Today, at a bus stop my friend told me that he loved me. I, reacting on impulse, told him how long I've wanted to hear him say that, and kissed him. Then I realised the look on his face. Turns out he'd said 'I need new shoes' not 'I love you.' FML

Today, I was on the phone with my best guy friend, who I have loved for years. I was talking about school and all of a sudden he said, "I love you." I flipped out saying, "Oh my god, oh my god. I love you too!" He responded with, "What?" He was talking to his mom, who was walking out the door. FML

Today, I told the guy I've liked since we were children that I'm madly in love with him. He replied with, "Aw, I love you too, as a sister." I was speechless. He patted me on the back and said, "Better luck next time." FML

Love is love

Today, while at the supermarket, a complete stranger ran up to me, got down on his knee and confessed his love for me. He was obviously mentally unstable, so I gently declined. He started crying very loudly in front of everyone. I still don't have a clue who he was. FML

That's about the sweetest thing I've ever heard. I wish that was how I met my gf. He should have just run with it. That's so awesome.

Hey guys, well to be honest I spent about 20 minutes infront of the mirror saying 'i love you... I need shoes... I love you' and i still have absolutly no freaking clue how I made the mistake!!! He's a sweet guy and we laughed it off. Then he asked me out the other day BINGO :) i suppose my FML isnt so FML-ish after all. And im not desperate... I've liked him for ages!!!!!

Hey OP. I made art of this a while back, submitted it here, but it was (apparently) rejected by the FML team. I still have it on my DA, if you want to see it. ^_^ http://rathdrgnknight.deviantart.com/art/FML-156859746
