Today, I finally got a date with one of the hottest girls in school, a perfect 10. Just before I go to pick her up to go to the movies, I called her to find out where she lives. She answered the phone, only to hear my father yelling in the background, "STOP TALKING TO THAT WHORE." FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. It's OK, though, she says we can still go on the vacation I planned next month for our 3 year anniversary, just "as friends." The tickets are non-refundable. FML

Sorry OP, but it doesn't sound like she's worth it. You will be better off without her. I hope you meet the right girl soon!

If she accepted a date with you I have to assume you acted really strange on the date, she didn't have to be so harsh about it but still

WTH ?!!! Sounds like she was kind of a jerk. best of luck, OP, but I think you may have dodged a bullet. People who hide behind text messages aren't worth your time, OP.

I'm not gonna be so sympathetic for you. I'm not sure how you can completely oblivious to the lack of chemistry. What were you doing that made her night that bad?

Sympathies. But maybe you need to re-evaluate your dating technique.

As a guy, fellow guys sometimes make even less sense to me than women. Here's why: Guys: "I hate friendzone. If she doesn't like me why can't she just tell me instead of giving me false hopes?" Now here's this girl, tells OP honestly that she doesn't want to see him again(obviously, the date was not so great as he described it, otherwise the girl wouldn't have said this) Guys: "What a bitch, you deserve better, that's not nice" **** logic...

Today, after two months of being broken up, and my ex still insisting she hadn't been cheating on me, I declared via text my intention to burn the rest of her stuff in the yard. This resulted in the guy she "hadn't been cheating on me with" kicking in my door. FML

Today, yet again I had to lie to a date about what I do for a living, because every time I tell someone the truth, that I work in private equity, they have some choice words about "people like me ruining things" and "ruining the housing prices." I feel like an evil James Bond or something. FML

Today, my wife asked me what I wanted to do this weekend. It’s been so long since she asked, I froze up, unable to think of anything I might enjoy doing that she wouldn’t immediately say no to. It ended up the same as every weekend; we now have plans to go shopping, then visit her mother. FML
