Today, I found out that instead of going on a date with a girl I've liked for months, I'm going to be forced to have lunch with my grandmother tomorrow. Instead of losing my virginity, I will get to be interrogated about why I'm single. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I've been single for so long my grandmother had to ask if I actually like women or not. FML
Today, I lost a bet with my grandma, and now she's coming with me on my next date. FML
Mammy's boy
Today, I went on a first date with a guy I met online. We hit it off, and he invited me back to his place. As soon as we got there, his mother came out of nowhere and started interrogating me about "my intentions." FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he couldn't spend the day with me as he had his grandmother's funeral. Lonely, I went shopping and I bumped into his mum having lunch with his 'dead' grandma. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went to visit his grandparents. Everything went well, until his grandmother approached me and asked me if I wanted to try some of her old bras. I didn't want to be rude, so I went with her. Most awkward moment of my life. FML
Today, my grandmother introduced me to her friends as her 16-year-old granddaughter "who has never been kissed." FML
The gays
Today, I called my grandmother to wish her a happy Valentine's Day. She asked me if I had a date lined up. I didn't, and before I could explain why, she responded with, "Well, maybe all the other gays went on vacation!" Thanks Grandma, I'm not gay. FML
Today, I found out that my girlfriend of two years broke up with me because she wants to "become" a lesbian. I also learned that she's coming to my house for dinner tonight. My sister is her date. FML
Run for the hills
Today, I found out why my fiancé waited for me to meet his family. We had dinner at their place, the women were not permitted to talk while the men were in the room, also no eye contact with the men, and we had to eat separately. He says he wants me to learn to be a good and decent wife from them. FML
My ears!
Today, I'm staying with my grandmother and overheard her having phone sex. FML

Why do you assume she would have sex with you?

Ditch that and go on the date
BntyHntrSeattle 30
"Hopefully" she has alzheimers and OP can send a friend instead!
SkoomaKi 28
Or set her up with a date of her own if she isn't still married. Keep her occupied while OP does his deed. #13 - I wouldn't wish that..
BntyHntrSeattle 30
24- I know; that's why it's in quotation marks. You know, to indicate the sarcasm?
mikeofthunder 13
We can just say that since his grandmother is likely to lecture about a lack of companionship, she'd understand him choosing a date over her
herecomestheFMLs 12
So, you like a girl for months, then get to finally hangout with her. You automatically assume your going to get laid? You are going to be a virgin forever, but for more reasons then your grandma.
sens3sfailing 25
Also, unless the girl is a bitch, I'm sure she we would be understanding enough to reschedule the date. If she isn't willing to, then she was probably never worth the time.
buck33 14
13 - Hopefully have alzheimers? That's messed up. Alzheimers is a terrible disease.
ambear26 14
Girls come and go but you are lucky you still have your grandmother OP! Don't take advantage of the times you'll miss with her.
BntyHntrSeattle 30
96- please see the previous comment of mine; thanks.

I don't think he even has to ditch. His granny seems so keen on seeing him in a relationship that she'd let him off the hook if he just explained it to her. Unless of course his parents are the one forceing him, then I seriously doubt that he would have got laid.
ShyAnn29 15
My grandma has Alzheimer's, and it's terrible, I know you were being sarcastic, but it's still not funny!
BntyHntrSeattle 30
150- As you said, I was trying to use sarcasm; but I honestly do see the error in my comment, and apologize. My friend's grandmother had dementia and couldn't even recognize anyone near the end. Sorry to all I offended. :
wetofour 7
If OP is still a virgin I'm pretty sure he won't lose it on the first date anyway, even considering there's a small chance she would "give it up."
DynamicDave 11
You could still lose your virginity...

202- Is that an innuendo for incest??
Ilikeurfmls 13
Why do you assume she would have sex with you?
ShawnzieNstuff 6
I like the confidence but he was definitely not getting laid. Haha
doctorhook86 25
This FML smells like it was written by someone under age 20...
flutter4 7
Yeah She probably wouldn't sleep with you after one date... But then again maybe she would have. You will never know now
LittleGreenPaola 23
Most of all, someone who's forced to lunch with his grandmother, seems not that kind of guy who gets laid at the first date!
noelykins1 19
You ever think that maybe not only was he liking her for months but also had been seeing her for awhile?
Ilikeurfmls 13
Because he probably would have said his girlfriend or something similar.
p3mguin 7
Number 76 is right, the could be seeing each other. You people are hypocrites, you say don't make assumptions on other FMLs. Yet you make one here that it was their first date.
Arthurie 30
83 - First of all.. they*. And not necessarily these people say to not assume on an FML. I wouldn't fling names around, if I were you, unless you have a legit reason for it. I fail to find your reason.
ManInTheMachine 20
p3mguin: Are you not assuming that they've been seeing each other for a while? Pot calling the kettle black, hmm? Besides, it's impossible NOT to make assumptions on FML. Just by voting FYL, we're assuming that OP is the victim, when they very well could've caused the situation. Yes, some assumptions are more far-fetched than others, but in this case, one guess is as good as another.

Beat me too it
marshmelo17 5
Maybe OP's date was a hooker and it took him months to save enough money for their "date" ...
silverstream20 20
Nowadays most people assume first date equals sex. Gone are the times when we would get to know people first before jumping in the sack. Sad really
atarisrocks 6
Maybe she going to have no choice
DK1234567 8
One word RAPE
Snackycake 20
Well, there are two possibilities: •She's either a *****. •Or some serious date rape was about to go down.
ImaginaryFoe 1
Lunch date doesn't usually mean sex for someone you've been "liking" for months versus "seeing" for months. I think we may have discovered why you're still single. Is it really so difficult to call up the girl and tell her your grandmother is in town and ask to reschedule? Many people think valuing time with family is a good character trait and most others will at least understand it's unavoidable. You could've rescheduled for an evening date and increased your chances.
Marcella1016 32
76 and 84 - Ever heard of context clues? It's something we learn about in school. It is heavily implied by the wording of the FML that it's a first date. Rather than bashing all the people who agree, try scrolling up and reading the FML again. And make sure you try reading between the lines, too.
noelykins1 19
^ I have read it several times, it is possible they may have been seeing each other and or liking one another for a while. Also they could of gone on a date before and maybe they made out. So just maybe he was expecting to get laid on the second date. It is possible. So please don't advise me to do something when you can't even think of any other options.
Arthurie 30
Bah. Meant to reply to 84 on my comment. /fail whale
noelykins1 19
Oh and OP did say he has liked her for months which could give another clue. It can e interpreted in all sorts of ways.
tinysocks 11
So glad for being married...i know they aren't but it sounds like most women under 25 have decided whoring themselves for dinner and drinks is a good way to discover yourself and get ahead in life...
doctorhook86 25
135: Untrue, unless the only dates you go on involve slutty chicks and alcohol. Normal people don't expect sex on the first date. Now as for the third date, all bets are off.
anon80214 15
**** blocked by granny.
Psych101 9
You'd be surprised how often it happens.
dougiewhale 6
Granny should be guiding his ****, not blocking it, lol.
zandalee 20
Ewwww bad mental image!!!

Comment moderated for rule-breaking.
I thought the answer was obvious, the reason you're single is Clearly your horrible disfigurement, I mean really! What else could it be?
Mauskau 36
Talking from personal experience?
Benlop_fml 15
Looking at your profile picture, I think you've had first hand experience?

Nice people skills you have

you look like you are a result of incest
monique8axel 6
What an asshole! :o
Llama_Face89 34
Meh it was a joke. Lay off her.
laden_swallow09 35
We understand it was a joke. She doesn't understand it wasn't funny for the rest of us, and apparently neither do you.
xcarxcrashx 9
103 obviously she attempted to make a joke. Aren't we past that point where that's funny?
gracehi 33
I thought it was kinda funny. Guess I must have a terrible sense of humor. :'(
namyo 13
Answer with "because I was forced to come see you instead of going on a date!"
Redoxx_fml 22
So sex is guaranteed?
muzy 23
I know what you think! It's not a walker, at least I don't think it is...

lolwut

If she's a *****, probably.
TriflingAllDay 6
Yes having sex always means *****. I forgot. Also I suppose he is a male *****.
ohmandapants 17
^ No, he's a virgin.
carminecris89 13
It is if you bring chloroform.
Kiki242 19
You should cherish your time with your grandmother. There will be other girls.
BntyHntrSeattle 30
"Even IF she's a woman stealing bitch." ;)
xKandaxYuux 8
Seriously 18...just no. You're trying too hard to be "funny" and it's obviously not working for you.
AH1Zviper 15
Your comment is nowhere near as smart as the guy in your profile photo. Try one of the Jonas brothers.
BntyHntrSeattle 30
To both people who replied: I am a classical pianist, and thusly, enjoy Beethoven. I commented just like everybody else, and was quite offended by your comments. The thumbs down button should be sufficient; putting others down is unneccessary. Thanks.
silverstream20 20
Yeah but your comment was neither funny or insightful and the comments that came were people pointing that out to you also it's not their fault you were offended. It's as you say, they were commenting like everyone else.
Lennes 12
122, I'm very impressed. It's so rare on here to find someone defending them self without looking like a bigger jackass than before.
BntyHntrSeattle 30
147- If that truly was sincere, thank-you :)
xKandaxYuux 8
122- The previous comment that you had made, was just asking for it really. Now, I only really said you were trying too hard, not sure what's so offensive about that. But, maybe next time just think the comment over before displaying it on the internet. Because there are people out there who will do a better job at offending you than myself.
BntyHntrSeattle 30
136- I apologize for the fact that I didn’t comment with sole purpose of pleasing you. Also, just because you haven’t been ‘delightful,’ I thought I would point out that you should have said, “neither funny NOR insightful.” Grammar is important when one insults another.
BntyHntrSeattle 30
149- I’ll take the veiled sentiment… thanks?
silverstream20 20
Not that it matters to me but yeah I was not trying to insult you at all. I was merely talking about the quality of the comment which I thought was inappropriate. If you feel that it was directed at you personally then I apologize.
BntyHntrSeattle 30
Things are always hard to fully grasp over the internet. Thanks for the apology, though. :)
mzrobinson 13
Then make your date for dinner? Duh.
flutter4 7
Makes sense
etoilenuit 15
Really. Dinner dates are better anyway.
Welshite 40
One date and you expect to have sex? Not to mention it's the girl you like. Maybe I'm old-school but I don't treat women like that. Respect them, and they love you for it.
FtP_Benihana 0
Chivalry!
sens3sfailing 25
It lives! Thank god!
Tanner1245 4
simple solution: reschedule the date. then you can spend time with family and go on your date but don't expect it to happen on the first date. Not all girls are easy and respect her go on a few dates and get to know her it will be better for you then.
ebonyirony 29
I feel like chivalry isn't dead but it's haemorrhaging terribly.
HiddenValley 5
I totally agree. But in this day and age it's the guys who don't respect girls who are constantly getting laid. I just don't understand. But either way I will always respect girls.
kirbeaar 19
It's nice to see guys who genuinely care. I know far too many guys who treat women like a piece garbage.
kirbeaar 19
Piece of*
awilso13 8
No they don't, they love assholes. Only until there about thirty and are tired of dealing with that do they finally look for the "nice guy". Even then they still prefer assholes sometimes; they think they will be the "one" to make him change for some reason.
HotPotat0 8
Reschedule? How hard is that? You've waited for months so why not another couple days? Besides it's your grandma, however she is.
