Today, I went to wish one of my friends a happy birthday on his Facebook wall, only to see that I was blocked. Turns out, he blocked me because he'd developed a crush on me for some time and couldn’t stand seeing the posts between me and my new boyfriend. So basically I can only be his friend if I’m single.

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my best friend’s girlfriend took his phone and blocked me on Facebook, all because I wrote him a heartfelt Happy Birthday message on his wall. I found out because he messaged me from another account explaining what happened. She refuses to understand that we’re strictly platonic friends. FML
Today, I was ecstatic to have received a friend request from my crush of grade 4 after 11 years. He's grown up to be such a hottie. I quickly accepted his request, he messaged me and we ended up chatting for hours. Later, when I messaged him, he called me clingy, and unfriended me from Facebook. FML
Today, my longtime crush, who turned me down because he’s “sick of women”, just got into a relationship. He made it Facebook official, with photos of them and everything. Wanting to even the score, I commented, “So it seems your sickness of women is cured, huh?” He bitched at me for “ruining his moment” and deleted me. FML
Today, my boyfriend had been distant for a while, didn't turn up for my birthday dinner, and gave no explanation. Turns out he was on a date that same afternoon. Two days later he announced his new "relationship" all over Facebook. When he saw I'd blocked him everywhere, he sent a "I miss you" text. Never seen anyone so audacious. FML
Today, after being so jaded by failed relationships, I'd given a guy who slid into my Facebook Messenger a chance. We'd entered the talking stage, only to be told four months later that he’s found a girlfriend, and no longer wants to continue this interaction and blocked me. 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, the guy I've been dating online for the last year and who I'm madly in love with blocked me. FML
Today, I logged onto facebook, and saw that one of my friends had just listed herself as in a relationship. I was happy for her, so I clicked the "like" button. Then I went to her page to see who her new boyfriend was. It was my boyfriend. FML
Today, an old friend unblocked me. Two years ago, she blocked me with no explanation. I got a notification saying she followed me on Instagram. I asked a mutual friend, and they said, "Oh yeah, she broke up with her partner. I guess she’s going through it." So, she unblocked me because she’s lonely. FML
Today, my boyfriend blocked me on Facebook. He said he's restricting it to only close family and cousins. He doesn't understand why I'm upset. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It may have been difficult for him to see, so he blocked you. Either he gets over it, or he doesn't. Just get on with your life.

That's on him, not you. It's best to accept his decision and move on.

Obviously, he is not interested in being just a friend but want to be more than that. So your conclusion is wrong, you can't be his friend unless you are willing to become his boyfriend/girlfriend.

Well, it’s on him for not telling you about the crush (assuming that is the case). If he did tell you and you didn’t reciprocate, it’s also on him to move on to with grace even though it hurts. I’ve been on the receiving end of unrequited love in a similar situation. Give him the space he needs because he’s working through his emotions. If his friendship with you is really important, you then he will bring you back into his life. A true friend will be happy for you and want you to find happiness even if it’s not with them.

Depending on how close you were, maybe he should have explained it before blocking you, but other than that I don't think he did anything wrong. Emotions aren't decisions. I've been there. If it hurts him to see you with someone else, that's just an unfortunate reality, and if so, trying to be friends could very well be a disaster for you both. Be mature, and try to part on the best terms possible.
