Today, I picked up my laundry from the wash-and-fold and proceeded to put everything away. I noticed a hand towel that wasn't mine and made a mental note to return it; turned out they'd given me someone else's boxers as well. My boyfriend doesn't believe me. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to pick up my laundry from the communal machines in my apartment building. When I got there, all my clothes were neatly folded on top of the dryer. I was impressed, until I realized half of the pile wasn’t mine. I'd been carrying someone else’s underwear up to my apartment. FML
Today, I found a pair of women's underwear in the laundry that wasn't mine. I confronted my boyfriend about it. They were his. FML
Today, my boyfriend came round to drop off some underwear, which I'd left at his house. Not all of what he brought was mine. FML
Today, I was washing some clothes in the laundry room at my apartment complex. I went back an hour later, passed my neighbor on the way in, and moved my clothes to the dryer. I just brought them back from the dryer, and all my underwear are missing. FML
Today, I did my laundry at a laundromat. When I came back to get my clothes, I found an elderly man wearing my favorite Joy Division t-shirt, and he refused to give it back because he said it was his. I spent a few minutes arguing with him, before realizing I had grabbed someone else's clothes too. FML
Today, I found ladies knee-high socks that weren't mine. I don't even own a pair of knee-high socks. After bickering back and forth with my boyfriend, he said, "Actually now that you mention it, I thought they were yours and I put them there." FML
Today, I went to the laundromat. I put a load in the dryer and walked away to check on my other load. When I came back, I saw a homeless man putting his dirty, wet underwear in the dryer with my clean clothes. FML
Today, my boyfriend texted me, asking if I had left my underwear over at his place. No, no I didn't. They weren't mine. Awesome. FML
Today, I returned a friend's jacket after borrowing it. I made sure to wash it and keep it clean. When he went to put it on, a pair of my granny panties fell out of the sleeve. FML
Today, I noticed some of my things in my slob of a roommate's piles of clothes. I found six pairs of my underwear that had gone missing. Turns out she hasn't done laundry recently so my underwear drawer was her own personal Victoria's Secret. I hadn't even worn a pair yet. All six were stained. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

If he knows that you just came from doing laundry, he should have enough sense to know that things get mixed up. A girl once put her clothes in the washer when my clothes were still in there. Mistakes happen. If you haven't given him any other reason to not trust you, he should believe you.

So… you come back from doing laundry and your boyfriend doesn't believe it's someone else's? That's a huge lack of trust.

Hahaha that's too funny. But yeah, it does sound like you cheated and are trying to get away with it.

Just bring your boyfriend to the laundary place and have someone back you up?

Next time just air your dirty laundry instead of letting him get his panties in a twist.

Hmm... I am assuming you put them away & when he went to retrieve a pair, that's how he discovered them? Because had he been with you whilst you were putting them away, he should just know you're telling the truth by common sense..

OP knew they weren't her BF's from the sound of it- it seems more like she put up the items that belong to them, then left the ones that aren't her's or her BF's in order to call the place. So it seems like OP's BF found them either in the basket or sitting on a counter, couch, or bed, and assumed the worst.

That's sad if he doesn't believe you

Man, it's kinda depressing how many of these kinds of FMLs get posted...So many people getting treated poorly or shown distrust by their partners. Where is the trust and loyalty in this world? Sorry to hear about that, OP. Your boyfriend needs to tone down the jealousy and realize that innocent mistakes happen.

Did he not see the plastic bag from the laundry mat that had your folded clothes. Also why were there other clothes with your clothes is seam like they mix your with someone's else or they are just really bad at checking the washing machine and dryer
