Today, it was my birthday. The only person who remembered was my dad who got me a phone charger for my car, which I didn't even need because he got me the same exact thing last year. FML

Today, it was my birthday. The only person that remembered was my creepy stalker. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My father didn't get me a birthday present or do anything for me, and acted as though he only came to visit because it was expected. Yet when it was his birthday a couple months ago, he expected me to take him out and pay for it FML
Today, the only "Happy birthday!" I got was from the cake I bought for myself. FML
Today, I called my dad asking him to wish me a happy birthday. Yay. FML
Today, as I was waiting in line to give my mom her birthday present, my dad gave her the exact same gift I'd also bought for her. FML
Today, it was my birthday. Two of my best friends forgot it, and so did my grandparents. All of my friends were busy, so I spent it alone in my car. FML
Today, it was both my and my stepmother's birthday. In preparation, my dad bought a huge banner with my stepmother's name on it, and a lovely birthday cake. When I told him it was also my birthday, he just grunted and taped a post-it note to the banner with my name on it. Same with the cake. FML
Today, it was my birthday. Nobody said anything, not even my Facebook friends, who probably got a notification about it. FML
Today, my Dad gave me my birthday card. The envelope was blank, as was the card, and the £0.25 price tag was still on. He was fully aware of all these things, but handed it to me and said, "By the way, I didn't write anything." Happy birthday to me. FML
Today, it's my birthday, and apparently my family forgot it. But one person didn't forget. My dog gave me a little present in my new shoes I bought for myself. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Change. But not the gift. Change your family.

Maybe him remembering is the real gift. The charger is just material. Happy birthday!

Sometimes, just someone acknowledging your birthday can be all the gift you need. We often forget that material things come and go. I personally believe that the time and thought your dad took thinking about you is far more valuable than a phone charger.

Happy birthday OP! And by the way, at least he remembered and on the bright side, you have a backup charger.
