Fake news

Today, I went to a coffee shop to meet an online date. I couldn't spot him, so he eventually came up and introduced himself. It seems his on-line picture must have been taken before I was born. I spluttered "This isn't going to work," and promptly scuttled out. FML

Today, I met a guy in a bar. He was sweet and funny so I asked him out for coffee later. He quickly turned me down, saying that I didn't even meet his first requirement. His first requirement was "looks like a girl." FML

Today, I went on an online date. I'd spent a while getting ready and making sure I looked good. When I arrived at the café, I saw my date and approached with a smile. He stood up, looked me over, and said, "Oh, I thought you were your profile picture’s friend." Then left. FML

Today, I had a date with someone I met online. We agreed to meet at a nice restaurant. I got there early, ordered a drink, and waited. And waited. An hour later, I texted to ask where he was. His response? "I’ve been watching you from my car for the last hour. Decided you’re not my type." FML

Today, I went on a date with a guy I met online. It was going OK, until he started asking me if he should stick with the site until he finds the right person. I guess I know how he feels about me, at least. FML

Today, I went to a local bar for a speed dating event. The first person I hooked up with took one look at my face, burst into laughter, and walked out of the bar practically doubling over. FML

Don't most dating sites have a picture of yourself. Was it honest?

Better than wasting your time to come to the same conclusion later. #10 - touche.

i mean, dating online can be a great way to meet ppl if say, you're single and live in suburbia where everyone's married with families, or if you live in a really rural area, etc. But if you showed him an honest, current picture of yourself and he still said that, he's a douche. However, if you live in a city and r still dating online and gave him a pic of you from 10 years ago when you were better looking, then YDI for being so desperate to lie to and think they wouldn't figure it out.

Maybe he just got scared when he saw your immense beauty... Ummm, no, he wasn't.

Dating online is *obviously* inferior to going out to clubs and bars, 'cause we all know how great relationships start where you're letting your tequilla do the talking and your dick/pussy do the thinking... To the OP: I'm sorry this guy is such a jerk.

I saw something strangely similar to this happen last week. I laughed quite a bit when I got out of the coffee shop.

What a dick. Looks like he saved you the trouble of taking a whole date to figure it out! Better luck next time, though.

Today, so you know how in the movies there’s a dad who discovers he’s not actually the dad because they had to get a DNA test, and it’s funny because it’s all just a movie. Real life isn’t that funny. My twin boys had to go to hospital for blood tests and so on, and it turns out they’re not mine. FML

Today, a man pulled me violently into an alleyway and informed me I was being mugged. Being a body-builder, I said, "Oh yeah? Go on then." He kicked my ass in a matter of seconds, stole my wallet, then farted on my bruised face. He called me a wimp. FML

Today, after I found gold coins a few years ago, nothing newsworthy but enough to pay off my parents' mortgage, some landowning douche, who is already a millionaire, is now claiming the lake where I found the coins is his, and is suing me for the coins' full value. If I lose in court, my parents may have to sell their house. FML
