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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was texting with my childhood crush late at night and we were exchanging secrets. I figured this was as good a time as any to tell her about my long-standing crush on her. Turns out she's a lesbian. FML
Today, I found out the reason my crush has been talking so openly to me. Not because she likes me back, but because she thinks I'm gay. FML
Today, I saw my crush for the first time since she rejected me and said she was a lesbian. The man she was passionately making out with in the dining hall would state quite the opposite. FML
Today, the girl who I had a desperate crush on in high school 25 years ago, and who would never go out with me, told me that she was actually head over heels in love with me, but was so cripplingly shy that she couldn't say yes. She's divorced now. I'm married. FML
Today, I saw the girl I've been crushing hard on. I go up to talk to her, and I'm immediately greeted by, "I like girls." FML
Today, I found out that my crush is a lesbian. Everyone knew about it. Everyone also knew that I liked her. No one told me. FML
Today, there was a new and extremely attractive girl at youth group, so I decided to introduce myself. Her reply was, "Wow, I've always wanted to meet a gay guy!" FML
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
Today, it was my best friend's wedding. The night ended with her in tears outside her hotel suite, where she confessed that she has a serious crush on me. I have a serious crush on her too. We're both straight women. I'm really confused. FML
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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Give it a go -- in my experience, most girls are bisexual. When I mention sex, they say "Bye!"

Honestly you could bring it up with her in a joking manner just to see where she stands cause you never know ;) You could go to her chat and catch up then casually slip in something like "I know this may sound odd but I used to have the BIGGEST crush on you when I was younger!" and depending on how she reacts will tell you where she stands. :)

I agree that you should mention to crush that you are interested in her. Do it discreetly and not in a way that could be construed as threatening. If you are diplomatic, you have nothing to loose, assuming you are already “out” as bisexual.

unsure why this was downvoted... the friend being straight could mean she has only been with guys. she could still say yes for the sake of giving op a chance out of respect for the friendship and find out they are also bi. it is easier to know you are not gay, than whether you have feelings towards the same sex and could be bi. and as stated if OP handles it in a decent fashion worst that happens (excluding some form of homophobia) is she gets turned down.

I don’t get why it would be considered acceptable by some in the comments to try and convince a friend she’s not actually straight, when it’s pretty objectively a terrible thing to try and convince someone who is gay or a lesbian that they are really bi or straight. Respect her sexuality too. If you bring it up and she’s interested that’s great, but if she’s not attracted to women, she doesn’t need to be, and that’s okay.
