Today, a friend and I went to Gamestop to pick up a game he wanted. I ended up buying a 17+ game, and I was prepared to show my license, but he stopped me an said, "I know you're 18". He then said, "Man, I've pretty much watched you grow up in this store." A game salesman watched me grow up. FML

OP here. It's a FML to me because, I'm not ashamed of being a gamer, I feel that it's just a pretty dorky situation. I totally was caught off guard when the site gave this entry the green light. I just thought it would be funny to share. A bit of background though, #155 is completely right, it's only been like 4 years.

That's more of FHL. He's been working at a game store for all those years. Atleast you had an excuse, you liked playing video games. Not all kids are into going out and playing sports etc.

No shame in anything in this FML. The OP, The employee, and the readers are all perfectly fine people.

Well, I would notice if I worked at a game store and someone kept returning every now and then. It's good to have returning customers.

How the hell is this an FML? A normal person would call this heartwarming.

Well, maybe you game too much, but it is kinda nice that the guy noticed and took an interest. Just give him a smile next time. And maybe cut back on the gaming, just a bit. Genuine human connections grow more and more rare these days, so value this.
