Today, I went to a dance with the boy I like. To my delight, he tried to pick me up. To my dismay, he couldn't. FML

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, I was at a party. The music changed to a slow dance. Everybody grabbed a partner and I was left on the dancefloor alone. Suddenly, this guy walked up to me. I swore that he was going to ask me to dance. He then said, "Could you hold me my drink?" and went to dance with another girl. FML

Today, a guy I like asked me to a dance. Trying to act modest and at the same time compliment him, I told him, "You could do so much better, though." After thinking for a moment, he replied, "You're right, I could. Never mind," and walked away. FML

Today, I went to my Homecoming dance. I had a great time until some fat girl kept trying to dance with my date, even though he politely asked her to stop. I decided to intervene. I found myself pinned to the floor by a fat girl crushing on my date, who was cheering her on as she tackled me. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I were in my backyard goofing around when he tried to pick me up. He couldn't. I jokingly tried to lift him. I did so without much effort. FML

Today, I was at my senior dance dancing with this guy I really like. He was telling me how he likes a strong woman who's not afraid to make the first move. Empowered by what he said, I asked him out. He said no because he thinks girls shouldn't ask guys out. FML

Rave on
Today, I decided to go to a club with my friends. I was flattered when an attractive guy started dancing with me. Later, I went to grab my money to pay for my dinner and realized while dancing, the very sneaky man pulled my forty dollars out of my pocket. FML

Today, although I can't dance, I decided to go to a club. A really cute girl asked me to dance, and I politely declined. She kept insisting, so I finally said okay. A few minutes in, she stopped, looked at me, and said, "If you're going to make fun of my dancing, I'm leaving." FML

Today, I went to a dance and saw a really cute guy. Glow sticks were everywhere, so trying to be cute, I took a broken one and dripped some of the glowing liquid on my chest. It made him notice me, but only for him to point out that I'd managed to cut myself and was bleeding badly. FML

Nice try
Today, I tried to "trip" and fall into this guy I've had a crush on. I missed and fell on my face. He stepped over me and kept walking. FML

He sounds like a keeper... who gives a crap that he can't lift another person up! Certain people can do certain things better than others. For instanct, I myself can't lift another person up, no matter how much they weigh; but I can throw (any) ball very, very, very far. For all you know, he could be the world's greatest thrower. Besides, the fact that he danced with you probably means he likes you back. Don't screw up your chance.

I remember when my ex tried picking me up and failed, then his little brother who is shorter and thinner picked me up over his head. Point being, just because a guy couldn't pick you up doesn't necessarily mean anything bad on your part, he could just be a weakling.

So what? My boyfriend tried to pick me up once and he dropped me. I took the opportunity to pull him down with me and we made out with me still lying on my back. It was awesome.

Two things here. Either A: he's so weak he can't pick you up. Which is in no means calling you fat. Or B: you are fat and that's why he couldn't pick you up.

If you can pick her up you can take her home

could be a lot worse, such as picking you up then dropping you, injuring you in the process. then you wouldn't want to face him!;)
