Today, I tried being rebellious for the first time in my life by sneaking out past my curfew. I tried to climb out of my bedroom window to stealthily leave the house. I ended up twisting my ankle when I tried to make my "great" escape. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I slipped out my bedroom window at night in an attempt to rebel against my parents. Then I realized that I have no friends and nowhere to go, so I tried to climb back in. I fell, broke my ankle, and laid in the dirt until my parents found me in the morning. FML
Today, I snuck out of the house to go to a party. When I got back later, I tried climbing back up the rope-ladder I'd set up earlier, leading back through my bedroom window. I was halfway up when it broke free. I sprained both my ankles and had to shamefully ring the doorbell to get back in. FML
Today, I was locked out of my house. With no other available option, I decided to try and ninja my way through a window. However, as it turns out, I would make a terrible ninja. I now have a sprained ankle and a broken window. FML
Today, since I was grounded, I tried to sneak out of my room to attend a party by climbing out the second-storey window and down the tree. I was unharmed, but I probably should have checked to see if my dad was in the garden before climbing down. FML
Today, I tried to sneakily leave my boyfriend's house at 3 a.m. without his parents knowing. I had a flat tire. FML
Today, I found out I can sneak out of my house... but not back in. FML
Today, my sister and I are never allowed to go out, and by out I mean even open the front door. Last night, I snuck outside. What did I do in my rare act of rebellion? I cut the grass. FML
Today, I was bitched out at 2 a.m. by my parents, for trying to "sneak out." I was sneaking out of my bedroom to take a crap. FML
Today, I snuck out to see my girlfriend in the middle of the night. When I got to her house, I decided to throw a rock at her window to wake her up. It broke a hole in the window. FML
Today, I was trying to sneak home from a party. Instead, I head-butted a glass door and woke my mother up. FML

Jesus have you guys never ever done something 'rebellious' in your youth? OP stated they don't normally do this, so rebelling just once is such a massive thrill. Lighten up a little.

They deserve it less so for attempting to sneak out, more so for having the agility of a newborn giraffe.

#29 Even though being rebellious for the first time may be exciting and adventurous, there will be consequences no matter how big or small the rebellious act is. I've never once snuck out of my house because I knew I'd be paying a hefty punishment (and I didn't have anywhere to go really). OP's life sucks because she just wanted to try something new, but she also deserved it because that's the number one rule breaker in a mother's and/or father's house, and it could also be dangerous.

#37 There's only consequences if you get caught... Lesson learned for next time!

#54 Or something bad happens like they get kidnapped while out and their parents have no clue where to start even looking.

#62 A person can get kidnapped at any point in time during the day or night. Do you suggest becoming agoraphobic and never leaving the house?
garrett_8614 14
Yes you could get kidnapped at any time, fair enough. But if you sneak out and get kidnapped, your parents literally have no idea where you could possibly be. This is why there are rules in place. No ones judging OP for sneaking out, but if you do sneak out, you have to be prepared to deal with the potential consequences. OP deserved it.
jazman195 20
The whole ideology of kidnapping someone is to make it so that your parents/whomever have literally no clue where you could be no matter if you sneak out or if they know exactly where you were beforehand. Kids get taken from their own property all the time even when following rules. Day or night, doesn't matter. Come on now... "My parents know exactly where I am right now so you better not kidnap me!" "Shit, the kid is right, movin' on!"
garrett_8614 14
You're taking that a little too literal. What I mean is, if you tell your parents for example you're about to go to Starbucks or something, and on the way you get kidnapped. After you don't come home and your parents assume something happen, they can tell the police you were on your way or at Starbucks, which could help in locating where you could possibly be, or who took you. No one said that by telling your parents where you are that you won't get kidnapped, but the more you know, the better in these types of situations.

So who's the guy who talked you into it? Good girls don't do things like this without incentive.
ChenEighty 20
Does there have to be a guy involved? Natural rebellious lure can be enough.

#13 is right I have sneaked out before because of a guy and also because of my friends.
PenguinBitch 44
Last time I sneaked out with my friends to an amusement park, our parents got abducted by aliens.
MrConcise 35
I think three boys talked you into it. Nick, Sheen, and Carl?

I used to sneak out just to be alone

Practice makes perfect when it comes to crime
littleteapot 21
What's the crime?
RiseAboveSociety 3
why try to tell them to practice committing crimes??

You have to build up to be a rebel.... next time try something smaller.... like not putting the cap back on the toothpaste.

Then graduate to leaving the toilet seat up. No one will ever suspect you because you're a girl.
igive 29
Whenever I take a massive dump at work I leave the toilet seat up so they think it was a guy. I flush of course, but the smell....
DoubleDosexo 12
I'm pretty sure guys don't shit with the seat up #33
igive 29
Still, thwarts the attention from me.

Next time just use the front door, it's much less embarrassing
