Today, I was at work when a cute guy came up to me and said he liked my shirt. In a desperate attempt to say something back, I said, "Thanks, I like your shoelaces." FML

Your gaze should have been directed about two feet higher

That's actually a funny and cute comment, all in one. If anything, it must have made him smile. :) Don't sweat it, Op. We all have our tongue-tied moments. This one's just yours. ;)

His thigh??

Yea, I'm sure it would be very exciting for him if she said "I like your dick"
BIGBOY4rmAHM 19
20- I think it would be awkward if she said that. How would she know what his dick looks like?

24- I think 20 was going for sarcasm. Damn you Internet sarcasm why must you sound so literal?!

She doesn't have to know, if questioned about it she can say "I like anyone who has a dick"... No? Oh well, who knows? Maybe he has a shoelace fetish and it's all gooooooodd... Tie 'em to the bedpost instead of white silk scarves eh?

What an awesome compliment that I would have popped a boner in front of you.

I think he meant OP should've complimented him on his pants.

Yea... I'm only into a girl if their shoelaces are sexy.

And her tongue was tied with shoelaces, apparently.
Dracoboxer357 36
^ Apparently, Geli. :) I do suspect that shoelaces were the first thing off of the tip of her tongue as, she describes this guy as cute, and seeing how she flusters easy, I picture her being a little bashful and glancing down at his feet a lot. The subconscious part of her brain did the rest. ;) Just my guess.

48- that seems like a very plausible situation.

Then he said want to f**k.
CallMeBloo 31
Yeah, I've said similar things. Thanks for the giggle, and I hope he was nice about it.
SkylarBoston17 8
Did he have cool shoelaces?
justjazzmyn 3

Betz 10
Maybe they were very trippy.
sparkrok 8

A-G-L-E-T don't forget it! We all know she was looking at the aglets, she was baffled by their awesomeness and fuctionality.
toenibbler 14
Velcro all the way
alexup24 13
Were they nice shoelaces?
Nevereverland 8
Why are you always pissed off?
zandalee 20
Because 4 has a face only a mother can love
TheDragonWarrior 5
Well then 4 is in luck. This world is crawling with mothers!!
WaSiSimiLang 8
No, that is his reaction to whatever OP replies with...
alexup24 13
Wrong, I'm too lazy to switch my profile picture.
XcuzimsotiredX 25
yeah he stole them from the president
cactasaurus 7
If he was cute, then you should've said: "Thanks, I like your face."
s15c 9
Cue an even more embarrassing fml.
wickedninja918 1
what would you think if you said some dude had a nice shirt and he said "nice face"
aliciamartinez15 11
Did his shoes even have shoe laces?
alexup24 13
This fml should've ended "which is when I realized he was wearing slip-ons"
igive 29
or those slip on vans
ProhibitionRose 14
Or flip-flops
zandalee 20
Or high heeled pumps
Leslier_fml 4
Lol and they were plain and white right
DKjazz 20
Well, that just makes you quirky, like Summer Glau. Work that angle, OP!
Lennes 12
Hey, laces are important. I appreciate few things more than a compliment on my laces. :)
br0ccoli 15
Lama!!! Is that a lama? I ******* love lamas!!

I'm sorry to dissapoint, but it's an alpaca. They're super soft.
