Today, I brought a friend who I have loved for years out to a nice restaurant for dinner. I ordered an expensive bottle of wine, and poured each of us a glass. As I was about to tell her I loved her, she raised her glass for a toast and said "A toast to friendship!" FML

Today, I watched my best friend get married to the guy I have been in love with since the eighth grade. I was the maid of honor, and had to give a toast to the couple. FML

Today, I took this gorgeous girl from work to eat at Olive Garden. I was trying to be romantic and had the waiter bring two glasses of wine. I guess she doesn't really drink wine, she covered her fettucini Alfredo in vomit. After dinner, she thanked me with a french kiss. FML

Today, I was at a club with a friend. A cute guy kept smiling and looking over at me. He left his seat and went to the bar and brought back two drinks. He waved me over and then said, "Can you tell your hot friend that I bought her a drink?" FML

Today, I invited my crush to come and spend Thanksgiving dinner with me and my family, she agreed but asked me if she could bring her friend. Turns out her "friend" was actually her boyfriend and they drank all the expensive wine I bought. FML

PSA: Don't be this guy

Today, I confessed my feelings to the love of my life. She laughed and said, “Nah, you’re like a brother to me, I can’t see you that way.” This after I drained my wallet for her birthday, brought her flowers and comforted her when her dog passed away, and fixed her car every time it broke down.

False hope

Today, I invited over my best friend, whom I've loved for over a year, since she had to tell me "something important". I got excited and thought she was going to tell me she loved me too. She ended up coming out to me, and wanted to know if I would meet her girlfriend. FML

Great date night

Today, a coworker invited me out for a date, totally out of the blue. I had no idea she liked me, but I did my best to impress. She ordered the most expensive steak on the menu, two bottles of wine, and eventually picked up and went home with our waiter. I got the bill. FML

Today, I told my best friend that there was a time that I loved her, then told her it was today, yesterday, last week, last month, last year, and listed several years before that, etc. Her response? "Wow, I can't believe we've known each other that long." FML

She probably knows you like her and doesn't like you back. So, instead of being a bitch and rejecting you, she kept you as a friend. It definitely could have been worse, buddy.

I love how every one bitches about rejection. What is someone supposed to do if they're not attracted to you? Say yes and pity date you? Get into a relationship so you dont get your feelings hurt and inevitably treat you like shit? Yeah it sucks, but I hate peoples' attitude about it.

you actually could have taken that chance to tell her that you want to be "more than friends" now you probably just said, "oh, right, to friendship". now if u tell her, she may get confused... u missed your chance, YDI.

I disagree. If she knows he feels that way, but is giving him hope without any real chance of a relationship, that's absolutely cruel. I feel for you, dude.

I said it could have been worse...and you disagree? That makes no sense.

How is she giving him hope? I think she went about this the most tactful way without hurting her friend's (the OP) feelings. Only a creep would take this as a sign of "giving" hope... And like they said, i think most people have a clue when it comes to knowing if someone likes them or not. Unless the OP is very unattractive then his crush would probably never even consider it to begin with.

Um. No. Being ignored is by far worse. I'm assuming the OP actually likes this girl because she's a good friend.. and not just because she's good looking. So how is losing a friend better than not? Take a hint, keep your pants on, and keep your friend.

I agree with #2 - sucks big time, but loving a friend isn't so bad. Hopefully it can develop into a kind of brother-sister love, like it sounds like she has for you.

Yeep. Unfortunately, the girl doesn't have feelings for op, but she may see qualities in him that makes him a valuable friend. Maybe in the future, feelings will blossom, you never know! If she is the one he whole-heartedly loves, I don't think op should give up, but try harder, and make her feel she is worth the fight!!!!:)

Honestly of she was a true friend she wouldn't take advantage of his nice gestures and just talk to him about his feelings towards her and try to build their relationship based on friendship not one sided love.
