The sad truth
Today, on a first date with a guy, I spilled ice cream all over my pants. He bought me some more, and as I was thanking him, he said, "You've never had a guy treat you right, have you?" I said no and started crying. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was at work at an ice cream shop when a hot guy came in and started chatting me up. I got him his ice cream and as I handed it to him, he mentioned that I was cute and walked away. Then I realised he hadn't paid for the ice cream, and I didn't even get a date out of it. FML
Today, I was hanging out with a friend at an ice cream place, and a guy started chatting with us. As he eventually went to leave, he told me, "That's a nice looking date you got there." Then he turned to my friend. "Wish I could say the same to you." FML
Today, I went on a date with someone I'd met online. Everything was going surprisingly well, until I knocked over my drink, spilling it all over my date's lap. In a panic, I blurted out, "Dude, did you piss yourself?" Needless to say, there will be no second date. FML
Today, I was on a date with a guy I've been crushing on. In the middle of the dinner, he said he had to go get something from his car. When I asked what it was, he smiled and said it was a surprise. I waited for my surprise for half an hour. Then I decided to pay the bill and go home and cry. FML
Today, I walked into the bathroom only to see my boyfriend sitting on the floor eating ice cream, crying. I'd say I was shocked, but this isn't the first time it's happened. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I went out for ice cream. We somehow started talking about which of our relatives had died. Right when she was talking about how her grandfather had died, I started laughing. She had gotten ice cream all over her face. She broke up with me. FML
Today, I went on a first date with a guy. As soon as we sat down at the restaurant, he immediately snatched my menu and said "You're having salad." FML
Today, I was on a date with my boyfriend when he suddenly got down on one knee and proposed. A waiter tripped over him and spilled our food all over him. FML
Today, during our date, I burst into tears like a nutjob because out of the 10 or so guys I’ve gone out with since I turned 17, literally none of them have been as nice to me as this one has. I got so emotional, we had to leave because of everyone staring at us. FML
Today, I finally gathered the courage to confess my feelings to my best friend. As I was about to tell him, he interrupted me and said, “Oh hey, by the way, I met a guy and we’re going on our first date tonight.” I awkwardly said, “Congrats,” and then I went home to eat an entire pint of ice cream by myself.

Any boy that understands the importance of replacing ice cream is a keeper. Never let him go.

I find that very sweet,actually. You must have been embarrassed, for sure, but if he really is a "guy who treats you right" I'm sure he understood he touched a nerve with that question. Chin up, OP, maybe you found someone worth the wait!

Maybe today's your lucky day with this guy

I'm thinking this could be the start of a nice relationship. Follow up, OP?

Plot twist: OP's mother paid him to date her.

#50 he'll have to ask for a little extra for having to pay for an extra ice cream

How is this an FML? That guy sounds perfect for you.

Wow, I got moderated for that. I wasn't saying that this doesn't count as an FML. I was saying that what happened surely was only embarassment and that she should be lucky for having him. Can my comment please be restored?

I assumed she meant more pants.
Mauskau 36
Yeah I thought she meant more trousers as well, but icecream might make a bit more sense.

Pretty sure OP meant more ice cream as most people wouldn't say he bought me more pants. It doesn't quite roll off the tongue.

#4 I agree and back you up 110%

LOL #5 you're seeing the world backwards. That's the first time a guy's treated her right, she's not gonna let him go pff xD

You would be surprised, #10. Some women repeatedly ignore the good guys and gravitate to the ones that treat them like shit.

And that's when he fell in love with her.

A girl let me go once after I did everything I could to be a good guy. Not long after, she came back, saying she made a mistake and asking for a second chance. But I had moved on.

#10, I read it as if she felt embarrassed and that she feared that he might not want to go out with her again - hence my comment!

Sometimes our psyche's do weird things. Often times people don't feel they deserved to be treated well. Other times they'll say this can't be all it appears to be. They sabotage themselves. It's sad but I see it in my male and female friends alike, though more often in my female friends. I think it's because people go through so many awful emotionally manipulative relationships, when they meet someone that doesn't treat them like shit, it sets off a red flag that this isn't normal.

You are completely right - that's a huge problem for those who have been mistreated before, especially during childhood. Sadly, if you don't think you're good enough it may happen that you act in a way that leads others to confirm your expectations. That is why finding somebody who treats them right is very important for this type of people, and therapy as well if it comes to that.

He sounds sweet OP, maybe you found a keeper!

I'm sorry if you've been mistreated in the past, but at least this guy was nice.

That's sweet. Though it's always a sweet first date when someone makes you cream your pants.

Your comment cheered me up and made me smile. Thank you ?

Best comment ever.

I'm in a dilemma, since you definitely deserved to be treated right after so long. Now hopefully there will be a second date :)

Awww! That is super sweet. Hopefully he sticks around, sounds like a keeper.
