Today, my best friend got engaged to the guy she's been seeing for five years. He also happens to be the man I've been in love with for eight. As she was giving me the details, she nonchalantly gave me her reason for accepting the proposal: "Why the hell not, there's always divorce." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my best friend, the man who I've been in love with for nine years, finally told me he loves me and wants to spend the rest of his life with me. Unfortunately, it was while he was using me to practice proposing to his girlfriend. FML
Today, after three years of dating, my boyfriend finally proposed. To my best friend. FML
Today, my best friend told me she's been in love with me for over 4 years. I'm getting married to the man of my dreams in a month and she's supposed to be my bridesmaid. "Awkward" doesn't even begin to describe our friendship right now. FML
Today, I get to see my best friend and love of my life of two years marry the man she loves. Back then, I lied and told her I was gay to avoid her finding out my feelings for her. FML
Today, I found out that my fiancé of three years, with whom I share a child, fell in love with my best friend and they’ve been going on dates for the last four months after work. FML
Today, I found out that my fiancée wishes she'd never said yes when I proposed, as she is in love with another man, and has been hiding their relationship for years. FML
Today, I watched my best friend get married to the guy I have been in love with since the eighth grade. I was the maid of honor, and had to give a toast to the couple. FML
Today, I told my best friend I was breaking up with my girlfriend of 3 years. He thought it would be funny to tell her I was going to propose to her that night. She showed up telling me how much she loves me and that when we get married how great it will be. FML
Today, my girlfriend of almost 5 years (who broke up with me only a week or so ago) told me that she's been speaking to one of my best friends and sees a future with him instead of me. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend of 6 years. She said no. Why? She's already married. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

8 years?? Perhaps it's time for you to move on?? And for those saying for OP to tell him, I think she's missed her window. He wouldn't have proposed if he didn't love her best friend, and no decent friend or human would ruin their best friend's relationship or wedding.

Ouch. That's a doomed marriage for sure, and that sucks for everyone involved. But if dreamboy can't see that she's that shallow and stupid after 5 years, then you should probably stop dreaming about him and find someone better.

What a shitty friend you are. I love my husband more than anything and I made many flip remarks during my engagement (including the one your friend made) but it certainly did not change how dear he was and still is to me. You need to move on with your life and let her be happy with hers.

Her morals are ****** up.

Before I get thumbed down more, I am referring to OP's friend. Not OP.

No, you had it right the first time. The OP's morals are ****** up for continuing to be in love with a guy once he started dating her so-called best friend.

We're assuming that OP's friend meant that statement. She could have been aware of OP's feelings and didn't want to rub it in even more by gushing about how much she loved him. Or they might not be getting along just yet because of the changed dynamic and OP's friend has cold feet and is trying to comfort herself. Or she might even have been mad at OP and wanted to hurt her. The point is, I'm sure OP's friend must love him because people don't stay in relationships for five years if they don't.

They have been together for 5 years, surely you must have realised that it would lead to marraige. You definately need to move on. Still lots of fish in the sea ;-)

Now, we see where how these "I caught my boyfriend and my best friend" stories get started. Shame on you for desiring your best friend's boyfriend. You need to either (ee) get over him or dump your "best friend," because you're not her friend -- you're just a snake in the grass.

Suckish situation . Call off the wedding

It's not her wedding to call off. The groom-to-be is in love with someone else. Someone far more deserving by the sounds.

This sounds like a Taylor Swift song in the making.

I think the real FML is the fact that you've been in love with an unattainable guy for 5 years. Move on - it's been long enough. But for your friend to enter into what is supposed to be a lifelong committment with the idea that she can always bail if it doesn't work out? She sounds like a real Caring Understanding Nineties Type.

No she doesn't, she sounds like a ****

Your fault for not saying anything during those three years.

It's people like the OP's friend that have made me lose faith in love, and humanity in general really.
