Today, I told my coworkers that I was going on a date tonight so they would think I have a social life. One of them spotted me while I was eating alone at McDonalds. FML

CreamGravy tells us more.

Well to be honest I made the whole thing up because I got tired of being that one guy at work who can't get a girlfriend. It's a small place, there are only 8 of us who work there, and I'm the only one that's single, so I get jokes about it quite a lot. They're nothing bad, I know it's all in fun, but yesterday someone made yet another joke about it and for some reason I just blurted out that I had a date tonight. As soon as I did I figured might as well go with the story, so when I got questioned about it I made up a fake name and description for the girl as well. The best part is that I told everyone I was taking her to this really fancy and expensive restaurant, so when they saw me at McDonalds it was ironic actually. Luckily for me today is a holiday, but I have a feeling tomorrow the mocking is going to be worse than ever. I voted YDI by the way.

I guess it didn't turn out to be one happy meal... :D

you should've just told them that you got stood up.

This is what you do: tell them you went on the date, you met up with her. But before you could she started acting really crazy. You can add in to that if you want. Then say you started to eat but she did something to prevent you from eating. So finally the date ended and you say that you don't think you ever want to see her again. SO since you weren't able to eat during the date, you stopped at McDonald's. problem solved.

QUEENSlANDER, QUEENSLANDER, QUEENSLANDER! Sorry, but that sucks

When you make up something like that you don't go anywhere for that might. You stay home so you can't bump into anyone. Or at the very least you go to drive thru.

Your co-workers sound like total dicks, next time they give you a hard time about being single just say "you're right now excuse me while I go do whatever I want, whenever I want and answer to nobody about it." Being single is chill, don't let anyone make you feel bad about it.

aww, you're not a loser OP. You'll find a girl someday and start making fun of the next single guy. at least you have a funny story to tell!

just tell them you're the big mac daddy!
