Today, I am so shy and friendless that my mother is literally setting up a play-date with one of her friend's daughters. I'm 25 years-old and this is my best chance at making a friend. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I talked to my mom about hanging out with her. She got out her phone to schedule an appointment. FML
Today, I realized the only reason my mom trusts me to stay home alone for long periods of time is because I don't have enough friends to throw a party. FML
Today, I'm so hopelessly lonely that I've agreed to meet up with my ex for some semblance of friendship. FML
Today, I'm a 19 year-old college student in NYC, it's Friday night and I'm sitting alone on my bed in my dorm room, talking to my mother on Facebook. Then she stopped responding. Turns out even my mother has better things to do on Friday night. FML
Today, my mom asked all the old ladies in her church to pray that I meet "someone special". FML
Today, I woke up to an email confirming my membership to a dating site. Turns out my mother is as annoyed by my loveless life as I am. FML
Today, my mom tried to give me a pep talk to boost my self confidence. Somehow, it ended up turning into a conversation about how much of a loser I am and how I have no friends. FML
Today, I live with my mother and realized she goes out with her friends and dates more times a week than I do in a single month. FML
Today, a friend of mine came to my house with tears in her eyes. I thought she was finally single so I could ask her out. Actually, her mother found out she was dating a girl, so she wants me to be her fake boyfriend as a cover-up. At least we're "dating" now. FML
Today, my mom friended all my friends on Facebook then thought it'd be a good idea to try and act like a teen so she'd be considered 'cool'. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Some of the best relationships start as friendships in the sandbox throwing sand in each other's faces and screaming "No, YOU are a poopyhead!" Don't forget to put on a clean diaper first, and bring an extra juice box for her. Chicks dig that. Good luck.

I have social anxiety so I can relate. Although I don't if I would be able to go out on a 'play date' because even that would give me anxiety. I had to meet my sister's new boyfriend and that was hard because she wants us to get along. I had to give myself pep talks to finally do it. I get shaky and everything when I think about socializing with new people. Currently I have no friends except some acquaintances.

The only reason I met my husband is because we were set up by my little brother's wife. Nothing wrong with recieving an introduction.

I've been there, OP. I've had horrible social anxiety my whole life. My mom tried to set up a "play date" of sorts for me with one of her friends daughters, and she never texted or called me. Woot.

Try OK Cupid, its great for making friends. That way you could look through a bunch of people until you end up with people you´d get along with well. Its great!
