Classic excuse

By bfall74 - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - Canada

Today, I was stood up by a blind date. After calling and texting her about being a horrible person, she called me from the hospital. She was in a car accident. FML

It could have been worse. She could actually have just stood you up.

"Hi, this is bfall74, just checking to make sure everything is okay. I'm here at the *restaurant waiting. Hope all is well." [This is the message you should have left.]

Then she wouldn't be interested in him anymore of course!

Exactly, sg. Why go straight into douche mode, OP? You've shown your true colours to her and whomever set you up with her. It seems you are actually a horrible person. There are many forgiveable reasons to stand someone up.

Haven't you ever heard of the saying assuming makes an ASS out of U and ME. No more assuming OP!!

You mean 'to assume' right? Otherwise you're missing the 'ing' part :p

Yeah don't assume is basically what I mean, I wasn't being super technical.

Quoting a well known saying correctly is now 'super technical'?

I like the use of word play a lot, but that was just totally lame..

Having a pop at someone who didn't NEED to say it properly (as you pointed out, it's a well known saying - we all know what they meant) is arrogant and pathetic. To be super-technical :)

Actually it's pedantic :p (See how I'm still being pedantic, it's a disease I tell you!)

that's why you can't get a real date and have to resort to blind dates. girls won't date you if your an asshole. be nice at first, then when they start to fall in love, be a dick then. for some reason they'll love you even more.

That isn’t emotionally abusive at all…

I bet you feel like a jerk now, OP. I say an apology is in order.

Haha, you may be correct. She probably got the nasty messages and had to come up with a clever excuse. (:

Write her a letter in the style of She Loves Me. "I sat there waiting at the café, never guessing that you were fat-...Near. You were outside, looking bald-..." Worst case scenario, she still thinks you're a jerk. Best case scenario: She laughs about it with you. In fact, just copy the whole letter from that song, not just what I remembered ;P

And that is why one doesn't get moody and hate txt. She could be lying, but you'll see next date. if it's a blind date, you should be having several, and be unphased by this flakiness. Somewhat expected in the beginning... Neither FYL or YDI.
