Today, as my lame excuse to not give a guy I met at a club my phone number, I told him I didn't have a cell phone. Guess what I checked when he asked me what time it was a few minutes later. FML

Today, I realized that I accidentally said my phone number wrong when I was giving it to a really smart, cute guy with all the same interests as me that I met at a bar last night. I'd had a few drinks and had gotten the middle three digits mixed up. FML

Today, a cute guy came up to me and asked for my phone number. I was super excited and began to write it down when he said, "It doesn't have to be your real number, I'm not gonna call anyway." I still gave him my real number. FML

Unknown number

Today, I gave my phone number to a guy at the movie theatre. I was excited to receive a text a few minutes later, sure enough when I unlocked my phone I had received a message from an unknown number. It was his girlfriend. FML

Today, I went to a rock concert and met this amazing girl. We started talking and then swapped cell numbers. Five minutes later, she asks to see my cellphone, so I gave it to her. Once I got home I went to text her and saw that she deleted her number. FML

Today, I accidentally left my cell phone at the restaurant. When I realized my mistake, I went back to see if anyone had found it. They said no, so I gave them my number to call if it turned up. I realized later that I'd given them my cell phone number. FML

Today, while at a club, I walked up to a cutie who had been eyeing me all night. I asked him "Is that a phone in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?". He simply replied "It's a phone" before walking away. FML

Today, I looked in my pocket for the phone number of a girl I met last night at a party. I remembered us talking and exchanging phone numbers. When I found the piece of paper, I discovered that instead of writing her number down, I had drunkenly written down my own. FML

Today, I chatted to a nice guy and gave him my number. I told him I was going to sleep because I had a headache, and then put my phone on silent. He rang multiple times, and when I obviously didn't pick up, he sent several texts insulting me and calling me gutless for not responding. FML

Today, I went to a club with a couple of my friends. I met a really cute guy and we were getting along pretty well. We eventually exchanged numbers. Later on I decided to call him and set up a date. The number he gave me was the Rejection Hotline number. FML

You should have just straight up said no.

That guy is pretty smart to trick you into revealing your lie. You could have told him you were holding your friends phone, or something like that.

You should have said..."AND DO THE HARLEM SHAKE" And awkwardly went crazy as you danced away.

Whelp, that was derpy. He probably felt really bad afterwards too. When something like this happens again, just be honest and tell the guy you're not interested; it's always better to be straight with these things.

After you rejected this guy, you should have told him to leave you the **** alone. Otherwise, claim your device was an iPod touch or the SIM card was stolen out of your phone.

Just say that your cellphone is your mother's. She insisted you take it because she loves you too much & wanted you to have one in case of an emergency. I sympathize with you OP. I feel too guilty after potentially hurting somebody's feelings. But it would have been much easier to just tell the truth.

At which point you should have informed him that this phone was actually your drunken friends phone and you were looking after it for them. Then say you need to go find them and check they're okay before you get in anymore of an awkward situation.
