Today, I was at a restaurant when I heard a young girl telling her father she didn't think she was pretty. When I got up to leave, I walked past her table and told her she was beautiful. Her dad then punched me in the face. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was eating at a restaurant when a man came up to me and said, "You're pathetic for having lunch with someone that much older than you." My dad immediately got up and punched the man in the face. My fiancé's parents had to walk in the door right as it happened. FML
Today, I went to a restaurant with a girl I really liked. She started crying when an overweight family walked in and loudly sobbed about how the parents were "murdering" their children. This made the father of that family try to fight me. FML
Today, my sister punched me in the face. My dad was actually annoyed with me when I told him. He said I'll never be a "real man" if I can't take a hit from a girl. FML
Today, I got punched in the face by a girl for asking if she was okay after I had seen her crying. FML
Today, my dad stopped me mid-sentence and said he wanted to punch me in the face and set me on fire for using the word "selfie". FML
Today, I went out to eat at a restaurant. When the waitress saw me, she continously told me how beautiful and kind I was. Flattered, I just said thank you. Five minutes later, one of the ugliest girls I've ever seen in my life walked in. The waitress told her the same exact things she told me. FML
Today I gently tried to break the news to my now ex-fiance's daughter that her Daddy and I weren't going to get married after all (he cheated), but that I still loved her with all my heart. She responded by punching me in the face. FML
Today, while I was standing in line at the store, some guy insulted the girl in front of me as he walked past. She turned around and socked me in the face. FML
Today, my father decided to "prepare" me for the real world by telling me that I'm ugly. FML
Today, I was eating at a restaurant in town, when a small boy started looking at me. I simply smiled and went back to eating, only to hear out of the corner of my ear, "Daddy, why does that kid's face look like that"? He said it so loud, the three tables next to us turned and looked. FML

How is it fake? The dad could have thought he was hitting on his daughter. @OP: that was still a very sweet thing to do. :)

How is this 'kind of Pedo'? Do people even know what a goddamn paedophile is these days? There's a large difference between a child molester and a paedophile. Not that either are considered socially acceptable, but still, learn your terminology.

Oh no, poor guy. And just a little by-the-way to all you people who just want to see sexual connotations in EVERYTHING YOU SEEEE did you read that he had sex with her? touched her? interacted with her in any other way than a passing comment out the door? How is a sentence considered enough to accuse someone of child abuse? Word to the wise: Law and Order SVU is not actually real life. Live and learn.

overprotective much? that was a bit over the top on the father's side... probably a reflex action? ..how young was the girl though..he probably thought you were some pedo trying to hit on his little kid.. so i would understand why he would punch you.. still that was mean! hope his punch wasnt that hard. :(

Creepy much? on your part at least. No way could that guy have known you were doing it in response to her earlier comment. Overprotective? on his part maybe a little. Unless you were liike 30 and the girls like 15.

God it's so sad that compliments are taken like this these days. I mean sure, OP could have given some pretext or qualified his statement like "I couldn't help overhearing what you were saying earlier and I just wanted to say that I think you're a beautiful young lady" or something. But really, I think what he did was really sweet and unless he said it in a creepy tone of voice/winked/tried to touch her arm as he said it or something like that, there's nothing wrong with it. And the dad totally overreacted.

People are so high strung these days. That really stinks. I'm sorry your pure intentions led you to a punch in the face.

it's really impossible to be nice to people these days. my dad is an older guy and he loves kids, so one day we were at texas roadhouse and he smiles and waves at this little girl walking by with her dad and the dad gives him this "eat shit and die" look. we were all like wtf!? people suck. sorry dude :(

That was sooo nice! I'm sorry that happened to you. Regardless, you probably made her day. I wish more people were this nice!

That was sweet of you. But you could have said it another way.
