Today, through a mutual friend, I met the girl of my dreams. After flirting and exchanging numbers with her, my friend confessed that she's liked me since the day we met. Now the girl of my dreams doesn't want to pursue a relationship with me out of respect for our friend. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the girl of my dreams, the one person I've met in my life that I could see myself spending the rest of it with, told me she loves me. She then specifically added "...but not in that way, so we could never be together." FML
Today, after I finally got up the courage to talk to the girl I'd been crushing on for years, we've got super close over a few weeks. Her best friend, who I'm kinda friends with, texted me, confessing that she likes me. Now the first girl won't talk to me for the sake of her best friend, who I'm not interested in. FML
Today, I managed to convince the girl of my dreams to stop being so shy, and put herself out there to get her crush to make a move. It worked. And yet as it turns out, I'm not her crush after all. FML
Today, after months of dinners, coffees, drinks, and a few nights together, the girl of my dreams told me about this awesome guy she met yesterday. FML
Today, I found out that one of my best friends likes the girl that I like. What's funny is that my best friend is also a girl, and has a better chance with her than I do. FML
Today, I got rejected by a girl I was talking to. We had mutual feelings, and I waited a long time for her to be single again. We talked, made out, and now she has gotten into another relationship, acting like she doesn't like me anymore… but still wants to be friends? FML
Today, I finally built up the courage to confess my love to the girl of my dreams. She turned me down. When I asked her about all the recent receptive behavior toward me, she replied, "I thought it'd be funny." FML
Today, a really cute girl from my class invited me out for a few drinks. I’ve had a crush on her all year and thought this was my chance. We went out but it turns out she has a boyfriend of 5 and a half years she plans to marry. I saw her as a potential girlfriend and I guess she saw me as something else. FML
Today, at 1am, the girl of my dreams that I've been trying for over three years to date, finally asked me out via SMS. Too bad I was asleep at the time. She now thinks I've rejected her, and will no longer speak to me. FML
Today, I finally got the girl of my dreams' phone number. After texting her "Hey, is this Stephanie?" I got response saying "Sorry bro, I know how you feel, she did the same thing to me." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Honestly, if I were the friend, I wouldn't let myself get in the way of two people wanting to be together.

In a perfect world, you get the perfect girl and the perfect friend. In this world however, it seems you get neither. Life sucks sometimes.

polygamy

Technically, polyamory is what you want there.

That really sucks. If your friend is really a true friend she will put her feelings aside and encourage the two of you to get to know eachother. Who knows what could come of it!

I've been in a similar situation before. In high school I met a guy my first week there and we became really good friends. I introduced him to my friend (I offer refer to her as my sister) of 5 years at the time. They became good friends too. The three of us used to hang out all the time and had fun. Two years later we all went to a dance together. I told him that I was starting to have feelings for him, and he in return told me that he was considering asking out my friend (sister). This conversation happened with all three of us sitting at the same table. Of course it hurt at the time. The situation was made worse when she accepted his request. She had never so much as hinted to me that she might like him, so I was hurt for a while. I got over it soon enough though. I realized that my feeling for him were not that strong after all. Their relationship only lasted 6 months though. It was a brutal (very public) breakup (he broke up with her). I can understand now why their relation didn't last, and why I never had a chance in the first place, but that's neither here nor there. Many years later and she is still considered my sister, and him my friend.

Why not give dating your friend a try?

@66: Because he's not interested?

All I can say is tread carefully, remember reading a story where some chick lied to a guy so he wouldn't get a girl he deserved. It was an fml to be exact, she said she had feelings for him, she didn't but "didn't want to risk losing him" and it's total bs, the saying if I can't have you no one will strikes again

Have the strong will. Go get her. And she likes you.

How can you say she's your dream girl if you've only known her for one day?

That's such horseshit. Tell the friend that you're not interested and that you're interested in the girl of your dreams. Y'all are all adults. Not in high school.
