Today, I wrote a poem for this guy I am falling for. Before telling him that I wrote it, he read it and then laughed at how "corny and stupid" it was because he would "never date someone who could come up with something that lame." The poem was about how vulnerable he makes me feel. FML

It's cool that you had the guts to gave him a poem you wrote yourself, but you really shouldn't write about how vulnerable someone makes you feel. And they're a little overdone, making them even more corny. Not everyone appreciates poetry though.

most guys dont like poems specially love poems you should have just told him how you felt its not that hard

you dodged a bullet on that one, you're better off without that asshole.

how did he not know it was from you? did you leave it in his locker or something? because thats extra lame. and really a poem before even telling him you like him? i can understand if you were dating and trying to be cute... but just a love poem out of no where can never be good. maybe your poem was super corny and lame. he wouldnt have said it if it wasnt.

Most dudes aren't into poetry. Try another strategy and see what happens.

Writing poetry for people ALWAYS makes you look like a stalker. You should have known.

Okay what a douche bag of a guy. He's not worth it if he acts like that right away. Also what's with the people agreeing with #3 who's mental state is one of a neanderthal. Girls should be able write poetry for guys. For God sake, we're living in the 21st century! It's just sexist.

You're an idiot because, A.) Love poems are epic failures. B.) The only time love poems aren't epic failures is when they're well written. C.) Even some of the best authors cannot write a good poem. D.) You're a creeper for giving some guy an anonymous love poem. E.) How vulnerable he makes you feel? Ew, uh, this isn't sex ed, it's real life.

I don't get why everyone thinks the guy is such an asshole, he was being honest, he's obviously not into poetry and he didn't know she wrote it. I'm a woman and if a guy wrote me a poem about his feelings for me, I'd be a bit weirded out myself because I'm not into that sort of thing at all. When doing something like that you really have to take the person you're writing it for into consideration, because obviously poetry is not for everyone.

Wow, what a douche. Don't listen to people on here, there's nothing wrong with writing a love poem for a guy. Not knowing that you wrote them for him is no excuse for his behaviour. My ex would write poems for me and I loved them, even if I didn't really get them.
