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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was introduced to the girl my current boyfriend went out with while dating me. FML
Today, I finally got the chance to meet this wonderful guy I met on a dating site. She was very excited to see me, too. FML
Today, the girl I had a crush on for the past few months called me and wanted to tell me something. Excited, I agreed and we went out to dinner. She wanted to tell me she had been secretly seeing 'someone' for the past six months. FML
Today, after I’ve been head-over heels crushing on a girl for years, she finally told me she felt the same. A month after I'd moved to a different country forever. FML
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, 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
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, I went on a date with the girl of my dreams. Her boyfriend, who she said she'd broken up with, was at the same restaurant with another girl. She screamed at him for ten minutes, then they started making out, and left together. The girl he was with looked at me and said "Eww", then went to hit on another guy. FML
Today, the girl I’ve been crushing over for so long told me that I’m a great guy and a catch, but then went on to tell me all about the other guy she’s been sleeping with. FML.
Today, I finally went on a date with the girl I'm in love with. After dinner we went to the bar for drinks and things were going great. Right up until she went home with another guy. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Thats not a film going on..

Cuz that wouldn't be awkward

I feel #1 is right, one should express to impress their love
headofmedusa 15
I agree. This advice is gold.

Well at least we now know that the way to a woman's heart isn't her stomach

...it's being someone completely different...

This is so true, sad but true :(
YawMoney 14
Sorry. But why didn't you tell her earlier?
GirlGamer12345 22
I don't think OP realized they had to tell her she was their girlfriend. It had been months of dating...
juturnaamo 29
Dinners, coffees, and drinks don't necessarily mean dating. She might have thought they were just besties.
niallo 23
If he's always paying, sounds like a date.
temmera 16
OP never said he paid for every dinner, coffee and drink. He just said after months of dinners, coffee and drinks.

I don't think the girl needed telling... the behaviour of the opposite sex is not a mystery requiring intricate solving! If a guy has 'spent nights with you' along with said dates etc, does not blatantly exhibit behaviour that would make you think you are not exclusive... you have to be blind to take that as friendship only, unless mutually agreed otherwise. I take this as a very conscious decision on her part. Lastly if OP truly did not intend on being exclusive with her, this situation would not prompt him to post a FML about it.
sjbartholome 14
We all know what the post said. #35 never said that OP did pay. Keyword is IF. Learn to pay more attention.
dragonrider1959 18
Also nights spent with her

#31: That's possible, but if so then she's either manipulative or an idiot.

Let's have a moment of silence for our brother lost to the friend zone

She probably thought you were just being a good friend. You should have told her how you felt OP. I'm sorry you lost her though.

What about the nights together part?
elusiveshame 22
When did it become required to be exclusive/committed to each other to spend the night together (sexual or not)? If the OP never expressed his feelings, it's his fault.
1two3four5six 23
Getting meals together and having sex sounds likes relationship to me. Yeah, maybe she didn't think it was exclusive, but I don't think OP was in the wrong for assuming that it was.
Brandi_Faith 34
I think this depends on if "nights together" means sex or just hanging out and watching movies.

Sure, it's disappointing when you don't get the person you want. Maybe you should have been honest about your feelings/intentions sooner. But just because you spent your time and possibly money on her, doesn't guarantee that she'll want to end up with you/won't change her mind as she gets to know you/won't meet the guy of her dreams, who turns out not to be you. Just be glad you weren't in a relationship with her, married, with kids, suffering from recent trauma, when she did.
violetsweety 26
I agree with you but it seems like she was leading OP on. It does say 'spent a few nights together'. I'm assuming they are sleeping together?
temmera 16
23: I agree with you that it does sound like she was leading him on if 'spent a few nights together' meant they've been sleeping with each other, but maybe she thought they were friends with benefits. One of my guy friends and a girl friend of his are friends with benefits (they also go out to dinner, drinks and movies with each other), but only until one of them meet someone else.
juturnaamo 29
Or they were cuddle buddies.

A moment of silence for our man in the friendzone.
Queenie2014 11
Shut up with that bullshit. It's getting old
GirlGamer12345 22
^^ Wow you just shut him down so hard my god.
Sandsh8rk 36
Ok #15, as you wish. :)
Taylor22294 24
To be honest men put themselves in the "friend zone" by the way they act around there crush. Don't ever hold your feelings back. Basically grow a pair
DarkRealmGolem 9
or... you grow a pair and they shut you down lol
Algorithm 24
Then get "shut down" and find a different girl, 65. There's no magic combination to make people always say yes when you ask them out. She's allowed to not want to date you.

Girl: You just got 10 points on your nice guy card! Time for me to give you the sex you so rightly deserve! Guy: Hot diggity!
Grenith 21
You better pull a move before she does. Good luck OP.
DarkestReaper 2
That's when you come in and tell her about the girl of your dreams and see if she realizes.
Aquila_Umbrae 26
It can't hurt to tell her how you feel.
little_star78 13
It could if she shoots him down
sjbartholome 14
What's the difference between getting shot down directly or watching someone else sweep her off her feet. Either way, OP loses the girl so why not tell her how he feels.
