Today, my best friend, the man who I've been in love with for nine years, finally told me he loves me and wants to spend the rest of his life with me. Unfortunately, it was while he was using me to practice proposing to his girlfriend. FML

Today, after three years of dating, my boyfriend finally proposed. To my best friend. FML
Today, I finally had the guts to tell my best friend that I like him more than just as a friend. I was about to tell him when he excitedly told me that he met the love of his life yesterday. FML
Today, my best friend got engaged to the guy she's been seeing for five years. He also happens to be the man I've been in love with for eight. As she was giving me the details, she nonchalantly gave me her reason for accepting the proposal: "Why the hell not, there's always divorce." FML
Today, I told my best friend of 10 years that somewhere along the way I fell in love with him and I think we should be together. His response? "I appreciate the sentiment." FML
Today, a guy that I've been friends with for almost 20 years, and for whom I have never shown even the slightest bit of romantic interest in, confessed his love for me. In front of everyone we know, at mine and my fiancé's engagement party. FML
Today, my best friend whom I have been in love with for years, called me, proposed, and confessed his love for me. He was at a noisy bar so I asked him to call me back later and we'd discuss it. He called back later, hungover, with no recollection of our conversation whatsoever. FML
Today, I get to see my best friend and love of my life of two years marry the man she loves. Back then, I lied and told her I was gay to avoid her finding out my feelings for her. FML
Today, I confessed to my boyfriend that I was in love with his best friend. He confessed that he was too. FML
Today, my best friend told me she's been in love with me for over 4 years. I'm getting married to the man of my dreams in a month and she's supposed to be my bridesmaid. "Awkward" doesn't even begin to describe our friendship right now. FML
Today, I told my best friend I was breaking up with my girlfriend of 3 years. He thought it would be funny to tell her I was going to propose to her that night. She showed up telling me how much she loves me and that when we get married how great it will be. FML

you should tell him how you feel before he marries her...or you'll regret it.

I don't see how this is an fml. If you had told him you love him, or were planning on telling him and he said he was going to propose to his girlfriend, then I could see it. Since you never said anything though, it's not really an fml.

YDI for pretending your friend was Clay Aiken.

Perhaps the OP realized that she had feelings for this friend after he was with this girl that he is now preparing to propose to. If so, maybe she didn't want to risk him leaving his girlfriend if she did tell him how she felt, knowing that if she (the OP) and her friend are meant to be together it would work out. Additionally, if this guy is ready to propose to his girlfriend, then it is possible that he and the OP were never meant to be together, in which case they can continue being friends without the awkwardness of unrequited love.

YDI for not telling him... If you don't want bad something enough to risk losing it, you don't want it bad enough!

So many people are so harsh in their comments. Lighten up! Damn! I know that's gotta suck sweetie. FYL. But you can either tell him how you feel and hope he stops the engagement or you can move on. :)

that's just stupid. move one. and why the heck did you listen to his recital of proposal to his gf?? people really like to be masochists. Either tell him of you feelings, or not be friends with him, it is impossible to be friends. you'll always want more and will hope more, and it would me unsatisfying relationship..

Sorry, but I don't think I could ever love someone for 9 years unless it was mutual. That takes commitment! Bravo, OP! 9 years wasted :(

geez you should've sucked his dick to get his attention. if you really want him, let him know that he is yours. instead of spending 9 years worrying and waiting and wishing, you should've taken some aggressive course of action. if that hadn't worked, then you could've moved on and forgotten him. ydi for being a pussy. and not the good kind

It's not love, it's infatuation. And I'm getting sick of reading all the "today the man/woman I love got married to my best friend/someone else" FMLs. Grow a pair and speak the f up.
