Today, I was sitting in the restaurant waiting for my blind date to come. I had sat for an hour until I finally got fed up and went to leave when at the same time the guy at the table next to me stood up to leave too. I noticed he had been sitting alone. Turns out he was my date. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went on a blind date that my friend set up at a coffee shop. I arrived early, feeling nervous but excited. As I sat waiting, I noticed a person waving at me from across the room. I smiled and waved back, only to realize that they were actually waving at someone behind me. My date never showed up. FML
Today, I went on a blind date, meeting up in a park. I got there first and sat down to wait for him. After a while, a guy sat down next to me. I wasn't sure if it was him, so I texted him, asking if he'd arrived. His response was, "I'm already here, sat to the left of the old woman dressed like a gypsy." FML
Today, I went on a blind date. Not only I had already been on a date with the guy before, we'd also had both forgotten about it until halfway through the dinner. FML
Today, I went on a blind date. My date spent the whole time at the restaurant on his phone and didn't even try to show interest. Thankfully I'll never have to deal with this individual ever again. FML
Today, the guy I'm dating came into the same restaurant where I was eating. He was with a girl. He sat at the table next to mine and didn't even bother to say, "Hi." I guess I'm single again. FML
Today, I went on a blind date that my best friend had set up for me. When I arrived, I introduced myself and we sat at the table. After we ordered our food, he asked the waiter for some crayons and a kid's menu, and colored for the half hour before our food came. He didn't talk to me at all. FML
Today, I went on a blind date at a local restaurant. When my date walked in, she took one look at me, said "Nope", and walked out. FML
Today, I went on a blind date and mistook someone else at the restaurant for my date. We had a great conversation… until the real blind date arrived. The look on both their faces was priceless. FML
Today, I went on a blind date. As soon as my date saw me walking towards him, he checked his watch and said, "Oops, wrong place." Then walked right past me. FML
Today, I went on a blind date. When I arrived, the guy looked nothing like his profile picture. We started chatting, and things were going fine until he asked, “So, what do you think about my date?” I replied, “Uh, I think it’s going well!” He responded, “I was talking about the waitress. I’m married.” FML

So... did you guys get dinner or no?

Well at least you both have patience. Hopefully you realized this immediately and went to talk to him, and be able to laugh this off later on, if you guys are compatible.

That's so shallow

I'm pretty sure she's not in the restaurant waiting on your advice on what to do, #1

If everyone followed your advice you'd probably have a lot of people run from you.

that's a disgrace to what glenn guagmire would say.

Agreed, and they'd also have a really good 'how we met' story to tell people

What part of blind date did you not understand?
framaram 9
well it never said if she wore glasses or not?! obviously..
Sevarog 13
Dude... Blind date means they have never seen eachother before, so there was no way they could have recognized eachother.

#8 whoa...you're trolling right?
framaram 9
#17 lol the name of the date is a bit confusing to me.. but still.

I think it's retarded
RichardPencil 32
How did neither of you notice the other for a full hour? Did you meet on Plenty Of Autistic Fish.com?
kristinjeaneen 21
A) that's offensive to the autistic community. B) you're the dumbass who can't read. The FML clearly states it was a BLIND date.
framaram 9
I'm sure he didn't mean to offend you or your community. An attempted joke I suppose.
silvermoon5033 26
That isn't a joke.
Sevarog 13
PlentyOfAutisticFish.com... It's clearly meant to be a joke, but it's retarded, since it was a blind date.
framaram 9
#16 are you against autistic people finding love?! heartless.
RichardPencil 32
Sorry. I was just pointing out how two people couldn't look around and recognize the other's situation. Seems like someone who is trapped in their own world. Didn't mean to offend.
RichardPencil 32
#23, not what I suggested. Don't need your fake outrage.

How about using your mobile phone and letting your date know you're at the spot? This is a YDI for both of you.
Catdragon 40
Not everyone has mobile phones. I have a home phone and a computer.
Moerighan 23
Did you not have your phones and ask where each other was? That is a thing nowadays.
False_Stupidity 42
I've never done a blind date but I'd presume that there would be some pre arranged signal or cue so that you can find each other. YDI if this was not arranged before hand
dragonborngirlll 5
It was a blind date. op didn't arrange anything obviously
neuronerd 29
Well, if you end up liking each other and it worked out after you realized you were each other's dates, you have one of those adorably humorous "how we met" stories.
