Today, my Tinder date took one look at me and left, because, "the camera" made me "look thick" and he, "can’t date a skinny bitch." FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, my Tinder date said it wasn’t gonna work, all because, I “need to lose some extra pounds.” Last week, I'd had another Tinder date and he told me he’d continue seeing me if I dropped at least 30 pounds. I think I get the hint now. FML
Today, a Tinder guy asked me if I had a full-body picture since I only have headshots. Being ashamed of my body, I told him my rear camera was broken, so only the front-facing camera worked. He asked me if I could see my toes when I looked down. Without thinking, I looked down and said, "No." He unmatched me. FML
Today, I showed up to my Bumble date with a guy. He looked at me up and down and said, "You look different from the pictures. I pictured you more slimmer." To rub salt in the wound, he proclaimed, "I’d rather staple my nutsack than continue this date. Good luck to you," and walked off. FML
Today, a girl I met on Tinder described herself as curvy and sent me pictures. We agreed to meet and let me say… those pictures were at least 10 years and 15 stone ago. She was no longer curvy or even just overweight, she was grossly obese. I could smell the unwashed skin under her fat rolls. FML
Today, I walked into the bar to meet my Tinder date and sat down next to him at the bar. Without looking up from his phone, his first words to me were, “Piss off fatty, I’m meeting a hot chick tonight.” I guess he didn’t recognise me with my hair done and in a nice dress. FML
Today, a guy didn’t want to take me on a second date. I asked him if it was because I’m not pretty, or because I’m not catwalk model skinny, or too short, and he told me quite openly that it had nothing to do with that, I’m just so boring. FML
Today, I went to a Speed Dating event because the apps just ain’t doing it for me. After a while of talking, the first guy I sat with told me, “You are way too out of shape to have high standards and expectations.” I got up and left the place in tears. This is the world of dating while plus-sized. FML
Today, I came to terms with the fact that in order to get a boyfriend, I need to slim down. When I put full-body shots on dating apps, I get swiped left on. But when I put headshots, I get matches. And lots of them. But I can’t catfish these dudes. Time to go on a diet and hit the gym. It’s not fair. FML
Today, after 4 years of being single, I decided to go back to the dating scene. I downloaded Tinder. My matches run for the hills as soon as I show them a full body pic of myself. One guy even told me to delete the app from my phone, because if “guys wanted to go whaling, they’d go out to sea.” FML
Today, my girlfriend of 5 years dumped me because she got tired of me being thinner than her and, in her own words, making her look bad. FML

Either way, people shouldn't be assholes about it. Could have been a whole lot nicer.

So he is saying you are not fat? People do have different tastes and so find someone who likes their women slimmer. There are a lot out there. There are also a lot who are a whole lot nicer than that person.

It's for the best. There are way more "BBWs" than there are chubby-chasers and plumpa-humpas out there. There should be plenty of guys that appreciate your fit body, so leave that fetishist behind!

One body shamer to another. Liking different body sizes doesn't mean it's a fetish. Personal tastes. Fetish has a bad/abnormal connotation. while just liking women of different sizes doesn't mean a person has a fetish. The tinder date was rude AF, but I'd say it's a good thing. At least she won't find out after countless dates and too much wasted time. Bullet dodged. His attitude makes him definitely not someone worth even wasting the time of day. The fact that he'd speak to her like that...So I hope she never sees him again.

I love how nobody can fate shame, but skinny shaming is ok. Neither should be. And for the one claiming preference, there are better ways to handle it. And sometimes if you stick around for the date, you end up pleasantly surprised.

There should be a rule that any FML that starts with the phrase "my Tinder date" can only receive "you deserved it" votes.
