Today, I was detained for trying to "illegally enter" my house, all because my parents forgot to tell me they were being evicted. FML
College_Grad tells us more.
OP here. I just graduated in May and have been working 2 jobs (one full time in my field and one part time for extra cash) since a week after I graduated. I am almost never home. I am moving to my own apartment at the end of August. I paid rent, car payments, and utilities to my parents every week because I'm a big girl, planning my own family. I have no idea what happened exactly, but someone called the police because I tried to unlock the front door after I came home from work. Everything is ok. We're ok.

I didn't say I blamed OP, I was saying you can't blame whoever detained them for making that mistake.

I think the op was blaming their parents not the person who detained them.

True, but still F his L. That sucks that his parents couldn't keep it together by having a roof over his head; it also sucks that the didn't have the balls to tell him about it.

It never was your house if you did not own it!

well technically you may be correct. And the Technical sense at least. But a home is their house. Whether they rent or own. And it is not for you to say whether or not it was never your house.. because even though I may not on my home I consider it my house. It's where I live. And as long as you pay any type rent it is your house

I'm curious how they managed to go through the full process of being evicted without you noticing anything weird. Were you at camp and came home to that mess?
Ichiya 29
maybe the name college grad can help...

Well shiiiiiit. Did you encounter new occupants? Sorry to hear that OP

Just explain them why you entered thus not knowing that your parents were evicted.

Did you come home after being away for a while?

No, her parents just left her all alone and didn't tell her anything. You see it was all a practical joke to see how long it would take her to notice they're gone.

Well, the name of the poster does say College Grad so im guessing he came from college.
