Today, I sent a group text round to my friends asking if they wanted to hang out sometime. One of my friends thought this was aimed directly at her and confessed her love for me. FML

Today, I was texting the girl I am in love with. I was dropping hints about liking someone who I didn't know if they liked me back. Flirting a little. And just when I thought she'd say she liked me too, she said "Don't worry, if you were straight, I would definitely date you!". FML

Today, I sent a text to the girl I like, asking if she wanted to "hang out." Autocorrect changed it to "hand out," and she responded by asking what I was handing out. I panicked and replied, "My love." Now she thinks I'm a weirdo. FML

Today, an old friend of mine texted me, saying we should hang out. I thought it was really sweet and was excited to see her again, until she realized that she was texting the wrong person, and canceled our plans immediately. FML

Today, I sent a text to the girl I've been getting to know online, text which was meant for my best friend. It was a screenshot of my her Instagram page with the caption, "I can't believe I'm actually going to talk to her today." FML

Today, I asked out one of the girls that hangs out in my group of friends (the same group I have been hanging out for three years). She stared at me for a couple of seconds, then said, "Who the hell are you?" FML

Today, I planned on "breaking up" with my best friend by confessing my love for her, hoping she would feel different and move on. She reciprocated. FML

Today, I confessed my love to my crush over text. Later, she posted the message I'd sent her on Facebook and wrote "look at the pathetic man". The post had over 50 laugh reacts. FML

Today, I asked the girl I like if she had her eye on anyone, subtly hinting that I wanted to date her. I sat there while she confessed her love for her cousin. FML

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

False hope

Today, I invited over my best friend, whom I've loved for over a year, since she had to tell me "something important". I got excited and thought she was going to tell me she loved me too. She ended up coming out to me, and wanted to know if I would meet her girlfriend. FML

How exactly is this a bad thing? Unless of course she was in the friend zone

That's an awkward situation OP and I hope it doesn't make your friendship with her more awkward if you don't feel the same way.

That's awkward. I hope you told her nicely that it was a group message and didn't mean it as a date.

And your against "benefits" because...? Science has shown that "sex will ruin the friendship" is a myth. Turning down sex offered to you, on the other had, will.

it really depends on the person. sure, some people do it and are still friends. but a lot of people can't do it

#33, of course she is. They are already friends, so what would be the purpose of confessing love otherwise? Her honor she offered Her offer I honored So all night long It was honor and offer.

Confessing love suggests she wants a relationship, not "benefits".

#52, you're just splitting hairs now, heh-heh-heh ;) "Friends with benefits" is a type of relationship.

Love is a little more than friendship + sex.

#60, VERY little more. If you are doing well in the friendship and sex departments, there's not a lot left to be desired.

I disagree. I can be friends with people, and find them physically attractive (so I wouldn't mind having sex with them) but the combination of both those factors very rarely leads me to falling in love with them or wanting a relationship. I think the "chemistry" thing is really important. It just can't work out without it. Then again, I've been told I'm too picky sometimes, so maybe that's just me...

Friends with benefits is definitely not the same as a romantic relationship. I have friends that I have very strong (platonic) feelings for, or that I could be sexually attracted to, but that would be a different relationship to the one I have with my partner.
