Today, while out for lunch, a guy approached me and asked for my number. I politely declined. To my dismay, he dropped to his knees, grabbed his head, and started moaning about how nobody ever gives him a chance. I felt the accusing stares. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had a very good-looking guy ask for my number while I was at work, but due to our policies I had to turn him down. FML
Today, I was having lunch at a cafe. There was an attractive guy looking at me from another table. I smiled back and gave a little wink. A minute later he approached me. I introduced myself and asked if he wanted my number. He said, "Um, no but what are you eating? It looks really good" FML
Today, a guy asked for my number at the grocery store, but I politely told him I wasn't interested. He followed me home and took a shit on my doorstep. FML
Today, while at the supermarket, a complete stranger ran up to me, got down on his knee and confessed his love for me. He was obviously mentally unstable, so I gently declined. He started crying very loudly in front of everyone. I still don't have a clue who he was. FML
Today, I saw a ridiculously hot guy dining with his family. I decided not to flirt with him with his parents around but to ask his sister (who went to the restroom) to give him my phone number. When I came back, I saw her pointing a finger at me, and the whole family turning around and staring. FML
Today, I was working at the mall as the girl that stands around giving out samples of the foods. This guy came up to me and we were flirting for at least 30 minutes. With the tray in one hand, I gave him my cell to put his number in it. He ran away with my phone. FML
Today, I saw a cute girl working register at my regular coffee shop and politely asked the her for her number. I was brutally rejected. A few minutes later, a douchebag with a popped collar approached her with a cheesy pickup line and left with not only her number, but a free frappe. FML
Today, I was out to dinner with a friend I had a crush on. The whole time, he was flirting with the waitress while I was trying to get him to notice me. When we got the check, he looked at her and said, "She's not my girlfriend, I only go out with pretty girls. So, can I have your number?" FML
Today, I offered my phone number to the guy I've been flirting back and forth with all week. He said no. FML
Today, I met a really cute guy at work. He asked for my number, and I wrote it down on a piece of paper. After looking at the paper, he crumpled it up, yelled "Do you think I'm stupid? I know the rejection hotline when I see it", and walked away. It was my real phone number. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Find someone giving you the glare and say "hey, that person over there looks like she'd give you a chance."

peer pressure at its finest.

You are obligated to give him what he wants so YDI.
wisedemons 2
YDI. He asks you out and gets rejected. You get accusing stares as a result of your own actions. Sounds fair to me.

So you're saying I can't decline a random guy's/gal's request to have my number? I thought I could make my own decisions, but apparently not.

AestheticGuy 21
I'm pleasantly surprised! I was totally expecting a myriad of dumb pathetic 'Maybe you should give him a chance' comments.

Or he needs to talk to a psychologist about self esteem issues.

She should have just told everybody she was already engaged to someone :)
whyamievenhere 11
She shouldn't have to tell anyone anything. No should be enough. But people are assholes.
Mads_1234 28
Or the OP could give him the number to Pizza Hut/ rejection hotline.
ZeroPath5 16
Well...as sad as that is, you can't really give in to stuff like that...A no simply means no.
littlem91 29
Sad? I think downright creepy is now accurate!
ZeroPath5 16
Eh I wouldn't say creepy myself. It would be creepy if he grabbed OPs leg and begged or something along those lines, but he was just sad and crying over it.
deepunder 17
I wonder which number you are. 35?200?

Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen, he was #1

I genuinely wish I could up vote you more than once. Thanks for brightening my day!

He sounds like a pussy, but it's unfortunate you had to be the bearer of glares

Perdix, leave OP alone! At least, I assume it was you.
Welshite 40
No, it wasn't perdix. Perdix would have walked up to the girl, dramatically removed his ever-present sunglasses, and made a crude joke about his sexual prowess. It works for him every time.
anythingmustbe 18
Perdix doesn't even have sex. By simply talking about his sexual prowess the woman becomes pregnant.

#7, never ASSUME, or you will make an ASS out of U and ME. And I make an ASS out of ME just fine without any help. Getting a number is not my M.O., if a girl hasn't fled in horror or disgust, I try to seal the deal then and there, and not give her time to think things through.

#18, just my luck! The DNA match and the court-ordered child support payments without the sexual gratification. Yay, me!

18, I am pretty sure perdix is smart enough to make sure that his freedom of speech is protected. His smooth tongue may get the ladies going but I doubt he would risk creating junior perdi (that's plural for perdix, grammar nazis, not a typo).
KazuTrumpet1512 21
I'm pretty sure it would be Perdices.
anythingmustbe 18
Well maybe it is because he is such a big baby. Tell him to man the **** up and then maybe he will be able to get a date.
saIty 17
1) Get a puppy 2) Name him Chance 3) Give him Chance 4) He finally gets a Chance
vipirius 18
That joke has been used more times than your moms *****.
anythingmustbe 18
Woah dude. Chill the **** out.

If you're looking for my comeback you can scrape it off of your mother's teeth

You didn't make a joke about dinkleberg???

Does anyone have cold water I can borrow?
