Today, I went shopping with my Mom. I ran into my crush. A school dance is soon and he WAS just about to ask something but my mom glanced over and yelled "TAMPONS OR PADS, SWEETIE?!" He then changed his question to "Haha, so which?" And before I could say a word, my mother answered for me. FML
Collection
College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
Today, I saw my crush standing at the bus stop. I did the "I'm talking to someone on the phone thing," trying to be cool. Halfway through the conversation my phone actually rang, I quickly answered but it was my mom on loudspeaker yelling, "Did you bring your tampons?" FML
Today, while at the store with my mom, we ran into the girl I recently confessed to being interested in. My mom decided to shout, "IS THAT HER?! IS THAT THE GIRL YOU LIKE?!" Embarrassed, I desperately told her to be quiet. She grounded me for being "rude" to her. FML
Today, I finally got up the nerve to ask out my crush, only to find out that they're already in a committed relationship with my mom. FML
Today, I was going out to buy some stuff from the store. As I was leaving, my mom warned me to tie my shoelaces; I told her not to worry about it. As I'm walking down the street, I see my crush walking towards me. As I get closer and say hi, I trip on my shoelaces and face-plant into her chest. FML
Today, I was jogging through my neighborhood and then I notice this cute guy running beside me, we stoped and flirted for a while and my mom drove past. She then rolled down the window and said "Honey, you owe me for the dry cleaning on your period pants." FML
Today, my best friend told me he had a crush on someone in my house. I got excited, but he told me it was my mom. FML
Today, I was in Walmart with my mom. I was looking for some CDs I wanted and saw a cute guy. Then he nodded at me and as he started to walk towards me, I hear my name being called over the intercom. Apparently, according to my mom, it was time to go. FML
Today, I was out shopping with my mom. While we were walking, a guy in a car honked at me. I'm not used to compliments, so I was pretty flattered and flashed him a smile. He looked back at me, confused, then shook his head and pointed at my mom. FML
Today, I was at a party with my crush. The collar on his shirt was sticking up so I fixed it for him. He gave me a hug and said, "Aww you're so good to me. You're like my mother. You can be my college mother." I got mother-zoned. FML
Today, I bought some flowers. As I was checking out, the cashier asked, "Aww, these for your mom? How sweet." I responded they were for a girl I liked. She laughed and said, "Sorry…" FML

Your mum was just testing how well he could cope with crazy parents. Sounds to me like he coped with it pretty well. If he didn't ask you the question you wanted to hear afterwards, he probably wasn't going to be asking it anyway.

If he didn't ask you afterwards, I doubt he wanted to ask you anyways. I mean, seriously? what kind of guy gets put off by that question?

Is there a such thing as ****-blocking for females? Because I'm pretty sure that's what just took place here.

your mom is just getting revenge for all the public embarrassment you did. but the coup de grace will come when you have children of your own.

#38, It could be a few weeks away, but even if it is in August, I know several schools that have homecoming really early. My friend's school had homecoming the Saturday after the first full week of school, and I know that several California school systems have already started.

Yes. Twat-swatting.

Well, if he changed his mind because girls have periods, you might want to find a new crush.
nerdsgetmehot 23
#76 I totally agree. Changing his mind because of something like that is totally silly! It's not like he's going to find a girl who doesn't have a period...
Boygenius50 8
If realizing that you have a period is what changed his mind, is he really worth it?!
supernice 0
or maybe he just felt awkward and was to nervous.

YDI for assuming he was going to ask you to the dance. Sounds like you put 1 and 1 together and got 3.

I dated a guy for over 3 years and we didn't talk about "that time" so it just makes some guys uncomfortable

That's what mothers are there for! Years from now they will just laugh about it. On a side note, if the mother answered for her, then why did she ask the question in the first place?

Thinking the same thing- how do you know he would have asked you out anyway. Flip side, if he was stumbling over asking you, why not ask him?
MrStongray 2
If anything that would have broken the tension and made it easier for him to ask
Luke16eirb7deneuwn1 20
well K wouldn't... I'd be too shy to ask a girl out tho, so I'd never be in that situation in the first place...
