Today, a very good friend of mine said he had a question to ask me. Jokingly, I threw my arms around his neck and said, "Oh yes, yes, a thousand times yes!" When I sat back down, I saw tears in his eyes, and he said, "You've made me the happiest man alive" as he pulled a small box out of his coat. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my best friend, the man who I've been in love with for nine years, finally told me he loves me and wants to spend the rest of his life with me. Unfortunately, it was while he was using me to practice proposing to his girlfriend. FML
Today, my boyfriend got on one knee and started talking about how we met. Knowing what was coming, I started tearing up, absolutely sure he was going to propose. Just as I was about to say yes, he quickly stood up and yelled "HAH, JUST KIDDING". FML
Today, I finally had a man say, "I love you" to me in a sincere tone. It was a customer, who was high, over the phone. I said it back. FML
Today, I finally had the guts to tell my best friend that I like him more than just as a friend. I was about to tell him when he excitedly told me that he met the love of his life yesterday. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he loved me. I asked why, and he said, "Because sometimes you look good, and you buy me stuff." FML
Today, after 8 years, I confessed one of my best friends I've been in love with him since we were kiddies. His answer was "Don't worry, I won't stop talking to you." FML
Today, I confessed my feelings to the love of my life. She laughed and said, “Nah, you’re like a brother to me, I can’t see you that way.” This after I drained my wallet for her birthday, brought her flowers and comforted her when her dog passed away, and fixed her car every time it broke down. FML
Today, I said to my significant other, "I think I'm a pretty good catch." She started laughing so heavily that tears came out of her eyes. FML
Today, a guy that I've been friends with for almost 20 years, and for whom I have never shown even the slightest bit of romantic interest in, confessed his love for me. In front of everyone we know, at mine and my fiancé's engagement party. FML
Today, I gave a girl I like a $200 diamond necklace to express how much she means to me. She gave me a hug and told me she didn't want to lose me as a friend. Nor did she want to lose her new necklace. Today, I got a $200 hug. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Okay, so just because #254 offhandedly mentioned sex at one point in her comment, she's an auto-****? Shit, wait, phone call... yeah, it's the 1800's. They miss you and want you home. :(

Lol, you’re funny. 2 - #254 NEVER said anything about having sex herself. How was she bragging? 3 – “I mean I get sex, but I don't brag about it like daddies little *****” … again, #254 didn’t mention having sex herself a single time, while you spent a whole paragraph describing your sex life. Good one.

I think it's actually the first time I feel uncomfortable reading an FML. Congratulations OP. And I concur with some of the comments above me. Genuinely platonic heterosexual male friends are a virtually non-existent breed. Please remember this next time, and use caution. As deluded and childish as your friend's behavior was, YDI.

It's a little hard to believe that he would propose when they weren't dating but anything's possible. I'm thinking maybe they had dated in the past sometime and he didn't think their relationship was that platonic. Or maybe they had one of those if we're not married by a certain age we'll get married promises. I'd pay money for the follow up to this one.

FYL. You DEFINITELY did not deserve this. Just because someone kids around doesn't mean that they're "toying" with someone. And you didn't have any bad intentions; you were just super unlucky. I hope he understands. D:

I suggest this course of action: if you don't have a boyfriend, which from how this fml reads, search your feelings: is he a nice guy, does he have ok or better looks, is he trustworthy, honest, dependable? If so, then decline marriage for the time being, but ask him out on a few dates, and see how it goes from there. If none of those attributes apply, then tell him flat out that it wouldn't work. Poor guy though.

Poor guy, but I think that it IS kinda funny and FYL for probably trying to explain to him that it was all just a joke and misunderstanding! poor guy and poor you :( But thanks for making me laugh (:
