Today, I was cheering up the girl I've been in love with for years. She was having one of those, "I'm ugly, no one wants to be with me" days. To cheer herself up, she said to me, "If you were a hot guy, you'd date me, right?" FML

Today, my girlfriend was upset, so I tried to cheer her up by telling her how much I love her and how beautiful she is. After a minute, her face started to light up. I thought it had worked until I realized that she was being cheered up by the friends she was talking to online. FML

Today, I tried talking to the very quiet girl in my grade. We were having a conversation when a very hot guy walked into the cafeteria. I said to the girl, "The things I would do for him…" She looked at me dead in the eye and said, "That's my boyfriend." FML

Self-esteem boost

By Anonymous - 23/01/2010 00:10 - United States

Today, I have been dating an incredibly gorgeous woman. She had a poor self image and after the longest time, I finally convinced her to seek counselling to help her self esteem. It worked. So well in fact that she just broke up with me because she "finally realized she could do so much better" FML

Today, at lunch, I was talking to my friends about having a boyfriend. Suddenly, some boy I don't even know said, "Nobody wants to date that ugly bitch." FML

Today, I was walking along the street and passed a young couple. Over my shoulder I heard the girl say to her boyfriend, "Would you still love me if I looked like her?" FML

Today, while eating at my college cafeteria, I started thinking about all the awful crap going on in my life right now, and I started sobbing. Some guy at another table started snickering at me, at which point the guy I like said, "Give her a break. If I was as fuck-ugly as her, I'd be crying too." FML

Today, I was talking on the phone with my crush. After an hour of talking she told me, "If you were half as hot as you sound over the phone, I'd date you immediately." Maybe I should give up on love and start a phone sex line. FML

Today, I asked my girlfriend what she thought of a certain plus-sized vocalist, to which she replied, "She's gorgeous!" I said, "That's great because you remind me a lot of her." Now she's not talking to me. FML

Today, I saw a girl I haven't seen in 4 years. She used to like me back then. Since then I have lost 50 pounds, and never had the confidence to ask her out. She said I looked really sexy so I decided to ask her out on a date then and there. She said no, she only likes fat guys. FML

What makes you think love can't exist without a relationship? Look at Jim and Pam!

Why don't you stop bitching about "being in love" with a girl for years. Go out and find someone else. Idiot.

She just sounds really insecure. Who wants to be friends with someone who constantly needs reassurance like "no, your bum does not look big in those pants/skirt/dress?" whatever you get the picture. Its draining and not worth your time. Go find a girl that actually wants to be with you. She just sounds like a shallow whiny person and Im sure you can do much better.

WTF is with everyone saying get over her/find a girl worthy etc etc? Have you ever had this experience? Getting over a girl you are in love (fine, in lust) with at age 14-19 is about as easy as detaching a leg. I feel for you OP. This is your chance to go all-in though; tell her that she is amazing and you would do anything for her. If response is positive, congrats on obtaining the most wonderful thing in the world. If no, THEN get over her.

Aaaaaaarrrrggghh... Really?? "the girl I've been in love with for years"?? These FMLs are getting soooo old. 1. That's not love. Love takes two people. Love takes knowing what it's like to be in a relationship with the object of your affection. What you have is desperate infatuation that feeds on its own hopelessness. 2. For years? If you have chosen misery in the friend zone because you haven't had the balls to go for it, then blame yourself. 3. If you can be "in love" with a person that displays that kind of passive-aggressive behavior, you clearly have insecurities of your own and some emotional growing up to do. SO on all 3 counts, YDI.
