Today, while driving home from school, I noticed one of our hot quarterbacks in the car behind me. Trying to impress him, I pulled into the driveway of an expensive-looking house. To my horror, he pulled in behind me and asked what I was doing at his house. FML

YDI, why make a guy judge you from where you live than who you really are. Hope you had a good excuse for pulling up to his place.

Wow ydi, if you think that having to impress someone by where you live makes a difference. The house would belong to the parents, not you, it doesn't show anything about YOU...

For all you know, the people in this anecdote may be well-off college students living on their own.

Valid point, but it just read as someone in high school to me. IMHO people usually stop trying to be what they are not and find out who they really are by the time they have their own house.

while that may be true, we live in a world with incredibly shallow people. in fact, we ALL have a shallow side... I think a big house would impress most people

I don't think we ALL have a shallow side.. I think it's mostly people who have been raised in circumstances where a "shallow side" is normal that actually have a "shallow side"

This is why you shouldn't try and be someone you're not in order to impress someone you buffoon.

what happens when OP doesn't have a gps or the gps isn't installed? Then they'll look worse.

Smartphones typically have GPS-ish apps.

How many damned FMLs are we going to see that contain the phrase "trying to impress him/her"? ALWAYS an instant "You're an idiot". I petition for the creation of a "You're an idiot!" button.

^ While it would be more fun to push a "Your an idiot" button, "you deserve it" pretty much says exactly that, as only an idiot would do most anything ydi can cover. ;P Yes I know you know that. Just restating the obvious I guess. ;P

Doc, I will gladly sign your petition. Why can't these people just learn that trying to impress someone or trying to look cool will never work? :(

At least you learned a lesson about trying to be someone you're not.

But wouldn't the guy look to see which tire was flat and would then notice that no tire was flat. That would only make the situation much more awkward.

That's when you kiss him and before he realizes what happened, you run to the car and drive as fast as you can.

That's when you kiss him and before he even realizes what happened, hop in your car and drive as fast as possible.

Should have played it off and said oh wrong house then. My friend so and so lives around here. I'll have to call her and see exactly where it is. Easy enough. Besides that would be dumb to impress like that. What if he ever really wanted to go to your house and then you would have to tell him u lied!
