Social distancing

Today, I stood by the wall at a party while everyone else danced and ignored me. It was my birthday party. FML

Get out there and dance! You can complain about things or you can have fun. When you're out with people, be the creator not the detractor. You and everybody else will have a better time. Trust me. I've been the wall person. It's not fun. And Happy Birthday!

For everyone saying OP should just get out there and mingle: easier said than done. Some people have some forms of social anxiety which make it difficult to put themselves out there and risk embarrassment or the feeling they've lost control, etc. Not only that, but the point of the FML is that these people are OP's friends and they aren't bothering to see what's wrong with him/her. Yes, OP should be socializing with guests. But at the same time, it's their birthday! On an important day like that it's supposed to be all about you. That tells me that OP's friends are pretty shitty for ignoring him/her and letting them get away with standing there alone. If one of my friends were acting like that on any given day, let alone their birthday, I'd immediately go over to see what's wrong. OP, I'm sorry people made it hard to enjoy your own party. Try having a specific job, like being the DJ. People will come up to you if only to request a song and you can start a conversation from there. Or you can go around to your guests and ask them if their having a good time. Then you look like a good host/hostess and aren't stuck at the wall and have a chance to either mingle, or smack these losers in the head for not noticing you. Your choice. Happy Birthday!!
