Today, the man I love chose yet another woman over me. For months and months on end I’ve been trying to make him see that I would make a great girlfriend and life companion, yet he dismisses me and chooses other people. What do they have that I don’t? What do I have to do to be good enough? FML

College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
Today, the guy I’ve been in love with for almost a year, who told me he “wasn’t in the right headspace” for a relationship is actually dating some girl. Every time I try to get close to a guy, they make up excuses. I’m starting to lose faith in love and think I’ll never be good enough for anyone. FML
Today, the guy I had to let go because he told me he didn’t “want a relationship or anything serious” started becoming exclusive with someone else. This is the fourth guy this has happened with. What’s wrong with me? Why am I not good enough to date? FML
Today, I asked my best friend, who I love, what his new girlfriend has that I don’t. I've gone the extra mile, did favors, been there at his highest and lowest for about a year and a half, yet he rejected me and chose a girl who he’s merely known 5 months. Apparently a slim waist and perky boobs/butt matters more. FML
Today, I’m about to lose the love of my life. I love this man with every fiber of my being, but his kids are absolute fucking monsters. They treat me like shit and he doesn’t intervene. I’m so heartbroken, but what else can I do? FML
Today, I gave my boyfriend an ultimatum: me, the girl who’s been there through thick and thin for the past 2 years, supported him through his unemployment and death of his father, and who cooks and cleans for him every day, or the girl coworker who he’s been emotionally cheating on me with. Guess who he chose. FML
Today, the girl I’ve moved mountains and bent over backwards for chose another man over me. When I asked her why him and not me, she said, “He’s more attractive.” But she sure found me “attractive” when I spent $20k on her for gifts, favors, etc. She put me in the friend-zone, except when I took my wallet out. FML
Today, the guy I like, who told me he “is trying to heal from his divorce,” just got a girlfriend. He calls her “the one that made me believe in love again.” I spent almost a year being a friend, supporting his every need, and hopelessly holding it down for him. Good to know I’m not good enough and never will be. FML
Today, I found out that I mean nothing to the man I have loved for over a year. He has been taking vacations with another woman, and is in fact, on a vacation with her right now. FML
Today, I once again listened as the girl I've loved for the past three years ranted about how she’s gonna be single forever and give up on dating. She asked, “Isn’t there one guy out there, just ONE GUY who will love me and cherish me?” When I brought up that I, once again, would love to do so, she rejected me; AGAIN. FML
Today, the man I love and who loves me ended our relationship. Why? Because I want to work 3 days a week, which wouldn’t conform to the traditional gender roles he envisions his future wife having. FML

you are not his type. get over it and move on. why are you wasting your life pursuing someone who clearly isn't into you in that way?

You have to stop giving him everything he wants.

This is something I fall into quite a lot, and that’s that I want men to desire me. It’s not because I “really” like them, sure I can be attracted to them and get on with them well, but ultimately I want to be the trophy. Remember to consider whether you actually like or them or just the idea of them, and whether you can actually picture a future together.

I know right, the post already kinda had a pick-me vibe, but that comment absolutely does

How is he a man child just for being obviously uninterested?

Let him go. He doesn't like you that way. Have you considered therapy? I think it'd benefit you.

He's not into you. Accept it and move on.

Just have an honest conversation with him. Did you ever actually tell him how you feel, or did you just drop vague hints and dance around the topic hoping he'd "get it?" If you have, then accept that he's not into you and move on. Sure, it hurts to not be wanted by the one you want, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

You know, when a guy does this to a woman it's called stalking and being creepy as ****... You should probably go talk to a professional about your obsession with a clearly UNINTERESTED guy and your inability to take "no" as an answer.

This is borderline stalking, if you ask me. Let him go and just move on.
