Today, in an elaborate plan to finally meet my cute neighbor, I convinced my friendly mailman to switch up our mail so I'd have an excuse to meet her. After I delivered her mail, I waited for her to mention that she had my mail, but she never did. I even saw her take it out of her mail box. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the mailman delivered my new phone to my neighbour's house. This was okay, because he left a note in my mailbox informing me so. Now my crazy neighbour won't give me the package because, "*I* signed for it!" FML
Today, I awoke to banging at my door. It was my neighbor, accusing me of stealing her mail to spy on her, because apparently she thinks I must be some sort of secret agent. The cops don't believe me when I call, and she won't go away. FML
Today, I got a reply to my Valentine's Day card that I sent to my girlfriend. I'll get the address right next time because her neighbor is really creeping me out now. FML
Today, while I was home sick from work, my neighbor got packages delivered. Our apartments have had a lot of thefts lately so, being neighborly, I brought her stuff inside to wait. When she came home, I gave them right to her. Instead of thanking me, she told the office that I was the thief all along. FML
Today, I got a notification that a package had been delivered. I opened my door and saw it on at doorstep. I was expecting one, so I grabbed and opened it, then realized it wasn’t mine, but my neighbor’s. I had to awkwardly re-tape it, then sneak over and leave the disturbing contents of the box on their porch before they noticed. FML
Today, I found a love letter in my mail. It was from a girl I met at a bar few weeks ago. I never gave her my address or last name. I guess I have a stalker now. FML
Today, my new mailbox key finally arrived. Not at the front door as I requested, but in the mailbox. FML
Today, I received an envelope with my name written in beautiful writing in my mailbox. I just moved in the day before and hadn't given the address to anyone or met my neighbors yet so I was a bit surprised by it, even more surprised to find nothing but a dick pic inside. FML
Today, a phone I bought online turned up while I was at work. The delivery guy left a note saying he'd left the package with my neighbor at #10. When I went and knocked on the door and asked for the package, my neighbor said "Nope, nothing delivered here." and quickly shut the door in my face. FML
Today, I went to check my mail but there was a guy standing at the mailbox. I said, "Hey, get the fuck away from there." It was the mailman. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

She probably just hadn't looked at the mail yet. I really doubt she wants to steal your bills.

Hahah I love that you did this! I always try to make plans to finally meet the boy across the street and this is one of plans!

I'm more annoyed that he finds this plan elaborate than that he did this

Nice try though, and yeah, I hope that the mail was nothing important because asking that back would be pretty awkward...

Awe that's a cute thing to do to meet her OP. Sorry it didn't work out better. You deserve to be with someone thoughtful and sweet like you seem to be

You probably dodged a bullet. Assuming she knew the mail is yours (if not, then it's a different story), do you really want to associate with someone who so casually commits a federal crime like that?

Wow.... Just go up to her when she out and ask her to go somewhere. Not that hard.

You purposely had your mail delivered to someone you know nothing about? Tell me how those mysterious bank charges work out

She could have just wrote. "wrong address" on the mail and placed it back in her mail box and it would be the responsibility of the mail man to fix. Just because she didn't give it to him doesn't mean she stole his mail. Also it was a stupid plan to begin with, if someone had done that to me I would have thought them a creeper. Grow some balls and go over to her house.

Give it time, and maybe try to get your mail back

Ydi for not just going up to her instead? I mean, it sounds like you got the mail first anyways. Perhaps she saw you talking to the mailman....
