Today, the guy I've been seeing told me he did not want to pursue a relationship with me after over 2 months of talking. He did the exact same thing to me 7 years ago. I fell for him twice. FML

Another "nice guy" bites the dust

Today, my friend and I went to dinner. At the end, he told me that he’s had feelings for me for a while and wants to be more than friends. I don’t see him that way, so I tried to gently reject him and wanted us to stay friends. He stiffed me with the bill and said, “You can walk home then, buddy!” FML

Today, my boyfriend of four years proposed, and I said yes! Not even three hours later, I got a text message asking if we could just be friends instead. He won't tell me what changed, and doesn't feel like he owes me any explanation. FML

If, after 8 months, you’re still just “talking,” you were never anything more than friends to begin with.

Even if you were dating, it's not right to expect them to make plans for your birthday. You're not their responsibility. If they want to do something like that it should be their decision alone and not brought on by you insinuating you expect it. I'm also with the other comments though.. you've been "talking" for 8 months. If anything was going to get more serious between you two it would have happened already.
