Today, I finally worked up the guts to add the guy I like on Facebook. To make it less obvious, I added 15 other people as well. Everyone added me back, except him. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I finally worked up the courage to start a Facebook chat with a guy I really like. It went so well, and he even agreed to hang out sometime. Seconds after we finished our conversation, he changed his status to, "Desperate bitches really piss me off." FML
Today, I made a new friend at my college campus, which was great, until I added him on Facebook and he started liking posts from 3 years ago, asking if he could be my "dirty little secret" because he knows that I have a boyfriend. FML
Today, I worked up the courage to comment on my crush's picture. I wrote, "Cool picture" on his Facebook profile picture. Pleased with myself, I later logged on to see if he had replied. He had. Well, at least he took the time to reply, "Who the fuck are you?" FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend added his ex on Facebook and Instagram, all within a few days. Lucky me. FML
Today, trying to be nice, I added this really shy kid from my English class on Facebook. Within minutes, he started going through all my pictures and tagging himself as my breasts. FML
Today, my social anxiety got so bad that I'm now afraid to add people on Facebook. FML
Today, I finally worked up the courage to ask my crush out. Also today, she changed her Facebook status to "In a relationship." I'm so damn lonely. FML
Today, I felt left out by the fact that all my friends are getting married or have great relationships, and my boyfriend won't commit. I made a Facebook up and pretended to talk with this really cute guy I made up. Today, I found out that my boyfriend is gay when he started hitting on my made-up Facebook guy. FML
Today, I took a picture of myself and put it on Facebook. After I did so, I realized that in the background, you can see my crush's Facebook page up on my laptop. He tagged himself. FML
Today, I was talking to this guy I like. He's very private and hides all his photos and wall posts on Facebook. Or so I thought, turns out he has me on a restricted friends list, titled "Creepers." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Were you in a waiting room adding those people, to finally notice him sitting across you, add him, and eventually gasp when he muttered, "I don't want to be your friend"?...

Maybe he just doesn't get on the site often?

Don't jump to conclusions. Give it time, sometimes friends of mine have taken months to accept my friend requests.

Some people don't add people until they are close in rl first. Maybe op should take a different approach

^That's a good idea too.

exactly. i never add unknown people because my phone number and stuff are on my facebook - i have only about 200 friends, all of whom i know and trust irl.

200? Whom you know and trust in real life? I freak out at knowing a dozen people and even then I don't trust them all. 200 is just overkill for me.

Haha exactly what i was thinking, in sure if you asked all of them something very important, no 1 but à couple of Peoples Will answer, those are thé one you should trust...(well it actually dépend XD)

not really, i'm in college so there are teachers, classmates, other irrelevant people who need my contact details generally. also, there are around 50 family members. don't judge until you actually know the situation... and honestly, i have several friends whose facebook is the same as mine, but just with 1000 friends.

#80, You message/friend your college professors?
Krirn 21
Well, time to get with one of the other 15.

Did he decline it or just not accept it yet?
glabberfasted 16
There's no way to tell. If someone declines it, it will just stay in your pending requests until you cancel it.
AlaskanG 27
No it won't. If they ignore it, it will say there. But if they decline it, when you look at their page you have the option to add friend again.
tacopandaroo 12
That's not true anymore. The immediate option is "Not now". To delete the request you have to go to their profile and click "Respond to friend request" where it has the delete option or go to the list of friend requests people have sent you.

How well do you know the guy you like? If he barely knows you, it shouldn't be a complete surprise. Lots of people only add close friends and family. Why not send him a message first to chat before just adding him?

I know that feeling :( It really sucks, I'm sorry. :(
Joshwarrior 39
Well now at least you have 15 new friends on fb (: don't really see the logic though since I don't think it shows peoples new friends unless they were all good friends of his in rl he wouldn't know.
Epikouros 32
Your friends' new friends do show up in the Fetlife feed, so OP might be telling a little white lie...
glabberfasted 16
It shows up at the top, near the personal information. It'll say "recently became friends with:" or something like that.
Joshwarrior 39
Lol oh really? Well I have a fb but hardly use it and only keep it because of all the photos I have on it :/

Were you at the Doctors office sitting across from him when you did it?
Joshwarrior 39
All while she was sitting right across from him. That would then truly suck :P

Dude! doesn't mean he dislike ya, or trying to ignore ya, maybe he little busy.!

Just work up the guts and talk to him. If he likes you back, great. If he doesn't, you'll know not to wait on him and get your hopes up.
