Today, the three-year-old I was babysitting asked me where my boyfriend was. I told her he was at his house. I'm twenty and single. I lied to a three year old to make myself look less pathetic. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, the 8 year old that I babysit every week told me that it was sad that I didn't have a boyfriend while he has a girlfriend. I got burned by a 3rd grader. FML
Today, I was babysitting a five year-old boy. Somehow the topic of relationships came up, and he asked me if I had a boyfriend. When I told him that I was single, he got all excited and asked if he could be my boyfriend. It would have been cute… except he was the first guy to ever ask me out. I'm 18. FML
Today, while babysitting, the little boy explained to me why I was single, reasons such as 'unattractive' and 'not the girlfriend type'. I cried. FML
Today, I'm 19 years old and, having never been on a date, I agreed to let my friend set me up. He was adorable, young, with blond hair and blue eyes...and 4 years old. My friend tricked me into babysitting. FML
Today, my girlfriend's mother invited me to her 18th birthday. She lied about her age. I have been screwing a minor for 2 years. FML
Today, I was babysitting a three-year-old. She asked me what was wrong with my belly. I had to explain to her that I'm just fat. Twice. FML
Today, I was babysitting a boy who was 11 years old. He told me that he loved me and wanted to be my boyfriend. I told him that I think he is a really great kid but I'm 17 so it would never work out. He said okay. When his parents came home he told them that I hit him and started crying. FML
Today, I went to an elementary school for volunteer work. I was asked to read to a group of kids during one of the classes. Before I started reading, a girl raised her hand and asked me if I had a boyfriend and if I was single. I asked her why and she said "My daddy wanted to know." I'm 16. FML
Today, I had to lie to my boyfriend about having plans on tonight so he'd think I had a life outside of him. All my "friends" are going to a party. I'm not invited. FML
Today, my boyfriend came to visit from another state. My mom didn't want me to go to his hotel, but I did. When she asked about it, I lied to her and said I didn't go. She the showed me a picture of my car outside his hotel. FML

Seriously, why is it that every girl equates their worth to whether or not they have a man (if they are heterosexual). Is validation really that hard to come by these days? Or am I right in assuming that no one even tries anymore? PS you're ******* twenty, get your head out of your ass.

There's nothing wrong with being single; you're only 20. You have the rest of your life to be with somebody. Seriously, boyfriends often only complicate life, anyway. And don't worry about lying to the kid- sometimes you need to make the kid think you're cool so he/she will like you. :)

(I'm #53) To #74, I just got out of a longterm relationship, and a good portion of the latter part of it was long-distance, which means that I didn't have anyone around AND was not getting laid (I don't cheat). I still want to get laid, but does that mean I have to get into another serious, probably shitty relationship in order to do so? You know nothing about me, so don't judge.

And, #74, c) she will never find anybody because she's stuck up and thinks she's hot

Lying isn't a good thing. Honesty is the best policy. Seriously, I clicked You Deserved It for that reason mentioned.

#55, you are SO judgmental, just like the rest of you on here. The last person I slept with was my LONGTERM BOYFRIEND. So me looking for a random hookup after a looong relationship has ended equates to me being promiscuous? Go to hell.

#86, what's wrong with saying you're reasonably attractive? I just wanted to point it out so that people wouldn't be saying "oh, you're not getting any cuz you're UGLY" or "oh, you're not getting any cuz you're FAT." If it's not one, it's always the other, isn't it? Greeeat logic there.

Well, #88, you probably shouldn't say things like that, and then get all upset when people judge you. By saying that you can't find a guy who's interested in random hookups (without offering any explination) you are kind of asking for it....

poopoohead, why would you be offended by a bunch of people who don't know what you look like saying that?
