Today, I listened to my best friend complain, again, about the two guys she's seeing, and how she doesn't know which one to choose, because they're both perfect. Meanwhile, I'm cleaning up my dog's loose stools, haven't had a date in over three years, and I'm also sharing a room with the very same best friend. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was talking to my best friend about how much of an asshole my ex-boyfriend is. After about 2 hours of non-stop bitching, it turns out she's actually dating him. FML
Today, I found that my "lesbian" best friend and roommate is now dating the guy I've been trying to get a date with for weeks. FML
Today, I went to the movies with a girl I like, then we went to grab a bite afterwards. She spent most of the time telling me how much she dislikes my best friend because he hooked up with a new girl. I then found out the two had been "talking" for a while. FML
Today, my supposed "best friend" started going out with the girl I'd just split up with, immediately after she said she wanted to see other people. FML
Today, I had to give advice to my best friend and love of my life. What kind of advice? What to wear while on a date with some guy. We're roommates, and she wouldn't stop telling me about everything when she got home. This happens on a regular basis. FML
Today, my sister had an emotional breakdown because two guys love her and she can't pick just one. Meanwhile I'm single and spend my time laying treats on my floor in a pattern and watching my rabbit run in circles. FML
Today, I found out that one of my best friends likes the girl that I like. What's funny is that my best friend is also a girl, and has a better chance with her than I do. FML
Today, after watching my roommate and her boyfriend be all lovey dovey for months, I now have to watch two of our other friends flirting as well. I'm painfully single and have been struggling to change that for years. FML
Today, my best friend finally broke up with her knob of a boyfriend. This would be great except now my boyfriend of two years has broken up with me because she's finally single. She introduced us. FML
Today, I had to help my best friend plan his upcoming date with the girl he doesn't know I'm secretly in love with. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Honestly, I think you are probably better off than her in the long-term.

If she's seeing two guys, I'd say that she doesn't deserve either of them.

i think i would rather be single than take on the administrative headache of dating two females (well, that and the obvious Reputation headache). or even one. and i dont have a dog, so, win win for me. :D

OP, instead of focusing on what you don't have, focus on what you have. If you're not happy with yourself, a relationship is not going to solve that.

I dated this guy, once, who was a total douche. His friend always said to me he didn't get why my BF, who was a douche, could get a gf, but not him. I never told him why, but I will tell YOU. He looked terrible. I mean, things he COULD change, wasn't changed. His hair was uncombed, etc., and his beard, which wasn't really a beard, but like a weak attempt at it, looked terrible. HIs pants were pulled up to his navel and his blouses didn't fit. What I mean to say is, if you have an issue, perhaps you should look in the mirror and ask yourself if YOU would date you, considering your appearance. Perhaps showering more often, clothes that fit you and matches, and perhaps being more groomed, might be the way to go. This guy looked horribly ungroomed, but I just didn't have the guts to tell him. He was a nice guy, but kissing him would requite multiple showers.

That may be a tough but right thing to say. After being single for a long time it's easy to get a bit... lazy? Try changing some things up! Get a haircut! Buy a bright lipstick! Feeling special, you'll smile more and flirt more, which will surely attract attention.

I'm a bit wary of telling people that they must change how they look in order to attract a mate (obviously barring personal hygiene issues but that's not the case with everyone), and suggesting someone is unlovable when they don't love themselves hardly helps to kick start gaining confidence. But I agree working on confidence levels is worthwhile. I've found it much more useful to see the positives already there in your personality instead of striving for an impossible standard, I learnt to cut myself a lot more slack and actually stopped wearing makeup because I was appreciating my natural appearance for the first time. It meant when I did meet someone I wanted to date I approached it as someone worthy of their attention by just being myself, wacky dress sense and all.

Tell her to flip a coin and you will take the "loser"

wow messing with two people hearts, karma will sure get her back

1.) That's not how karma works. 2.) You don't know the whole story. She could be casually dating them, or in an open relationship that the guys want to close.

You aren't alone my friend! I've been single for 4 years, our time will come. Just use this time to focus on yourself :)

I like when people complain about tiny stuff like that. It makes me feel like a saint because I haven't kissed a girl in 20 years, 2 months and 4 days let alone dated one.

Yeah but if by 20 years, you mean that is how old you are, it isn't a problem. You are still young and personally I reckon most more 'serious' relationships start around 16 for some but at an older age for most, so you haven't had that much time to meet the person yet. A lot of 20 year olds have never been in a relationship - or kissed anyone, and that is fine but it is not spoken of so much so people tend to feel very alone and like there is something wrong with them. As others have said, your time will come :) I'm 23 and I haven't had much experience in kissing or relationships either - and a lot of my friends are the same.
Tyrez 32
Yeah? Well maybe I just want a **** already.
conflictedebola 20
Yes, and I'm positively certain you'll get someone soon with THAT winning attitude. /s

I love how people are assuming the best friend is a cheater. It's called dating, not "being in a relationship with." People tend to date multiple people, before being exclusive with anyone when they're getting to know a potential partner. Often, people are not sexually involved at that time, or if they are, they should be letting their partners know they are not sexually exclusive.

exactly! well said!

Just date your best friend then?

And you're jealous that you're not a ***** like your roommate?
