Today, someone walking my way started waving. I waved back until I realized he wasn't looking at me. To make things worse, while walking past he said, "Get a fucking friend." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was walking down the street when I saw someone I thought I knew. I waved enthusiastically and shouted, "Hey!" The person stared blankly at me, so I quickly turned it into a wave at someone else behind them. There was no one behind them. I was just waving and yelling into the void like an idiot. FML
Today, I was at a supermarket when I saw a guy waving enthusiastically at me. I waved back, smiling like an idiot. He kept waving, so I waved harder, even giving him the ole finger guns. Then his actual friend walked up behind me, and I realized he wasn’t waving at me at all. The cashier witnessed everything and whispered, “Yikes.” FML
Today, I waved at someone across the street because I was absolutely certain they were my friend. They waved back, so I walked over. We stood there awkwardly for about ten seconds before I realized I had never seen this person in my life. Apparently they had waved at the person standing behind me. FML
Today, I waved at my crush, but he waved at someone behind me. FML
Today, I was walking around with a friend, who I assumed was beside me, but it turned out she'd left my side minutes ago and hadn’t heard my rambling that some random person had. FML
Today, I was walking to the shops when I saw my friend about 10 metres in front of me, waiting at the traffic lights, by herself. Jokingly, I shouted out "Who's that really ugly person waiting at the lights?" The girl turned around. It wasn't my friend. FML
Today, I was walking down the street and while stopped at a light, this old man waved at me. Thinking nothing of it, I walked through a parking lot to get to where I was going, where he not only followed me, but mistook me for a prostitute. It was 5pm. FML
Today, after a boozy lunch, I drunkenly waved at what I thought was my reflection in a shop window. The person inside waved back. I laughed and kept walking. Ten minutes later, I realized I'd spent the entire interaction waving at someone standing in a café. FML
Today, someone whistled, so I turned around. The guy behind me then said, "Did you seriously think that it was meant for you?" FML
Today, I was walking home when I made eye contact with some guy, just being friendly. He then started rapping at me while pointing at his dick. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

One time, my friend pants'd who he thought was another friend, and almost got knocked out. Be glad it wasn't you!

My favourite FML of all time was where two girls saw each other in a parking lot, ran to each other and hugged, only to realize as they pulled away that neither of them knew each other. They both thought the other person was a long lost friend. Too funny! And the way it was worded was hilarious! One of the only fml's where I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes. The image of it was hilarious!

I've gotten into the wrong car before. The driver started driving off until we both realized what had happened. Scary and embarrassing! Lol.

#50, the same thing happened to me when I was in 1st grade. I was being picked up from school when I got into a car that resembled my mom's and buckled my seatbelt without looking up. When the car started moving I looked to my left and saw an old man that did NOT resemble my mom.

Or. "I wasn't looking at your arrogant ass" then precede to walk past him.

#20 that would make matters worse. Who would she then walk to? Her invisible friend? Lol

So you're saying that OP cannot amount to having any friends? Wouldn't matter if it's s friend or another random student. It'll get the point across and make him feel stupid.

No, he's saying what OP will do when the walk past the rude dude, will she just walk to the nearest stranger and say "Hey, bud!" or disappear?

Well, he didn't have to be a cockwad about it. He could've just said "Not you", and be on his merry way.
