Today, I was chatting with the girl of my dreams, a real heart-to-heart. Everything was going great, and I asked her if she'd like to get coffee together sometime. She immediately backed away and excused herself, mumbling something about not dating left-handed people. Huh? FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I asked a girl that I've been talking to for a couple of weeks out, but immediately got rejected because I'm left handed. I guess I'll leave that part out next time. FML
Today, I went on a coffee date with a new girl. It was over less than a minute in, when I ordered a black coffee. She lectured me about how I "obviously" have a "seriously fragile ego." I just like black coffee. FML
Today, I went out to dinner with the girl of my dreams. Wanting to get to know her, I asked her what she’s looking for in a relationship. She scoffed and said how relationships are for the weak and that it’s better to not catch feelings to avoid being hurt. I guess I don’t have a chance. FML
Today, I went on a coffee date with the man I've been in love with for a while. Before I knew what was going on, he'd started chatting up a pretty girl sitting nearby. I had to drink my coffee alone while he got her number. FML
Today, I finally worked up the courage to ask out the girl I like. After nervously fumbling through my words, I asked, "Want to grab a cup of water sometime?" She looked at me confused, then asked if I meant coffee. FML
Today, I was going on a blind date with a girl. She walked up to the table, said "Nah, no thanks" and left. FML
Today, I finally got the courage to talk to this coworker I like and ask her out for a coffee next door. She was dismissive, cold and rude, and filed a complaint with HR. FML
Today, during my first date with a girl I've liked for awhile, she tells me about some minor disabilities she was born with. Wanting to be honest with her too, I tell her I'm slightly autistic. Her response was, "I'm sorry this isn't going to work. I can't date a retard." I had to eat alone after that. FML
Today, I sent a text message to this girl I've been flirting with for a while now saying "How about coffee?". To which she answered "Great idea, I'll go and make myself one right now". FML
Today, the girl of my dreams, the one person I've met in my life that I could see myself spending the rest of it with, told me she loves me. She then specifically added "...but not in that way, so we could never be together." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

How could you be so inconsiderate OP? It was entirely obvious that you two were never meant to be because of your dominant left hand. Geez some people....

As a woman who has had some really scary experience with men in public, in broad daylight, I can tell you that this had nothing to do with you being left handed. I am mostly sure that she was married or had a boyfriend. In my experience, when a man asks me out, saying I am married is the most dangerous reply. Men with anger problems go absolutely insane with rage. I know that doesn't make any sense to any normal person, but for some reason it is the case.

thats not right. you should have just left her alone.

Some Christians, I think it was specifically Catholics although I'm not sure, used to think that people being left handed was a sign of the devil so they would try and force their children to be right handed. So perhaps she was raised in an environment which taught her to believe such things.

Maybe she was religious? I think that used to be a thing in Christianity where you had to be right handed... I could be wrong though.

Left handed people, on average live 8-10 years less than right handed people. Maybe she was just planning for her future.
