Today, at a bus stop my friend told me that he loved me. I, reacting on impulse, told him how long I've wanted to hear him say that, and kissed him. Then I realised the look on his face. Turns out he'd said 'I need new shoes' not 'I love you.' FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was on the phone with my best guy friend, who I have loved for years. I was talking about school and all of a sudden he said, "I love you." I flipped out saying, "Oh my god, oh my god. I love you too!" He responded with, "What?" He was talking to his mom, who was walking out the door. FML
Today, I told my best friend of 10 years that somewhere along the way I fell in love with him and I think we should be together. His response? "I appreciate the sentiment." FML

Today, I told the guy I've liked since we were children that I'm madly in love with him. He replied with, "Aw, I love you too, as a sister." I was speechless. He patted me on the back and said, "Better luck next time." FML
Today, my boyfriend of over a year finally told me he loved me. This revelation was quickly followed by "at least, I think this is how people feel when they say that." FML
Today, while at the supermarket, a complete stranger ran up to me, got down on his knee and confessed his love for me. He was obviously mentally unstable, so I gently declined. He started crying very loudly in front of everyone. I still don't have a clue who he was. FML
Today, I was texting my boyfriend about yesterday, where he told me how much he loved me, and he wishes we lived closer. I asked him if he really meant it. Turns out he was drunk, and had no idea what he was talking about. FML
Today, I told my crush of two years that I love him. He responded with an, "Aww, I'm sorry." and a pity hug. FML

It's understandable! When someone really wants to hear something.. Their head will look for ANYTHING being said and twist it

if you don't actually say it out loud, like if you mouth it, they look the same. Try it. It works the same with "elephant shoes" and then try "vacuum" on others and see how they react.

One syllable too many. Although vacuum works.

Elephant shoes actually looks best. You cant see the other syllable when you mouth it. Vacuum doesn't look like "I love you" try again. lol.

You are right men dont say "its a girl..." They say, "hey shes cute...Id like to **** her" not "I wonder what her point of view is on fabrics on dinner dresses?". Unless they are gay, and that clearly is understandable.

You seem pretty clueless, too... I have many guy friends, and while two have them have let on that they might like me (not in the "Oh I want to **** her" way), the most of them are just friends. My best friend and neighbour is a guy, and we have no interest in each other past friendship.

Well if they did say that would you sleep with them... No! So they are trying to be a sly like. lol

want to know how you can mix up "I love you" and "I need new shoes"? look in a mirrior and say both. the lip movements are close though not identical. ages ago when I was in high school some of the girls would whisper either "I need new shoes" or "alligator shoes" to boys as a way of screwing with them. a friend actually fell for the "alligator shoes" one and made an ass out of himself.
