Today, my daughter was scared to go to the bathroom because she thought there was a person behind the shower curtain. There actually was a person behind the shower curtain. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I realized that all the times I checked behind the shower curtain before peeing didn't prepare me for what to do if someone was actually there. FML
Today, I was getting out of the shower and realized I’d forgotten to lock the bathroom lock. I heard someone coming towards the door and panicked. I hid behind the curtain and tried to stay completely still, but my dad walked in, saw me standing there like a statue, and just said, “Oh, erm, I’ll come back later.” FML
Today, I walked into my near pitch-black bathroom and saw a person staring back at me. I woke my whole family up with my screams. The person was my reflection. FML
Today, despite my fear of using public restrooms, I was forced to anyway to avoid my bladder exploding. I was finally getting over it when someone stuck their head under the stall to "see if someone's in there". I'm scared more now than I was before. FML
Today, I woke up to a blood-curdling scream from the bathroom. I jumped out of bed in panic and rushed into the bathroom, only to see my sister limping around in the nude. She'd just jumped out of the shower because someone had flushed the toilet downstairs. FML
Today, my daughter called for me to come into the bathroom. Turns out the tummy ache she'd been complaining of was actually parasites in her digestive tract. I could swear they were looking at me from the toilet. FML
Today, I was peeing in the shower when my girlfriend suddenly pulled open the shower curtain in an attempt to scare me. Startled, I quickly spun around and peed all over her dress. FML
Today, as I went to the bathroom in a port-a-potty at a park, I forgot to lock the door. A little girl opens the door and then slams it right away. As she walked away I heard her say "no, there's a man in there". I'm a woman. FML
Today, I was trying to sleep when I saw a head looming from the darkness with no eyes and a mouth open like a silent scream. I just froze and pissed myself. It was my daughter wanting to cuddle with us. Alas, the bed was wet, so she got put back in her bed, while we had to share the sofa downstairs. FML
Today, I had to listen to my daughter’s explosive diarrhea while I watched TV. When she came out of the bathroom, she went white as a sheet. Apparently she thought she was alone. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Psycho taught me well, ALWAYS check behind the curtain!
MattM95 16
People always call me paranoid. Well I am but I have my reasons!
PotterHead_DH 26
If people leave their shower curtains open, they wouldn't have to check behind it. They would have a full view as soon as they enter the bathroom. That's what I do.

The creases in the curtain when it's open can cause it to mold, so I try to keep mine closed.

Being paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you . the "they're" part is what confirms it or denies it ;).

obtrice, the victim was behind the curtain in psycho

26 - psycho had taught me to have someone else check the shower curtain.

Most people leave the curtain closed so it can dry properly, but I can't stand seeing it closed. That's why I always buy a clear shower curtain.

Is it a black guy?

Not all black people are bad. Just like not all white people are good. :(
B4rn3yST1NSON 15
what about purple ones ? I heard they're completely safe :o

correction, we all suck equally

Yeah, if there was ever an FML that needed more information, this is it.
brandoneyez1 25
Yeah definitely more to this story! Did cops get involved? Was it a prank, or a pervert... So many ways this could have turned out.
VonBlitzkrieg 27
You could basically pick an ending out of a hat. So many options. Personally, I think it could have been a family member playing a prank.
tygerarmy 35
Which is why I always pick all of them. It was a perverted cop family member playing a prank.
brandoneyez1 25
#77 that's hilarious. I could only imagine.

This FML scares me a little
jesustitts 20
What scares me about this FML is that there is still no follow-up..
BeachGirl27 23
I presume this was a lie if there's been no follow-up from the OP ... or was there (maybe I missed it)?
NotGabe 28
Did this person happen to be holding a knife and some rope? :o
igive 29
I hope not. Always check for muderers.
ksks1234 33
3-- is that a "Dead Man on Campus" reference?
Nevermind212 11
The question is, are you the person who was behind the shower curtain
euphoricness 28
If the person was holding a knife and a rope, I don't think OP would have been able to post this FML
flame5768 14
WAIT. are we just going to ignore the fact that there's is a person in the shower?! where are all the douche bags saying that we should sue?!
Sefolkerth 20
Oh dear. Hopefully it was a prank and nothing malicious. Good luck convincing her to go on her own from now on.
jerryj 27
Gonna guess was nothing malicious, as OP would have more serious issues to worry about than posting her little anecdote.
cryptic26 12
I'm going with that it was a sibling, judging by the OP's name"Kids".
drumguy218 11
ALWAYS check behind the shower curtain.
IllestRated 17
I really hope it was someone taking a shower and not some sick perverted bastard
RedPillSucks 33
Or a sick perverted bastard taking a shower...
spazz666 18
I really don't think OP would have had to check if there was someone in the shower, running water would probably be present if they were...
sunnyray812 42
I hope you got the intruder arrested. Poor child. I hope she's not afraid of going to the bathroom now.
classiceagle63 16
Better get her a bedpan from now on.
TokiW117 10
All those years of checking behind the shower curtain finally paid off! Or so I would hope?
TunaFireStarter 16
Why would you hope it paid off? That means someone was actually there, which is something I personally wouldn't want to happen. I hope all my shower curtain checking never results in actually finding someone hiding there (aside from maybe a game of hide and seek.)
spazz666 18
... I believe they were talking about checking and finding them instead of the creep popping out at the child on the toilet. Plus the FML CLEARLY states that there WAS someone behind the curtain.
Ilovemysphynx 19
Wow what are the odds? I hope it was someone you knew. Why we're they even there?
