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

I'm the OP. To all the people who assume he doesn't know: He does. And so does his girlfriend. They've been together since high school, before I met him. She and I know and like each other. I'm not just a coward. And I haven't just been pining away after him all this time. I've had boyfriends, it's just never been right. I don't think I'm selfless for being his friend. I think his girlfriend's pretty selfless for letting me be his friend. I think I've accepted the fact that we'll never be together and am willing to put up with some sadness to keep him in my life in the only way he can be. It still sucks though, and knowing they're getting married sort of drives it home. To the people who assume I'm fat and ugly: I actually weigh about 100 pounds, and his girlfriend is overweight. She's awesome though so it doesn't really matter, and I'm sure he'll be happier with her than you'll ever be with anyone. To CrimsonImpact and everyone else who's nice: thanks for being nice :)

Break it off now. If I had a dime for every woman who didn't have a problem with her boyfriend's ex or female friend until the ring went on the finger I'd be a millionaire. Same goes for guys and their girlfriend's ex/male friend. You've probably blown off a lot of nice guys because they didn't measure up to your forbidden fruit. It's not worth it. MOVE ON!

I say if you haven't told them anything after the first year, then you definitely need to start living your life with another person in mind. BTW, if anyone is interested in travel, check out my blog! http://gefangene.webs.com/

I love it when the OP comments. It really clears things up! You tell em'. People always make too many assumptions, especially when they're anonymous and can be *ssholes.

#19+64: **** you guys. That is so incredibly mean to say. Just because somebody isnt as good looking as you or a bit over weight, DOES NOT MEAN that they are not human, and they dont deserve to be treated with Respect. It hurts them when your mean to them, lay off a bit. And No, IM not fat. I might not be the hottest girl around, but Im not ugly. So dont it. But have some respect, they are JUST like you. Im not saying you have to date a over weight chick or ugly one, but dont be rude to them. Just leave them alone, if they say something to you, answer. END OF IT. Sheesh. And to Op: Im not sure if this is a FML, I have lot worse of a life, but you dont deserve it. Sorry, hope you find somebody better :)
