Today, I decided to do something nice and compliment a stranger. I told a girl that I liked her skirt and that it looked good on her. She just rolled her eyes at me and said, "I'm not gay". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I talked to a girl I like. I tried to make her jealous by telling her I had a "thing" going with another girl. She looked deeply into my eyes and said, "Wait, aren't you gay?" FML
Today, I was shopping at a supermarket. As I was about to pay for my items, I noticed the cashier was very cute. Trying to be nice, I smiled. She smiled back and said, "Hello, how are you?" Instead of saying, "I'm good" or, "I'm okay", I said, "I'm gay". FML
Today, I worked up the courage to ask out the girl I liked. I got her a nice bracelet for her birthday and asked her on a date when I gave it to her. "Aww, you're so sweet!" was the response to the gift. Her response to the date proposal? "Wait, you aren't gay?" FML
Today, I told a girl that I liked her. She replied, "Don't." FML
Today, I asked a girl out. She replied, "Sorry, I'm suddenly a lesbian." 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 out the girl I really like. She turned me down, saying that she's a lesbian. That'd be fine, if I were a guy. FML
Today, I complimented a girl on her stockings pattern. Turns out she wasn't wearing stockings. FML
Today, I decided to come out to a co-worker. She looked at me, then laughed, and said, "You can't be gay, you're fat!" FML
Today, I asked out a coworker I really like. She gave me a weird look and said, "You're not gay?" I said no, to which she said, "Well, I am". As it turns out, I was the only one who thought she was straight, and the only one who thought I was straight. FML

You are lucky you are a girl. If I told a dude I didn't know that his jeans made his ass look great I would probably get a punch in the mouth.

I don't think those situations are comparable. She complimented a piece of clothing, while you would be complimenting a guys ass. Saying a skirt looks great on someone would be more akin to you telling a guy his shirt looks awesome on him. I've seen guys compliment each other like that and no one gets punched in the face.

Shouldn't it have been, "Your father or husband made a good choice letting you wear that"?

So? She may got hit on all the time with such comments and is fed up with it, who knows. Anyway if you're going to say something to someone that is unsolicited , compliment or not be prepared for what ever is said back and don't cry about it.

You have no idea what being polite or nice is about, do you? People should compliment people just because a lot of the time it makes people happy, even for only a moment before the negativity seeps back in. Pieces of shit like you who don't understand politeness is why the world is a pit of misery. I can't compliment a stranger because it's unsolicited? How do you even solicite for a person to say "Hey, your skirt is pretty and looks good on you! I hope you have a great day!" ????

Knowing the place your talking about I am assuming it's really hard to find girls in skirt... or may be she has been mocked before since most of the ppl wear black veils abaya there. So maybe she misunderstood you.
