Today, I told my best friend that I liked him and have liked him for a long time. His response was "That's cool. So, when did you get a cat?" FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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 told my close friend that I have a thing for him. His reaction? "Oh, fuck." 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 sent a guy that I like a lot a picture of myself. I'd got all dressed up sexy and did my make-up. He sent me a reply saying, "Your cat is fat." FML
Today, I had a job interview where I was asked, "Who is your best friend?" I replied truthfully, "My cat", only to then be asked what my cat would describe as my best qualities, which didn't go far beyond, "Remembering to feed him". They weren't impressed. FML
Today, I finally got the courage to tell my best friend that I've had a crush on him since our junior year. Since I couldn't see him I shot him a text. His response: "Yeah I know. I've tried kind of ignoring it." FML
Today, I went to a family gathering and was asked by multiple relatives why I was still single. Trying to lighten the mood, I joked that in fact I do have a secret admirer. My little cousin yelled out, "Is it your cat?" He was right, even though, come to think about it, I'm not sure my cat even likes me all that much. FML
Today, I told my best friend that there was a time that I loved her, then told her it was today, yesterday, last week, last month, last year, and listed several years before that, etc. Her response? "Wow, I can't believe we've known each other that long." FML
Today, I was talking to my boss about dogs and cats. I'm a dog person; he's a cat person. He told me that he likes cats better, because they are laid back and don't do anything all day. Before I could stop myself, I blurted out, "Just like you?" FML
Today, I bought my girlfriend a cat. I now have a cat and no girlfriend. FML

thats not fair! what, she(he?) likes him, so he has to automatically like her(him?) or he doesnt know how to show feelings? and now hes a terrible person for not liking her(him?)? and she(he?) suddenly deserves better? thats the sort of self entitlement that leads to terrible terrible things. terrible.

Yeah, a "That's cool" reply followed up by a quick change of topic seems much less awkward than- "You're not my type." and then an uncomfortable silence. But both mean the same thing.

I feel for ya, but 2 me it seems he still wants to be your close friend and didn't wanna hurt Ur feelings by having to say I don't feel the same.

i dont no what ur expecting. If he doesnt like u he doesnt like u, and if u wanna no how he feels about it, u have to ask. U stated a fact, not a question. Thats how guys work plus he probably was trying to avoid an akward moment. Sounds like a good friend to me.

Weeell, maybe the cat was a metaphor for your love??? Nah, he's an idiot, FYL.

He must have felt akward because he doesn't like you back.

I think that if someone likes you and you like them that you don't need to say it. You live it.
