Abandoned

By Anonymous - 30/07/2015 06:56 - Australia

Today, while shopping with my sister, she asked me to wait for her while she quickly said hello to a friend. I sat on a bench for an hour before I realised she wasn't coming back. Turns out, "Hello" had turned into a date. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I went out on my first date in 2 months. My sister and her friends were also at the same restaurant we went to. I decided to ignore them but they didn't. As a joke, they though it would be funny if her friend came up and said, "I had fun last night, we should do it again". My date left. FML

Classic blunder

By Jake404 - 10/07/2023 00:02 - Australia

Today, I went on a blind date that my friend set up at a coffee shop. I arrived early, feeling nervous but excited. As I sat waiting, I noticed a person waving at me from across the room. I smiled and waved back, only to realize that they were actually waving at someone behind me. My date never showed up. FML

Misunderstood

By Lonely - 24/07/2011 17:02 - United States

Today, I went out for coffee with my sister and my crush. I spent the majority of the date flirting with my crush, and when he dropped us off at home, I told him I had fun on our date. He looked at me surprised and said he'd thought I'd tagged along on his date with my sister. FML

Today, I had a date with a girl. Wanting to make a good impression, I spend a lot of time getting ready and by the time I get to the place we were supposed to meet she isn't there anymore. I call her to see where she is. She's in bed with another guy and says "I was REALLY waiting for you". FML

Not helping

By Anonymous - 19/05/2022 14:00

Today, I wanted to be alone for once, so I went out for dinner, planning to go to the cinema afterwards. My sister ambushed me at the restaurant because she’d heard I was stressed out and wanted to be alone, so she thought she should keep me company while I was alone to make me feel better. FML

She definitely heard

Today, I had to go to the mall for a quick errand. While there one of my friends who works at a phone booth was there and I stayed for a little bit chatting with him. While chatting, a girl passed by. She was so pretty that I blurted out, "What a woman!" out loud. Turns out it was my ex. FML

Today, I was sitting in the restaurant waiting for my blind date to come. I had sat for an hour until I finally got fed up and went to leave when at the same time the guy at the table next to me stood up to leave too. I noticed he had been sitting alone. Turns out he was my date. FML

Negging

By f*ck - 02/05/2012 16:22 - United States

Today, I had a date with the girl I've been interested in for months. I'm pretty laid-back and casual with my friends, which backfired and caused the date to end with a slap, when I greeted her with a friendly "S'up, slut?" FML

Hello?

By Kait - 19/06/2019 08:07 - Canada - Newmarket

Today, I went on a Tinder date. Sort of. I got ready and went to the bar he'd chosen. I waited 15 minutes for him to show. We exchanged ”Hellos,” then he said he was going to grab a drink and walked off. He didn’t come back. Damn, was it the way I said, “Hello”? FML

First Dates

By mildver - 20/04/2009 04:51 - Costa Rica

Today, I went to a date with a girl I thought liked me. We sat down at a restaurant, ordered some food and started talking. After 30 minutes, she said with a sigh of relief, "THANK GOD! There's my dad. Now I can leave. Bye, thanks for the dinner." The food hadn't even arrived yet. FML

Invite her out again some other time and ditch her! That's the way to go if you're evil and wanting of revenge like me.

She's pretty inconsiderate I understand stuff happens sometimes, but she could've let you know at least.

Ruin her next date by coming with your own date to the same place. She should've warned you before going off with someone else

And how would that ruin her date?

Tell her "goodbye" and turn it into you leaving without her

I don't know why you got down voted. That was pure gold.

Isn't that what leaving is?

Oh ya! As opposed to, you know...saying goodbye and leaving it as an 'I'm not really leaving' thing?

My family ditches me all the time in shopping malls, stores, pools anywhere really... Just find something to do. Not really an FML, except for the waste of your time.

That stinks, OP. How'd you find out that it was a date anyway?

I would assume her sister told her about the date.

Well, it definitely seems like your sister can make a lasting impression.

Aw! I'm sorry OP, but your sisters game must be pretty strong for that to happen so quickly x

Or she just ran into a friend she has been out with recently. I highly doubt it was some random stranger, OP did say it was a friend of hers after all

Well the comments suck, and have sucked recently. I miss the days when people had clever comments and funny ones vs all this "sorry OP" or "that sucks lol" comments.

You got that right #12. Seems like everyone is a English major or like you said, sorry.

Be happy for her and ask her next time to tell you her change of plans. Siblings have to be united always!

I'd be happy for my sister getting a date! I totally agree, the bond of siblings is like no other. My brother is my best friend, I'm the best woman in his wedding, and I'd have been thrilled for him!
