Today, I realized that when a girl asks what your plans are for Valentine's Day and you say, "Nothing" and she responds with, "Oh, I don't have any plans either", it means she wants you to take her out. It took me three months to figure that out. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I asked a girl what time she'd like me to pick her up for our date tonight. She didn't know what I was talking about. It seems like, after months of sweaty palms, nervous smiles, and awkward sentences, I only dreamed she said yes to going out. FML
Today, two days after sending her flowers for Valentine's Day, my dream girl asked me on a date. She didn't show up. Her boyfriend did though. FML
Today, I asked the girl I'm madly in love with out to dinner. When she asked me if I would pay, I jokingly said, "Well, that depends on how the date goes." She looked me up and down and said, "No thanks then." FML
Today, I asked a girl I liked what she was doing tomorrow night. She replied, "Cleaning, so nothing really." I then asked her out to dinner. She declined. FML
Today, the girl I’ve had a crush on for months told me she scored a Tinder date and she’s so excited to go out with him. Just last week, I worked up the courage to ask her to be my girlfriend and she told me she doesn’t want a relationship, and “doesn’t believe in love anymore.” FML
Today, after trying really hard to impress a girl and thinking everything was going the right way, hugs, kisses and chatting every night, and trying to spend as much time together, I get told, "I don't know what I want, but I know what I don't want." Meaning me. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me that she didn't know we were actually dating. FML
Today, I went out with a girl, I paid for the drinks, and thought everything went well, even though I didn’t make a move, I guess I wanted to take it slow. I texted later to invite her to a private beach next week, only for her to reply that she’s not gonna be available for the next few weeks because her boyfriend is coming to visit. FML
Today, I realized the reason I was asked to babysit 3 weeks ago for Feb 14 was because the old married couple with kids safely assumed that I wouldn't have a Valentine. FML
Today, the girl I've had a crush on for a year finally said she'd go out with me. On the way over to pick her up, she called me and said she couldn't go because she was going out to dinner with her ex-boyfriend to talk things over. She asked if she could use the reservations I had made. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Yeah, better late then never.

sometimes things just dont click. we dont apply it as being interested, but more towards making conversation. i hope you can redeem yourself and just take her out anyway. if shes still interested she will say yes. good luck :-)

So after I did a girl I friend zoned her. Found out 14 months later that she still had major feelings for me. Didn't know until she straight up told me (after I had already told her I felt about another girl). So don't feel too bad about it. Girls are weird.

Yeah a lot of girls are "read between the lines" type. Something similar happened to me and I had no idea she had feelings. But ask her out now. Maybe you can salvage it

#92 you just suck

sucking is the girls job actually
nana_star 27
#116 so start sucking. It ain't gonna suck itself.

35 - that's so not true. I feel bad for your gf's if you dont even return the favor
nlm92 15
But yeah! It's not too late. Explain how clueless you were. Likely she will find it endearing!

and write on a card: "Sorry I'm so oblivious.. Be my belated valentine?"
Bano360 25
Not obvious at all because the same thing happened to me. I asked the girl out and I got rejected.

Then re-do it! Ask her out for dinner or something and make it all Valentine-like romantical :) Better late than never!

May be a little too late

Not too late to try!

Nice month-related pun.

I might be a little early for this but June know where I'm heading with this one. If you say you don't, then July-ing.

That was terrible...

A for effort though

That was awesome #41, i liked it

Better luck next time

Explain to her your mistake jokingly and take her out to dinner now.

He should just ask her out without explaining anything.. She might be turned off by the fact that he got her extremely obvious hint 3 months later.
spoo 24
And cut back on the selfies... otherwise you may have caught this in the first place

Always next year

You should do something really sweet, like get her a late V-day card and write "sorry it took me so long, i had to find the perfect card" on the inside.
Jiplo 18
Just make sure it is the best Valentine's Day card ever. Since you've "waited" this long, you have to go over-the-top. Otherwise, it may appear as if you got the first Valentine's Day card you could find, and that may not go too well.
outoftown 27
At his rate, it might take him 'til next Valentine's Day to find the right card.
nlm92 15
Best bet is to make your own card

Ask her what her plans are for friday night. But this time I suggest when she says nothing, you ask her out.

Better late than never...?

Unless it's an unplanned pregnancy in which case being late isn't a good thing.

You done goofed.

God knows why we women must be so complex... Perhaps this girl has learnt something too. It's not 1955 - we girls can actually ask guys out!!!

This actually happened to me. A girl was really interested in me but never showed it. I was a bit interested, but since she acted a bit cold around me I threw the idea away. Later found out that she believed that it was the mans job to work hard to court the lady in question. She refused to even give me a hint, because as a man, that was my job. She got really upset about it aswell and angry at me....
