Today, I was at a Christmas party when I noticed someone had taken all of the cash I had from out of my wallet. It was a family gathering. I'm related to the culprit but have no idea who it is. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out my ex got invited to our Christmas Party. I also found out that she got much more presents and money from my family than I did. FML
Today, I enjoyed a lovely family dinner, but my irritating grandma kept trying to buy my purse off me, and kept picking it up to look at it. When I got home I realized all my cash and cigarettes were gone. FML
Today, I was working at the Soup Kitchen handing out special christmas dinners to the homeless. At the end of the day I collected my things and went home. It was only then I discovered that my wallet, phone, pager and (for some reason) my glasses has been stolen. FML
Today, I was missing $20 from my wallet, so I decided to ask my sister if she had taken it. Her response? "That reminds me, I need to borrow another 50." She has a job. That was my Christmas money. FML
Today, I discovered my mom has been using my credit card to buy everyone's Christmas presents. FML
Today, I went with my sister to her company Christmas party. They had a gift raffle, my number was called and I won $25 for a local restaurant. A few moments later, the manager came over and said, "You don't work here? You can't have that" and took it from me. FML
Today, the police called because someone had turned in my wallet that was stolen. I happily drove home only to find that my house had been robbed and ransacked. FML
Today, I was leaving work when I realized I had forgotten my bag on my desk. As I went back to get it, I overheard my co-workers talking about "last night's office party." I wasn't invited. FML
Today, I spent the holiday with my husband's big family. They suggested we take a family picture, but two people were purposely left out of it. I was one of them. FML
Today, none of my family was at home. Turns out my one of my aunts was having a birthday party and all my relatives went, but nobody told me because they don’t like me coming around. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I would make a general announcement that there is a thief in your midst. I wouldn't be surprised if a manhunt started and everyone is searched.

#1 The Grinch who stole Christmas. All jokes aside though that's messed up. Sorry Op.

I have family who once asked another part of the family not be let in to a funeral. Do not underestimate the horribleness of people. (Or their stupidity, or audacity....but it is understandable for brilliance.)

Don't think because they're family they won't hurt you. To answer your question, my brother. My brother would most definitely steal some cash if he has the chance.

well do people in your family bring dates or bf/gfs to your family gathering? I trust to leave my money around my family at these kind of functions but not the assholes they bring here.

This looks like a job for me.

Isn't it sad you can't even trust your own family? I've been there OP, I know your pain.

That really sucks! I presume you have a video camera somewhere in your house? Hope you find the thief, OP

OP was AT a party not having a party.

Yep, because everyone has video cameras in their house....

People really do suck sometimes. Sorry OP. I know that doesn't bring your wallet back though
whiteboy896 9
OP lost their money in the wallet, not the wallet itself...

Yes, thank goodness the actual wallet wasn't stolen. That would be so much worse! >.>

Why was your wallet laying about? Sorry it happened though.

Probably because they thought it'd be safe to leave it around family members. When we have family parties at my house I don't lock away the valuables... It's family.

But don't guys usually have their wallets in their pants pockets? It's not like a purse. EDIT: Whoops. Didn't check gender first. Now I see OP is female.

Who the **** keeps their wallets in their pockets when they're in their own home, regardless of gender of whether they have pockets or not? Since it's family, especially, they should be able to feel at ease with their belongings out. I've an aunt that leaves thousands of dollars in cash sitting in a drawer, which she trusts that I will not take any when I am over. Seriously, morals and values are disappearing....

Even if they did have their wallet in their pocket, some people ate really good at picking pockets. I know my siblings mess around with me and will take stuff out of my purse and I won't notice sometimes.

I think almost everyone have that one family member who steals smh
DJisHere11 19
I wouldn't let anyone leave until they empty out their pockets. If they won't there hiding something and then that's your suspect.

Plus, it was cash that was stolen, so OP has no way to claim that this was their cash.

#38 - Write your initials on your cash, and problem solved. Too bad we can't go back in time and do that.

A family gathering is the last place you would except this to happen.Stealing from your family is a ******* spineless thing to do. I hope you find him/her OP.
