Today, I finally figured out that when a man says, "Maybe some other time, I'll be busy then" more than once, he really means, "I don't really want to see you again. I didn't think you'd actually USE my number." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, as my lame excuse to not give a guy I met at a club my phone number, I told him I didn't have a cell phone. Guess what I checked when he asked me what time it was a few minutes later. 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
Today, after finally asking my crush for his number, and telling him the reason being he's the only friend whose number I don't have, he laughed, then asked, "Why would I ever be your friend?" FML
Today, a cute guy came up to me and asked for my phone number. I was super excited and began to write it down when he said, "It doesn't have to be your real number, I'm not gonna call anyway." I still gave him my real number. FML
Today, I told one of my classmates for the third time that I'm not into guys and wasn't interested in going on a date with him. He just looked at me blankly and said "So I'll pick you up at 9?" FML
Today, I'm looking for a job, and the employer I spoke to by phone was busy, but before hanging up he said, "We'll call you soon." I still wonder how he plans to do so without even having asked for my number. FML
Today, I finally worked up the courage to ask a cute guy for his number. Once he had given me his, he asked for mine. My initial happiness was deflated when he said, "OK, now I can just block every message from you," and walked away. FML
Today, I was talking to a guy I really liked, hoping that he would ask me out. Eventually he asked for my number. I was so excited that I couldn't remember it. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It took you that long to figure it out? You must be pretty slow...

I agree. He's Just Not That Into You. Good movie. You obviously haven't seen it.

yeah, but girls are just as bad.... or when they give you a real number and you KNOW it's their's, but they just never respond to your text or answer the phone. it's just plain rude!

This isn't an FML. This is a GOOD THING. You'll save yourself a lot of time and drama in the future.

OP, have you always been a slow learner? Rode the short bus as a kid?

I'm sorry it took you real life experience to know that. I thought we just figured that out by watching Disney channel and stuff. Yeah, people don't have courage to say what they mean, so they dance around it, not knowing that they cause a lot more pain in the long run by not being honest and direct.

Well, at least he didn't say you were ugly. If he did, I'd punch his face, if I were you. Because some men can be complete assholes. Of course, I believe you probably are really pretty, it's just that most men only want supermodels... Too picky for their own good.
