Today, I joined a dating website and spent all day filling out and improving my profile. My first match is a guy who relentlessly tried to date me for all 4 years of high school. Now he just has more reasons to tell me how much we're meant to be. We're a 97% match. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went on a date with a guy I met online. It was going OK, until he started asking me if he should stick with the site until he finds the right person. I guess I know how he feels about me, at least. FML
Today, I re-joined a popular on-line dating service. I'd first signed up 3 years ago and was matched with a wonderful woman. After about a year, she broke up with me. I was devastated. After two years of trying to win her back, I'd decided it's best just to move on. Guess who they matched me with? FML
Today, I signed up for an online dating service, a couple of days after my divorce. I got my first batch of matches, and number one was a smiling picture of the woman who had just divorced my ass after 20+ years together. Her profile shows she has to have been active there for months. FML
Today, I decided to try something new and sign up for an online dating service, since I can't meet a decent guy in person. The first guy I talked to told me he used to be in a mental hospital for obsessing over a girl, then told me he would be dreaming of me that night. FML
Today, I finally met the guy I've been getting to know online in person for a date. When we saw each other, we both realized that we had heavily Facetuned our profile pictures. The awkward silence that followed was the longest five minutes of my life. FML
Today, I was helping my friend create an online dating profile. When she got her search results, her #1 match was a blonde guy only 10 miles from her. His description: genuine, laid back, and ready for fun. He left off something kind of important. He's already married. To me. FML
Today, I joined a dating website for the first time in 12 years and spent an hour carefully crafting my profile. Ten minutes after posting, my sibling texted me screenshots. I’d linked my profile to Facebook, where my bio appeared under my real name for half my extended family. Aunt Linda left a heart reaction. FML
Today, the guy I've been dating texted me to say he joined an online dating site. He must have thought I was the best person to share this information with. FML
Today, a cute guy I recognized from one of my classes messaged me on a dating site. He wanted help with homework. FML
Today, it's been a year since I met a guy online. We clicked almost immediately. Eventually we started dating, after proving who we are through many sources. Turns out he lied about his age after he conspired to make sure I was 100% in love with him before telling me the truth. He's legal but the age gap is uncomfortable. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

why don't you just give him a chance? at least get to know him if you haven't yet.

You're lonely enough to join a dating website; no one is below your standards now. The only lower you could possibly sink now is a Craigslist personal.

So you're shallow, can't find a date now, and realize you were wrong. Am I missing how you don't deserve this?

Sounds like you guys really were meant for each other. You should give him a chance.

The guy has tried for four years to date you and then you get matched on the website and you still won't give him a chance? Sounds like your pretty shallow to me.

So shallow because she doesn't want to date a man that won't stop bothering her despite a dating site telling her to.. Wow

There seem to be two possibilities: First, he is actually worth looking into. Unless he is so hideous that you couldn't see yourself hanging around near him in public, or he is just that repulsive to you, why haven't you reconsidered? Second, he is a genius and has tailored his answers to your's, and is thereby worthy of at least lunch on Saturday. Though, that would also make him scary, but still admirable in his devotion to detail.

Um, signing up for a dating service in and of itself is a mark of desperation. Sure, it may work out just fine (I know people it's completely worked out for), but that doesn't mean it's not a sign. You only brought this on yourself. Also, it's pretty obvious she doesn't like the guy. It's her personal preference whether or not she wants to date the guy, so I'm not gonna argue with that.

For his sake, don't go out with him. He doesn't need a) to be reminded of probably embarrassing high school behavior over a girl he'd rather forget, or b) to get his hopes up for finally living out his long-held nostalgic dreams, just to be crushed by you again when you don't call, or c) the final nudge to tip him off the edge into psychostalker pervert land. One of these is bound to happen.

Way to be super judgemental of someone you obviously know nothing about. Maybe she just wasn't into him, doesn't make him a "pyschostalker from pervert land"... How old are you anyway... Pervert land? lol :P

give the guy a chance.

I find making this an FML kinda stupid. Oh poor you, you're desparate, but too good for a guy that actually seems to want you. Why not give him a chance? Beggers can't be choosers... :P
