Today, for the first time in over a year, my mother actually called me. I excitedly picked up the phone. All I heard was rustling; her purse dialed me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I finally had a phone call after a week of nothing. It was my mother. It was by accident. FML
Today, my phone rang for the first time in four days. It was my mom. She dialed the wrong number. FML
Today, I called my mom for the first time in a few weeks, just to chat because I miss her. When she picked up, the first thing she said was, "Why are you calling? What's wrong? Do you have swine flu??" When I told her that I didn't, and I just wanted to chat, she hung up. FML
Today, I got a call from this girl I really like. Surprised, as I never get anything other than a text from her, I answered. All I heard were rustling sounds. She had pocket dialed me. FML
Today, I called my mom to tell her that I finally got my period. There was an awkward pause. She was at work. I was on speakerphone. FML
Today, I talked to my mom about hanging out with her. She got out her phone to schedule an appointment. FML
Today, I called my mother to say hi. She spent a whole hour and a half complaining about how I never call her, bawling and calling me "a waste of human flesh." I call her at least once a week. FML
Today, while I was sitting in the living room with my mother, my phone rang. She immediately exclaimed, "I'm not calling you! Why is it going off?" She was serious. My own mother doesn't believe people talk to me. FML
Today, my father called me for the first time in two weeks since I moved away. Excited, I answered the phone. It was a mistake. He thought he'd called my sister. FML
Today, I went on a date, and halfway through I started getting nonstop calls from “Mom” on my phone. Annoyed, I silenced them. Later, I checked my voicemail. It was actually my mom calling from the ER because she had slipped and broken her ankle. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

How about, you know, calling her? Of course its little different if she's mad at you for some reason, but still...

DUDES... none of you have read this fml properly- OP did not say that he has'nt spoken to his mother for a year... jus that SHE has never bothered to call OP. He/she probably feels neglected.

I agree with #1 & #5 because at least the purse still loves you.. just why don't you call her if she wont call you? like jeez, YDI for not calling your own mom and FYL for your mom hating you, at least... the purse loves you. ;] all i can say... best of luck.

i agree with 37..i mean it sucks that your mom doesn't call you but a lot of ppl would be happy not to be bothered. and i mean, if you miss her that much, you can just call her!

i posted this FML I'd like to thank the few people that had the open mind to see the possibility that maybe i didn't give all the info in this FML. I have called my mother over 20 times in the past 2 months- she never picks up.
