Today, it was supposed to be my birthday dinner with two of my friends. They're both now bringing their boyfriends, so I get to be the fifth wheel to my own birthday dinner. FML

Your friends are really rude, if the boyfriends were not invited, they shouldn't have bought them to YOUR birthday. They have no manners.

If that were me I probably wouldn't have enjoyed myself at all. That wasn't very nice of them to turn your birthday celebration into a double date and exclude you. Hate me all you want but I honestly would've left.

I would be one to tell them no, its your birthday, you dont want to be a fifth wheel on YOUR birthday. Its about YOU. If they insist on bringing them, tell them to enjoy their double date but you wont be part of it and thanks for being assholes
