Today, I told my coworkers that I was going on a date tonight so they would think I have a social life. One of them spotted me while I was eating alone at McDonalds. FML

Well to be honest I made the whole thing up because I got tired of being that one guy at work who can't get a girlfriend. It's a small place, there are only 8 of us who work there, and I'm the only one that's single, so I get jokes about it quite a lot. They're nothing bad, I know it's all in fun, but yesterday someone made yet another joke about it and for some reason I just blurted out that I had a date tonight. As soon as I did I figured might as well go with the story, so when I got questioned about it I made up a fake name and description for the girl as well. The best part is that I told everyone I was taking her to this really fancy and expensive restaurant, so when they saw me at McDonalds it was ironic actually. Luckily for me today is a holiday, but I have a feeling tomorrow the mocking is going to be worse than ever. I voted YDI by the way.

So? Not all dates include taking her out to dinner. You might have been taking her out later on to a swinger's club instead. :P

What's the point of lying? You'll just keep digging yourself in a bigger hole when they start asking for details like: • "what's her name?" • "got a pic?" • "you guys have been going out for 8 months already, can we finally meet her?"

Why do people think they need to lie about their social lives to impress people who don't care about them? Enjoy your single life and when you do find someone to be with, you'll be happy you had that time to get to know yourself better and mature before settling down.

just say it wasn't a dinner date you went on and that you had thought you should grab a bite to eat afterward.
