Money, Embarrassing, Clothes and Shopping: Silly idea

Silly idea

By jameen - This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff - United Kingdom - Tadley

Today, whilst out shopping with my crush, I decided to jokingly try on a silly-looking dress in an overly-expensive shop. Apparently I took the wrong size as I couldn't get out. Not only did the shop assistants have to publicly cut me out of the dress, I had to pay for it. FML

Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. Feeling bad, I texted him a few hours later apologizing. He said it was fine and that he went ahead and picked up a girl from the mall. FML

Today, I went on a blind date at a fancy restaurant. My date was running a bit late, so I went ahead and got a table. I got bored, so I decided to ask my waiter how I looked. He stood there, then said that, "It's against company policy to mock customers to their face." FML

Today, while I was inside a store, I heard a crash. Of course I ignored it because my car was parked. I paid for my items and walked out to see this. Nobody else was around. FML

People of Walmart

Today, at work as a cashier, a guy came up with a cart full of stuff and it took me 10 minutes to ring it all up. When I told him his total, he felt his pockets, said, "Oh shit, I forgot my wallet!" and walked off. He left about 15 bags worth of things for me to put back. FML

Today, I went shopping with my sister. Looking for something to say, I told her how one of my friends had been burglarized. Then I realised it was Bree on Desperate Housewives. FML

Today, I was at a water park with my family. They wanted me to stand underneath this big bucket filled with water. I didn't know it tips over, and my swimsuit isn't the tightest, so when all the water fell down, my swimsuit bottoms fell to my knees in front of tons of kids. FML

How hard did you try to zip it so that there was no way to get out other than to be cut out? YDI

You should have bought it, and worn it until your fat ass lost enough weight to get out of it.

Anorexics can still get stuck in clothing if they put clothes on that are sizes too small. Nothing about this would suggest that she's overweight.

I'm sure anorexics get stuck in clothing all the time. Clearly your reasoning skills are superior to mine.

Try holding it up to your shoulders in a mirror or for your boyfriend! It will save money and the dress! The stupid dress got the last laugh!

YDI Op. If you can't afford to buy something then there is no point in trying it on, and it is just stupid to try to squeeze your ass into clothes that are too tight. Hopefully this expensive lesson will teach you for your future clothes shopping trips. Measure yourself so you are aware of your size. There is nothing cute about someone, no matter how skinny or fat wearing clothes that is so tight that you get stuck and bust the seams. I hope for your sake that you didn't scare off or repulse your crush. Next time, you'll get better results if you try on something that fits and looks cute...maybe if you did that your crush might of just thought you looked great in the outfit and bought it for you...anyways, I'm sure that he must of gotten a good laugh at your expense.

You sound bitter. Why slam her? Many shops that are specialty or exclusive makes of clothing run small. A measuere of grace goes a long way.

Lol...not bitter, but I do know the term 'if you break it, you buy it.' And yes I am aware that sizing can be different but it is very hard to believe that she didn't realize that the dress was so skin tight that she was going to get stuck.
