Today, my boyfriend told me that he loved me for the first time in a way I'll never forget. In fact, his exact words were, "You're not the only one that I love." FML

Well he must love his parents of course right! And his cats and dogs... And goldfish... And food...

At least he's honest.. Maybe it was awkward, he wanted to tell you and didn't know how, he was nervous... But honestly, you should probably just move on.

I don't get why people can't just be man enough or women enough to just tell the other person that they don't love them anymore. The other person will be sad but at least you were honest with them instead of cheating on them.

Sorry op. I hate to break it to you be he ain't the one.

I love how everyone is assuming OP's boyfriend meant "I love you but there's a list of like six girls I love" kind of way. It's entirely unreal to expect for your SO to give their partner "all of their love" in the way that they can't love anyone or anything else. Everyone can possibly love someone with all their heart but still also love their family, friends, pets, weather, Mac and cheese, etc. and anyone that finds that a problem-- that's their problem. This is the perfect situation where everyone can answer "what is 'love'?" and every answer will be different, and can be a combination of them. And of course this FML is vague, because that's what works, but it could very well be that OP's bf had a slip of the tongue. I'm which case OP, I recommend that you ask him to clarify what he means. He could have meant a number of things but his message simply isn't as transparent as it should have been. In which case your BF meant "I love other people more than you in the bang bang flower valentine way" however, then you should sit down with your BF and talk about the relationship because it might not be wise to stay in a one-sided relationship.

It's definitely possible that the bf said that and meant that he loves mac & cheese, but I don't think that op would post if that was what the bf meant.

I suggest you should talk about your relationship

I hope you are now referring to him as your EX boyfriend.

Been there. Least you didn't marry him before that happened.

I hope he means that in family/pets way and not in the I love somebody else romantically way...
