Today, I went on a date for the first time in eight months. He didn't make a move. I then asked if we were on a date. He said, "I don't know, I guess." I can't tell either. FML

Today, I went on the best date I've been on in years. Later on, over drinks we get talking and I explain how I came out to my friends and family. When I ask him how he came out, he replies that he isn't gay, and oh, did I think this was a date? FML

Today, I was finally asked out on a date after a year of being single. Turns out he got the wrong number. FML

Today, I took my "girlfriend" to a nice restaurant to celebrate our first month anniversary, only to find out she didn't even know we're dating, but only "friends who have sex sometimes." 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 went on my first date in nearly a year. A few minutes into the meal, he called me "scrumptious" and made animal noises for the rest of it. FML

Today, I went out on my first date in 2 months. My sister and her friends were also at the same restaurant we went to. I decided to ignore them but they didn't. As a joke, they though it would be funny if her friend came up and said, "I had fun last night, we should do it again". My date left. FML

Today, I went on my first date in 8 years. While we were looking at the menu, the guy said: "So if you're vegetarian, why're you so fat?" FML

Today, I asked a girl what time she'd like me to pick her up for our date tonight. She didn't know what I was talking about. It seems like, after months of sweaty palms, nervous smiles, and awkward sentences, I only dreamed she said yes to going out. 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

He thought you were until you asked, so he got embarrassed and pretended like he didn't know. Obviously

You think every guy is obliged to make a move on the first date? Sounds like you don't need a date. What you need is a one-night stand. Go to a bar instead. There will be plenty of guys ready to make a move.

just cuz you're on a date doesnt mean you have to engage in physicle activity.. especialy if its your first one... no values or ethics in today's world.. its really saddening...

Thats the problem these days, people get physicle within the first few dates then soon after realise its not working... They dont take the time know one another , instead they just accumulate mileage....not a good thing.. Maybe you're like that but i sure aint . And just cuz its no longer the 1800 doesnt mean people have to forget about ethics and values...

they obviously didn't have great chemistry.. they couldn't even tell if they were on a date. even if so, it's trashy.

I have to agree with 34, making a move on a first date is a bit too fast IMO. if you're making a moving too fast you're only going to know a little to none about that person.

agreed... who cares if it isn't 1800 anymore, there's something called class and basing a relationship on sexual chemistry is NOT a smart thing to do...ever wonder why divorce rates are so high?

If neither of you know if it's a date then it isn't a date, it's just a night out.

does someone have to make a move on the first date? maybe you should just try and have fun and get to know him and not his willy wonka..

This isn't an FML , YDI for not making a move.

You can't rape the willing, and from the looks of it, OP wanted some.

What happened to just trying to have a good time? If you want to make a move, make a move, if you don't (yet), don't, just don't be all hung up about it...
