Today, my girlfriend from high school contacted me, telling me we should hang out some time; I casually agreed. Two hours later she's on my doorstep in tears, wanting me to take her back. She's married with kids. I live four states away and haven't a clue how she found out where I live. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, a girl I knew in high school who now lives out of state came to town to visit and stay over. We've been talking albeit romantically for the past few months. Not thirty minutes after we arrived at my place from the airport, her ex-boyfriend came by and she hopped in his car. I haven't heard from her since. FML
Today, I was visited by a high school friend who lives in another state. She was furious because I got married a few months ago, and she kinda had feelings for me. I had to ask her to leave. Here's the funny thing: she's been married for 4 years and they have a son, and she didn't even invite me to her wedding back then. FML
Today, I found out that my wife had been debating leaving me for an old boyfriend from high school. They rekindled their relationship on Facebook, and talking on the cell phone. Both things I insisted she have. FML
Today, after two months of being apart from my wife of five years, who'd returned to Panama to deal with a family issue, she innocently slips into conversation that she’s been hanging out with her high school boyfriend. When challenged, she responded, “You get to see me all the time!” FML
Today, I met up with my 'on again, off again' girlfriend of 4 years that I'm still madly in love with. We've been broken up for a few months and she's been dating someone else. We talked about possibly trying things again. When I got home, I found out she's engaged. FML
Today, I received a message on a dating app. It was the girl I'd always wanted to marry, but who disappeared from my life when we were younger. She went on and on about how much she missed me... and how much she wanted me to meet her husband and 3 kids. FML
Today, I got a call from a girl I fell madly in love with 8 years ago. She disappeared from my life with no trace. Turns out she just finalized her divorce, has 2 wild kids, packed on 75 lbs, has $25,000 in debt and is taking meds to keep from going crazy. Now she wants me back. FML
Today, some girl from Colorado called me. She knew my name. My Facebook. I had no idea how she got my number. She then asked me out. I say, "Sure…" sarcastically. She then called my girlfriend, who also lives in Colorado. Our relationship is now over. FML
Today, the girl who I had a desperate crush on in high school 25 years ago, and who would never go out with me, told me that she was actually head over heels in love with me, but was so cripplingly shy that she couldn't say yes. She's divorced now. I'm married. FML
Today, my girlfriend was crying. I asked her what was wrong, and she said her husband was going to divorce her for seeing me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

OP obviously you deserve it for being the best boyfriend in the world. I mean why else would she be at your door? Not like she got married to some abusive asshole and she needs a way out....

And good sir, how do you intend to verify such statements? :)

Im a girl, actually xD and if you read the FML it clearly says shes married with kids, and she was crying at his doorstep. its the most logical explanation :> also, my first post was sarcastic. There should be some sarcasm font available online..

So she goes to him, who already has a life of his own so she can "find a way out"? People shouldn't suck other people into their problems because of the choices they made.

They shouldn't. Doesn't mean they don't. It happens.

The comment was obviously sarcastic. It's sad when you have to indicate the use of sarcasm. If someone doesn't get it the FML comments is probably not the place for them.

Unless she turned up with the kids I think it's fair to say its her problems

Her mental state must have been way out of place.

She gave you up before she doesn't deserve to have you back in her life Op. Not to mention that she's evil for thinking about cheating on her husband and ruining her children's bind with their parents... EVIL.

Bond* sorry people, was fuming there, its not fair when people do this.

He may have broken up with her? But agree with everything else you said.

I absolutely agree a cheating spouse or parent destroys family's and children's bonds with thier parents.

You can't assume that... Maybe the reason she was at his door crying was because her husband cheated on HER. Or asked for a divorce, or as someone else said, was abusing her. In which case she's not evil, just sad.

Please don't tell me you took her in!?

And risk being a complete douche? hey I feel bad for OP for being put into a situation like this, but the women just went through 4 states within 2 hours. sure she was not very responsible nor respectable to OP, but the LEAST he can is actually let the woman in for a talk.
limitedition 25
The least OP can do is nothing. That's exactly what he should do here - nothing.

I think it goes without saying that that's really creepy! Be careful, dah'ling, and watch your back!

Sounds like she's regretting some life choices or reality and responsibility is weighing too heavily on her. Either way I think some professional help would be advisable :/
