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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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?

To be fair, it's not really her fault. It may not have been the smartest way to react, but she couldn't have known that a platonic friend was going to ask her a question like that. Though it's more of a FHL than yours, OP. Poor guy.

Actually I'd say it is a YDI to that guy - He shouldn't have gotten so excited about her answer when she didn't even know what the question was - and especially when her answer was done jokingly.

i don't get what happened. Was there a wedding ring in it? Why would he want to marry you if you're just a friend?

Tell me about it.. he was crying when he thought she said yes, imagine how he'll take the rejection! Poor guy, and to a lesser degree poor girl that has just probably lost a good friend.

can't be that good of a friend if she thought he was a platonic friend and he thought she was interested romantically. More of a creepy friend

Sometimes girls give off the impression that they're interested.

That kind of sucks, and looking back it probably wasnt the smartes to give an answer before hearing the question but I can see how at the time you wouldnt have seen it coming.

Do you not have a boyfriend, or are you embarassed by him that you call him a friend?
