Today, I dressed up for a date. After waiting for hours, sending countless texts and voice mails to my date, and thinking I'd been stood up, I remembered my date is actually scheduled for tomorrow. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had a date with a girl. Wanting to make a good impression, I spend a lot of time getting ready and by the time I get to the place we were supposed to meet she isn't there anymore. I call her to see where she is. She's in bed with another guy and says "I was REALLY waiting for you". FML
Today, I woke up very excited because I was going on my first date with this guy I really liked. I dressed very nicely and went to where we were supposed to meet. I waited for about 2 hours. I called him to ask him where he was. He got angry because he was still sleeping and I woke him up. FML
Today, I was supposed to go on a date with a guy I really like. My friends convinced me that he was going to stand me up and that I should just stay home to avoid being hurt. He showed up; I didn't. My friends laughed at my gullible nature. FML
Today, my wardrobe door jammed, and I couldn't change out into some nice clothes for my date. On the way there, my car broke down. Not wanting to be late and make a bad impression, I scuttled the rest of the way, only to find I'd been stood up. FML
Today, I went on a first date with a guy I met online. I arrived early and waited for him for over an hour. When he finally showed up, he was wearing the exact same outfit as me. FML
Today, after weeks of being hounded to go out on a date with this guy, I finally found the time and invited him over, fully intending to hook up. He stood me up. FML
Today, I went on an online date. I'd spent a while getting ready and making sure I looked good. When I arrived at the café, I saw my date and approached with a smile. He stood up, looked me over, and said, "Oh, I thought you were your profile picture’s friend." Then left. FML
Today, I prepared for my first date in two years. I shaved my legs, did my hair and nails, painted my face, found the perfect outfit, then waited for hours for a man who never came. FML
Today, I spent ages getting dressed up for a date I’ve been excited for. I even put on cologne for the first time in forever. When I arrived at the restaurant, I realized I had forgotten my wallet. I spent the entire meal pretending to be “really into the conversation” while internally panicking about how I was going to pay. It didn't end well. FML
Today, I got stood up on a date. To add insult to injury, meeting up was her idea. FML

Think positive, OP! At least you know that if he comes by tomorrow, he's a good. . . sensible. . . understanding. . . (and the list goes on, and on) guy.
ClassyCommando 13
Or he just really wants to get laid.

Good job, you've completely freaked your date out.

No , no you don't have a date tomorrow too. After what you did today, i doubt you'll have one tomorrow. FYL

41 It is a girl...

I used to be nucking futs. Then I learned to spell.
DrewFluIngle 10
Am I the only that read the nucking futs comment as ******* nuts? xD
hayyyyleyyyybaby_fml 14
am I the only one besides 87 who has seen the movie Dickie Roberts...???? sure, it was a lame comment, but not a misspelling.

Yikes dat does seem* desperate

I'm wondering why #41 got thumbed up and #82 got thumbed down. #82 isn't wrong, OP is a woman. Anyway OP, better luck with the next guy. Even if someone does flake on you, don't send them countless texts and leave voice mails- it tends to freak people out. If you really have to, one will do, no point in wasting more money than that.

Because 41 was most likely in response to 29's comment referring to OP's date, not OP. And thus, 82 was thumbed down.
fthku 13
I assumed it was a follow-up comment to #1 and #9, but it does seem more likely to be in reply to #29. Thanks for clearing that up.

Wow. Great time management...

I am imagining the man in your profile picture saying this, haha. Only, in my imagination, he is holding a pipe in his hand and occasionally taking a few puffs of it while talking.
DirtyMike911 0
When you say "the man" in the "picture" you mean me right? That was my Grad Class of 1969 picture just in case you were unaware...
Annpop 1
Holyy no way that mustache is epic ;D
lilrocker90 10
But It says in your profile that you are a girl

Hohoho! Sorry for the delayed reply you energetic youngsters! It seems that I have gotten into trouble! Anywho, thank-you for the compliments and yes; Iam a man, yet I'm a miss. And Iam also negative in age. Hahaha!

It's called Benjamin Button syndrome, I believe.

The man in 18's picture is, in fact, US General Ambrose Burnside. Side burns were named after him, so it makes sense that he would have such an awesome mustache.

But not your shift key. :)
ycrem0n 21
it's funny because OP went on a "date" on the wrong "date" haha, anyone? no? ಠ.ಠ
MoodyBlue320 11
The only thing that seems off is the fact that he didn't reply to any of OP's messages, lol.

#51 he probably knows she's blond....
legit_shit15 2
obviously this person isn't much of catch. someone who cares would have responded don't ya think?
KiddNYC1O 22
Troll dates must be avoided.
Ins0mau 20
They were probably at work or something. I know I'm not allowed to use my phone at work.
alinka_fml 0
no it doesnt mean they would have responded. not everyone is glued to their phone and gets a chance To answer right away. sometimes I don't respond to my bf for hours. I could be sleeping, studying, or out with my friends somewhere loud where you can't hear the phone.
mpsteve137 15
Whoa you sound way desperate. Guys don't like it

Well hi Josh I'm from Chicago and on behalf of the FML community and the Internet we don't give a ****. Don't be a creep. :D

After 17 "where r u???" texts and 15 "I can't believe you stood me up!!" voicemails, I think your chances of a second date are poor. He might be, possibly, perhaps, just a bit, completely ******* scared of you now.
Drigr 9
Yeah, I was reading the fml thinking to myself "umm. whether the date is tomorrow or not, wouldn't the date have responded."
micahsmommy 13
Drigr- He may have not responded because he was busy tonight. Hence the date was scheduled for tomorrow. I know I can't have my mobile phone on me at work so you could call or text me all I night and I'd never know it.
brianjman14 23
I was thinking the same thing, Doc. I bet her date really WILL stand up her up now.

Hey your famous on FML. Good job man.
coried91 28
71- Did you seriously just now notice that?
The_Hitdude 12
I think 71 is either: a.) Trolling b.) A complete idiot c.) REALLY new to this site For his sake I'm hoping it's C.
buck33 14
77 - I think C. 71 - *you're (get used to it) And welcome to FML.
bigAC 6
Not anymore!!!!
Paris25_fml 11
Haha, I'm sure this kind of thing has happened to many. Maybe not to this degree but being so excited for something that you forget what day it is. It's ok op, your date will think you're really interested in them now!
kittenvks 11
Or a stalker :)
fishface517 10
Yes! OP's date may become paranoid- and need their mother to take them to therapy, where their mother will say "I'm disappointed in the fact my child can only find crazy people to date!"
demonmonkey 13
13 Your pic is amazing!!!
Paris25_fml 11
Yea haha, yours too! I saw the picture and thought "Why would so many people take cover behind one vehicle?" But then I read the caption and it all made sense.
