Today, I was on a dinner date with a guy I really like. I guess I was on my phone too much because halfway through the date he sent me a text saying how much my half of the bill would be. FML

Today, I went on a dinner date with the guy I like. He ate all his food then started eating off my plate, going on to eat over half of my food. When the bill came, he made me pay for it. FML

Today, I went on a coffee date with a guy I'm interested in. He picked up his phone mid-date to finalize dinner plans with another girl. FML

I'm trash

Today, I went on a date with this guy and he was on his phone the whole night. When I got home I checked his Facebook since he barely paid attention to me. His status was, "So-and-so is taking out the trash" from mobile posted an hour ago. I got home from my date 30 mins ago. FML

Today, I was on a date with a guy I've been crushing on. In the middle of the dinner, he said he had to go get something from his car. When I asked what it was, he smiled and said it was a surprise. I waited for my surprise for half an hour. Then I decided to pay the bill and go home and cry. FML

Today, I went on a date at a restaurant with a guy. When he promised I wouldn't have to pay the bill, I didn't think he meant we'd be dining and dashing. FML

Today, I went on a date with a guy who seemed to be quite the gentleman. I was proven wrong when he told me to "shut it" during dinner, stiffed me on the bill, and then left me at the restaurant so he could get his own taxi home. FML

Tonight on First Dates

Today, I went on a date that went well, until the bill came and she quickly shoved it in my direction, then went to the loo. Rude, but I thought nothing of it… until our waiter took pity and told me I’m the fourth guy she’s had this week who'd been made to pay for her. I paid half, then went home. FML

Today, I went on a date with a guy who kept checking his phone every five minutes. When I asked him if everything was okay, he told me he was just playing Candy Crush. FML

Today, I was on a first date. When the bill came, he refused to pay for my $6 salad. I had to go ATM-hunting to pay for my $6 salad. FML

That's incredibly rude of you. You "guess"?! I'd would say that you were. Be a little more polite next time and stash your phone away; the newest twitter updates can wait.

And was there anything so terribly important that it couldn't wait until after the date? I hope you enjoy the company of your phone, because if this is normal behavior for you, the only person you will work out with is one who does the same. Then, you get to be in the same room with each other, but not really together.

Your a dick. If you really like him then you shouldn't even be on your phone at all. Talk to him. This isn't FML worthy its your ******* fault

"Today, I went on a date. She stayed on the phone the entire time. She only acknowledged me after I got fed up and sent her a text. FML"

Putting your phone before your date means you're not ready to go out.

Im going to take a hunch and assume she was to busy reading FML's on her phone, that she did not notice she was actually staring in her own. Well done OP...well done.

YDI. You're on a date, I'm sure your friends and Facebook can wait. I hate when people do this. I don't get to see my sister much but when I do, she is too busy texting. It drives me crazy. This society is going downhill. Next time learn to be more attentive on a date, or continue to be single.

Wow...rude much? What was so important about your phone that you had to be on it so much? Was someone dying? Was the world falling into chaos because you were not on your phone? YDI all the way.

If it's anything that pisses me off the worst it's when I'm trying to hang out with someone like a friend and they do nothing but sit on there phone the whole time I find it incredibly rude. Now to be on a date and do nothing but sit on your phone is terrible. You totally deserved it and maybe take this as a learning experiance and the next date you go on if you even get one maybe put your phone away? Unless it's an emergency of course.
