Today, my best friend got engaged to the guy she's been seeing for five years. He also happens to be the man I've been in love with for eight. As she was giving me the details, she nonchalantly gave me her reason for accepting the proposal: "Why the hell not, there's always divorce." FML

8 years?? Perhaps it's time for you to move on?? And for those saying for OP to tell him, I think she's missed her window. He wouldn't have proposed if he didn't love her best friend, and no decent friend or human would ruin their best friend's relationship or wedding.

Ouch. That's a doomed marriage for sure, and that sucks for everyone involved. But if dreamboy can't see that she's that shallow and stupid after 5 years, then you should probably stop dreaming about him and find someone better.

You need to tell him what she said. If you tell him your feelings though obviously he will only think your telling him because of personal gain. You will lose her as a friend but in the end you will be saving him a lot of future hardship.

Yeah, this sounds like the plot to "Something Borrowed".

You're obviously better than her... That so damn sad that he'd pick her over you. I'm truly sorry Hun :/.

That's stupid to say he should've picked her over the best friend when OP never made an attemp to tell him how she felt. It's her own damn fault.

YDI for not telling how you felt 8 years ago -.- Sorry OP but its time to move on

If your friend knew about your feelings before she ever started dating him, she's a pretty horrible friend. On the other hand, if you kept quiet about your feelings you don't really have a right to be upset. Also, if you told this guy how you felt a long time ago and he rejected you, then maybe you shouldn't be hanging out with him since it seems to be impossible for you to move on while he's still in your life.

Unless she knows that you're in love with him it's your fault. I'm sorry, but you should've made your move when you had the 3yr chance
