Today, at a bus stop my friend told me that he loved me. I, reacting on impulse, told him how long I've wanted to hear him say that, and kissed him. Then I realised the look on his face. Turns out he'd said 'I need new shoes' not 'I love you.' FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was on the phone with my best guy friend, who I have loved for years. I was talking about school and all of a sudden he said, "I love you." I flipped out saying, "Oh my god, oh my god. I love you too!" He responded with, "What?" He was talking to his mom, who was walking out the door. FML

So if you loved him back how come you didn't say anything in the first place? COME ON MAN UP. It's awkward and embarassing as hell, but it's better than keeping it hidden forever.

Sounds like you were listening to your iPod while he said this. That or you are totally desperate and heard what you wanted to hear.

I looked in the mirror when I said it, if OP is deaf then perhaps she sucks at reading lips. That is the only way I could see this being a mix up. Do you sign OP?

starchild21: there are two different times. one time where he mouths **** you and claims he said vaccum. and as mentioned he mouths I love you and claims he said olive juice.

I kind of believe plexico's example almost as much as this lol. yes it is possible but highly unlikely to mix it up. also at whoever said she may be deaf that is highly unlikely cause she said she realized he said he needed new shoes meaning she probably heard it but didn't comprehend it yet cause she was thinking about how much she loved him. also #68 and #69 made me almost get yelled a for waking my sister up cause I laughed so hard. also please excuse any spelling mistakes as I am still getting used to my new smart phone keyboard I I masw any at all that is cause it is sometimes hard for me to see them all.

The deaf thing was a joke. It was the only way I could figure out this working. And plexico makes me giggle a lot.
