Today, the girl I like asked me to take over her shift at the place we both work at. Being nice, I readily took over. Later, I found out she went on a date with my best friend. He knows I like her. FML

Next time you like another girl, I suggest asking her out when you can. If she rejects, then I guess that's it, you either have to move on or stay upset about the past. But obviously no one wants to stay miserable like that forever. You know what's best for you, so go for it. We're humans after all, so it is normal for everyone to like someone. You can confess to that person you like, but you're nervous, so do it when you're ready. And you're not the only person who had to go through this upsetting experience, but like I said, no one wants to stay upset like that forever, do they?

You like her, your friend likes her. Apparently she likes your friend. Tough break, get over it, move on and be happy for your friend (and her). She was never yours and it's not worth a good friendship.

Dude. Just the fact that you like her DOES NOT MAKE HER BELONG TO YOU. It maybe is a little rude of your friend not to have at least said "I like her too" and discussed it with you, but that's it. She clearly likes him better and that's her right. You have no claim whatsoever, period. It sucks when someone whom you like doesn't like you back, but that's life and it's not anybody's fault.

It's not about claiming anyone, or not being liked back, for all we know she could like OP. We don't know that. Regardless, it's about the fact that there's some blatant disrespect from the "best friends" part. If he liked her, which I hope he actually does and didn't just ask her out to hurt OP, he could have at least had the decency to tell OP about it before completely blindsiding him. I think that's what OP is upset about. I'm sure it wouldn't be much of an FML if it had been discussed prior. Actually, that one might have read something like "Today, I asked the girl I liked on a date; she said no. My best friend later asked her out as well, she said yes. FML."

If she liked OP, she would've asked him out. That's what adults do when they like someone and want to get to know them better. We don't sit around waiting for a boy to ask us to prom and then get so sad when the boy we like doesn't pick up on our hints and signals that we end up going with our back-up-plan-boy.

Nothing. It is as retarded a principle as it ever was.

In tune with what many others here are saying, just simply because you have affections for someone does not mean you own them. In fact, I would think that if you aren't man enough to brave your feelings for her first, then you're the lesser man. It's a shame that your friend wouldn't respect your feelings for her, but sometimes you get scum like that. The best thing to do now is to remove both of them from your life. Kill the feelings you have for them, learn from this experience and don't let it happen again.

I know I'm gonna get thumbs down for this but you people are idiots in this aspect of you and your friend both like a girl and both believe in love and she advances you or you advance them it's not getting stabbed in the back its living life maybe it's actual love

I don't see how someone can do that to a friend.

Funny thing here: he did literally nothing to his friend. He asked a single girl he liked out. OP's personal drama here is absolutely inconsequential.

I don't know why so many people are assuming that OP thinks he has claims to the girl because he likes her. OP didn't say she couldn't date his best friend or anything like that, all he was saying was that he's bummed out because his best friend asked out the girl he likes. Really don't get why that assumption is being made.

And so what you like her? Maybe he likes her too? You can't expect your friends not to date someone because you like them too...

Because you like her now you have some sort of claim on her? Why are your feelings more important than your friends? Clearly he also likes her, maybe you should face the fact that you didn't do anything about it and now it's too late.
