I admit, he might've been able to say something nicer. However, at that moment he was probably too shocked to come up with anything. The real test to see if he's an ass is if your friendship becomes awkward all the time. I did the same thing once(except that his gf was cheating on him and didn't deserve respect), and while his reaction at the time wasn't much better than this, our friendship wasn't hurt and we're still best friends today. Just give him some time and see what happens. Good luck!

I'm going to have to agree with waht most of the more recent people say. He's not an ass, or impolite. You just were like, oh hey, you have a girlfriend, but I HAVE to tell you I love you. That puts him in a REALLY awkward position, and whether you want to admit it or not, you WANTED something to happen. You wouldn't have said anything otherwise. This is a YDI. You said you expected nothing, he gave you nothing. You disrespected his relationship...and expect him to coddle you? Lawl. Stop being so selfish. Put him in an awkward position and disrespect him and his GF and expecting sympathy here. Lawl, you should get none.

Stfu. He was being a good boyfriend to his girlfriend. You on the other hand, were being a *****. Maybe you should have opened your mouth when he was single, instead of trying to mess with his relationship. YOU DESERVED IT.

YDI, I wouldn't bother a guy who's already in a relationship what that sort of bullshit until he's single. Otherwise it might seem to him like you're coming on to him or pressuring him to leave his girl for you, no matter how you say it.

I agree with #23 on this one. Why did you even do that, if you didn't expect anything? And if you didn't expect anything, why are you upset? FYL for loving someone who doesn't love you, but YDI for trying to scam on another girl's boyfriend.

sensitivity is clearly not a trait that men have

lawl, and clearly intelligence is a trait 235 has. What would you say if you were the GF of the person hearing this story, and he was "sensitive". I don't know, I would find it pretty disrespectful. Lets envision a FML that easily could have come from this "Today, my BF left me because some ***** said that she's loved him for two years. He replied by saying I've loved you too, and they got it on, FML". Clearly that's a better scenerio, or or even BETTER, lead her on. Be all like oh man perhaps, it was so nice. I hear girls LOVE to be lead on so they can carry on their dillusion. (sarcasm tags added for the mentally slow) What the OP needs to do is move on, and not be a home wrecker.

o come on thats bullshit that you didnt expect anything from him. Clearly you just wanted him to go out with you out of sympathy. Pathetic

he sure is not the asshole ... i kind of look up to him b/c you tryed to hook up with him even know he is in a realtionship ... you so deserve it !!!

ok lets see the points here. he has a girlfriend you have loved him for 2 years you decided to go up and tell him you expected him to love you back and HE'S the asshole?!?! if he cheated on his gf then maybe he would be but... really?! your pathetic OP and anyone who voted FYL is too.
