Today, I went on a coffee date with the man I've been in love with for a while. Before I knew what was going on, he'd started chatting up a pretty girl sitting nearby. I had to drink my coffee alone while he got her number. FML

Today, I went to my favorite coffee shop, ordered my usual, smiled at the barista I have a crush on, and confidently said, "You too!" when they told me to enjoy my drink. I have to find a new coffee shop. FML
Today, I had a coffee date. The guy was waiting with coffee to meet me on the patio. I walked up to him, caught my favorite pendant necklace on the table, broke the necklace trying to get it free, and rattled the table so intensely that the guy's coffee spilled all over him. FML
Today, I met my online date at a café. As soon as I walked in, I walked straight up to the wrong person, and launched into a 2-minute ramble about how excited I was to finally meet him. He just blinked and said, “I’m married.” My actual date was sitting right behind me, albeit a similar but not as good looking man. FML
Today, I went on a coffee date with a man I met online. His "friend" had tagged along. We were having a good conversation, until the friend pulls out his laptop and says, "So let me tell you a little bit about our travel business," and talked about a pyramid scheme for an hour. FML
Today, I'm a barista at Starbucks. When my crush walked in and asked how much his coffee would cost, I said a date. He said he'd rather pay for the coffee. FML
Today, I went to grab a coffee at a new café in town. While sipping my coffee, I noticed a man staring at me through the window. I thought he was browsing the menu before I looked up mid-sip to him staring at me in the eye, sucking on his finger. FML
Today, I went on a blind date at a coffee shop. I walked up to who I thought was him, smiled, and said, “Hey! You look even cuter in person!” He looked horrified. It wasn’t my date. My actual date witnessed the whole thing and ghosted me mid-latte. FML
Today, I went out for coffee with my sister and my crush. I spent the majority of the date flirting with my crush, and when he dropped us off at home, I told him I had fun on our date. He looked at me surprised and said he'd thought I'd tagged along on his date with my sister. FML

You didn't stand up for yourself? I'm not saying he has to like you back, but shit... he could at least be respectful.

Even if it wasn't a date, it is still kind of disrespectful to be flirting with someone when you are expecting their company, otherwise what is the point of having a coffee together? I suppose that the OP and her "date" were probably catching up, like a meeting having a coffee. This is not like being in a nightclub.

I'm. With Alex and Kylee on this- your douche date has zero class. Ge flirted with and spotted on someone else, while out with you? Inexcusable. You should've said something - to him, to the other girl (a warning), and then walked out. **** him, not your life.

Were you at Timmies?

They are in Canada, so it's most likely at Timmies. They make boiling hot coffee, perfect for throwing at douche-bags like this person.

Next time just throw the hot coffee at him and leave

OP, you're accepting the love you think you deserve. If you think fighting for this date's love is worth it then go for it. But honestly, you deserve better than a guy flirting with strangers just because they're "pretty". Think long & hard before going on another date with guy.

Throw the coffee in his crotch.

Did he just see you as a friend and you misread his intentions for going for coffee? I dunno thats quite a jerky thing he did and you deserve better than that.

Ever hear of "Mad Money?" It was money girls would keep on them in case their date did something stupid and they needed to get home themselves. It was common for a reason. Nowadays a woman should always be able to get herself home for any reason. That was one reason.
