I once complimented a girl I'd met on her hair style, later to discover she had alopecia (not sure on spelling). She cried as she thought I was taking the mickey.

Ouch.
I felt so bad.
A woman I used to work with told me that her disabled brother had had to have his leg amputated. I asked her if he was allowed to keep the leg.

Was he?
LOL
I'm sure everyone's done the classic "I'll see you again, if you're still around." To the new boyfriend of a friend.
Um. Eh?

Everyone says that to my boyfriends... I have no idea why!

Insinuating that the relationship isn't going to last. Sorry, I did it last night and then realised what I had said.

That's probably what puts them off.

I hope the guy last night didn't make the connection either
Said something a tad inappropriate to a victim of the Somali civil war.
Quite embarassing.
