Today, trying to be smooth, I slipped the girl I like a piece of paper with my phone number written on it. A while later, she slipped it back to me and left the room. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Jot that down
Today, I wrote my phone number on a Post-it note and gave it to a cute girl at work. She immediately threw it away. In front of me. FML
Hitting it off
Today, my friend and I went to a bar for drinks. I noticed this cute girl and went over to say "Hi." I had a great conversation with her and I asked for her number before she left. She passed it to me on a piece of paper with instructions specifying for my friend to call her and not me. FML
Today, I looked in my pocket for the phone number of a girl I met last night at a party. I remembered us talking and exchanging phone numbers. When I found the piece of paper, I discovered that instead of writing her number down, I had drunkenly written down my own. FML
Denied
Today, I asked a girl for her number and I wrote it down when she gave it to me. When I called her, it wasn't her. She'd given me a restaurant's phone number. FML
Today, I got talking to a pretty girl on the subway. Just as she was about to get off, I handed her my phone so that she could give me her number. She ran out with it. FML
Today, I worked up the courage to give a guy my number. I wrote it down on a piece of paper, tore it in half and gave it to him. Later, I noticed I'd given him the wrong, blank half. FML
Today, a girl I've been crushing on for over a year finally gave me her number. I lost the note at home, but found it a few hours later. I excitedly called, only to find she'd written down the number for the local Pizza Hut. FML
Hard pass
Today, I finally worked up the courage to write a girl a note, with my number on it, and the words: "You're stunning. Get in touch sometime." Heart pounding, I saw her, got up, and passed her the note. Then I passed out at her feet. FML
Today, I went to a rock concert and met this amazing girl. We started talking and then swapped cell numbers. Five minutes later, she asks to see my cellphone, so I gave it to her. Once I got home I went to text her and saw that she deleted her number. FML
Fat chance
Today, I left my number on my receipt for a cute waitress. As I was leaving the bar, she came running out and called me over. I obviously got excited. Turns out I'd forgotten to sign my slip. FML

Perhaps she typed it into her phone before leaving, thereby giving you a chance for a real connection. Or not...

It's not smooth when you give a girl some scrap of paper. Go talk to her and show her some of your better qualities; you might find that she'll be a bit more responsive.

Did it also say "Do you like me?" and have boxes for her to check yes or no? Grow a pair and talk to her like a grown up next time.

I'm guessing that he's a nice as well as shy guy. And has learned like most nice guys, asking a girl out can end with a crewel response.

That's a cop out. You should have went over to her like a real "man", and asked her for her number. I would have done the same thing.

Don't feel bad. I once wrote a Guy a handwritten letter explaining that I would like to take him out and to get to know him better. I included my number and put it in a sealed envelope. It took 3 weeks to hand deliver it to him. I never got a call. At least you got your rejection right away.

Have you not read Docbastard's guide to FML? One of its tenets essentially alludes to the fact that if you start an FML with the phrase "trying to be smooth", you are a douchebag of epic proportions.

You, OP, are most definately not a pimpdaddy.

Guys from this century use Bump. Paper is so 1900's. On the plus side, she could have played you for a few free meals and movies before she let you know that she's not interested in you. Spend the money you saved on a nice hooker.

Your username does not fit you. You failed at making a pass at someone you like.
