Today, the guy I liked came over for dinner with some friends. One of them asked him if we were dating, he became so distraught he started to choke on the food I had made, in his haste to tell them that in no uncertain terms, were we together. FML
This is phrased really badly. I can't tell if he was saying no or yes, because you used the phrase "in no uncertain terms" it makes it seem like he choked while saying yes you are together.
He probably did that because he does like you and wants to be protected against any rejection embarrassment. Sure it's a dick move, but so many people do this because humans are ****** and stupid always.

Well if he is a guy you like, and he choked on the food in his haste to tell the other fellow that, in no uncertain terms, you were together-- that's a good thing, no?
#24 The problem is that the writer doesn't know the meaning of the tern "in no uncertain terms". She saw the word "no" and assumed it was another way to say no. It's not, but she's trying to say he was denying a relationship.

Dear everybody correcting the op's grammar,
Her post says, "by no uncertain terms WERE WE together."
Not the "we were" most of you are trying to imply.
If you're going to correct someone's grammar, please make sure you've read it right first.

Omg i can relate to this so much, it hurts so bad.

That could mean two things. Either he really doesn't want to date you, or else he actually does want to date you and was embarresed by the question because you were standing right next to him. I think the last one is the most plausible :)
I'm sorry that happened to you... but your comma usage is so wrong! I had to read it several times to figure out what you were saying. Ergo, I'm sending a 'You deserved that one' your way.
Have you just experienced an FML moment?
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Today, the guy I liked choked in his haste to confirm that, yes, we are a couple. FML. ...am I missing something?
