Today, I felt left out by the fact that all my friends are getting married or have great relationships, and my boyfriend won't commit. I made a Facebook up and pretended to talk with this really cute guy I made up. Today, I found out that my boyfriend is gay when he started hitting on my made-up Facebook guy. FML

You deserve that and more for trying to make him jealous like that. Even if he was straight, he'd be 100% right to not commit to someone as insecure and manipulative as you.

well... now you can confront him and be like "sooo.... when were you going to come out of the closet?" but seriously FYL for having to make a fake account to try and make him jealous

This is just unbelievably sad. I guess talking to him about his commitment issues made too much sense so you created a fake dude to get him jealous? Also, you said you felt left out your friends were getting married or had great relationships. Well you had a relationship too so I don't see why you felt left out there... I don't know what kind of man or relationship you ultimately want but it'd still be best not to compare your relationship with your friend's relationships.

thats lame. and i suppose you didn't talk to him (through the fake account) and found out what he thought of you?

@23 No one hurt me and am in a good relationship. I find it completely ridiculous that a marriage is the only thing that constitutes for some women including probably yourself a "good relationship". It's pathetic and sad the only way a man can truly say he loves you is to go into debt so that you can show off in front of a bunch of your friends with a shiny rock on your finger. As far as telling people how to live why don't you practice a little more of what you preach. Look up statistics before replying to me with such an uninformed answer naive answer. ~50% of marriages end up in divorce court and in a rather small time frame which is funny considering the oath of until death do us part, heck look at the FML where the person helped pay for the wedding and it didn't last a week. For those that do last longer it is usually only for the kids which noble in intention but when you have two people that hate each other living together for the kids its probably better to split or you have people too broke to divorce and just start seeing other people. Marriage has nothing to do with loving the person your with there have been many more relationships that have been successful without marriage than there ever will be with marriage.

#28- the reason why half of marriages end in divorce is because people are getting married for the wrong reasons and split at the first sign of a "problem". Marriage isn't really that bad and it does have to do with loving the person (well, when you're getting married for the right reasons). I don't think marriage is for everyone though... Anyways, as some people have already stated, maybe he figured out it was you and wanted to just play along to see how you would react?? It's rather sad you had to create an account to try to make him jealous...

wow, you are extremely passive aggressive. grow some balls.... actually now that I think about it, that would help in two ways because then maybe he would be more willing to marry you! XD

You sound too young to be married since you had to resort to such methods to make your boyfriend jealous. Anyway you'd be best friends with that one guy/girl who made up a fake facebook account to make plans with herself/himself.

@29 exactly and that is more of what I am trying to (with sarcasm) get across you don't get married because "I felt left out that all my friends are getting married" and you don't get married to play princess for the day. Ultimately if you truly can spend the rest of your life with a person you can do it with or without marriage. If you can do with all the better.

You aren't READY for a commitment. If you still play games like that, you are not ready to get married at ALL. You're acting like a teenager! It's also possible that your boyfriend guessed this and is teaching you a lesson for playing those childish games. Either way, if you're playing them, you obviously don't care much about your relationship. What if he took it seriously and had the more common reaction of dumping you?

#28 - I never had my facts wrong. It is absolutely true that marriage is a source of happiness to some people...I never said how many people. Why are you so angry at women who want to get married? It is a woman's evolutionary (not always purely shallow, materialistic) goal to have children (theoretically speaking of course), and most women in today's world want stability before they have children. I, as a woman, believe that a man who I married and who is committed to me will ultimately be the best father to my future children. If you're so very grounded in being realistic, that's my realistic view. And then of course, there's the idealistic view that many women hold - of getting married and having a beautiful ceremony, and glorifying the desire of staying with someone forever. It's a glittery, glamorous dream - nobody said it was realistic - but don't get mad at women for having it. Just make sure the woman you're with doesn't uphold this dream, and let the rest of us dream on. Some of us will, in fact, realize this dream. But if everybody shuns it, nobody will realize it. You can't control dreams. No cynical argument about how failure is the "rule," will sway us. Each one of us would like to be the exception.
