Today, my boyfriend was coming home after a month of being away. When I heard him knock on the door, I rushed to open it and jumped into his arms for a hug. It wasn't him; it was the mailman. FML

Haha I'm OP. Well our door is solid so i couldn't see him. He was supposed to be there soon, so naturally I thought it was him. The mailman looked flustered for a moment (he was an awesome old guy) and then he smiled saying "Wow someone is excited about getting the mail!"

The mailman is relieved it wasn't a pitbull and aroused that it was you. =]

That is what the peep hole is for. So you look out of it to see who is there

Mail carriers have one of the most socially isolating jobs. Your good deed for the day. ;)

What mailman knocks on the door?

UPS, Fed Ex, any other person delivering a package that won't fit in a mailbox.
