Today, I went to the movies. After it was over I got up and noticed a designer purse sitting on the ground in the back row. I opened it to look for anything that could give me a address so I could return it. The owner came back, assumed I was robbing her, and punched me in the nose. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found a purse in the school bathroom. When I looked inside, there was an iPod along with some other expensive stuff in it. I took it to the office so the right owner would get it back. The owner passed me in the hall on the way there; she freaked out and punched me in the face. FML
Today, my girlfriend asked me to hold her purse while shopping. All of a sudden, a robber punched me in the face and took her purse. She started crying about her purse and told me to get off the ground because I was embarrassing her. FML
Today, I was walking through a rough part of town, when a woman screamed that I'd stolen her bag. I was tackled to the ground by a large guy, who then gave my bag to her. FML
Today, I was working as a cashier and a woman brought up a suitcase. As I was ringing her up I checked inside like I'm supposed to and I very jokingly say, "Look at all the stuff you're stealing." She laughed nervously then hit me in the head with her heavy purse before running out of the store. FML
Today, while on my way to the movies, I stopped at a gas station to pick up candy so I could avoid the high prices at the movies. The guy who tore my ticket asked for my purse, confiscated my candy, and then kicked me out of the movie theater. That guy was my boyfriend. FML
Today, I went to the movies with my girlfriend. As I started putting my arm around her, I hit her in the face. FML
Today, I was at the store when I saw that a cart in the checkout line next to me was starting to roll away and the owner hadn't noticed. I tried to help by reaching out to stop the cart from moving, but when the owner saw me with the cart, she began to hit me for trying to steal her purse. FML
Today, I was walking down the street when a man stole my purse. He then opened the purse, threw up in it, and gave it back. FML
Today, I was trying on some clothes in the store's changing room, when someone reached under the door and grabbed my purse, shoes, and pants. FML
Today, I stopped to replace a stuffed bear that had fallen from a small memorial for a girl killed nearby. Her mom happened to walk by and thought I was stealing it. She hit me with her purse. FML

I hope you got to explain what had happened. I hate it when all you try to do is help and people are just rude in return. And I was number 600 to push the "it definatly is" button

Admit it, you were looking for her cash. YDI. Any normal person would simply take it to management without digging through it. She shouldn't have punched you, but you shouldn't have opened it.

Do you really think the lady would have reacted any differently if she had seen the OP taking her purse? She'd still assume the OP was a thief, rather than someone who was trying to be a good person and taking the purse to someone who could help.

"Any normal person"? I'm glad I spend my time around "abnormal" people who would be like the OP, caring enough to try to reunite a person with her purse. You leave it to customer service and the person NEVER gets it. (That's the way it is where I work)

TBH, that's not an unfair assumption to make. She forgot her purse in a public place, and found some stranger digging through it when she got back. Were I in her place, I'd probably assume you were stealing my stuff too. You didn't deserve it. Just another example of "No good deed goes unpunished"

FYL for being punched just for trying to do something good. However, in the future, the proper thing would have been to wait a few minutes to see if the owner returned, and then, if not, to bring the purse to an employee or someone official to take care of it.

That will teach her to leave her stuff unattended in a public area. What an idiot.

Sorry you got punched out by a waste of skin. Stupid violent people make the world a sad place. Of course, smart violent people also make the world a sad place but that's another FML.

What were you doing in the back row? Surely you wouldn't have noticed the purse if you were making out like I see every 1 out of 3 times I go to the movies... you must be one of the other 2 that go by themselves... lol

Maybe the OP isn't 14 and doesn't need to make out at the movies.

It doesn't pay to be nice anymore. People are too judgmental nowadays. If that had been me, I would have decked her, and taken the purse just because she was a bitch.

A perfect example of why people don't help each other any more. Sad really.
