Today, my flight was delayed 3 hours so I was scrolling through my phone. Minding my own business, I was swiping through tinder and some guy behind me goes, “Ouch; hard no for that one?” And I turn around only to see the man I JUST swiped left on. FML.

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, a guy on Tinder matched with me. I reached for my phone so fast, I slipped and broke my nose against the toilet, then when I tried to use the bowl as support to stand up, my hand slipped and I slammed my broken nose right back onto the toilet. Don’t think Mr Tinder is seeing me tonight. FML
Today, I was swiping on Tinder when the app told me there was one else left to meet. I haven't had any matches. FML
Today, I was at the airport walking around, killing time. There was a man about twenty years older than me who kept on eyeballing me, and it really wasn't flattering. I get on the plane and guess who I get to sit next to. FML
Today, like for the last year, I’ve been on Tinder. I was having a great conversation with a man and we were planning a date for next week when he asked for my number. When I politely responded that I’d rather wait to exchange numbers after meeting in person, he blocked me. FML
Today, I logged onto Tinder to see if I had any messages. I had one: "Get off Tinder." FML
Today, I walked into the bar to meet my Tinder date and sat down next to him at the bar. Without looking up from his phone, his first words to me were, “Piss off fatty, I’m meeting a hot chick tonight.” I guess he didn’t recognise me with my hair done and in a nice dress. FML
Today, while on Grindr, I saw that this guy I'm friends with and have liked for a while now had messaged me. I got all excited, just for it to be a picture of him flipping me off. FML
Today, I was in the airport after saying goodbye to my boyfriend who left for three months. Walking back to my car, I saw a young couple kissing passionately. If that wasn't bad enough, the guy then picked his girlfriend up, spun her round in the air and her foot kicked me square in the jaw. FML
Today, a Tinder guy asked me if I had a full-body picture since I only have headshots. Being ashamed of my body, I told him my rear camera was broken, so only the front-facing camera worked. He asked me if I could see my toes when I looked down. Without thinking, I looked down and said, "No." He unmatched me. FML
Today, I saw the guy I met on Tinder and went out with, only to be told “I’m not ready for a relationship, let’s just be friends” out on a date kissing another girl. I interrupted the date to rip him a new one for lying to me, only to be escorted out by the restaurant manager. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Bad luck OP, but in your defense, he shouldn't be looking over your shoulder. That's just creepy.

It would be more awkward and creepy if OP swept right and the guy said “surprise! I’m right here!”

True, then again, he may just happen see it on her phone while he walked passed her or sitting behind her.

I think you understood wrong, they both were on tinder. She swiped left, and he saw it on his phone and was like "oh hell no", then denied her and that's why it's upsetting. It was a coincidence that the person she was looking at happened to be in the airport too and upsetting that that's what he thinks about her.

left is no. She rejected him. He somehow saw her do it. The fml is that tinder is supposed to be anonymous until you match

@ari330 swiping left means they didn’t like them. If OP swiped left, then she was the one who did the rejecting.

It’s especially creepy since airport seats are either back to back or far enough away that you can’t see exactly what a person is doing on their phone.

So what? You swiped left on someone you didn't like. That guy saw it and seemed to respond in an ironic/non akward way. What's the FML there?

That she swiped no for someone and that someone was right behind her

Trying to make your “lay over” a literal thing?

I hope you tried talking to him in person. That sounds like it could be an adorable how-we-met story.

So what's the problem? You weren't interested anyway.

if he had asked you out in person, you'd still have said no. Not his business what you do on your phone, and nothing to feel bad for. keep doing you, OP

Actually, not necessarily. Women only swipe right on an extremely small percentage of guys profiles. Your odds are significantly better asking someone out directly.

This was literally copied from an article. The real girl this happened to is named Taylor Stag. Anything for attention, I guess.

Maybe not steal tweets and post original stuff.
