Self report
Today, I went on a blind date set up by a friend. Everything was going great until I accidentally called my date by my ex’s name. Twice. My date promptly excused herself to the restroom and never came back. FML

Oh no…
Today, I went on a blind date. Not only I had already been on a date with the guy before, we'd also had both forgotten about it until halfway through the dinner. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. Sadly, I wasn't blind enough. FML

Classic
Today, I went on a blind date and mistook someone else at the restaurant for my date. We had a great conversation… until the real blind date arrived. The look on both their faces was priceless. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. As soon as my date saw me walking towards him, he checked his watch and said, "Oops, wrong place." Then walked right past me. FML

Today, I went on a blind double date. My date was drunk before I got there. He kept getting my name wrong, and ended up spilling a glass of red wine down the front of my dress. FML

Bad omen
Today, I went on a blind date. Not only did his phone go flat before I found him, but we were at totally different bars. FML

Names and faces
Today, I hate when I go out and I forget peoples' names; even though they know me and I know them, I forgot their name. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. My date would respond to me by saying "retweet" and "favorite" when she thought something was relatable. FML

Classic blunder
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

You think that's bad? I can't properly pronounce the name of my partner of three years, so I never say it. I think he's starting to realize...

I would have left the date after the second incident unless you played it off super cool.

Don't worry happens to everyone. See must have been a stunner
Pwn17 25
No it doesn't. And what the hell do you mean by "stunner"?
akiahara 14
It means he/she's stunningly attractive.
Pwn17 25
I know that, but that doesn't make sense in this context. I'm guessing 1 meant stumper, now that I think about it.

#21, it does make sense. So stunning that you forget the persons name.
Pwn17 25
I guess that makes sense. Though in my case, when I find someone attractive, I can't forget their name.
Bano360 25
Sometimes I forget people's names, it happens. But usually if it's a good looking girl, I don't forget.

So the date was both deaf and blind...?
Pwn17 25
OP was, not the date.
nesscafe_fml 17
I'm not talking about the person she was with, but the date itself. Went straight over your head didnt it?
Pwn17 25
I just misunderstood and tried to make a simple correction. Sorry for trying to be nice.

How have you gone on 3 years without your partner noticing you can't say his name properly? I'm guessing you use more pet names than anyone else LOL.

I've dated people who said my name wrong an people who's names I couldn't say right (foreign) they didn't really mind.
castleofg1ass 19
Just refer to him as 'bro' 'man' 'dude' And when u get his number make him put his name in the contact page
AKGirlinSD 20
The guy will realize that the date has forgotten his name if he's asked to save his name and number in his date's phone. OP should have admitted to her date, right away, that his name slipped her mind. OP could have made a joke that he was such a good charmer, she forgot his name (or something silly like that).

I wouldn't suggest saying bro or man. That's not something a girl should really say at a date.

He's blind... remember?

I don't see a second date in your future.

Just say: 'what's your name again?' And he'll be offended, but answer, and then you laugh and say: 'no silly, I meant your last name!' Or ask how to spell his name, you'll be ****** if it's something easy as Bob, but it's worth a try!
CharresBarkrey 15
Wasn't that an old FML? A girl on a blind date forgot his name, asked him how to spell it and it ended up being Bob. Edit. Yep, just found it. A girl was entering a guy's number in her phone and forgot his name.
KrazyKatz3 26
No no. Then you say: B-o-b. Interesting. I met a Bob last week spelt it: Bobb. Or something similar.

Why yes it was!

How do we know OP was a girl? I thought so at first, then I remembered the song Lola by the Kinks...
