Today, I was at my girlfriend's house when we noticed her cat was missing. We saw it on the roof and so I thought I would try to look good by offering to go on the roof to retrieve it. The cat had climbed down when I got up there, and I have a fear of heights. Her mom had to help me down. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I woke up to see my cat crawling out my window onto the roof. Afraid he was going to jump to the ground, I crawled out my window as well. I caught him. The neighbors caught me in my underwear and bra yelling at my cat on the roof. FML
Today, my dog surprised everyone by somehow managing to climb on the roof. I followed him up and spent the next hour trying to catch him. FML
Today, I woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and I noticed the balcony door was open. As I went to go close it, I swear I saw my cat wondering outside and I panicked. Long story short, I locked myself out searching for the cat and the next thing I knew, he was meowing at me from the balcony a few feet above me. FML
Today, my cat jumped out a fourth-story window when I went to pet her. FML
Today, my boyfriend was on the roof of his house. I climbed the ladder but I'm kind of scared of heights, so when I got up there I just sat on the edge. The gutter broke, fell down, and I fell along with it. My boyfriend then said, "I've been trying to tell you to go on a diet". FML
Today, I spent a half hour trying to help my cat down after he got stuck in the tree on my lawn. I finally gave up and called a local tree care company to help. When I returned outside, I found my cat casually walking about by the door. The guy who showed up to help was not happy. FML
Today, I went searching for my cat who'd escaped. Of course, I searched the entire building and somehow she'd got back in through my front door of my apartment. FML
Today, I fell down the stairs of my apartment building because I thought my cat was a ghost. FML
Today, my cat jumped on my shoulders, but stepped in my hood and choked me and when I panicked she dug her claws into my shoulders. FML
Today, my neighbor knocked on my door and asked if I'd seen her cat. I helped her search the hallway, basement, and garden for 30 minutes. We finally found it sitting inside my apartment, where I had apparently been living with it for three days without noticing. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Mission accomplished! But it's cool being afraid of heights. Just not cool her mom helped you down. Haha. Nice try at least.

My cats climb on the roof all the time. They like to meow in my skylight at night and wake me up, too. The bastards.

I guess we should just be thankful OP's girlfriend didn't have a small female dog on the roof... To get in the mind of a little bitch, ect....

If you're afraid of heights, why'd you clmb the roof in the first place? There are plenty of other alternatives.

Oh god, I was terribly confused because I read the FML as if it were her "car" missing. When she said it climbed down I knew something was wrong haha

I thought the same thing o.O

i would have coaxed it down first... or said it'll come down on its own.

Yeah, really. "Oh shoot, Kitty's on the roof.... Well, she managed to get up there so she'll get down eventually. Let's go eat or something."

I agree, when I read this I thought it was really sweet and automatically thought he didn't deserve it

When my cat got stuck in a tree, I lured her it with cheese... Because, who doesn't like cheese?
pcentral 17
OMG did someone say cheese?!?! *gets massive erection*

Yeah, makes sense that the cat likes cheese because mice like cheese, cat like mice, so cats like cheese:)

I ******* love cheese! And bacon. And Cashews. *drool*

Or canned tuna. Works every time with mine.

I'm sure she will appreciate the fact you were scared but still willing to go and help the cat down. So, no big deal :)

Be glad her dad didn't have to help you, that would've given him seconds thoughts about you being with her
OhDearBetrayal 25
I don't see why he would have second thoughts. Everyone has fears.

I think there are now two pussys at your girlfriend's house ;) YDI it for trying to act tough when you knew you had a fear of heights.

No one is afraid of heights--they're afraid of falling.

no #65: I am terrified of heights....would much rather fall than be up high. Thank you, that is all

That was sweet of you to offer. Even though you were scared and needed help down, I'm sure you scored mad points with your gf and her mom.

Thats okay, im sure she still likes/loves you... You went up there even when you knew you had fear of hights.. Thats brave! :)
