Today, I'm so insecure that I was still slightly flattered when the demented old man at the nursing home where I work hit on me, because at least somebody finds me attractive. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, at the Y, someone told me I had a cute ass. I liked that until I realized: a) a woman said it; b) I'm a woman; c) I'm straight; d) it's my first compliment in 2 years even though I'm 25; and e) I'm so in need of positive attention I ran after this woman to ask for a date. Me desperate much? FML
Today, as I was bent over at my waitressing job, an elderly woman walked by and smacked my ass. I looked at her, shocked, and she said, "It was too tempting with you bent over like that, I have a dirty old mind." I didn't know whether to be flattered or horrified. Maybe both. FML
Today, a very attractive man asked me out. I'd have been flattered if I weren't the nurse assigned to his laboring wife. FML
Today, I was cleaning at work when an elderly gentleman walked towards me, paused, and with a wink said, "That's what I like to see: a girl on her knees." This is the same workplace where another old man informed me that my yellow uniform made me look like a "suggestive cheesecake." FML
Today, my boyfriend is so insanely insecure that he actually got jealous when a nearly 80 year-old man told me I had a beautiful smile while grocery shopping. FML
Today, a cute new guy I always run into at work hit on me. Turns out he's only 18. I'm old enough to be his mom. FML
Today, I was at the grocery store when an elderly woman walked up to me and said, "Why can't every guy be as handsome as you?" I would have been flattered by the comment, if I was a guy. FML
Today, at work, a weird old woman came up to me and told me that it's okay: being ugly isn't a choice, it's nothing to be ashamed of, and that it's what inside that counts. She then hugged me and walked away. FML
Today, an elderly gentleman customer decided to tell me that while I'm not attractive at all, he'd still bang me all the same. Then he gave me a pained smile, like he was struggling not to shit himself, and left. I'm starting to hate working retail. FML
Today, at work at a grocery store an old couple came through my checkout lane. As I was putting their bagged groceries in the cart, the old man started feeling me up. FML

I'm sure you're attractive OP. You'll find someone who loves you deeply and won't need to be satisfied with compliments from demented old men. Just be more confident!!

That sucks. If it makes you feel any better I'm insecure too. /:

I think everyone is insecure about SOMETHING about yourself. If you're totally insecurity free when it comes to yourself, I say you're either lying to yourself, or good for you and I'm jealous of you.

It's a nursing place... most of the people there are probably old & married. Why would you want to be found 'attractive' by people there? Unless you're a person close to their age and who's single to mingle.

27- Actually most people in nursing homes are widows/widowers. That's the point though, she's so desperate for someone to find her attractive that she is "slightly flattered" when the old man hits on her.

Did the deleted old man have a mustach?

I love myself, but I'm don't go moaning my own name during sex. (Refer back to a previous FML for clarification)

I ha self esteem issues before too. But I got confident in who I was and learned that the only way to be happy, is to let yourself be happy. It's actually quite simple when you get down to it.

He's not deleted yet just old. He won't be deleted till he's dead...in case you didn't get it.

Someone sounds Forever Alone... Actually two people do.

I always hate it when someone on the Internet makes fun of someone for being "forever alone" when they're the ones criticizing over the Internet, which is grounds for "forever alone
kidwiththeface42 7
Was I criticizing? Technically if I too am forever alone according to your logic, then I'd be sympathizing.
Nick7778 3
Well, I'm guessing you're the or that's forever alone, just sayin.

He's old enough and ill enough to be in a nursing home.. That's too old!

He probably hit on you because you resemble his deceased wife.

Before or after the "deceased" part?

old guys need attention too, they're still like every other male at heart ;)
