Dating, First Dates and Love: Let down

Let down

By heartbreakkid21 - 14/05/2009 15:22 - United States

Today, I was on a date with this girl I actually like. The date was going really well and it seemed like it would be a good night. While in the movie theater, I went to hold her hand and instead she gave me a hand shake and said, "You're so funny, I'm so glad we're friends". FML

Today, the girl I've had a crush on decided she wanted to see a movie with me. I tried to hold her hand during the movie and it was great for about 4 minutes. Then she said "Can I have my hand back?" FML

Today, I was on a date with this girl. I attempted to put my arm around her, but I elbowed her in the face instead. FML

Today, I was on a date with a girl I've had feelings for since I was 14 (I'm 22). I took her out to dinner, then to a movie that we both liked and had a few drinks afterwards. I thought it was going really well until I was driving her home and she asked to be dropped off at her boyfriend's house. FML

Today, I had a date with the girl I've been interested in for months. I'm pretty laid-back and casual with my friends, which backfired and caused the date to end with a slap, when I greeted her with a friendly "S'up, slut?" FML

Today, I asked the girl I like if she wanted to go to the movies, she said yes and I said I'd let her pick the movie. She picked the movie, "Just Friends". FML

Today, my friends set me up on a blind date. I thought it went well, and while saying our goodbyes, I leaned in to give her a kiss. She pulled way, laughed, "I'm not drunk enough for that," and left. FML

Double standard

By Sara1990 - 23/08/2010 11:40 - Australia

Today, I went on a double date with my bestfriend. At the end of the night, her boyfriend gave her a long kiss, and texted her 5 minutes after we left to say he missed her already. My boyfriend picked his nose, then gave me a fist bump as a goodbye. FML

Today, I took a girl out on a date. We had dinner, we had good conversation, the vibe was excellent, and everything was great. I took her to a bar I frequent after for a couple of drinks to finish the night. She left with some other dude on his motorcycle. FML

lol, owned at least she was nice and took it in stride it could have been worse. She could have jumped back disgusted and screamed "WHAT THE HELL!? WHY ARE YOU TOUCHING ME!?! RAAAAAAAPPPPPEEEEEE!!!"

Sucks. Sounds like both of you had a different idea of what was going on...

I agree with #10. She obviously likes you, even if it's just as a friend right now, so all you have to do is keep trying.

That sucks man. Girls are retarded. I know a bunch of them who complain that they can't get a man, but half the time they get hit on, or asked out, and they don't even know what's going on. Just hold out for a more mature girl.

#7 and #15 -- no Let her know up front. She's not going to become friends with you and then magically fall in love. That rarely happens and is not worth the pain you'll cause yourself. It's also not very respectful to her if you become friends with her but have other things in mind.

"Today, I was on a date with this girl I actually like." Do you go on dates with lots of girls you don't actually like?

Dude that really sucks! I know how that might feel.. Anyway you should have tried to sense the body language and kind of expected/anticipated the reaction before trying.. maybe this will help http://linkbee.com/OMV1 it's quite a guide so best of luck next time You can still get her I guess.. just be wise in your next moves..

She was trying to let you down without hurting your feelings, just like #9 said. Oh well, you can just remain friends with her (and maybe things will pick up from there). Or, you can be a dick and ignore her from now on because you don't want friends you can't ****.
