Today, I went on a field trip with some people from school. I'm currently confined to a wheelchair, so I had to rely on my sister to get around. She eventually went off with her friends, assuming that the people nearby would keep me company. Five minutes later, they'd all left me. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I worked up the confidence to go to the mall alone for the first time since being confined to a wheelchair. It didn't even take 20 minutes before some teenager grabbed my wheelchair and tried to race me around, all while his friends watched and laughed. FML
Today, I was chaperoning for my 8-year-old sister's class in school. The bus ride was an hour long, so several people didn't make it to the bathroom in time. Unfortunately, one of them was me. FML
Today, it was our class field trip. I got five dollars from ten different people because they wanted me to sit away from them. FML
Today, I walked around town by myself for four hours because I was too ashamed to tell my parents that I have no friends willing to spend time with me. FML
Today, I was left at home alone while my friends went on a trip to Paris I paid for. FML
Today, instead of having my friends come pick me up, my dad drove me over to visit them. He insisted on walking me up to the door, hugging me goodbye, and making sure my friends were appropriate enough to hang out with. I'm in college. FML
Today, my family and I drove to a mall an hour away. We split up, and I went into a store by myself. A little later, I get a call from my brother asking me where I am. They had already left to go home and didn't notice me missing from the car. They were already halfway home. FML
Today, at the age of 16, I'm recovering from hip surgery. My friends took me out to the movies to cheer me up. They thought it would be hilarious to steal my crutches and leave me stranded and alone in the mall, multiple times. It wasn't. FML
Today, I finally had a chance to get outside after receiving shrapnel to my leg. My crutches had not yet arrived so I didn't want to risk it, but my buddies said they had my back. We went to the seaside and I sat down as they say they'd be right back. It started to rain and everyone forgot me. I can stand, but not walk. FML
Today, I went to the airport with my mom, who requested a wheelchair for me, since I have a broken leg. I'm 24. Embarrassed, I insisted I push myself around, instead of an airline assistant doing it. A few seconds later, I crash into the same airline assistant, who then falls back into my lap. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Not if you're a true introvert :D

12- seriously? OP is in quite an upsetting situation I don't think that's an appropriate "joke"
Girreth 7
14 - Firstly, it's not a joke. Introverts prefer solitude. Secondly - If it were a joke, then understand that it's a joke, not a dick. Don't take it so hard.
I_iz_B_a_troll 24
How is that even a joke? I was replying to a comment that said it was sad to be alone, I was just saying that that's not always the case.. It is for me, I hate being alone and I can totally relate to the OP, as this would probably happen to me as well. :P don't get your panties in a bunch over nothing, hun. :) I guess 18 beat me to it, sorry guys.
CrewBoy 10
14, please remove the large stick from your rectum, shut the hell up, read a dictionary, and then for safety read a book on how to take a joke. My god, woman. 18 and 21 beat me to it.... ****.

I don't think it's sad. It's how I prefer to be 9 times out of 10. Maybe that's just me, though

I was going to make a jocular post with an exaggeratedly annoyed reply to 14, and say that the rest beat me to it, but then I got to 28 and saw that he really did beat me to it.
BulldogHoops 14
28- I've seen two of your comments, and I'm concerned. There was this abomination of the English language, and then the one where you hoped someone went to hell and had a child molester's **** attached to their mouth.

did any one else read #24 comment as 0mg as "zero milligram" at first too?

74 - I remember that too. Partly because it was in my reply thread. I can't decide if he's Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde or a really weird type of troll... with tourettes.

Gotta love family.
gc327072 31
As a fellow handicap, I know that feel. Then I got a powerchair! :D
SammyS2012 21
I've never had a power chair, but when I use the manual wheelchair, and a family member is pushing me in a theme park or something, we usually mess around with it. We're immature, I know, but there's only so much you can do while sitting in it... It gets boring.
gc327072 31
36- you'd be surprised just how fast 6 mph feels. Now all I need are some blue shells...

maybe one day - you'll get your wish and "get" to use one all the time! every time someone says that to me it makes me want to punch them (I don't but I REALLY want to)

Can't you roll wheelchairs by yourself too? Or is that only certain kinds? But yeah, that still sucks. That sounds like something my old friends would do...
annie_nk 23
Maybe there were stairs. I thought the same thing.

Or maybe his arms are paralyzed

100, he could have software where he can talk, and it types out what he says.
ksks1234 33
I think there are different kinds. I have seen wheelchairs that have four small wheels, where you would be unable to roll yourself; maybe it is that kind of wheelchair. The op also mentioned "recently being confined to a wheelchair", maybe they do not have the upper-body strength to roll himself around all day.
RockN 10
100- well its not impossible :P
WTFisthiscrap 6
Manual wheelchairs you can roll by yourself. But I have a neuro-muscular disease and I'm not strong enough to roll one myself. I have a power chair, but if it messes up or if my battery dies - I have to rely on people to push me. And for me, that's not the least bit fun. People who push wheelchairs (who don't usually do it all the time) don't know to watch for things like huge cracks, bumps, holes, etc. in sidewalks either.

Run them over.

Yes because that will totally change their minds about not pushing her.

Add rockets to the wheelchair?

Chain you sister to the chair. Or get her a shock collar.

Try to strike up conversations with people from the group, you're bound to make some friends.
kyliebear 15
"Five minutes later, they all left me." Note: they ALL left her. You can't make friends with people who aren't there and she certainly can't move much.
annie_nk 23
That's horrible! "Oh I'll just leave my responsibilities to some other random person." I hope karma bites her big time.
Posthuman 26
Karma doesn't bite. Unless it comes in the form of a zombie prostitute. Then it could...
annie_nk 23
Well OP's username is left4dead lol
dcg1375 7
OP says they are "currently" confined to a wheelchair. Which suggests that this is not the norm. Not all, but most people in wheelchairs have arm use and can drive themselves. So maybe OP just likes the attention and being pushed around in the chair? We don't know and won't because we don't know why OP is "currently" in a wheelchair.
annie_nk 23
61 - Stairs. Not everywhere has elevators.
green2go 14
Some wheel chairs you can't drive yourself like the ones in the ER
laden_swallow09 35
Those get expensive.
