Today, I realised I haven't had a date in so long that I actually seriously considered meeting someone from online, purely based on the fact he could spell properly. 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 went on an online date. I'd spent a while getting ready and making sure I looked good. When I arrived at the café, I saw my date and approached with a smile. He stood up, looked me over, and said, "Oh, I thought you were your profile picture’s friend." Then left. 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 went on a date with someone I've been talking to online for weeks. Unfortunately, it turns out they'd used old photos and misrepresented themselves, and I didn't find them attractive at all. Even I'm not that desperate. We ended up having an awkward dinner and I couldn't wait for it to be over. FML
Today, I had a first date with a guy I met online. And his mom. FML
Today, I went to a coffee shop to meet an online date. I couldn't spot him, so he eventually came up and introduced himself. It seems his on-line picture must have been taken before I was born. I spluttered "This isn't going to work," and promptly scuttled out. 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, I finally got the chance to meet this wonderful guy I met on a dating site. She was very excited to see me, too. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me via text message. You would think he could at least spell my name right while ending our relationship. FML
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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Did you meet him on FML?

Oh dear. So you go on at someone for using a perfectly acceptable different spelling to you, and then when someone points that out you don't care? And not only that, you fail to use a question mark at the end of post number 2 and also use 'your' rather than 'you're'. Apart from that, you seem pretty cool and intellectual.

Nice choice OP. What's not to like about Grammar Nazis? At least the uniform is cool...

I can actually respect this. When talking with someone via text/chat, their spelling and grammar say a lot about them.

That's also how I filtered my online dates. If they couldn't spell, punctuate correctly or be bothered to use correct grammar, they were put on the "stupid and careless" pile. This worked quite well for me.

@123- You might want to check the different spellings before calling others names. You are the F** retard for being ignorant!

*Confused* So you actually fell in love because of your terrible GRAMMAR, poor spelling and lack of knowledge of punctuation?
