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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I watched my best friend get married. I then watched her completely ignore my maid of honor speech, because she was messing with the lights behind us. FML

Today, I was the best man at my longtime friend’s wedding. I got so into talking about our shared memories over the years that I accidentally called his bride by his ex-girlfriend’s name at the end of my toast. FML
Today, I found my two best friends making out with each other. Not a big deal, right? Wrong. Today was my wedding day. One of the friends was my maid of honor, the other was my groom. FML
Today, I married the beautiful girl I’ve been in love with since we were both 6 years old. By married, I mean I performed the marriage ceremony as the vicar and watched her smile and kiss her arsehole boyfriend, now husband, right in front of me. 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 attended my best friend's wedding. Instead of throwing her bouquet, she turned around and handed it to me. I was the only single lady out of 150 guests. FML
Today, I married my best friend in the whole world at a small romantic venue. By that I mean I married my actual best mate while completely hammered at a drive-through wedding chapel. My fiancée is gonna kill me when she finds out. 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

That's called infatuation. It's not love.

Been in "love" with since the 8th grade? Obsessive much?

He obviously does not love you back. I've had friends like you who HAVE spoken up. My boyfriend was in no way attracted to them and knowing that a friend was pinning over him made it awkward. If he wanted you, he would've hit on you, not your friend. Do NOT speak up. Let them be happy. If they aren't meant to be and it doesn't work out for them, THEN you can see if he even feels the same. But hitting on your BEST FRIEND'S HUSBAND would kind of make you a bitch.

Your fault. You could have tried to tell him you loved him. It's kind of pathetic you have loved a guy since you were in eighth grade and not only did you never tell him but even when he moved on you didn't. Loser.

aaaw. I just think this is sad :( and dont listen to people blaming you because maybe you did speak up or maybe you knew him before your friend, etc. they don't know the whole situation.

Oh hun, *eighth grade*? You need to find someone else to have a crush on. I don't even have the same haircut as I did in eighth grade.

Did either of them have any idea? (And goddammit, answer me. I'm sick of asking questions about FMLs and the OP never responding.)

Let's make sure I've got this right... you've been in love with him since the eighth grade. Your age isn't listed, but presumably he and your best friend didn't get hitched in high school. That means, BARE MINIMUM, you've been crushing on him for four years. Four years is a long time to be this obsessed with someone who clearly does not feel the same way. Did you tell him, did you hint to him that you had feelings for him? If so, clearly he rejected you, and it's unhealthy to continue this obsession. If not, still, it's clear he doesn't feel the same way about you as you do about him, or he wouldn't have chosen another woman. I'm also guessing that the two of them didn't just decide to get married on a whim - they probably dated for a while first. Which means that you've been in love with your best friend's man for a while. Did you talk to her about it? If so, she's one hell of a terrible friend for asking you to be Maid of Honor knowing how you feel, but you could have said "no." If not, can you really say that she's your best friend? After hiding something like this from her, you still claim to be friends with her? Point being, you deserve it. Stop pining over a man who obviously loves someone else. Think about what kind of friend you are being by staying obsessed with the boyfriend, then fiance, then husband of the woman that you claim is your best friend. Would YOU want to be friends with a woman like that? Get over it, and if you can't, then suck it up and tell your friend the truth. She'll be mad, but if she's really your best friend, she'll help you find a new guy. Maybe next time, you'll be able to approach things in a more mature fashion.
