Today, I was going to ask this girl I love to homecoming. I set up a scavenger hunt, and my friend led her through it. At the end of the scavenger hunt I had a note that said, "Homecoming?" She said yes and hugged my friend. When I told her it was me who was asking, she laughed and said no. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after three years with my dream girl, I decided to pop the question by making her complete a scavenger hunt ending in her finding me, suit and everything, by the park bench where we had our first kiss. She came home tired and, instead of following the clues, decided to watch TV all day. FML
Today, I got asked to Homecoming by the person I really like. I said yes and I was really excited. But my best friend who has liked me since the 6th grade wasn't. He went and broke my date's jaw. FML
Today, I asked a girl I like to homecoming. I brought her to my house beforehand for dinner with my family. My brother asked her whether we were just friends or dating, she shouted, "Just friends!" and then starts flirting with him with me in the room. FML
Today, I sat to the right of a girl I really like. I passed her a note asking her to homecoming. She read it, then hurriedly passed it to a hideous girl sitting on her left, who said yes, then hugged me. FML
Today, I asked a girl to prom by having 5 friends hold up signs saying "P-R-O-M-?" while I snuck up behind her. She said yes... to my friend holding the "?", who she thought was the one asking her. FML
Today, I had an elaborate plan to ask this girl to Prom, and it was going to take a few minutes to set up. I asked my friend to distract her. He decided to distract her by asking her to Prom. She said "Yes". FML
Today, my crush finally asked me to homecoming. I told my best friend, thinking she would be happy for me. Now we are in a big argument and she won't talk to me because I have a date and she doesn't. FML
Today, I decided to ask my friend to the school dance, which is one where the girls ask the guys. I spent hours placing signs down his street so he would see them on his way home. As I was waiting in his driveway with balloons, I saw his car reverse and go in the opposite direction. FML
Today, I went over to my boyfriend's house to break up with him. When I got there, I got sent on a scavenger hunt that ended with him proposing to me. FML
Today, I passed the girl I like a note asking her out, signed Mark H. She picked it up, read it, turned around and asked me, "Do you know who Mark H. is?" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You should have just asked her instead of doing a scavenger hunt. And you should have led her on the hunt yourself at least. YDI

You don't love her. You can't love somebody you've never talked to before. You should've just asked the girl you LIKE out in person.

I'm sorry but what is it with guys doing this kinda thing when they're just asking a girl to homecoming or the prom? Especially since it's homecoming she's probably not going to remember it that much down the line anyway. You're not asking to marry her so why make asking her to one dance such a big spectacle? You deserve it for not having the balls to ask her straight forward; even more so for having your friend go through it with her. The fact that you had to do a scavenger hunt says to me that you needed to do something that would: A) guilt her into going with you, and B) try to prove to her that she should go out with you. I'm not saying you were doing this consciously, but you should have manned up. If she's not into you she's not into you. I can guarantee you though that there is some girl out there who would like to be your date to homecoming and that you don't know it or you're not into her.

Oh wait wait wait!!! I have a theory! All those guys that come on here and make extravagant plans to ask a girl to homecoming and then she says no are the same guys whose girlfriends will post on here in a few years because they got a crappy proposal... :P That's why there's so many crappy proposal stories on here...they all asked out girls to homecoming before in some awesome way, but they said no...so now they figure "Ah, why make any effort if she might say no" ;) lol...

Of course she thought your friend was the guy asking her, because he led her on the hunt. Your planning sucks

I agree with #32. Anyway, I think that's an adorable idea. Maybe it would be more effective if you already knew she was interested in you. Still, I love it. I want to hunt for buzzards and other scavengers!

You hinted at what I wanted to say. I was going to say: Don't mention the word scavenger around someone you "love;" it brings to mind images of buzzards, hyenas and maggots. You don't want your crush to think you view her as a maggot needing dead, rotting flesh for survival. Also, you did your friend a solid. Maybe he'll give you the details of how he got laid after homecoming. Hos before bros.

Exactly! That guy was like, "**** you, man, I'm gonna get some pussaayyy!"

He did send her on a scavenger hunt and she ended up finding a scavenger. Although, the OP doesn't exactly sound like a top-of-the-food-chain predator.
