Today, I was at the airport when I saw a woman drop her bags and run to her husband. Thinking that someone might steal them, I picked up her bags and brought them over to her. She thanked me by slapping me, calling me a bitch and calling security. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while bagging my groceries at a store, a lady came over to me, took a good look at the food I'd bought, picked out an item and put it in her bag. When I confronted her, she called security on me and told them I wanted to steal her stuff. I got thrown out and she walked away with a smirk. FML
Today, I was standing in a queue when an old lady turned, looked straight at me, and asked me to hold her bag. Confused, I took a hold of it. She started screaming for help claiming I was stealing her shopping. Turns out, she was talking to her husband behind me. FML
Today, I helped an elderly woman carry her suitcase down a flight of stairs. When I got to the bottom, a man tackled me to the ground thinking I was stealing the woman's luggage. As I lay in pain, he ran up the stairs to return the suitcase and the poor woman had to carry it down on her own. FML
Today, I was walking through a rough part of town, when a woman screamed that I'd stolen her bag. I was tackled to the ground by a large guy, who then gave my bag to her. FML
Today, I saw a drunk woman drop her purse in the street. I picked it up and went to give it to her, only for her to scream at me for being a thief. Then she started crying, apologized and hugged me, then got angry again, and finally threw up on me. FML
Today, I was boarding a plane and an elderly woman asked if I could put her carry on into the overhead bin. Eager to help, I energetically lifted her bag up, and smacked her in the face with it. FML
Today, I tried to be helpful by holding the door open for a woman carrying boxes. She smiled and hurried toward me, then tripped and dropped everything at my feet. She stared at me like I'd caused it, and said, “Thanks” through clenched teeth. FML
Today, I saw a woman drop her wallet in the grocery store. Being a good citizen, I sprinted after her to return it. She heard me running, panicked and took off. I ended up chasing her through three aisles saying, “Wait! I have your wallet!” Security got involved. FML
Today, I was working as a cashier and a woman brought up a suitcase. As I was ringing her up I checked inside like I'm supposed to and I very jokingly say, "Look at all the stuff you're stealing." She laughed nervously then hit me in the head with her heavy purse before running out of the store. FML
Today, while at the mall, a lady dropped her credit card while in line to buy something. I came over, picked it up and gave it to her just for her to shove it in my hand and scream, "She's stealing my wallet! My wallet!" The police came. FML

As someone who's been to the airport a many number of times, you shouldn't of some that op. They say every 10mins not to let anyone handle your luggage and to report any suspicious luggage left behind. I feel for you Op, you did the right thing but the rules are harsh. Lady deserved to have security called on her instead of op. P. S. Who dafuq drops their luggage at an airport, that's like asking to be called a terrorist. Doesn't matter is its a touching reunion, I seen plenty.

I don't get why she was so air-rate with you. She's the flighty one who forgot her bags. OP we know you meant well and didn't plane on her anger taking off like that. FLY.

Never touch other people's stuff just for this reason. A lot of good deeds get interpreted wrongly.

It's not even worth helping people anymore.

No. It is always worth helping people. In WW2 and throughout history - refugees are hidden despite the punishment being death for their protectors, people who need a voice are stood up for, and human nature shows its goodness in everyday actions. Don't let yourself be disillusioned by a minority of people acting like jerks, fml is a great site but due to its nature does tend to show people in a negative light. I really hope you keep doing kind things OP - well done!

I think it's best to not do anything for anyone you don't know. They always think you are some thief, pedophile or serial killer.
