Today, after buying the plane ticket to Glendale, CA to visit 17 year old Courtney who I met on a dating website, she called me for the first time to say that she was actually 19 year old Seth from Atlanta, GA. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was talking to a guy I met online and have known for four years. I've fallen in love with him twice, one of those times being currently. He was supposed to visit this summer. I got an email from him saying he's really a 17 year-old girl from Chesterfield, MO. FML
Today, I found out that the 19-year-old I've been seeing is really 26, with two kids and a pregnant fiancée. I'm only 17. FML
Today, I went out to meet a wonderful woman I'd chatted with online. I did have a few fears about if she was really just some guy trying to make a fool out of me. When I met her, she really was a girl, and was happy to see me. Problem: she was actually 13. I'm 34. FML
Today, I went on a 70-mile drive to the next town over to finally meet this beautiful girl I had talked to online. To my surprise, she looked exactly how she did in her pictures, minus the ring on her finger and the fiancé who wanted to punch me in the face. FML
Today, the boy that I met online six months ago and expressed my love to sent me a picture of himself and confessed how old he really was: thirteen. I'm eighteen years old and holding a steady job. FML
Today, I flew to California to visit my younger sister at college. When I got to her house, her boyfriend looks at her and says, "She's not THAT ugly." FML
Today, I met and asked a cute girl out on a date. We decided to meet at a fancy restaurant downtown. When I got there I saw her sitting with what turned out to be her parents. They made a huge scene, calling me a pedophile and a low-life. Apparently, the girl was 16 years-old. I'm 25. FML
Today, I found out the 28-year-old I am dating is actually 48. FML
Today, completely excited, I told my mom about this guy from high school that I had really liked and who had found me on Facebook. He said he regretted not asking me out in high school and offered to fly me out to visit him. Her response? "Has he seen what you look like now?" FML
Today, I thought my online boyfriend was calling me, so the first line I said was "Hey, Baby." His wife answered with, "This is Jenny. Who's this?" After speaking for thirty minutes, I found out he's married, fifty-eight, and has two kids. I'm seventeen. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Anyone calling this guy a pedophile is a ******* idiot. 17 is not a prepubescent child, and that's what pedophiles are attracted to. By 17 most males and females are physically developed enough to look like adults. There is no physical difference between 17 and 18, or even sometimes 20+ for that matter. Secondly, why does everyone assume that he must be an older guy? What if the OP is about 18-19 himself? He was disappointed about the guy's gender, not his age. Another thing, the age of consent in most states and countries worldwide is around 16(which makes the Dateline comments irrelevant.) So if you think finding a 16-17 attractive is pedophilia, then you're gonna be sad to know that it's totally legal in most places. OP- You deserve it for wasting money on someone you didn't even see or hear. I have nothing against online dating if you actually get to know the person. You apparently didn't, which makes you stupid and undeserving of any sympathy.

I've no idea how many times I've said this, but what the **** is wrong with you people?! Anyone with an ounce of common sense would sk for photos, webcam, etc before even thinking of meeting up with someone.

YDI for 1.) Flying out to visit a 17 year old 2.) Not asking for pics first 3.) Flying to a different state before even speaking to the "girl" on the phone. Moron.

You life is not "******". It's not like plane ticketsare totally unaffordable, unless you're broke, in which case you should NOT have bought a ticket to see a random "girl" you met online. Sorry, (well, actually i'm not sorry) but YDI!
