Love: Today, I asked out this girl at work who I've had a crush on...

Today, I asked out this girl at work who I've had a crush on for a while. She looked oddly familiar, aside from the fact that we worked together. It was almost like we'd met outside of work. Two hours and one Snapchat story later, I realized I'd asked out my best friend's girlfriend. FML

Today, the girl I like asked me to take over her shift at the place we both work at. Being nice, I readily took over. Later, I found out she went on a date with my best friend. He knows I like her. FML

Today, I wanted to ask out this cute girl I used to work with. Before I could, she said she likes my only friend there, and asked if could I set them up. Trying to be nice guy and good friend, I did. Then she made her complete lack of interest in me obvious. But hey, at least the gay guy she hung out with thought I was cute. FML

Today, I realized the extent of my crush on one of my employees. I found myself cropping our picture out of the staff photo to see what we would look like as a couple. FML

Today, I finally worked up enough courage to ask out the guy I've had a crush on for months. I texted him, and he thought I was Maddy from work, not Maddie his neighbor. Now he and the Maddy from his work are dating. FML

Today, after what I thought was several weeks of flirting with a coworker, I asked her out on a date. She asked if it could be a double date, and I said yes. I brought a friend, she brought her husband. FML

Today, I asked my crush out, after a year of liking her. What did she do? She laughed, took a screenshot of it, and sent it to her friend. FML

Today, I finally got enough courage to ask out this girl that I've liked for a year. While we were out at lunch, she ran into her ex that she had just broken up with. They then had a long conversation about their relationship, and ended up getting back together. She was my ride home. FML

Today, I finally got the courage to ask my best friend to go on a date with me. She assumed I meant a double date and squealed, "Who's the lucky guy?!" She thought I was her gay best friend for the past year. FML

Today, it was my best friend's wedding. The night ended with her in tears outside her hotel suite, where she confessed that she has a serious crush on me. I have a serious crush on her too. We're both straight women. I'm really confused. FML

Even if she said yes, it might be just cause she recognised OP and figured there was nothing wrong with having lunch with a work colleague who is also her boyfriend's best friend.

You shouldn't assume the best friend wouldn't be okay with her going with others!

That sucks OP. But I hope you clarified to your best friend that it was completely unintentional. Don't let it remain a secret or else it'll just cause boundaries between you and your friend. Although.. It's weird that you forgot how your best friend's girl looked like... But it happens I guess. Good luck!

For some reason some people distance their SO's from their friends. Weird, since I feel it'd be good to know their friends... Unless they're complete a*holes of course.

It's believable that they wouldn't be close friends, and I guess it's possible that he wouldn't recognize her by face, especially if they don't use Facebook. As #3 said, some people don't include their SOs in the social circle. But I'm having a hard time that they best friend never mentioned to either of them that they work at the same place. The best friend had to know that they were coworkers, and it's very odd that he wouldn't have mentioned it.
