Today, I got a coworker at my new job in trouble, because he kept harassing me and asking me out, even after I clearly told him I wasn't interested. Turns out he's very popular around here, and everyone now hates me for being a trouble-maker and not "taking a compliment." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that the co-worker I have been dating and falling for is the same co-worker that had been spreading rumors about me and getting me in trouble with my boss. FML
Today, after many years of being single, I finally worked up the courage to ask my coworker out. He said no and gave me "fair warning" that he's going to report me for sexual harassment. FML
Today, I got a new job. This would've been a good thing, but apparently, the person I'm replacing was very well-liked around my workplace. All of my co-workers hate me now for replacing someone who I don't even know. FML
Today, I confronted my coworker, who I had a crush on, for lying to me. He’d told me he was gay when I asked him out. He’s now dating another coworker of mine who’s a woman. He took this up with my boss, and I was written up for “creating a hostile work environment.” FML
Today, my boss threatened to write me up, after I made a slightly rude joke about a coworker everyone hates. A while later, a colleague told me the same joke. Turns out my boss had gone around telling it to everyone else and taking all the credit. FML
Today, I reported the girl I like’s new boyfriend to be trespassed from our workplace for being disruptive. I’m sick of him coming in and bringing her lunch and acting lovey dovey. My plan successfully worked, he is no longer welcome on the premises, but now half the office hates me. FML
Today, I'm confused. My incredibly hot coworkers thought I was repulsive for the past two years, but now that they've heard through the grapevine that I'm in a serious relationship, they won't leave me alone. I can't get through the day without being hit on. I hate it. FML
Today, I asked one of the girls at work out on a date. She responded by filing a harassment complaint. Now, I can't speak to her at all without being written up. FML
Today, I overheard a co-worker tell the new guy not to talk to me because I'm a bitch. Apparently, she didn't like it when I told her two weeks ago that she had a drinking problem, which was affecting her work ethic. FML
Today, I found out that a new coworker was spreading false rumours about me. I confronted her. and she basically ran to management and said I intimidated her even though other colleagues discredited her claims. She now continues spreading the rumours with her fake intimidation charges on top of it all. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That sucks OP. The popular douches never take "no" very well.

sexual harassment

Don't worry about it. Who cares about his popularity if you don't want to go out with him you don't want to go out with him. Perhaps you should have agreed with a date but told him just the dinner and whatever else and nothing more?

No still means no. Not your fault OP!

Pretty much exactly the same thing happened to a friend of mine. She had a really rough time. They bullied her constantly luckily she had a few mature co-workers. We had her back and made sure she didn't get hurt too bad.

I'd like to know exactly what you did to "get him in trouble"... It sounds like you may have deserved it, even if he is a bit of a dick.

Uh...obviously they made a complaint to their boss. Hence the "getting in trouble". Though I don't know how the OP "deserved it". Nobody deserves to be harassed by a co-worker, and nobody deserves to be alienated just because they stood up to the "popular" guy.

Thanks for proving to us all that teenagers really are ignorant. No, seriously. Moron.

What is it high school? It annoys me when guys can't take no for an answer.

Your co-workers need to grow the **** up and learn that people aren't always as they seem. They can be awesome to your face but be a dick head to others. Also your harasser is a complete wimp. If he needs to whine about how you said no to his friends to gain the balls to ask you out then **** him.

You may want to revise and re-word your last point.

You did the right thing by reporting him, sexual harassment is never ok. Check your company's policy on retaliation - your coworkers could be in violation. It could also be said that they are creating a hostile work environment.

People like that think they can use their charm and popularity to get away with anything. You did the right thing by reporting him.
