Today, I got offered a free $80 salon haircut by a girl I've liked for awhile. Thinking this was my chance to get close to her, I accepted, only to find out it was for a class her boyfriend was teaching. He was the one cutting my hair. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got a haircut at a fancy salon and made small talk with the stylist. While she washed my hair, I said, “Wow, this is better than my girlfriend does it.” She replied, “That’s because I’m a professional. Also, I’m your girlfriend’s cousin.” FML
Today, I got the haircut I've been wanting for ages. I then called my girlfriend of two years and asked what she would do if I got a haircut. She told me she would dump me and then invited me to her house for dinner. I'm scared to go. FML
Today, I went to my hairdresser who promised me a haircut which "all the girls would want you" for. She gave me a combover. FML
Today, my new girlfriend canceled my badly needed haircut appointment. She feels that having my female hairstylist wash and cut my hair involves "too much touching" and "counts as cheating." FML
Today, I went to get a haircut. Who shows up not 5 minutes later to also get a haircut? My obnoxious, bully of a boss. She started chatting with me across the salon the entire time. There was no way to get out of the conversation. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because of a bad haircut. She was the one who cut my hair. FML
Today, I went to a different hairdresser than usual to get 5 inches off my hair and bangs. He ended up charging me half price, saying, "Don't worry, we all make mistakes." FML
Today, I got my hair cut. When I was leaving, my stylist was standing fairly close while we were talking. She reached out to smooth out my hair; I went in for a hug. She didn't want a hug. Everyone who was there just stared at me until I left the building. FML
Today, I paid $50 for a haircut. Halfway through, I realized the hairdresser was drunk. FML
Today, as a broke 19-year-old college student, I thought I could save money by cutting my own hair before a presentation. I did one side fine, got distracted and somehow made the other side two inches shorter. I spent the whole class angling my head like I had a neck injury. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

If you've liked her for a while, wouldn't you know she already had a boyfriend?

Well, at least you got a free haircut out of it.

Well now you have a cute, new, stylish haircut to help you move on and find a new girl. This time someone who isn't in a relationship.

I'm curious to know if the boyfriend suspects that OP has a crush on his girlfriend and cut his hair with that in mind...

He did cut your feelings along the way while he cuts your hair

you get an FML and a YDI from me. She offered a haircut and delivered a haircut. Scooby Doo traps seldom work out. FML though because unrequited affection always blows.

I'm curious about this. You got a free haircut. True it wasn't done by your crush, but I fail to see how the fb doing it is a bad thing if HE is TEACHING the class, and you didn't mention him screwing it up. The only thing I can see with how you worded it is the amount of time to get it

It's a bad thing because it's always at least a little awkward when you're doing stuff with your crush's partner. And OP wanted to use it as a chance to get in with his crush, seemingly not knowing that she had a bf. The only good thing here is that at least OP knew the bf wouldn't purposely screw it up as he was using it to teach.

Can't decide if it's your own doing or your life sucks. But she obviously knows you like her and would do anything or almost anything for her so it's probably best you stay away from her.

On the bright side you got a hot (hopefully) new haircut for free that can help you pick up a single lady.
