False red flag

By Anonymous - 13/02/2013 05:12 - United States - Palo Alto

Today, working as a waitress, I was asked by a customer, yet again, how my baby was doing. I don't have a baby, but I do look very similar to my 25-year-old coworker, who's a new mom. People confuse us all the time. Unfortunately, my crush, who was standing nearby, doesn't know that. FML

Say "Sorry, I do not have a child, my coworker is the one who recently had a baby" very loudly, so your crush can hear.

This is not the mother you are looking for...

Exactly, or at least at the same level as the person who asked. This FML seems so very trivial.

would be the best clarification..

No you're not a duck. Ducks cant type on keyboards

2 - Nawwwp. This would make waaaaay too much sense for someone to actually do. This is barely an FML because it is resolved in the next few lines anyway. Unless of course OP is so socially awkward that her brain BSOD'd on her. @OP What's wrong with moms? I pulled a 24 year old HB7.5 mother of three last Saturday. I never date moms, but I'll ONS them, and that's usually all they want anyway. I like to call it a win-win scenario.

i'm not sure he'll be gaga over you anymore.

I dunno, some guys would find it attractive. He might want his goo goo all up in... I can't think of an appropriate way to make that joke, sorry.

#3, I wouldn't be so sure. Her crush could be thinking his chances of getting laid are pretty good, since she "has a kid".

This is not the mother you are looking for...

*waves hand* "You're right, this is not the mother I'm looking for." *walks away entranced*

If he asks about it, say it's just a misunderstanding and offer to explain over coffee.

It's OP that has a crush on him, as far as we know, it doesn't work the other way around. So, why would he bother to ask? The point is, it just decreases OP's chances.

Do you look big enough to look like you just gave birth?! That should be your FML..

I think you should start wearing a name plate for yourself.

You mean, waitress actually have names? I thought it was just bar wench

At least you might get tipped more if the customers think you've just become a mum...

This is very true. My tips quadrupled in my third trimester, and still stayed around triple, with my regulars at least, for over a year. Helped out SO much!

So, you're having a hard time getting rid of the "baby weight?" Maybe your crush is a plumpa humpa? If the guy is frequently at your restaurant, he's not just there for the pie -- at least, not that kind of pie ;)

Pecan is my favorite, followed by Cream.

I think he would prefer to cream it himself.

#12, back in the day, he'd be jonesing for Hair Pie, but I guess that flavor has fallen out of favor.
