Today, my crush came into the gas station I work at and said, "Man, you look hot today!" Flattered, I thanked him. He replied, "No, I mean like hot and sweaty, like you've been working hard." FML

Hey, OP here. This happened a few months ago, but I still remember the embarrassment like it was this morning. I made a joke out of it, we became close, and then his wife and I found out about each other. We became friends, they got divorced, and we all lived happily ever after (except him).

That might be the quickest escalation I've ever heard before

I feel like you are going to be friend zoned so hard.

OP may have lost interest in him after that comment

Yup

I feel like they already were...

How can people think that you deserved it? FYL OP

I'm assuming they think that if she was actually "hot and sweaty" that she deserves to be told that.

Surely the whole point is to end up with a girl who is hot and sweaty.

That's one dumb crush.

Because saying a completely normal thing makes you dumb does it? Just because the OP has a crush on him, doesn't mean the feeling is mutual. It's not like he's got some magic detector that lets him know he's into him does he?
confused_wandere 26
I meant say 'who's into him' not 'he's into him'

What I'm saying is he's dumb for calling her hot because she looked sweaty.

.....well. Typically, if you're hot, you sweat. So does that still make him dumb?

nowadays hot tends to mean good-looking. When was the last time I heard someone calling someone else hot referring to sweat?

"John is hot. He has a fever." "I'm feeling really warm. Are you as hot as me right now?"

Sounds like it's more likely you get employee of the month than the guy

Should have tried saying "I'm hot and sweaty for you baby..". I mean it could go either way though.. :P PS: But seriously, I don't get the whole hype about distant crushes. Go ask that person out, be nice about it.. If it doesn't work out, atleast you can move on..

Somehow I think that would have made things more awkward...

Hahahaha yeah I was just being sarcastic.. :P The "PS" part was the actual comment :D

The "hot" vs. "hot" response... Gets me every time.

Hot and sweaty may not be the best compliment, but at least he could tell the OP is a hard worker...that's still something to be proud of.

Don't feel bad about yourself, it was a mistake of hot or hot. Next time you see your crush say the same thing to them and try to make it an inside joke and become friends. Keep it up and no more just crush
