Today, my mom barged into my room at three in the morning, demanding to know where I'd been. I'd been in my room sleeping since ten o'clock. In that time she had called the police, all of my friends, and my ex-boyfriend, asking if I was with them. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mother showed up to pick something up from my house. I was sleeping and before I knew it she was in my bedroom, jumping on my bed, saying hi to my ex-girlfriend who she thought was with me. It wasn't my ex, and I doubt that girl will ever want to hang out again after that awkward morning. FML
Today, I finally had a day off in two weeks and I was excited about getting to sleep in. At 5 a.m., my mom loudly knocked and came in. When I asked her what she wanted, she said she was checking to see if I was asleep. FML
Today, I was so exhausted that I slept through my phone ringing, and later my doorbell ringing. My psycho mom freaked out, and thinking I was in trouble, broke a window to get inside. This all happened before 7 a.m. FML
Today, I came home at 1 am to find my mom sitting on my couch, ranting about how I'm not supposed to stay up this late. I'm 26 and I don't know how she got into my house. FML
Today, I was woken up at 11:30 am by my mother standing over my bed, screaming at me. I'm 30 years-old, married, and do not live with her. She broke into my house because I didn't answer my phone, because I'm sick and on prescription sleep meds. WTF? FML
Today, I got a knock on my door at 3 a.m. Turns out, if I ignore my mother long enough, she will assume I have died and will call the cops. FML
Today my best friend called me at 6 a.m., ranting and accusing me of sleeping with her husband. I live two hours away and haven't seen him in person in over six months. FML
Today, my mother stormed into my room shouting about how I never go anywhere and then tells me to go out "NOW" and do something. As she is pushing me out the door, her boyfriend walks in. FML
Today, I texted my mom and had to explain to her that calling me repeatedly at 2 a.m. because you're bored and want to talk is not really a good idea. Seriously, nothing happened, she just wanted to chat because she had nothing else to do. Her response to my message? She started calling me again. FML
Today, my mother woke me up by loudly vacuuming the house. I had to work the next morning, so I asked her what she was thinking. She told me that if I was really tired and needed sleep, I wouldn't have woken up. It was 3 AM. FML

Common sense is beyond some people.

Maybe she couldn't see OP under the sheets? But she should have checked more thoroughly anyway:')
Jag_v 7
Apparently not

Wouldn't both OP and her mom have cellphones? Maybe a text or simple phone call.. If her mom doesn't have a cell, I'm certain that OP does, therefore her mom could call her cell from the house line? (Assuming OP has a calling plan)

40-It may have been on silent, vibrate, or turned off.

Or just simply the fact that he was sleeping

Some people are just oblivious...it doesn't matter how obvious op's location was. One time, I went out for a walk (telling my mother I was doing so on the way out) and then returned 20 minutes later. I walked past her, said "hey mom" and grabbed a soda from the kitchen (that she was currently standing in) and went downstairs. Not 15 minutes later she called me on my cell asking where I was and if I'd be home in time for dinner. When I mentioned I was already home she was genuinely surprised. -_-

I can't believe she wouldn't think to check your room first!

That happened once to my sister. My mom was afraid she was dead in the river behind our house. She was actually sleeping under her bed... Is that where you were sleeping?
SystemofaBlink41 27
May I ask, why the hell was she sleeping under the bed?
Jovecove 13
Dead in the river?! Hahaha your mum must've been freaking out bad then

Did your mom watch Bridge to Terabithia a few too many times?

When I was young, I fell out of my bed once and ended up sleeping under it.

Or you want to sleep there hoping no one would find you.

I feel for you op my mother once pulled a similar stunt
spaboolly 26
Same here. Mine tried to have me arrested for it too. Mothers are crazy, crazy things.

My mum did the same ******* thing when she couldn't reach me over my mobile phone immediately. The difference: I live over 500 kilometers away from home. I think she is obsessed or something though, she once attacked me with scissors because she didn't want me to go to a friends brithday party.

I can't believe she'd call all those people and not even think about checking your room
lysx84 24
Perhaps op was indeed sneaking about to the wee hours and this fml is part of an elaborate alibi?
mbuck87 19
We're onto you OP!
SoMuchSnailGame 3
I completely agree! I feel like a lot of fmls aren't true they just write them to justify it in their own heads

Maybe you are so skinny she didn't see the sheets raised up. Eat a sammich
plasticsmile42 2
That was rude
aplexis 8
How was that rude?
chriisteex 10
Why the hell does everyone think being called skinny is a compliment? Maybe for those who are trying to lose weight but if you've been naturally thin your whole life and have always been called a twig and how you could "break me in half" then telling me to eat a "sammich" is not really advice of endearment.
chriisteex 10
I know this was just a light joke but people are extremely quick to comment on a skinny persons physique as if its not rude at all.

Damn it Hermione, I thought I said to stop playing around with that time turner!

Time to bring home a huge obese boyfriend who would push your mom aside and ooze into your room, letting her know when you're home.

... what?

Reference to a previous FML.

As Ashlley said, it was referred to another FML.

The obese man pushing past the pregnant lady for the seat one. This was pradip's attempt to be funny
