Today, I was texting a girl I like, explaining how she looks like an attractive celebrity. She responded with a picture of a very unattractive lady and asked if she looked like that. I told her if she had been caught in a burning building, then yes, that would look like her. It was of her mom. FML

Hey guys. First off, I am very happy to have had this published, but I would like to clarify some things and clear the misunderstandings! My friends mom is not actually a burn victim, she just wasn't attractive at all and didn't resemble her daughter either. We had been texting previously, and she was sending me pictures of celebrities and asking if she looked like that. She then sent that picture of her mom, who was honestly very unattractive. I thought I was being clever with the whole "caught in a burning building" joke, but it was just the wrong time to use it. Believe me when I say I have nothing against burn victims, as that's seriously a weird thing to hate on. After I found out I apologized and she accepted, so everything is fine now! Thanks for taking the time to read this, I just wanted you guys to not think I'm some weird shallow guy who hates burn victims and is only after girls for their looks.

A) I can't believe you just called burn victims ugly. Go screw yourself! B) On the other hand, she shouldn't have asked you to compare her to her mom like that, but she should've said that that was her mom in the first place. You mainly deserve it for the burn victim comment. My mom's friend's 16 year old is a victim, and she looks plenty similar to how she looked beforehand.

Mom or not, that's not a good thing to say either way

Did you comment that her mother wasn't attractive or have many people say she looks like her mother? This needs a follow up there are a few things missing for information

Now re reading this I realized I misread part of it

The fact that you said that shows you probably saw no similarities between the girl and her mother, so if you did'nt think they looked alike you weren't insulting the girl so much. Still insulting the mother though.. Be a bit more careful next time OP!

Well, I think you pretty much screwed the pooch on that one. Did she stop talking to you after that?

Hopefully she laughs it off and says nothing to the mom.

And that's why you shouldn't be a dick about other people's appearances.
