Today, a guy I went on one date with asked me out again via text. Being honest, I texted back, politely saying that he was a good guy but I wasn't really interested. He came over to my house, screaming about how awful I was for "text message breaking up with him" and then cracked my windshield. FML

Today, this guy I was seeing dumped me for "bombarding" him with text messages. I'd sent him one text asking if he was okay, after he stood me up 2 nights in a row. FML
Today, I went on a date to the movies with this guy I kinda like. When he was driving me home, he asked me to be his girlfriend; I said I couldn’t because it was really bad timing. He kicked me out of the car, called me an asshole, and made me walk home. FML
Today, I texted the guy I went out with last night. He'd told me he’d text me when he got home, but he never did. Cracking a joke, I asked him if he was homeless or something, since he broke his word. He replied, “No, I’m just not that into you. Have a nice life.” FML
Today, I went on a Grindr date with a really cute guy. I thought things went really well. When he dropped me off at home, he told me not to text him anymore because his wife might get mad. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked me to text him when I got home after driving 40 miles in bad weather from his house back to mine. When I did, he broke up with me. FML
Today, I met a wonderful man and agreed to go on a date. Halfway through the date, he started telling about how much he hates his wife. And his four kids. I texted him after I walked out, saying not to call me again. He agreed. His wife didn't. FML
Today, I had to cancel a first date due to tornado weather. The guy texted me, saying never to contact him again, and then blocked me. This is the fourth time this exact scenario has happened to me. FML
Today, I went to the movies with this guy I'd started dating. During the movie, I thought it would be cool and funny to make sarcastic comments. When he dropped me off home, he told me that it was the worst date ever and to not talk to him again for being "annoying and obnoxious." FML
Today, a guy I'd been seeing off and on for the past three years broke things off over a Facebook message. I replied, and told him that I was at least worth a phone call. He replied "Well, I'm sorry, I disagree." FML
Today, a woman who I have spoken to approximately twice in my life, asked me out. I turned her down in the most harmless way I could. Three hours later, I found my car keyed and my windshield wipers gone. FML

Some people just can't take rejection...

So much for a 'good guy'.
Keevarou 17
He may have a majority complex or something.. Or have been hurt too much so that he turned unstable, the good news is that he damaged the car and not you though
daniel_dd31 13
Make that idiot pay for the windshield
Timbuka 1
I disagree with 48. Don't get any more involved with this guy. Pay to fix the windshield yourself, and then enjoy your life knowing you will probably never see the psycho again.
iAlissa 34
55 - Or make the psychopath pay hundreds of dollars for a new windshield, then get a restraining order.
Keevarou 17
56, he may not be a psychopath though, just mentally unstable
iAlissa 34
59 - Good point. Lets just leave it at this; stay the hell away from him.

So it's okay for him to ask her out over text, but not for her to decline over text. Wait I guess that's a pretty good strategy. She can't say no.
NickKuiper 8
I agree with 56, new windshields are pretty expensive, and the restraining order will give you some Peace of Mind (Holla at ya Boston!) I mean, it would suck if he made a habit of showing up and breaking things of yours :/

Did we just discover a new meme? Overly attached boyfriend?
ninjaqueen101 18
What did the car ever do to him? Poor thing.
Cairo_Sanchez 8
Dude needs to chill, and pay for that windshield!
Dark__Angel66 24
Techinically it's vandalism, kind of like slashing someone's tires. So if he doesn't pay for the windshield, she should go to the police too.
spazz666 18
Obviously it broke up with him through email! He'll be coming for OP next! OP just thought the two were related. She never dreamed her car would be such a heartbreaker.

Some guys do crack when rejected. Happened to me a couple of times in life. This is why I now ignore messages and let the guy wonder. It's better then potentially getting screamed at or worse. I guess it depends on the guy. OP should be very careful. He could end up stalking her.
Zomg_Okay 26
So you're a bitch because he *might* be a bastard. Aren't you just a lovely person?

36 i wish i could add your comment to my favorites
hama806 19
No I'm usually not a bitch but after dealing with a few psycho men it kind brings it out in me. Better safe then sorry.
iAlissa 34
Or just be honest and don't do stupid womanly mind-games.

YYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

64, seriously, do women like you still exist? My town seems fresh out.
TheAbstract 15
Also 42, learn the difference between "then" and "than" please. I'm not trying to be an asshole here but it is really quite useful to understand their definitions.
hama806 19
64- Of course I'd rather not resort to these games but with SOME men I have no choice. You might understand once you get out of your teens and have just a little more life experience.
iAlissa 34
82 - We're quite common! You just have to look for the ones who want a mutually respective relationship, and don't "leave them wondering".
iAlissa 34
And 84, I do realize I may not be as old as you, but I know ignoring men and confusing them isn't right. If that's what you do in a relationship, you shouldn't be in one.
hama806 19
86- I'm not talking about being in a relationship. Is that what you thought? This FML is about a first date. That's what I was talking about.
iAlissa 34
I'm simply referring to the fact that you ignore texts and leave them wondering, that's all.
Snoopy0718 14
She does that so the guys wouldn't go crazy on her. I know I would, has happened to me before and make me seem like the bad guy there when I'm not even interested in the first place.
TheAbstract 15
@85 Look at my face. Do I look like I'd keep a lady wondering? Also, leaving people wondering isn't cool at all. I've never really understood why we do stuff like that to each other.
hama806 19
Look I'm just saying I have had bad experiences with psycho men and I don't want to anymore. Unfortunately, this has been the only solution that seems to work. Men blow women off all the time, we can do the same if necessary. Signing off on this thread. Thank you.

Unfortunately it's situations like these that suck, because when you do find a bad situation it can cause a person to change their methods. and it can hurt someone else in the future. In short, psychos stop being psycho and no more mind games?
kakarot2 11
I reckon he didn't take it so well...
wlddog 14
She should text him and tell him how she feels.
yoloswagg54 9
No shit Sherlock.
limitedition 25
Just think what this guy would have done if you had dated him. What a wingnut.
gc327072 30
He's definitely a lobcock.
limitedition 25
I'm going to steal that insult... It's awesome.
iAlissa 34
9 - Lobcock. Cracked me up.
dalink 24
Lobcock. Wingnut. Winners. Post more.

Go break his windshield. Then get a restraining order.
JaneChemi_fml 21
yes to the restraining order. no to the windshield
SirCharles83 13
Yea that's brilliant, go show him you're no better than he is. If the guy would have played his cards right, OP may have wondered if she made a mistake in brushing him off. The way he handled it just proves to her she did the right thing.
sammyf89 13
Wow. Good call not pursuing the relationship. Probably would have been much worse if you broke up further into it.
kate3101 15
Oh look - comment twins!
kate3101 15
Wow - consider it a close call. Imagine what he'd do to someone who broke up with him after 3 dates. Or 10. What a nut.

If you've only been on one date with him, you shouldn't have let him know where you live. And this is exactly why.
gracehi 31
She might have known him before he asked her out, like from work or school or something. It'd be nice to think you can trust someone you've known for a while, but you really can't, because often people aren't what they seem. I doubt OP would have gone on even one date with him if she had any inkling of how crazy he was beforehand.
spazz666 18
So she shouldn't have let him pick her up for a date? I was under the impression that's usually an acceptable thing to have happen.
dontpanic_fml 32
I hope you filed a police report; I would have cracked something of his that's for sure. Truly unbelievable some people. I'm sorry...
