Dating, Facebook, Social Media and Love: I'm trash

I'm trash

By skreweduP - 15/06/2009 23:57 - United States

Today, I went on a date with this guy and he was on his phone the whole night. When I got home I checked his Facebook since he barely paid attention to me. His status was, "So-and-so is taking out the trash" from mobile posted an hour ago. I got home from my date 30 mins ago. FML

Today, I was on a dinner date with a guy I really like. I guess I was on my phone too much because halfway through the date he sent me a text saying how much my half of the bill would be. FML

Today, I went on a date with a guy who kept checking his phone every five minutes. When I asked him if everything was okay, he told me he was just playing Candy Crush. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. My date spent the whole time at the restaurant on his phone and didn't even try to show interest. Thankfully I'll never have to deal with this individual ever again. FML

Today, I went on a coffee date with a guy I'm interested in. He picked up his phone mid-date to finalize dinner plans with another girl. FML

Today, I went on a blind date. Not only did his phone go flat before I found him, but we were at totally different bars. FML

Today, my boyfriend came over and dropped off my phone, which I'd left at his place the night before. He immediately left in a sulk. As I looked through my texts, I discovered he was only so moody because I hadn't answered any of his calls or messages. I'm dating an idiot. FML

He's one of those people

Today, my phone kept beeping, so I put it on silent and went back to sleep. When I woke up later, I found the guy I went on a date with last night had sent dozens of messages. The first was "Good morning! :)" and the last was "Answer me u fuckin cunt!!!!" I think I'm staying single. FML

Today, I went on an online date. I'd spent a while getting ready and making sure I looked good. When I arrived at the café, I saw my date and approached with a smile. He stood up, looked me over, and said, "Oh, I thought you were your profile picture’s friend." Then left. FML

Today, I rang my girlfriend to make sure she made it home alright. She told me to check my Facebook. Nothing was different so I hit refresh. We were no longer in a relationship. I got dumped via Facebook whilst on the phone to her. FML

Today, I went on a Grindr date with a really cute guy. I thought things went really well. When he dropped me off at home, he told me not to text him anymore because his wife might get mad. FML

That sucks. Even though he wasn't interested in you, he could have still been polite. It's extremely rude to ignore the person you are having dinner with. I probably would have grabbed his phone and chucked it at the wall.

Lyndis (#22) hit the nail on the head. These stories certainly don't represent everybody, but the nice, normal, rational person that can take rejection tactfully is a rare thing indeed.

OH MY GOD...that's just RUDE, in every sense of the word. Sheer douchebaggery, not just to say something like that, but to say it in a way that you could see it? And on Facebook...ughh that's just lower than low. Is it too much to ask for people to just say things to your face nowadays? All this technology is just making everyone really passive-aggressive and cowardly. Even if you are a really bad date, FYL. And #22 (lyndis) is an asshole T_T

Is this the same girl who lied to her blind date (chubby but not fat) in a previous fml??? And this is the actual date? Because that would make a lot of sense.

I ******* hate being around people who are so phone absorbed they can't pay attention to real life interaction. He's a dick, so you should tell him so.

There was an FML yesterday about a boy being told he was cute, then he turned around and the girls said they were sorry for misjudging based on their view of his ass. So, guy gets insulted by a girl, and 100% sympathetic comments POUR in, about how girls are bitches, and how they're sure he's cute and he sounds really sweet. Now, we have THIS one from a woman, and a guy insulting her. What do we do? Half the people blame her for associating with an asshole (um, how about blaming the guy for being an asshole?) and say that his treatment towards her MUST be justified. Yay sexism.

#38 so true. Why are people bashing her for staying? if she had walked out, people would've called her a drama queen. And girls are generally taught that if a guy takes them out that they should be "nice" even if they don't like the guy. And seriously, why is it when a boy gets rejected, everyone think's the girl's a shallow bitch, but when a girl is rejected, it's her own fault?

I was thinking the same thing! It's like people are still stuck in the dark ages. Everything has to be the woman's fault in one way or another. Ahah. Hah. I say FHL because the GUY was being an asshole.

Lmao, is it the way you dress? (I'm assuming that he meant "taking out" like "taking out on a date" and "the trash" meaning "you" and maybe you're a trashy girl? I dunno. Maybe I'm stupid.)

hello! if i was on a date with someone and they took out thier phone i would say something about it instead of just letting it continue to happen...like "hey asshole, were on a date, do you know how rude it is to take out your ******* phone on a date?, put it away or i will throw it out the window"

Bad enough to start bitching about the date before it was even over, but to do it on a public website that you knew he was on and where it would come up on your homepage so you would almost certainly see it even if you didn't deliberately check? He's either an even bigger arsehole than you first thought or a complete idiot. And either way, you've probably had a narrow escape. Sorry that happened to you, though.
