Today, I ran into a guy that I had gone on a few dates with 3 months ago and slept with him a few times, but then never heard from him again. When he looked at me, I went over and gave him a hug and said "Hey, how are you, Chris?". He hugged me back and said "Hey there cutie, what's your name?". FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend at a grocery store. We haven't seen each other since we broke up a few months ago, and when he introduced me, he called me by the wrong name. We dated for three years. FML
Today, I ran into an old friend from college on the bus to work. Having not seen each other in over 10 years, we spent a good 15 minutes talking about our lives after college. At the end, he asked me what my name was. FML
Today, I ran into my crush of three years ago. We used to always walk our dogs together. He still remembered my dog's name. He didn't remember mine. FML
Today, after many weeks of talking to this guy over the phone for hours on end and establishing that we both had feelings for the other, we met in person. He saw me, got an "emergency text," and hasn't talked to me since. FML
Missed opportunities, mixed signals
Today, it's been 5 good months since I reconnected with a guy I've known since elementary. I have him on every social, he called me pretty, etc. We weren't ever together but he acted like my boyfriend. He stopped talking for a month, with messages every now and then, and now he has a girlfriend and doesn't talk to me. FML
Exclusivity
Today, I ran into the guy I’ve been seeing. He was holding hands with another girl. FML
Today, I've been seeing this girl for three months. After asking her if she'd like to go out to eat with me, I realized that she never called me by my name, just "hey you". While we were out, I wondered what she had me saved as, so I texted her when she got up to use the restroom. It was "free food". FML
Bad date
Today, I went on a lunch date with a guy I used to work with. When the conversation got dry, I asked him if he went by “Chris” or “Christopher” these days. His name is Daniel. My brain knew my mistake as I said it. Just when I thought the silence couldn’t get more awkward. FML
Today, a guy who I've been on five dates with called me for the first time in 2 weeks. The first thing I said was, "Don't expect me to go out with you again after going AWOL on me." Then he told me his mom died. FML
Chance encounter
Today, I ran into a guy I knew from 3 years ago. He just moved here from out of state and is planning to stay forever. This is the same guy who dated me long distance and dumped me after a while because he “couldn’t handle long distance.” He just got engaged to a girl who lives here. FML

Gah, you are awkward! He obviously doesn't want to hear from you again. Why are you initiating hugs?

If it were reversed, I would say the same thing. People - men and women - who sleep around don't have respect for their body. It's not empowering, it's degrading. As for "getting laid," I do - by my BOYFRIEND, not some random guy I've only gone on a few dates with.

Okay, here's the thing. People who say "you all need to go out and get laid" are idiots. You say that because you can't come up with a real argument. Almost anyone can get laid. The question is, do you have standards? Does the other person earn your respect and you theirs before you get down and dirty? If not, cool for you. But don't get your panties in a bunch when the other person doesn't give a shit about you later on. Don't expect respect from someone you didn't take the time to get to know, in order for that mutual exchange of respect to even occur in the first place. If you want to sleep around, that's alright. Not my thing, but live and let live. Just don't be stupid and think later on that you're going to be treated like a princess. You're not. If you act easy, you're going to be treated like someone who is easy.

**** shaming = monumental fail. As long as they're protected, if someone wants to **** all day long, let them. Live and let live.

im a girl and i totally agree with you. Your comment was so good until you said they are all repressed homosexuals who need intensive therapy. Just cause they believe in waiting until marrige doesnt make them repressed, gay, or therapudic. Sorry. Just thought id let you know how awesomelly correct this comment was even if a little deragatory.
