A few days ago, I arranged to meet a girl I’d been chatting with on a dating app. We exchanged photos, and although we hadn’t met in person, we were both excited. The problem was that when I arrived at the restaurant, I saw someone I thought was her. I walked up, told her she looked amazing, and even tried to hug her. Turns out, she wasn’t my date but someone else waiting for someone. She looked at me like I was crazy, and right at that moment, my actual date arrived and saw me in this very awkward situation.

I tried to explain that I had mistaken this other girl for her, but she was visibly upset and a bit distrustful. The whole evening was awkward, and even though I tried to fix it, I think everything was a disaster.

TL;DR: TIFU by not recognizing my date and mistaking her for someone else
