Today, I was at the mall and I noticed this guy staring at me from across the food court. He smiled and waved at me so I walked over there and tried to talk to him. He was looking at his girlfriend the whole time. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was with a friend at the mall and I made eye contact and smiled at the worker at a smoothie stand that I went on a date with last year. He saw me, and then ducked down behind the register, where he remained while his coworker awkwardly leaned over him to take my order and money. FML
Today I was walking around the mall and I saw my crush from high school. He came up to me and, instead of talking to him, I burped, and he just walked away. FML
Today, I went to the grocery store. I saw a very cute guy in the aisle and smiled. He smiled back and blushed a little. He walked over and I flirted with him. He said, "I thought you should know the zipper on your jeans is down" and walked away. It was. FML
Today, I was walking around Walmart when this cute guy walked by me and winked. I thought he wanted to talk, so I followed him around the store, trying to catch up. Turns out it wasn't a wink, he had something in his eye. He told the security person that a weird girl was stalking him. FML
Today, I went to the movies. A really cute girl sat beside me. I tried to strike up a conversation with her until she turned to look at me and I realized he was a guy. I couldn't even finish the movie because I felt his judging eyes burn holes into me the entire time. FML
Today, I walked past a group of men at the mall and one of them mooed at me. FML
Today, I was shopping in the mall. A cute store worker kept checking me out, so after I picked a few things I went up to her and started flirting. After a few seconds, she cut me off and said, "Actually I was watching you because you look like someone who would shoplift." FML
Today, I was working at the mall as the girl that stands around giving out samples of the foods. This guy came up to me and we were flirting for at least 30 minutes. With the tray in one hand, I gave him my cell to put his number in it. He ran away with my phone. FML
Today, I was eating in the food court at the mall by myself but then a cute guy from my school offers to sit by me, I say yes of course, he then asks me for a french fry. Later on I realize he has eaten half my meal. He only wanted to sit by me for my food. FML
Today, I was having lunch at a cafe. There was an attractive guy looking at me from another table. I smiled back and gave a little wink. A minute later he approached me. I introduced myself and asked if he wanted my number. He said, "Um, no but what are you eating? It looks really good" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That happened to me once. Except it was at the zoo. And it was a gorilla that waved at me. He was not as friendly up close.

I don't know if it happens to all of us. But I would assume its awkward and very embarrassing.

That sucks. Hopefully he was nice enough to see it was just an honest mistake and laugh it off. Props for having the confidence to approach him.

That's a shame, the food court would've been such a romantic place for you two to hit it off.

"You like pizza?! OMG me too!!!1!!1!" Yep, plenty of soulmates in the food court.
Duladian 19
Soul food. Soul mates. Hey it could work!

Axipiter 24
Haha! Especially after the "Who the hell was that!?" conversation that most likely ensued!
Vball6 19
Yeah, just walk up to a random guy who was calling his girlfriend and hand him your number, sounds smart. How can you be so sure they'll break up anyway? Omg.
ambear26 14
You don't even know them..... How do you know they will break up?

Just go ahead and pretend you were going to say hi to your boyfriend. " Oh, you were saying hi to your girlfriend? Sorry, I was waving hi to my boyfriend... Who's waaaayyyy over there."

Let me guess no love life i bet you wanna be kristin stewart right now
AH1Zviper 15
Who in their right mind would want to be kristen stewart? She's the justin bieber of movies. That and the sparkly fairy.

That's why you never walk up to a random person who you suspect is staring at you. In my experience, the person who I thought was looking at me usually never was.

Then you need a prettier face... I get stared at more than enough...
unknown_user5566 27
I'm sure you do.

Let me introduce you to my friend, Whom. He's nice and sweet but yet, he's always neglected by many.
