Today, after a year and a half, I finally cut things off with my ex completely because I was starting to have feelings for someone else. Right after I cut my ex off, the other girl that I liked cut things off with me, and threw my ass in the friendzone. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my best friend became my ex-best friend. I have finally gotten over the guy she stole from me a year ago and have developed a crush on another guy. My best friend called me today to tell me that she broke up with the first guy and is now going out with my current crush. FML
Today, my ex-girlfriend broke up with me once again after getting back together for two weeks. Just two weeks earlier, I was seeing a girl. I'd ended things with her to mend things with my ex. I hit the girl up on Facebook to ask her out. She now has a boyfriend. FML
Today, it's been a year since the girl I'm madly in love with completely cut off all communication with me. She called me crying a year ago, saying she couldn't do the long-distance, unaware I was planning on moving closer to her. Not once has she reached out, and has a girlfriend now. I think about her every night. FML
Today, I broke up with my ex not too long ago, then I fell for another guy and he liked me too, but now a few weeks later we grew distant because of the same reason my ex broke up with me for, how I'm too clingy and affectionate, etc. FML
Today, I just had to break up with my girlfriend of 2 years, who I've been friends with for the past 12 years. She chased me in high school and we dated before for almost 2 years, but now I finally see what I should have: She's still in love her ex, who abandoned her 5 years ago. I've been living in another man's shadow. FML
Today, the girl that I had a crush on for over a year, from whom I recently moved on from, told me that she likes me. I’m dating a new girl. FML
Today, the woman I thought I had friend-zoned dumped me because she has "met someone new." I really like her as a friend but felt zero attraction, so after one date I went out of my way not to give off the wrong signals when talking or meeting. It turns out she thought I was on my way out of the "relationship" anyway. FML
Today, I got broken up with yet again by my on-and-off ex-girlfriend. I had ended things with an amazing girl I was seeing just to go back to my ex. She'd made it clear that if things went wrong with my ex, I wasn't allowed to pursue her again. I tried to hit her up again anyway, but she told me to “take a short walk off a pier.” FML
Today, my supposed "best friend" started going out with the girl I'd just split up with, immediately after she said she wanted to see other people. FML
Today, a guy I had developed feelings for broke things off with me, giving me a version of the “it’s not you, it’s me” line. This was the first person I had liked/wanted to date in almost 8 years. I think I’m destined to be alone. FML

OP didn't cheat, he did what you're suppose to do. If you are falling for someone else, you break it off with who you're currently with before ACTING upon that interest. He probably became good friends with the other person and realized he felt more. So to make it so he wouldn't cheat, he broke it off with his current GF. He did everything absolutely correctly, although lost both in the end. People need to realize, the new dating feeling butterflies disappears after a while, and if that's what you search for instead of realizing its normal to not have them forever, you get yourself in a loop of thinking you're missing something when you're really not. There's so many stages of a relationship! Being with my husband for 14 years, married for almost 11 of them, butterflies stopped after a year or two. Now we're just best of friends, in love and enjoy our mutual company! Things happen when they're meant to happen. Enjoy it!!

She liked being the side piece.

So in other words, you were basically cheating. You 110% deserved that one

Why cheating? You can develop feelings for someone that you're not together with, you know?

If she knew you were still hung up on your ex for so long, that could’ve been the reason why she friend zoned you. On the bright side, now you have a clean slate to start with

Why the title "Nice guy DESTROYED by FACTS and LOGIC"? He's not a "Nice Guy" and there's no logic to what happened, just an unfortunate set of circumstances.
