Today, I went to dinner with an amazing guy. At the end he said he had to go to the washroom. 15 min later he was still MIA, so I figured he'd ditched me with the bill. I paid and left. 10 min later he texted me, asking where I was. Turns out he hadn't ditched me. He was having "stomach issues." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went on a first date with the guy I really like. During our dinner, he said he needed to go to the bathroom. You guessed it: he didn't come back. FML
Today, I went on a date with a guy. I lost interest in him quick, so I excused myself to go to the bathroom, hoping to make a run for the hills. As soon as I reached the front door, our server yells out, "I hope you’re not thinking about dining and dashing!" FML
Today, I treated my boyfriend to an expensive dinner using the last of my paycheck. I had to excuse myself to the bathroom a few minutes in. I came back to find my plate empty. His excuse was, "I didn't want the food to get cold." FML
Today, I went on a date at a restaurant with a guy. When he promised I wouldn't have to pay the bill, I didn't think he meant we'd be dining and dashing. FML
Today, my friend took me and a bunch of other guys out to a nice dinner. This was his way to say thank you for helping him move to a new apartment. He got the cheque, excused himself to go to the restroom and never came back to pay. FML
Today, I went on a date with a guy who seemed to be quite the gentleman. I was proven wrong when he told me to "shut it" during dinner, stiffed me on the bill, and then left me at the restaurant so he could get his own taxi home. FML
Today, I went on a date. After we finished our meal, I had to use the bathroom really bad. When I said so, my date totally lost it and accused me of planning on climbing out a window and ditching her. "Fuck that and fuck you!" she said, then stormed out, leaving me with the bill. FML
Today, I was on a date with a guy I've been crushing on. In the middle of the dinner, he said he had to go get something from his car. When I asked what it was, he smiled and said it was a surprise. I waited for my surprise for half an hour. Then I decided to pay the bill and go home and cry. FML
Today, I went to a restaurant with my boyfriend. After dessert, he went to the bathroom so I quickly called the waiter over and paid the bill, thinking it was a nice gesture. When he returned, he broke up with me for "emasculating" him. FML
Today, while at a restaurant, my date shat himself. He spent the entire meal pretending nothing had happened. FML

Perhaps you should have atleast tried calling or texting him before you left?

That could have resulted in an awkward conversation.

Maybe OP will have "relationship issues" now.. Well it's just a little misunderstanding things go on :)

"hey are you actually taking a shit or ditching me?" I have a feeling that regardless of an answer, it would be a very awkward moment.

54 - A text saying "You ok?" would also work. Ironically I had the exact same text sent to me today in a similar situation - except the restaurant only had one bathroom and I was stuck waiting for 10 mins on a woman with 3 small children. Luckily I didn't have "stomach issues" like OP's date and my friend had sense enough to text me rather than assume I left. Poor guy :( But hey if it works out between OP and the guy this would be a great story to tell! Or of course he could be a con artist who dined and ditched...

Damn. That's quite unfortunate. Is it sad that the only reason I know what MIA stands for is because I'm addicted to league of legends? I think it is.

70- yes, yes it is. Try pick up a book or learn about the world around you sometime, since the school system is failing clearly.

I have straight A's in college, have a great job and am not addicted but play the game..plus I do read about 10 new books a year. And I know what MIA means..be nice. Stop assuming, it can get you into trouble. :)
humorizer 14
Only 10 books a year? There's some 52 weeks in a year... reading 30 books a year would be just mediocre imho. It only takes about a day or two to read a regular novel; three days to read an exceptionally long one.
eggmarie 25
I read ten new books a month, in between college courses and working. But I play League of Legends.

So, 92, don't label someone as stupid and lazy just because they play video games
A7X_LoVeee 10
Wow, both of you missed the point. Good job.
LegraMR 1
120, and 125, you both missed the point. It wasn't that he plays the video game that made 92 assume he really needs to pick up a book. It was that a video game is the only reason he knows what a fairly common acronym means. He said himself that he thinks its sad.

I read 730 lengthy novels a year, in addition to working three jobs, going to school full time, raising two kids, playing league of legends, and consuming incredible amounts of weed and alcohol. Not to mention banging at least three new hoes each week. The rest of you need to stop being such lazy douchebags.

First to be second?

You're an idiot.

First of all don't be a shit head and post a worthless comment like that. Second, no you aren't.
AussieChild 22
Where did the original comment that said "first" go...??
xXxIracebethxXx 14
Can't wait to see what the mods do with this one... ;)

Maybe you should get some prescription glasses with those impending negative votes ;)
xXxIracebethxXx 14
Now all our comments are irrelevant 'cause he changed his comment. **** you for saying "first" in the first place.

AussieChild is clearly some sort of masochist who craves punishment via trying to get all the thumbs-down he can possibly get
AussieChild 22
She. And I when wrote those, it was in response to a comment which was quickly deleted.
fuzz97 23
Oh ok. Fair enough.

Ahhh damn :/ I don't know what I would have done during that situation but assume the worst too.

Well.. He can't be too mad. He got a free meal.

But then again, he threw it right back up. Oh well, easy come easy go.

And this will make for a funny date story if the relationship works.

Damn it said "first" when I made that comment!
Michael_92 20
Ha the app is working now. Just fyi to everyone, someone said "first" and they were actually second. That is what my reply was to.

I agree if I was stuck in the bathroom I don't think I'd want to admit it... Me and my husband always leave the bathroom door open... If it's ever closed we know something serious is going down and I still get embarrassed after 7 years... So for that to happen to a possible first date is totally mortifying!
Meettitan 14
Pain =/= thumbs down. Sadly, I think he's just a really bad troll. DON'T FEED THE TROLLS!

wait...you always leave the door open? thats honestly creepy...and disgusting...

Being stood up as having a sore stomache? Oh yea nbd

No harm done. Just walk back and explain the misunderstanding if he's such an "amazing guy" then he'd understand :)

First comment!!

Aw poor guy. Stomach issues, and he got ditched. I hope you went back there to explain what happened OP.

Give him the benefit of the doubt next time. :) Hope everything works out!
