First date hell
Today, a girl asked me out on a date to some hot springs, about 2 hours away. After a mile hike, the springs were finally in sight. She then slipped and cut her shin open. I had carry her the mile back and drive her the 2 hours to the ER, where her parents, whom I'd never met, were waiting. FML

Hey, loom on the bright side! To her you're probably like her hero

Sounds like a good story to tell friends, could be a funny story if you ever end up dating

If you're going to rush to be first comment, at least make it more than one word.

Thank you so much for this comment #1, it adds so much to the emotion of this FML.

I think you're supposed to add sarcasm in brackets or something #10, some people can't seem to grasp the concept.

At least she was ok, I'm assuming.

But after the encounter, ops relationship with the parents became a slipper slope

I realize that 25 was trying to make a pun, but parents usually like it when you make that much of an effort to take care of their child.

Consider yourself lucky man. Not many people get the chance to be a hero to a girl like that. I hope you took off your shirt and wrapped it around the wound.

So what the plan for a 2nd date?

#4, that's what I was thinking. It makes a pretty good first date story.

I agree. And what a cool date! Aside from the injury.

her correction got more thumbs up than most if the other comments... haha

sucks, but maybe she'll see that you're a nice guy and it could lead to more dates, possibly back to the hot springs

Exactly! Once her shin is healed up, you should ask for a do-over date. Unless you spent that mile walk back telling her she'd be easier to carry if she wasn't so fat, she's practically guaranteed to say yes.

Hey, if someone carried me a mile back to bring me to the hospital I would think that's pretty sweet, but that's just me

Yeah, that's totally irrational. Why would I carry my date a mile just over a cut shin? She should have checked herself before she wrecked herself.

It may be more then just a cut shin. A lot is lost within the 300 character limit and OP may be understating it. She probably had a gash on her leg if she had to go to the ER.

"she cut her shin open". to me, that seems like the wound was pretty bad. she probably needed stitches

Great first impression :)

Hey, you're taking care of their daughter OP. Parents love that shit.

That sounds awful, but you're sure to win some points with her parents and her by taking care of her. Look for the positive out of that situation!

Did you seriously just use the same comment on 2 FMLs in a row?
