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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, a guy who I was low-key crushing on asked me out. I excitedly told my best friend, as I do when I have big news. She informed me that the same guy asked her out 15 minutes ago. He'd originally been into her and only came to me because she rejected him. FML
Today, I found out that yet another of my guy friends liked me. I then posted on social media that I just wanted a guy friend that had absolutely no romantic feelings for me. My crush volunteered. FML
Today, I went on a date with a guy that I really like. At the last minute he informed me a friend would be tagging along. To keep his friend from being a third-wheel, I kept up a conversation, and managed to piss my date off. He thought I would be a better match for his friend. FML
Today, I found out why the guy I like insisted on inviting a friend along on our outings. Apparently, he was sick of me flirting/making moves, so he kept bringing her along in hopes I'd get the hint. Although this time, not only was I third-wheeling, but I watched as they hooked up in the backseat of his car. FML
Today, a guy I've liked for a while asked if he could talk to me during break. He'd never done that before, so I was excited and said yes. As soon as we both sat down, he asked if I'd help him get a date with my best friend. FML
Today, I finally went on a date with a guy who’s been begging to take me out for weeks. I’m terrified of dating but, after consulting with my friends, I decided to give it a shot as he seemed nice. He told me during the date that he has a girlfriend, but he just fantasizes about hooking up with me. FML
Today, the guy I'm in love with invited me out to a gig with him and his friends, only to then try to set me up with his friend. FML
Today, a friend told me he thought I was hot and we ended up having lunch together. I like him and we’ve already arranged a second date, but when I mentioned this to someone else, she got pretty upset. Turns out she liked me and had been dropping hints for a while. No clue what’ll happen to my friendship with her… FML
Today, I got friendzoned by three different women. Each girl suggested I should ask out one of the other two women who also friendzoned me. FML
Today, I was texting the guy I like. I asked him why our friend didn't want to come to the movies with us. He replied, "She didn't want to be the third wheel, but it's not like I'm going to put the moves on you. I'm out of your league, and you're socially awkward anyway." That's just what I wanted. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

unfortunately you gotta get used to it. it's real hard to find a straight guy friend that legit wants to be friends. welcome to the fuckzone

It depends on where you are in life. In grade school and Jr High there are only "friends". By the time you graduate High School most people are looking for a romantic or sexual partner and not so much in more "friends"... I understand that we need friends, male and female, but the primary drive during adulthood toward the sex you are attracted to is usually romance and sex based. It can be frustrating to be attracted to a specific person and to have them tell you that they want to be friends but nothing more... True enough sometimes friendship blossoms into something more - But rarely does that happen to a person who got "friend zoned" right up front when they were originally trying for something more.

sometimes people will be attracted to those they vibe with and be courageous enough to ask if the one they vibe with feels the same. if the answer is no and they can be chill and vibe after, then all is good. it's when people can't handle the no that things get weird.

If you don't want to go out with a guy just tell him straight up that you don't want to go out with him. That's the nicest thing to do. I know it's hard but it's always ended better for me and the girl when the girls honest with me. If you're not honest the guy's going to give you the benefit of the doubt and feel strung along and then there's hurt feelings etc etc etc. That being said you should know that guys only want to be friends with girls who they think are cute. If a guy wants to be your friend he probably thinks you're cute. Don't be surprised when they ask you out eventually. All of this goes by the wayside if you're ugly. In that case you'll only be able to find a guy friends and no boyfriends.
