Today, I met and asked a cute girl out on a date. We decided to meet at a fancy restaurant downtown. When I got there I saw her sitting with what turned out to be her parents. They made a huge scene, calling me a pedophile and a low-life. Apparently, the girl was 16 years-old. I'm 25. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had dinner at a local fast-food joint. There's an employee there that I usually talk to and flirt with, so I thought maybe it was time to ask for her number. After a small conversation and almost getting to the point, she told me, "I'm 17." I'm 23. FML
Today, I went out to meet a wonderful woman I'd chatted with online. I did have a few fears about if she was really just some guy trying to make a fool out of me. When I met her, she really was a girl, and was happy to see me. Problem: she was actually 13. I'm 34. FML
Today, I was on a date with a girl I've had feelings for since I was 14 (I'm 22). I took her out to dinner, then to a movie that we both liked and had a few drinks afterwards. I thought it was going really well until I was driving her home and she asked to be dropped off at her boyfriend's house. FML
Today, while shopping, I saw a little girl and her mom. The girl was pouting so I tried to cheer her up by asking her if she was a princess, because she was so pretty. She smiled but her mom looked at me with disgust and told me to, "Get lost, pedo." I'm a 17-year-old girl. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I went on a date. I went to the bathroom. When I came back, she was sitting at a different table flirting with a guy that looked twice as old as her. FML
Today, I took a girl I like to a local band’s show. She didn’t want to dance with me, and after the show she got the lead singer’s number and planned to hang out the next day. We’re both 24, this kid just turned 19. She told me she was only into men her age or older. FML
Today, I was having dinner with my boyfriend. We'd just got our food when my dad walks in, comes up to our table and says, "I didn't say you could leave, you're too young to be dating him", then drags me out of the restaurant. We are both 15, and it was my first date. FML
Today, I went to a restaurant with some friends. I noticed a very cute waitress about my age, so I walked over to her and asked if she had a boyfriend. The extremely fit, attractive waiter standing next to her immediately turned, held out his hand and goes, "Yeah. Meet me." FML
Today, I went out to dinner with my boyfriend and his mom. The hostess asked if I needed "the kid's menu," remarked how I look "so grown up for your age," and asked what grade I was in. I said I'm in university. She laughed as if it was the best joke ever told. I'm 22. FML
Today, I had a Tinder date with a girl who lied about her age; she was 22 but had told me she was 37. She used the word “like” seven times in the same sentence and and announced she expected me to pay her entire bill. I just walked away, so she threw a waiter's tray at the back of my head. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Does anyone else get irritated when someone is attracted to someone else who is SEXUALLY mature but underage and gets called a pedophile. Do people not get what a pedophile is? There's a difference between perv and pedo.

Strangely, when she's 18, it won't matter you're 9 years ahead. But yes, as Tayrn said, you have to find out. Unless you met in a place where you could mroe safely assume it (bar, college campus, etc), then that's a FYL.

That's only if you have sex though. If nothing sexual happens nothing can really be said, expect that it's a little weird.

hey, if she honestly looked around 18+ then you wouldn't randomly ask someone their age!
qazwerty 5
I always thought you're not supposed to ask a woman her age?
White667 0
Yeah, that xD It all depends on where they met, but if the girl wasn't of age why did she accept the date? Really she should have told him, shouldn't be up to the older person to ask.
jojocircus19 16
No you are not unless you ask and they say for example 30 and then you say what! I would've sworn you were at least 22!

Sadly, many people spend their entire lives trying to look older, then trying to look younger. They try to stay an "ideal" age forever, buuuut... Yeah.

Well... "In law enforcement, the term "pedophile" is generally used to describe those accused or convicted of child sexual abuse or the sexual abuse of a minor, including both prepubescent children and pubescent or post-pubescent adolescents." -Wikipedia So, it's the "correct" term for this particular situation. Hell in this sense someone who is 18 going out with someone who is 17 is a pedo. [shrugs]
DameGreyWulf 1
Ah, is that so? Well, that's enlightening. Though in any case, since the younger is a minor, sexual relations are a no-no is most states.

Them dating probably isn't legal. His putting his Tonka Truck in her playpen in order to dump a load is probably illegal though.

Yeah, age of consent in the UK is 16, but 18 for anal.

Actually...the legal definition of paedophile rather than pervert is someone who has sexual desires of performs sexual acts on a child under 13, and they themselves are at least 16 and at least 5 years older than the victim. This stands because a 16 year old with a 15 year old girlriend could easily be called a paedophile...which would make no sense.

I may have to reply later as my PC just got a virus and won't let me access anything but Facebook and FML...which is a FML I guess. LOL.

actually technically if you're 17 and going out with an 18 year old it's fine, even 16 and 18+. 16 is the legal age where a teenager reaches the maturity to make their own decisions sexually. technically the parents can't interfere (through the law)

Sexually mature =/= emotionally mature

Just because one is sexually mature doesn't that s/he is mentally mature enough for sex. Yes, there are teens who engage in sexual activity, but that doesn't make it appropriate and they often wind up f*d up in more ways than one. I'm not blaming the OP on this one and the case year isn't the age difference, but that she's a teen lacking all her brain cells (which is probably why she hit on an older guy like the OP in the first place) and he's a mature adult.

15, at least in my state, there are laws protecting relationships between minors when one turns 18. For example, my girlfriend and I who are 16 and 17 respectively, can legally have sex when I turn 18 because we have been dating for a certain amount of time and there is less than 2 year gap in our age.

Also, most states have the "age of consent" at 16. That means as long as the person they are doing things with is under 21, it's not illegal. I had to look up all the laws up about this cuz my boyfriend was 16 when I turned 18...

Women won't tell their age. It's like a law of life.

But I think it's okay if they are your sister.

Nope, 'dating' a minor, regardless of age difference, is totally legal in all states. I'm fourteen and my boyfriend is eighteen. However, engaging in sexual activity with anyone under the age of consent in the state you're in, is illegal.

And Bratz are the ***** of the plastic doll world (most are on crack anyways). Oh and by the way, I'm from NC and I think I was there when this happened... I remember I was eating my food (not gonna say what restaurant) when I saw an older couple calling a man (looked in his 20s) a pedophile.... interesting.... Oh and the girl looked about 20 (she was defenitely hot).
