Today, I discovered the man I'm in love with, the only person I've found attractive in the past 8 years, has a girlfriend, and has done for almost a year. I feel physically sick. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that the only two people I've had feelings for in years are both dating each other. FML
Today, I found out the guy I've been dating for 5 months is engaged to his girlfriend of 3 years. I found out as we were talking, waiting for him to come outside after work. FML
Today, I found out that the woman I could fall in love with is dating a friend of mine. I think I will end up alone, and die alone. FML
Today, I found that the only two people I've ever been in love with fell in love with one another. FML
Today, I found out that I mean nothing to the man I have loved for over a year. He has been taking vacations with another woman, and is in fact, on a vacation with her right now. FML
Today, I found out I’m pregnant with the man I’ve been in love with for almost a year. When I told him, he got down on one knee, cuddled my abdomen and said, "Get out." FML
Today, I realized that I might be falling for a girl. She's fucking beautiful. She can't love me, I'm not good enough for her, and she's in love with someone else. Besides, I have a girlfriend but it never seems like we're close and I don't even know if I had a crush on her before, but I still love her as a friend and can't break her heart. FML
Today, I found out that the person I love, who is also a friend, is now in a relationship with my sister. FML
Today, the guy I have been in love with for years decided to tell me all about his women problems and how he can't find someone. After telling him I loved him he responds, "do you know if anyone else does?" FML
Today, I found out the guy I had a huge crush on back in college, and still think of every day, actually did like me back. Except I’ve been married for nearly 8 years to someone else. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

If you think you love someone you don’t even know well enough to know they are already seeing someone for a year - You don’t know that person. If you think you love someone you don’t know that’s just infatuation, not love. There is more than one person in this world that we can love and who will love us in return. But you won’t find that person until you put behind you the relationships that will not work and cannot be. Give yourself a little time to privately grieve as you heal and then move on to meet and get to know other people. And for your own sake, don’t talk to those new people about “the one that got away” there is nothing more off-putting than listening to someone who’s obsessing about someone else when they are with you.

Was this a Rear Window sort of relationship or something? How can you 'be in love' with someone for 8 years and not know he had a girlfriend for a year?

Love hurts, and it isn’t fair. Best thing to do is carry on and who knows, maybe things can be different later on. I do wonder though, like not a single attractive person in 8 years?? Where do you live again?

Love yourself and know your self worth. There will be one out there for you.

Don't worry. I'm sure you won't obsess over "the one that got away" for further years or even decades. You won't be mentally comparing every man you date in the future to your idealized image of this one, googling his name, stalking his social media, wondering what might have been. You're no doubt far too rational to engage in that sort of self-destructive thinking. Have fun!
