is Dane Cook's skit about the monster in the closet from his Vicious Circle act.
TourettesGuyFTW 26
Dane Cook is an unfunny asshole.

He might of thought she was joking.. On a lighter side, maybe he was just testing it to see if it was legit!

I think the fear goes away, but a possible eunuch life is unhealthy for long therm relationships

Why does everyone have to make fun of homosexual people. I mean come on back home if you were homosexual you would get executed.
Roevera 14
You clearly forgot to shut the f*ck up as well.

I'll be the dumbass to English interpreter here :) Why, a haunt in Vegas has a small space in their haunt. I dont get panic attacks easily, but it took two big men to drag me to safety (and I'm not overweight: 140 and proud). Note to the op: I'm so sorry. If my girlfriend did that to me, I would be angry, since that's not cool.

Am I the only one that still doesn't understand the haunt in Vegas part?
ninjuh_wingman 29
Maybe he just wanted to test it out to see if you were telling the truth.

Teenage girls do tend to be small and easy to move.
