Today, the guy I've been madly in love with for ages finally asked me out. I excitedly said yes. I waited a half an hour for him to show up, with another girl and say, "Where's your date?" I was asked to go on a double date, but apparently he forgot to tell me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Consolation Prize
Today, a guy who I was low-key crushing on asked me out. I excitedly told my best friend, as I do when I have big news. She informed me that the same guy asked her out 15 minutes ago. He'd originally been into her and only came to me because she rejected him. FML
Mixed signals
Today, I worked up the courage to ask someone out after months of debating it. She smiled, said yes, and asked what time. I got so nervous that I gave her the time I start work instead of our reservation. We both showed up to completely different places and spent twenty minutes wondering why the other had ghosted us. FML
Running late
Today, I woke up very excited because I was going on my first date with this guy I really liked. I dressed very nicely and went to where we were supposed to meet. I waited for about 2 hours. I called him to ask him where he was. He got angry because he was still sleeping and I woke him up. FML
Still alive?
Today, after finally having the guts to confess to a guy I have liked for a year now and him saying he also likes me and then asking me out, I went out of my way and traveled 4 hours to meet him. He didn't show up and never apologized. I never heard anything from him. FML
Today, I finally got the courage to ask out the guy I've liked for a long time. He's a cashier at a grocery store. It was about 1am and I was his last customer, everything seemed just right. Just when I was about to ask him to the movies, a drunk girl stumbles in and asks him out. He said yes. FML
Smooth Operator
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, a guy I've liked for a while asked if he could talk to me during break. He'd never done that before, so I was excited and said yes. As soon as we both sat down, he asked if I'd help him get a date with my best friend. FML
Today, I was finally asked out on a date after a year of being single. Turns out he got the wrong number. FML
Today, after what I thought was several weeks of flirting with a coworker, I asked her out on a date. She asked if it could be a double date, and I said yes. I brought a friend, she brought her husband. FML
Alexa, play "Let Down" by Radiohead
Today, the guy I've been crushing on at work finally asked me out to lunch. I was nervous we wouldn't have anything to talk about. He spent the entire hour talking about how amazing his new girlfriend is. FML

I'm willing to bet he told you it was a double date, but in your excitement, you decided to have selective hearing.

Those never work out well.

More like third wheel, or walk of shame.

Yes, 1, that would work out AMAZINGLY...
beccaishereyay 11
Everyone's discouraging it but I'm betting OPs crush would be down...
DA14573 6
That was just the first thing that came to mind. No way to say if that was his intention or not, seeing as how he "forgot" to mention the double date part... And first comment that is buried is apparently a good strategy to counter thread(or "comment") jacking

Who can honestly think completely straight when trying to talk to a person they like? (wives and girlfriends/husbands and boyfriends excluded.)

Or perhaps the fact that she was acting like a puppy on speed scared him into pretending that he'd asked her to double-date!

Either that or he was just being a dick and wanted to watch her squirm. OP, if I were you id watch the other girl. If she knows you like him and screwed up, she's going to try everything to make you look horrible to take out her competition.

That's still shitty though. Plus, unless the two of you are good friends, it's weird for him to be asking you to go on a double date with him..

Maybe I'm just old fashioned, but is anyone else wondering how you can be madly in love with someone you've never been on a date with?

He's a jerk I can't believe there's guys out there like that
CrewBoy 10
Why? Because he made a mistake?

26, either way you really can't blame the guy and call him an Ass.

He wants to ride the tricycle with them ;)

Hope you didn't go. Sucks to be a third wheel.

She DID go. She was the first one there. It was at the meeting place on the date that she found out it was a double date.

Who talks on the phone anymore? I rarely talk on the phone now. It's usually best to text those kinds of things. :)

Srsly Doc. Talking on phones is like, SO 30 secs ago. Y not just tip lik dis? Then u can say stuff lik lolz and roflcopter.
redmane 21
Some people don't have a phone plan with text messaging, don't like to text, have gone over their text limit, don't have a cell phone or, you know, like to talk on the phone. You can't speak for everyone.

Me think, talk like this, save more time.

As long as no one say YOL...... Nvm.

I find it hard to believe that you can know so little about someone you're 'madly in love with'. I hope you were able to come up with a good excuse!

Exactly what I was thinking
flockz 20
this is why i only date my right hand. the sex is amazing.
yankfan89 27
You should try mixing up with left hand. It might feel like a whole new experience or it might feel like you are cheating on your right hand.
Posthuman 26
It's like letting a clumsy stranger do it for you ;)
KiddNYC1O 22
I dumped my right hand a long time ago. My left hand sexes me better.
Posthuman 26
I prefer a 3 way with both my hands ;o
flockz 20
then switch it up with your feet, it's alot looser then hands, but i just imagine i'm boning the neighborhood *****.
sharksfan48 13
Well I have to go with Jill, since she is always there for me when I need it most.
astralvagan 20
Maybe you should clarified? Either way, he will probably try for a threesome....

I'm going to assume he isn't a really close friend since you didn't know he was already with someone. Which brings up the question why? Why does he want to go on a double date with you?
