  I had my best friends brother do that to me one drunk night. While his wife was downstairs in the kitchen. No fucking way, though I don't think I would have dated him if he was single. I knew he was trouble like that the day I met him

  My friend from one of my accounting classes texted me one day to tell me that he had deep feelings for me, and that he was falling for me. I wasn't engaged at the time, not were FI and I living together at the time, but still. He knew I had been with FI for years and that we were serious so wtf did he think? And I totally would not have dated him if I was single. He had a kid and apparently married his friend as a favor, so he also had a wife. No thanks.

  A favor like what? Like for a green card or insurance?

  
  

  This stuff drives me crazy almost as bad as a PPD, but at least without the lying to family.  But you're essentially defrauding the government with that shit-- and we have enough things costing our tax dollars without giving bogus benefits to assholes like this.

  If I'm not mistaken it was for insurance. For some reason I can't really remember. It was ridiculous, whatever it was. He was so shady about it all. And he kept saying how he was miserable, and was not happy. Then a few months later, she was knocked up. So he was like I guess now nothing can happen between us. Um dude, nothing was EVER going to happen.
  
  To be honest, the only reason I gave this kid the time of day is because he was the smartest kid in the class. And I was flunking accounting. So another classmate formed a study group with a few of us in the class and we all studied with him because he was the only one that understood the class. The average was like a 30 in that class, and the prof curved the hell out of the class. This kid singlehandedly screwed the curve, but he was very helpful at the study sessions, when he did show up.

  One of my best guy friends (who is also my ex) tells me things like this when he's unhappy with his relationship (they've been together for like 3 years though, and overall he's happy, he just gets bored sometimes...until I remind him how good she is for him).

  
  

  I feel like they're just lonely and insecure and want attention.

  
  

  Annoying, sure. But I get where he's coming from.

  Blame Hollywood. I'm thinking Maid of Honour in particular, but I'm sure there's at least one more movie where a guy going "oh hey, I actually really like you" at the last minute manages to get the girl.

  I don't know that any dudes have seen these movies though, they're mostly chick flicks haha

  
  

  I have one friend I've known since 7th grade and we always did kind of like each other but the timing just never worked, we went to college in different states and when we actually were in the same state we were each in relationships. He still texts me sometimes like "promise me if you're ever single we can go on a date". I'm like uum null promise because I'll never be single again buddy! 

  I recently tried to set him up with a friend of mine because they were perfect for each other and he blew it. He texted her for 2 months but refused to actually meet up with her or take her on a date. I'm like WTF is wrong with you.

  Between Made of Honor and Something Borrowed, Hollywood has ridiculously romanticized the last minute epiphany.

  At least in Something Borrowed, you get to see some of the fall out from the epiphany. But they portrayed the characters in such a way that you are really screaming for it to happen.

  My FI was actually the one to tell me this. Ironic? I was in a relationship when I met him and I thought he was in one as well. Turned out they broke up. But apparently he had the hugest crush on me but wouldn't act on it because I had a boyfriend. Like, a crush to the point he'd stare at my underwear and try to guess the color of it. LOL Yes, my underwear showed often, as I lived in sweatpants.
  
  Since dating him, the weirdest thing I've gotten from a guy was "I'm dating a girl who reminds me completely of our relationship. She's so much like you." Well, that's not awkward. That was from my 1st love though, who I do talk to occasionally

  Duh, this is all just a big romantic movie and you're supposed to ditch your FI on the spot to run off into the sunset with the new guy.  Because that is exactly how real life works all the time.

  I've had three exes come back months or years later with regrets over ending things with me. Sorry, you had your chance and blew it. And you know, when this happens, we're better off. One thing I love about FI is that he's a decision maker. He secured a second date before the first was over and nailed down our engagement within a year. Go-getters are the best, wishy-washy no!
