Today, I saw a lady who had fainted. I ran over to help, only to find out that she was unstable and had a knife in her hand. She was pointing it at me, and growled threateningly every time I tried to move away. It took the cops an hour to defuse the situation. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I saw a woman being mugged. I ran up to help and pushed the guy off of her. She then punched me in the face and called the cops because she was, "just living out a fantasy" and I'm, "a lunatic for trying to help." FML
Today, an old lady fell in the street, and I rushed to help her. As I tried to help her to her feet, she started screaming, "She pushed me! She pushed me!" I froze up in shock, and ended up being chased by some guy who thought I'd attacked her. FML
Today, I woke up at my girlfriend's house. She was staring at me, holding a knife over my face. She ran away, giggling. FML
Today, I was in the middle of walking home when I saw an old woman trying to get away from what looked like a mugger. I go over and try to help her out and get the man off of her, which was successful. Turns out she was having a heart attack and the man was a doctor. FML
Today, I was going into a store and saw a woman roughly handling a screaming toddler. I kept walking, until I heard the kid scream, "Help! You’re not my mommy!” I called 911 and stood behind the car to keep her from taking off. The cops arrived to see me fending off blows from a very pissed off grandma. FML
Today, I bumped into a lady, apologised and tried to continue on. She screamed assault and tried to citizen's arrest me. I've got better things to do, so I ignored her but she latched onto my leg like a toddler. I ended up dragging this insane woman up the street until she finally let go. FML
Today, I witnessed an elderly lady getting mugged. I ran over to the guy mugging her and offered him the money in my wallet in return for him leaving her alone. The old lady snatched my money and ran away with the mugger. What the hell just happened? FML
Today, I was out jogging, when I saw a girl fall off her bike and start crying. I ran over to see if she was hurt. Apparently her neighbour thought I was trying to kidnap her, because he ran out with a baseball bat and threatened to beat me to death if I didn't get lost. FML
Today, someone tried to mug me. I panicked and ran. As they chased me with their knife out, I heard a slip and a shout behind me but kept running. Six blocks later I was spotted, arrested, and held for questioning by the police. The mugger fell, stabbed themselves, and told a cop that I did it. FML
Today, I tried to propose to my girlfriend, but I was so nervous that I had a panic attack, fainted and split my head open. My girlfriend then fainted at the sight of the blood. An onlooker had to call an ambulance for both of us. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

This is quite possibly the most twisted FML I've seen for a long time.

this is a situation that is a legitimate fml without much humor to it. a good dead that does not go unpunished in a really scary way. after the jokers explaination of why he uses a knife to kill people, it would be a nightmare to find yourself on the receiving end of the blade. truly FYL OP. you deserve ALL OF THE COOKIES!

I'd honestly be very scared if this happened to me. I kept waiting for it to be a joke. I wonder how the police diffused the situation...

Taser, and kicking. Lots of kicking. To the face. Don't you watch their videos on YouTube?

I can relate to that OP, yesterday a girl got hit in the face by some guy, and I went over and asked if she was alright, and the 6ft4 bulky man who hit her came back and went full speed at me shouting shit out me, and i was running away and I went to go down the escalator but the right way side was closed so i went down the one coming up and busted my ankle at least 3 times running down it, now its gonna take a month at least to heal, and I had just gotten back into gym after not going for 3 months after having tonsilitis, glandular, and breaking my wrist consecutively..

He didn't die. There's his reward.

Maybe OP's a bodysnatcher and now the only one who can save us is Haldol'ed up in a locked psych ward.... Or something.

I hope you didn't get hurt and she got the help she needs.

She should be thrown in a straight jacket in a mental hospital. She isn't capable of living in modern society.

Well, that really isn't something you'd expect to happen when attempting to help somebody. I'm sorry, OP.

At least you were nice enough to try and help in the first place.

Sorry it happened to you. Don't stop helping people - good energy will get back to you someday hopefully.

Not dying, as a result of goodwill from helping someone is supposed to be a bonus?

Doesn't she know psychotic zombie-like, bath salt induced freaks are like totally 2012?

Sounds like your typical Bollywood drama film :)
