Today, I tried to sneakily leave my boyfriend's house at 3 a.m. without his parents knowing. I had a flat tire. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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
Today, I went to my boyfriend's house so that he could break up with me. I went out to my car to leave only to discover that all of the wheels had been stolen. Even the spare. I had to spend the rest of the day with my ex-boyfriend finding a way to get my car home. FML
Today, my boyfriend sneaked into my room, not knowing I wasn't home. It would have been great, except my dad went in my room to put laundry away. 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 got a flat tire. The spare was also flat, so I had no other choice but to walk home. I got to my house and realized I'd left the front door key and garage clicker in my car 5 miles away. 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 sneaked out of work early. I tripped over my own feet while walking up to my car. As I fell, I managed to hit the panic button on my car keys, setting off my car alarm while I lay flat on the ground in the parking lot. FML
Today, while my boyfriend was sneaking out before my parents awoke, he slipped on some ice and fell on their car. The alarm went off. FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend because he has anger issues. Tonight, my tires were slashed. FML
Today, I left home to go to work, only to find that my car had a flat tyre. No problem, I thought, I'll just change it. That's when I discovered that I'd left my spare tyre at the mechanic's last time I had a flat. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Why sneak out? Are you trying to hide something? (Start of every fight)

Just change the flat and leave. Every woman should be able to change a tire by herself. It's not hard to do, and it's a part of being self sufficient. My dad wouldn't let me get my license until I could change out my tire, change my own oil, and replace my own battery.

#1 I think she was trying to sneak out not because of her boyfriend but rather his parents did not know she was there

#5 Think you missed the point there buddy.

Why has 5 been downvoted? This seems like the obvious answer to me. She went to his house late at night while his parents were asleep and then snuck out a bit later on.

Unless I've missed some reference to something

Pretty sure 1 is making a joke that sneaking around and hiding things generally starts fights in relationships. It's pretty obvious that OP was trying to sneak away from the parents, since it says it right in the FML...

His parents probably let the air out of your tire. I'd guess it was his mom.

With so little info given, I had to guess at the details.

And it was with a switchblade. At approximately 11:56 pm. She was wearing a red coat and black pants.

maybe they didn't want him escaping lol
Mf2307 15
thats true too

But wouldn't they have already seen your car anyway?
sweetpotato301 7
Maybe she came after they'd gone to sleep. Or maybe she parked further away.

Did you make it out successfully? Mission accomplished?

Why every woman? Surely it's a good skill for everyone to have
Ash_U78 12
Yes, absolutely everyone should! I only said woman because A) I am one and B) where I live I am surrounded by women who like to play the helpless card who have to have the "big strong man" do things for them. I generally just hate that as an excuse for a lack of self-sufficiency.

Why the hell should I be able to change my oil? The time for an oil change doesn't appear out of nowhere and normally it's done at a car repair shop, at least where I live.
Ash_U78 12
Your right, it's not a necessity, but it does cost a lot less. Where I live an oil change will run you about $35-$45 dollars. I can do it myself for $20. Call me frugal, but to me it's worth the savings.

$20.00? That's cheap. Please tell me filters included...
babs22291 15
In Ohio where I live, I can take my vehicle to the dealership and have it changed for under $20, with new filters. How or why does it cost so much?

That's called a Mission Impossible Challenge.

clearly someone stole your car and purposely left it at his house to frame you :)

So, his parents didn't notice the car parked at they're house? Or let alone hear it pulling in?
sweetpotato301 7
She might have parked further away and walked to the house specifically because of that risk.

Or she could have been invited over, and the parents went to bed fully trusting she'd leave at a decent time?
jbivens1992 17
Haha, something similar happened to me when I was 17 except I was trying to sneak down the stairs to leave and ended up falling down the entire flight, finally crashing into a table at the bottom and breaking his mothers favorite vase. Also needed 13 stitches. I'd take the flat tire over that shit any day!
