Today, I met a really cute guy at work. He asked for my number, and I wrote it down on a piece of paper. After looking at the paper, he crumpled it up, yelled "Do you think I'm stupid? I know the rejection hotline when I see it", and walked away. It was my real phone number. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, I spoke to my crush for the first time, and after a while he asked for my number. Ecstatic, I took the first piece of paper I saw out of my purse. I wrote it down and gave it to him, but he handed it back and said, "You might need this." It was an appointment card for my therapist. FML

You should've picked up the work phone, dialed the number you wrote down and showed him your cell phone as it rang. lol

I'm split on this one. If he really thought it was the rejection hotline, then he's a dumb jackass. However, I find it hard to believe he really thought it was the rejection hotline. If he truly yelled it out loud, especially in a crowd, then I think he might just have been screwing with you to get a laugh. If I saw that happening in a public place, I probably would have laughed, and then commented about what a bitch you were. Maybe he has ulterior motives for his behavior? So if he thought it was the rejection hotline, he's a dumbass. If he was just goofing, it's kinda funny. It makes him a jerk, but a funny one!

someone has a serious lack of confidence, sheet even if i thought it was the rejection hotline i would have called just to see which rejection it was.

maybe he was just playing with you. he probably didn't want your number anyways and just pretended that your number was the rejection hotline LOL.

Today, I asked a cute girl for her phone number. I looked at the paper and thought it was the rejection hotline and I yelled at her and walked away. Turns out it wasn't. FML.
