Today, I was paired up with my long-term crush for a project. She introduced herself to me and asked if I was new this year. We've gone to the same school since kindergarten. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Unloveable
Today, I was paired up with a girl in my class for a project. She started crying. FML

Today, my roommate told me he was bringing home his new girlfriend. When the arrived, he introduced me to… my longtime crush. FML
Today, a coworker introduced herself to me and told me she hopes I enjoy my new job. We've worked in the same building for two years. I say hello every time I see her. FML
Today, the girl who tormented my life for nine years was hired at my part-time job. We're assigned to work together on a three-month-long project which will involve tons of communication. FML
He has a type
Today, I noticed my crush of almost 3 years was talking to me a lot more at school. He seemed genuinely comfortable around me, even playing with my rings during class. I thought maybe I had a chance. Nope. A mutual friend just told me he likes another girl. A girl who coincidentally looks just like me but skinnier. FML
Today, I began my job as an intern at a high school. I saw one of the students looked very familiar, and I couldn't remember from where. Then I figured it out, I had hooked up with him at a club last week. He's a junior in high school, I'm in my last year of college. FML
Today, I asked out this girl at work who I've had a crush on for a while. She looked oddly familiar, aside from the fact that we worked together. It was almost like we'd met outside of work. Two hours and one Snapchat story later, I realized I'd asked out my best friend's girlfriend. FML
Today, I was introduced to my future stepmother, but it turns out that I already know her. Not only are we the same age and went to the same high school, when we were in the same math class together the teacher would often confuse our names because "we could pass as twins". FML
Today, after admitting he had feelings for me, my crush returned from out of town. He'd said that while he was gone, he'd meet people, but only think of me. He came back no longer single. He's known her for 4 days. We've known each other for 6 years. FML
Unrequited
Today, I ran into my childhood crush. She was the one who made me realize I was bi, and I was enthralled by her. Too bad she was straight. She's only gotten more attractive, and now she's in my program. FML

She was demonstrating her bitch skills that she had been learning since kindergarten.

Because she doesn't know all the guys at her school by name? Give her a break, OP may never even have spoken to her before. It kinda sucks for OP but it doesn't mean she's a bitch or anything. Maybe she just minds her own business and hangs out with her select friend group and it's a really big school. OPs probably changed a lot since kindergarten too.

Welcome to the Friend-Zone
Algorithm 24
It's weird; I came to the friend zone expecting friends, but all I found was a bunch of entitled men in fedoras.

33, you don't know what the friendzone is then.
Aimeejasmine 15
Omg #33 that killed me ???? it's not the friends zone it's the ****** creepy zone, there's a reason girls don't wanna date those guys and it's because you're trying to get in our pants, not be our 'nice' friend. Besides to be in a friend zone you actually have to be a decent person to that girl ?

63, the friend zone is when you're friends with a guy or a girl, they know you like them, and they are looking for someone exactly like you but they don't want you.
Aimeejasmine 15
Oh dear.. If I girl deliberately doesn't want to date you and you've made it clear you like her then I'm sorry to say you are not her 'friend'. You are pretending to be her friend and be nice to have sex.. That's all, and we're not blind so you go in the creep zone ? besides if you're actually complaining more about being in this imaginary place, even though she does not owe you sex for your kindess, no woman owes a 'nice guy' shit, and you're not worried your Friend is now offended by these suggestions of more than friendship you should sort your priorities. And no, we're not looking for someone 'like you' we want to get as far as hell away from that creepy guy who used us to try to **** us. :) we want an actual decent partner good day

I feel like your generalizing WAY too much. The friend zone, in a way, can happen. The creepy zone is a whole other thing. If someone tells you their feelings or whatever, I don't think it's fair to just jump on the bandwagon of "Wat, u just wanna *** me lolz creep" It's kind of mean, to be honest. However, if someone starts using the friendzone to put the blame on you for not feeling the same way they do or manipulate you or use it to cover up their sole intentions of just ******* you or all of the above, then yeah, that's a creep right there.

89, that example isn't the same thing as "the friend zone". It's fine if people feel sad or disappointed about their feelings for someone else not being returned. It's not fine for them to consider themselves victimized by it as if the other person shouldn't have been allowed to reject them.

Perfect chance to step it up and get some type of relationship started. Sucks she never noticed you, but being partners will hopefully have you two getting to know each other!

Right in the manhood.

Stalking, you're doing it right! on a serious note, you should try not to be as invisible if you have a crush on somebody ;)

I feel ya, OP. I'm quiet and shy, and get looked over all the time.

Clearly puberty came late, but it hit hard and she finally noticed you.
Kristoffer 35
Don't be sad, this means she's noticed you now.

Everyone already blaming the girl. OP said same school, not same class. Certain schools are quite large and impossible to know every single person in your grade. Some schools I know have ~1,000 people in just one grade alone. I certainly wouldn't remember everyone. And OP has not approached her before (from the sound of the FML). Also... What if OP had an appearance change recently? Hair, braces, acne, etc. Might look like a different person if you don't know them well enough. Just trying to see the other side of this. If I'm wrong, well... At least she knows you now ? :|
