Today, I found out yet another of my guy friends liked me. I posted that I just wanted a guy friend that had absolutely no romantic feelings for me. My crush volunteered. FML

Love is hell

Today, as I recently starting having a huge crush on this one guy, my friend told me she told him about the crush, and that he reacted positively. I made a move, only to find out he has a partner. I've tried distancing myself to get over him but he befriended all my friends and is now in our group chat, and the crush has only intensified. FML

Today, I was minding my own business when the guy I have a crush on sat down next to me at work, explained that he heard that I had a crush on him and that he was flattered, but that we should "be friends" because I'm a "nice girl". I was rejected by someone I didn't even pursue. FML

Today, one of my guy friends, who I’m not interested in romantically, asked me out on a date. This is the third time a "friend" has asked me out on a date. FML

Today, I had lunch with an old friend I've had a crush on for years. We're both single, so I figured it to be kind of like a date. Until he started talking about how he told his brother last night that we would never be a thing. FML

Today, my crush confessed their love for me, and I happily told them that I felt the same way. They looked uncomfortable, so I asked why. Apparently they'd been paid to prank me. FML

Today, a "friend" of mine told everyone that I had a crush on a girl I used to be really good friends with 2 years ago. I never liked her that way, and had said that only to hide the fact that I'm gay and don't feel safe with boys. Her current boyfriend is seriously annoyed with me. FML

Today, I found out the reason my crush has been talking so openly to me. Not because she likes me back, but because she thinks I'm gay. FML

Heartless to post that, those friend who have feelings for you can read it aswell. You got what you deserve.

No sympathy from me, OP. There was no reason for you to post that on Facebook, were you just trying to inflate your ego or something? Your poor friend doesn't need to see that. If you didn't want to date him, you could have just politely declined if he asked you out. You can't get mad that your crush publicly stated that he didn't fancy you, because that's exactly what you did to your friend.

Amber why would you post this on FML?!?! Personal!

While I personally think friendzones are blown out of proportion, blasting it on facebook is a douche move. It's totally your call not to pursue a relationship with someone, but don't turn around and further degrade their intentions.

Just because a guy/girl likes you doesn't mean that you have to date her or him. Think about it: your dating someone when you have NO FEELINGS for them. Is that any better? You don't "put" someone in the "Friend Zone" like an item, it just happens. Deal with it.

Are you for real? Should she have forced herself to have feelings for them or something?

That's not what she said. She publicly shamed them over social media, then her crush put her down. It's karma.

Sounds like a cry for attention to me.

There are more people calling her names for having the audacity to not like those other guys back and some weird sense of karma than there are people pointing out how shitty posting that publicly was. ...gross. Friend zone is imaginary. You're not entitled to shit just because you like someone. They don't like you back? Get over it, move on. Either be a friend or leave them be. That's not what's wrong in this OP, it's the possibility that her status was completely public that is wrong.

YDI for 1. Not realizing just because he likes you doesn't mean you can't still be friends, you were fine before you knew and he liked you anyway. 2. For posting all your problems on Facebook.
