Today, I have to pretend like I don’t have feelings for a friend I've know for over 10 years. I have to pretend that my heart isn’t breaking into a million pieces thinking about him with someone else. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I had to sit through the wedding of my best friend and the love of my life, and pretend to be happy for them. FML
Today, I realized I have feelings for a really good friend of mine. Now I have to keep my distance because he’s married, and I refuse to be a homewrecker. FML
Today, I'm in love with my friend, and he's in love with me. The problem? We're both married to other people. We're not acting on it and we're going to do the right thing, which is letting it go, but my heart is broken in a million pieces right now. FML
Today, I realized I'm so lonely I would rather pretend I don't know I'm being cheated on than leave. We've been together a year and he's my virtual boyfriend. FML
Today, I realized I've fallen for my best friend. Private conversations suggest she feels the same, but around others she dismisses love as "stupid". I don't want things to become awkward, but I feel like I should walk away instead of burying my feelings to maintain the friendship. FML
Today, my friend told me to move on from having feelings for her, despite me accepting that we were only friends several months ago. FML
Today, I had to help my best friend plan his upcoming date with the girl he doesn't know I'm secretly in love with. FML
Today, I found out that my closest friend of many years had been putting on a charade of being my friend, and has decided that they can't be bothered with the effort of me existing any more. FML
Today, I've had a crush on my friend for a long time, and everyone around us had convinced me that he had feelings too, so I finally confessed. I got sister/friend-zoned. I'm trying not to cry myself to sleep. FML
Today, the woman I am absolutely in love with will only be my friend. I wish I could get her to understand how much it hurts to see her with boyfriends, and only be friends. I'm starting to feel like I can't maintain this friendship because it hurts so much. I don't know what to do. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Maybe you're also pretending you have a shred of courage to share your feelings and see if they are mutual? Even more pathetic is that you're pretending you're in his league. If you've known him for 10 years and you've never left the Friend Zone? What do you really think?

If you haven't managed to squash these feelings in ten years and still yearn for this man, you're not being a friend.

I have made it out of the friend zone. It’s a complicated situation. But you don’t have to resort to name calling to stroke your ego.

you need to tell him or cut them lose. this is just toxic. your purposely making yourself miserable hopefully he is single. if he is nit then cut ties and tell him why

It’s a complicated situation. There’s feelings on both ends.
