Today, I finally got a date with one of the hottest girls in school, a perfect 10. Just before I go to pick her up to go to the movies, I called her to find out where she lives. She answered the phone, only to hear my father yelling in the background, "STOP TALKING TO THAT WHORE." FML

Sorry OP, but it doesn't sound like she's worth it. You will be better off without her. I hope you meet the right girl soon!

If she accepted a date with you I have to assume you acted really strange on the date, she didn't have to be so harsh about it but still

WTH ?!!! Sounds like she was kind of a jerk. best of luck, OP, but I think you may have dodged a bullet. People who hide behind text messages aren't worth your time, OP.

I'm not gonna be so sympathetic for you. I'm not sure how you can completely oblivious to the lack of chemistry. What were you doing that made her night that bad?

Sympathies. But maybe you need to re-evaluate your dating technique.

As a guy, fellow guys sometimes make even less sense to me than women. Here's why: Guys: "I hate friendzone. If she doesn't like me why can't she just tell me instead of giving me false hopes?" Now here's this girl, tells OP honestly that she doesn't want to see him again(obviously, the date was not so great as he described it, otherwise the girl wouldn't have said this) Guys: "What a bitch, you deserve better, that's not nice" **** logic...

Today, and for weeks now, I was sure my underwear was going missing. I found out why. My husband's brother has been stealing them whenever he visits, presumably to masturbate with. I literally caught him shoving an unwashed pair into his pocket he'd stolen from my laundry pile. Creep. FML

Today, I left my job, fulfilling my one month's notice after receiving a job offer from a much better-paying role. After saying goodbye to everyone, I left the building. Not two minutes later, the company who was offering the new job called to say they'd changed their minds, and there was now no longer a job on offer. FML

Today, while I was babysitting, the toddler was feeding me banana slices from her tray while I was cutting up clay for her to mold. It was all fine until she shoved something hard and crunchy into my mouth. I immediately spat it out into my hand. It was a dead cricket she found on the floor. FML

Today, my wife asked me what I wanted to do this weekend. It’s been so long since she asked, I froze up, unable to think of anything I might enjoy doing that she wouldn’t immediately say no to. It ended up the same as every weekend; we now have plans to go shopping, then visit her mother. FML

Today, I was arrested for DWI in my own apartment complex. I had to be released into the custody of a sober adult, but I wasn't allowed access to my phone to get any numbers. I only have a few memorized. So I was picked up from jail by my ex-girlfriend and her fiancé - my manager at work. FML
