Today, I went on a date I was really enjoying. My ex-boyfriend called halfway through. When I answered, he told me he wanted to get back together and couldn’t stop thinking about me. I didn’t realize my phone was on speaker. My date heard everything. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was video chatting my boyfriend. As we were talking, he answered a phone call. I sat there the whole time as he planned a date with some other girl over the phone. FML
Today, I went on a blind date set up by a friend. Everything was going great until I accidentally called my date by my ex’s name. Twice. My date promptly excused herself to the restroom and never came back. FML
Today, I was eating lunch on my first date with a really pretty girl, when my ex shows up at the same restaurant and starts telling her how bad of a boyfriend I was. My date left. FML
Today, I butt-dialed my ex-boyfriend while venting to my best friend about how hot but emotionally unavailable he is. I realized this when there was a lull in the conversation and I heard his tinny little voice coming out of the phone, saying, "I can hear you." FML
Today, I was invited out to a date by my ex-boyfriend. He seemed really excited to reconnect and kept holding my hand and complimenting how I looked. Out of nowhere a girl runs up to him screaming. It was his current girlfriend, he was using me to make her jealous. FML
Today, my date and I went to the movies. After the date, we were both on an instant chat room at our homes. Her personal message displayed "I think I love my ex again." FML

Today, my friend and I were arguing over whose boyfriend was better. Just as I was about to convince her, my boyfriend rang. Trying to start the perfect conversation, I put him on speaker phone and answered, "Hey Tiger, I was just thinking about you!" He broke up with me on speaker. FML

I don't mean this in an insulting way. Do you have hearing issues? because that is a big difference and don't know how you didn't notice.

Even if you couldn’t hear the difference, how did you not look at your date and not notice he was reacting? Everyone else already asked the big question that I hope op comes back to answer.

Very rude to answer a call while on a date. You deserve to be dumped.

Why would you even answer a phone call halfway through a date? Especially when it was from an ex.

You either still love him or are a super inconsiderate person who thinks you can do what you want 1) answered your phone on a date 2) didn’t care enough to excuse yourself while taking the call 3) on speaker 4) with your ex I wouldn’t be calling you back even if the speaker situation didn’t happen

Shame on you for answering the call, while you were on a date in the first place. That is rude to begin with. You must not have been to bothered by your ex if you answered the call in the first place.

first of all why would you answer your phone while on a date? and how could you not realize immediately you had it on speaker? ydi
