Creepy, Awkward and Love: You freak!

You freak!

By LonelyGuy - 15/12/2014 11:59 - Australia

Today, I called this girl I've had a crush on for 2 years to confess my love to her. However, as she picked up the phone, I got so nervous that I froze and couldn't say a word. I was standing there, breathing heavily for 20 seconds. She got so freaked out that she threatened to call the police. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, the phone rang so I went to answer it. No one was there. A minute later the phone rang again and no one answered so I assumed it was a telemarketer or a prank so I started swearing uncontrollably in rage. Turns out it was my crush calling to ask me out, but she was too nervous to ask. FML

Today, I gathered the courage to ask my crush on a date. As I called her, she quickly answered and said "Can't talk right now, I'm in a movie theater." and then hung up. I'd called her home phone. FML

Today, I finally worked up the courage to write a girl a note, with my number on it, and the words: "You're stunning. Get in touch sometime." Heart pounding, I saw her, got up, and passed her the note. Then I passed out at her feet. FML

Today, I called in to my girlfriend's favorite radio station to propose. After spending what seemed like an eternity telling her how much I love her and I want to spend the rest of my life with her, she took a deep breath, said, "How about no?" and hung up. FML

Classic blunder

By Anonymous - 28/10/2022 16:00

Today, I had a phone call from a company I was applying to. It was going really well, until the call ended. Now since I'm so used to calling my girlfriend, I ended the call with, "Love you, bye." And if things couldn't get any worse, I started swearing to myself. The recruitment officer heard me. I forgot to hang up. FML

Today, a girl I've liked for several years gave me her number. Finally, I worked up the courage to call her. It was a suicide help line. FML

No thanks

Today, I worked up the courage to confess my feelings to this girl I'm crazy about. I even wrote and recorded a song for her. Instead of listening to it, she gave it to her ex-boyfriend, who responded to my heartfelt words by headbutting me. FML

Tales of the unexpected

By Ryuga - 11/06/2009 01:43 - United States

Today, I decided to confess my feelings to the girl I've had a crush on since the beginning of high school. We agreed to meet at Starbucks, but she was bringing a friend. I didn't care, because I just wanted to tell her how I felt. When I got there, I saw her making out with another girl. FML

Remember bars?

By Baby_girl - 06/06/2009 02:14 - United States

Today, my best friend whom I have been in love with for years, called me, proposed, and confessed his love for me. He was at a noisy bar so I asked him to call me back later and we'd discuss it. He called back later, hungover, with no recollection of our conversation whatsoever. FML

Honestly, if you eventually manage to tell and explain that to her, she'll probably think it's cute that you were that nervous

On the contrary I'd recommend not telling her that the creepy breather on the phone was him. I can't imagine it would help his chances.

Why do people confess their "love" for people they have not previously dated? Its a bit scary honestly and I think that if you do want to confess your feelings the word love should stay very far away from that talk. I personally don't want people confessing their love to me if we aren't or were never dating, its a scary thing. Good luck next time OP, I'd recommend explaining in person.

Yes, finally. I don't understand why we encourage people to express their undying love for someone when chances are the other person will be way to overwhelmed with that. It's better to just ask them out on a date and let them know you're interested. It would be kind of weird to go out with someone who you aren't even sure you're totally interested in and know that they think they're already madly in love with you and have been for years.

Next time have a pan next to you on a counter. If you get stuck push the pan off the counter, yell oh my God I'll have to call you back and hang up.

Ask her out in person OP, try not to stress but honestly getting nervous in front of her isn't the worst thing that could happen. I know a lot of girls that think it's cute, and I certainly never thought it was a deal breaker. You've got this.

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. And if it doesn't work the second time stop before you do get arrested.

Honestly, you should tell her something that important in person. :/ I'm sure it'll be hard, given you had trouble over the phone, but it'll be a lot more genuine. :)

I wouldn't tell her that was you. Honestly, how well do you know this person? If it's been too long they may only see you as a friend. Try to find out, how she may feel but do not "confess your love". If you guys are close it's weird to have that out pouring of emotion from someone that you generally figured was a friend(even if they do like you somewhat) and it's weird if you two barely talk to each other.
