Today, my dad's girlfriend threw me a birthday party and all the gifts, decorations, and the cake were according to my age, which they thought was 12. I turned 13 today. FML

If your dad's girlfriend is like 35 or whatever.. get her a 40 year old balloon on her next birthday :P She won't be happy either.

Aww, that sucks. Congrats and happy birthday! And congratulations on being 13 and typing more coherently than most of the older crowd.

OH NO! Poor you! This is like the saddest thing i've ever seen on here! You're 13 ******* years old and complaining that your STEPMOTHER doesn't know how old you are. Get a ******* grip on reality, kid.

I'm 14 years old, and from what I remember. I've never really had a birthday celebration.

Without thinking about it or doing the math, how old is your mom, her man, your dad, his girlfriend, all your siblings, and you favorite aunt? Now do the math and I bet you get at least one wrong. Now factor in all the things adults have to remember, and you're lucky they remembered your birthday at all.

are you kidding me? He/she is just a kid. What responsible parent ***** up her kid's birthday? Don't tell a child that the day they were born isn't worthy of remembering.

I think the OP needs to cut the girlfriend a little slack. Sure, I feel a little bad for you, but it's not like it's your stepmom or something. Or maybe she didn't realize it; my brother truly believes that I'm 10, even though I was born in '95... All in all, YDI. Happy Birthday, though, =) To the tweens: I don't have a problem with them being on the site- I judge the individual, not the age group. How about you show them that your more mature and ignore their trolling, hm? And one more thing. The OP is 13, plus a lot of little kids are reading this. I say we show some courtesy and not curse too obscenely?...

Don't let these ****-tards bother you. The fact of the matter is that you got insulted. So I can see your motivation behind it. Your father should have known better on what year you were born.

lol? 12 isn't to young for this site when most jackasses on here act 6.

Wow. I agree with a lot of the comments on here. For example 1). Grow up and be happy that she tried to do something nice for you instead of crying like a baby about it. 2). Maybe she thought you were 12 because you ACT like you're 12. 3). There isn't much difference between turning 12 and turning 13, talk to me when you turn 16. 4.) What the hell are preteens/middle schoolers doing on this site?! This material is extremely inappropriate for them, even if they don't realize it.

How are all you idiots not realizing that treating a child like this is making you all look like little children. What are you like 30? I'm assuming that you're a sad lonely pathetic creature eating your emotions on the couch in your own filth and taking a ten minute break from WOW to anonymously yell at little children. Otherwise I simply do not understand how your self esteem is so low that you feel justified in speaking to a kid that way. that was to all negative comments toward the OP btw, yours was just particularly obnoxious.

Okay why do half of the people who commented on here even care if there are twelve-year-olds on this site? Why the **** does it even matter? Just read the FMLs, have some fun, and then carry on! THERE IS NO ******* POINT IN ARGUING WHETHER OR NOT THERE SHOULD BE AN AGE RESTRICTION ON THIS SITE. If you think the OP sounds bratty, then say so and move on. If you think that it's sad that nobody remembers OP's age, then say so and move on. It's not that difficult! Haha, it's actually kind of funny how worked up some people get over such small and useless matters.
