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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was was leaving the library when I noticed an elderly woman being mugged. I was about to leave on my bike, but promptly went to help her. After I managed to scare off the mugger, I helped her to her car. As I was heading back to my bike, I notice the mugger riding off on it. 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, 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 saw an elderly woman in need of help of crossing a street. I helped her across. On the way she just about fell and held onto me to keep from hitting the ground. After she left on her bus I reached for my wallet. It was gone. I had just been robbed by a 70 year old. FML
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, I was walking down the street, when a little old lady bumped into me and fell over. I helped her up and she thanked me for being "such a nice young man". It was only an hour later as I was in line at the store that I realized she'd pickpocketed my wallet. FML
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
Today, I saw a bad car wreck. I pulled over and ran to the car to find an unconscious man behind the wheel. Another car pulled up, and a guy got out. I was relieved to have help, until, to my horror, he started trying to hit on me. I was stuck with him until the ambulance arrived. FML
Today, I saw a little old lady trying to cross the street. I went over and tried to help her. Turned out she was actually just a really short young woman. As soon as I took her arm, she screamed in front of everyone and accused me of trying to molest her. FML
Today, I was on the job as an ambulance driver, I got a call about a man who claimed he'd had a heart attack. When I got to the house, it turned out the man was fine. I did however manage to hit a dog on the way there in fear of the man dying. FML

Did anyone else notice that #11 and #19 is the same person, so he's an ass in number 11 and telling himself not to be an ass in number 19? Weird.

@10. OMFG. I seriously do hope you get robbed in a VERY public place and absolutely NOBODY helps you (and end up losing a couple hundred dollars or so). That is what you will get for being such a bad person.

Why are #11 and #19 the same people? Hmm... Anyways, wow @ the people saying to mind your own business... Would you want someone to mind their own business when you're getting mugged?

Why are people clicking YDI? You didn't know what was going on. Hope she's alright now.

to everyone saying to mind his own business and that he is stupid: if you saw a man putting a lot of force onto a woman who seemed scared.. if you had the power&strength to help that woman, wouldnt you do that too? yes the man was a doctor but regardless .. this persons heart was in the right place..if this was on LML about someone helping a woman who got mugged..how many of you would have told him to mind his own business.. just my 2 cents .

Don't always be so quick to assume unless she's screaming help.

#11: And the guy trying to help her was NOT a good samaritan who was minding someone else's business? Following your logic, the doctor should not had helped her out in the first place...
