Social anxiety wins again

By sierra - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, an attractive guy asked me to get coffee with him. My response was, "I don't drink coffee." I turned down the first guy to ask me out in 3 months. FML

Hot chocolate, tea, Italian soda, water, you could have even got a ******* lemon square!!!

It's not as if coffee places don't sell other drinks too. :/

Wow he sure dodged a bullet, you're not a smart one are you?

I have an idiot friend who has said this before. Even though she's very attractive, she's 50 and single. I can't get it through her thick skull it's not about the coffee! Just go and watch him drink coffee -- drink tea or eat a biscotta if you have to. Watching him put his mouth around that hot, steamy vessel ought to be worth your time ;)

If he's someone you can run into again(neighbor or co-worker or something)try asking him out instead. Obviously if he asked you out he thinks you're attractive so GO GET HIM. Don't let slip ups ruin things.

Don't be foolish. She won't do that because it would require HER to risk rejection. Women are too cowardly to do that.

It's like that time this super-hot girl asked me to go with her to Victoria's Secret. I said, "No, I don't wear that stuff . . . (under my breath) as far as you know." "Protecting My Virginity since 19??"™

And, this is why so many women complain they are single and can't find a date or a nice guy.

A simple word. COMPRIMISE. Offer to go and get something you like instead. I'm sure he'd be willing to do so.

You know coffee places offer many other types of drinks (tea, hot chocolate, juices, smoothies, iced coffees) haha.

She could've ordered ******* water o__O
