Today, I asked the girl who has a crush on me if she was autistic. She replied without hesitation, "I can be whatever you want me to be." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, a girl I'd been crushing on for a little while and I were talking about autism. Some of the last words she said were "I try to not find autistic people so fucking annoying, but I can't help it. But can you blame me?” I'm autistic. FML
Today, during my first date with a girl I've liked for awhile, she tells me about some minor disabilities she was born with. Wanting to be honest with her too, I tell her I'm slightly autistic. Her response was, "I'm sorry this isn't going to work. I can't date a retard." I had to eat alone after that. FML
Today, I asked a girl out. She replied, "Sorry, I'm suddenly a lesbian." FML
Today, I finally went on a date with a girl I've been talking to for 2 years. She is my dream girl, picture perfect and I love her with all my heart. So I asked her, half jokingly, if I was her dream guy. Her reply? "Don't ask me something you don't want to hear the answer of." FML
Today, after three weeks of putting it off, I decided to ask out the girl I've had a major crush on since third grade. When I told her, she smiled, but then quickly said, "But aren't you gay?" FML
Today, I asked the girl I am in love with out on a date. She asked me for my name. FML
Today, I asked out a girl that I've liked for a while. She thought I was joking and laughed, saying, "No. Have you met yourself?" FML
Today, I was interviewing a woman for a job. She told me that she may need days off because of her artistic son. I jokingly replied, "Does he color on the walls or something?" She then stared at me with a weird look on her face. Autistic, her son is autistic. FML
Today, my wife, in all seriousness, told me she believed I am autistic. With all due respect to autistic people out there, WTF? FML
Today, my therapist mentioned we should look into the possibility of me being autistic. When telling my boyfriend what she'd said, he replied, “I don’t think you’re autistic, just damaged.” FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Firstly why would you ask her that? Secondly autistic people tend to say the truth and don't necessarily know how to flirt and lastly why tf have you posted a new FML, it seems to me you're an attention seeker and both of your posts never happened as you posted in the space of 2 weeks

You are both ignorant. I don't understand why everyone has to use the words autism and autistic to ask someone if they are stupid, dumb, or ignorant. Many people on the autism spectrum are highly intelligent. The fact that people call one another "autistic" as an insult only shows their complete ignorance.

I have a disability and I can tell you that autistic/autism is nothing to be ashamed of saying, i know many autistic people are really clever same with my disability, i have a learning disability also and people assume I'm dumb and the funny thing is when people don't know about my disability and call me retard but i tell them I have a disability it's so sad how their mood/actions change and say sorry

It sounds like you’re just a bully making fun of a girl who, at best, was nervous and, at worst, suffers from a neurological disorder that she will struggle with for the rest of her life.

I have a disability myself and I'd rather someone ask me if I have a disability instead of just calling me a retard and then when i say yes i am, they say they're sorry, there's nothing wrong with being a retard but calling someone it without knowing they're one frustrates me, no one should use it as a derogatory term!

OP here, i just want to say I have a disability and if someone asked me if I'm disabled I'd say yes because it's nothing to be ashamed off so therefore shouldn't be seen as disrespectful or ignorant! The reason this is an FML is because I was asking her and she downright flirted with me, take a hint b**** I'm not interested!

Well, if her crush on you is unwanted, there are sensitive/diplomatic ways to let her know you are not interested. If you really wondered and you asked in a positive manner then good for you. If not, that is probably the reason why you are the lonely asian.

You can't go up and ask someone "are you disabled?" You're a rude f***

people have asked me and I'm perfectly fine with it, what I'm not fine with is when someone calls me a retard then i say I am one but they say 'sorry' wouldn't they say sorry if I wasn't disabled?

Why would you ask someone that? Considering your bad question, you deserved a much worse response than the one you got

I'm disabled myself and I'd rather someone ask me if I was rather then call me a retard then say sorry when i tell them I am slow, wouldn't they have said sorry if I wasn't disabled?
