Today, I went to a coffee shop with my friend. The guy rang her up and said it was only a dollar as he winked at her $10 purchase. Then he rang me up at completely full price. She got his number and I got to be the ugly friend once again. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I saw a cute girl working register at my regular coffee shop and politely asked the her for her number. I was brutally rejected. A few minutes later, a douchebag with a popped collar approached her with a cheesy pickup line and left with not only her number, but a free frappe. FML
Today, I told my friend I would pay him to ask out the ugliest girl he knew. He asked out my girlfriend. FML
Today, my friend said he'd give me 20 bucks if I would ask out the ugliest girl in school. I did it. She rejected me. FML
Today, I'm a barista at Starbucks. When my crush walked in and asked how much his coffee would cost, I said a date. He said he'd rather pay for the coffee. FML
Today, I was out to coffee with an extremely attractive friend. A crazy man came up to the window we were facing. He took one look at her, then turned to me with a big, congratulatory smile, flashing me a thumbs-up. Then he turned to her, frowned disappointedly and gave a thumbs-down. FML
Today, I was getting coffee with my aunt, and she asked me to pay. She then turned to the Barista and said, "He's never had a girlfriend before, and I wanted to show him that they take your money." The Barista laughed so hard she had to excuse herself. FML
Red flag
Today, my friend and I gave our numbers to some guys at a bar. Twenty minutes after we had left, we got a call. We excitedly answered the phone, only to hear the guy ask, "So, are you the fat one or the ugly one?" FML
Smooth
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 took a friend out for what I thought was date. After dinner was over and I paid, she pulled the bill out and wrote her name phone number on it for the waiter. FML
Today, after talking to the man whose car I scratched, we agreed that the damages and cost of repair were so low and instead of me paying I just buy him coffee. When I showed up he saw me, decided I was too ugly to have coffee with, and instead demanded full payment in cash. FML

You don't need a guy who works at a coffee shop anyway. You probably deserve better.

You gotta stop comparing yourself to your friend or you'll never be happy.

Story of my life. Sorry that happened, OP. You can do better.

22- I find that hard to believe, you look pretty attractive to me. And even our age difference aside, don't take my comment the wrong way: I'm married and not hitting on you. Just wanted to say something nice. You're really not ugly, you know. :P
unknown_user5566 27
Draco, I agree with you on this one. 22, confidence can do some amazing things for you. If you have encountered situations like this before, it may simply be because of how you present yourself due to your own perceptions. When I was in 9th grade, I had no self confidence, and as a result received very little attention from guys. In 10th/11th grade I began to realize that I wasn't so bad, and gained confidence. With confidence comes beauty, m'dear.

Maybe she just smiles more and looks happy, whereas you look sultry, snobbish and uninviting?

For the record, if you're using the word "sultry" to describe a girl, it's a good thing.

Maybe they meant sulky?
fmessiah 19
Na, I meant sultry in that I prefer the beautiful girl next door look compared to the sultry 'model' look. Just because one guy liked her doesn't mean every guy prefers her to you.

Who explains themselves on a new comment on this site because they were misunderstood? Got a few dislikes on this one.. let me get another one started...

Everyone's a loser. Alright? Happy ending.

Lol this comment was a reply to someone else's...

Aw you're not the ugly friend OP. Every guy has a different taste in women. Though that was kinda douche-y of him to do, especially at work. I hope he got in trouble for that.

you dont even have a pic...so just shut up...drama bullshitters like you that ruin society and apps

#53 - Judging by the number of comments you've made, you're fairly new. How about you sit back, and just shut up. Btw, like you said before, this is FML not a dating site. So take off your photo that looks like it came from a **** site because no one here is going to care how disgustingly ripped you are. You're more of a douche than the barista in the FML. #56 - Chill. Obviously #49 lacks self-confidence, so they decided to bash on your pic. You're actually really pretty.

#64 - You're welcome(: LOL, I totally agree. Next thing you know, over half the comments will be modded and gone!
dlcj22 11
so your over here bashing on other people to make yourself feel better your sad and pathetic. Have you looked at yourself lately. Your horribly ugly i mean im just saying. Your just mad cause you cant even get a decent looking man if you tried wear a little less eye liner maybe people would think your normal

The friend would probably get upset and think OP was making a big deal out of an essentially trivial event if she had done that. However, if Mr. Hotshot there pulls this kind of move a lot, that is grounds enough for him to get canned.

Aww, don't be upset about something like this! Just think of it this way - you're missing out on the opportunity to shag a shallow, probably douchy guy, who will likely always work menial jobs like serving coffee to others. Damn, what a bummer :P
