Today, I realised I haven't had a date in so long that I actually seriously considered meeting someone from online, purely based on the fact he could spell properly. 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 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

Don't cheat

Today, I finally met the guy I've been getting to know online in person for a date. When we saw each other, we both realized that we had heavily Facetuned our profile pictures. The awkward silence that followed was the longest five minutes of my life. FML

Is this catfishing?

Today, I went on a date with someone I've been talking to online for weeks. Unfortunately, it turns out they'd used old photos and misrepresented themselves, and I didn't find them attractive at all. Even I'm not that desperate. We ended up having an awkward dinner and I couldn't wait for it to be over. FML

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, my boyfriend broke up with me via text message. You would think he could at least spell my name right while ending our relationship. FML

Today, I joined a dating website and spent all day filling out and improving my profile. My first match is a guy who relentlessly tried to date me for all 4 years of high school. Now he just has more reasons to tell me how much we're meant to be. We're a 97% match. FML

Oh dear. So you go on at someone for using a perfectly acceptable different spelling to you, and then when someone points that out you don't care? And not only that, you fail to use a question mark at the end of post number 2 and also use 'your' rather than 'you're'. Apart from that, you seem pretty cool and intellectual.

OP, you aren't alone. Pretty much all the Grammar Nazi's here are like that. (I'm kidding, but I welcome indignant comments, just for laughs.) How exactly did you ask him out, though? "Hi, I saw you used your instead of you're! I like that in a man. Pick me up at 7." Mental image planted.

Correct spelling and grammar is a very important trait. I say go for it with the good speller, it is not very common anymore

For those complaining about the OP's spelling of 'realised' you should realize that in most former British colonies, that is the correct spelling.

Those of you dissing her for ''realise'', it is the british version of spelling ''realize''. the world does not consist of just the united states, you ignorant fools.
