Today, I finally worked up enough courage to ask out the guy I've had a crush on for months. I texted him, and he thought I was Maddy from work, not Maddie his neighbor. Now he and the Maddy from his work are dating. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I finally got the courage to ask out the guy I've liked for a long time. He's a cashier at a grocery store. It was about 1am and I was his last customer, everything seemed just right. Just when I was about to ask him to the movies, a drunk girl stumbles in and asks him out. He said yes. FML
Today, I asked out this girl at work who I've had a crush on for a while. She looked oddly familiar, aside from the fact that we worked together. It was almost like we'd met outside of work. Two hours and one Snapchat story later, I realized I'd asked out my best friend's girlfriend. FML

Today, I finally got the courage to ask out the girl I’ve had a crush on for years. I was so nervous, I got confused and sent her a text meant for my best friend that said, "I’m about to ask her out.

Today, a guy who I was low-key crushing on asked me out. I excitedly told my best friend, as I do when I have big news. She informed me that the same guy asked her out 15 minutes ago. He'd originally been into her and only came to me because she rejected him. FML

You should have told him face to face so he won't get mixed up.

Why would you try to start a PERSONAL relationship with something IMPERSONAL like a text? If you did it in person you wouldn't have this problem...

No offense... but YDI. You don't text someone asking if they want to go out, you do so in person. Especially if you are neighbors.

I am sorry to hear that, however this just shows that when it comes to matters of the heart, conversations should be done in person and not via text or email.

Hang on, how did you know that your text was the reason they got together. They could've been flirting for months and he could've asked her, this might all be a coincidence (?)
