Today, my older sister told me about their table plan at their wedding. She is one of my best friends too, so I was shocked that I had been placed far away, and separated from my husband. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to my best friend's wedding. All my friends and their boyfriends were seated at one table, while I, as the only single girl in the group, was put on a table with all the other single people. They were all over forty years older than me. I feel like I have seen my future. FML
Today, while looking through the newspaper, I saw that my sister got married a couple weeks ago. Not only did she not invite me, she "forgot" to mention it yesterday while we were having lunch. FML
Today, my sister announced her pregnancy at my husband's funeral. FML
Today, I was supposed to get married. Instead, my sister made up a story about me cheating on my fiancé at the bachelorette party. He bought it and dumped me, despite there being no evidence of this. Turns out it was all a plan because they were secretly seeing each other for months. FML
Today, my best friend of over 16 years is getting married. I was supposed to be her Maid of Honor. Instead I was uninvited a few weeks ago. FML
Today, my husband came clean to having an affair with my sister. I later found out my other sister encouraged the affair because she thought they'd be a cute couple. FML
Today, I arrived at my best friend's wedding and found out that my invitation was no longer valid. His brother tried to explain that they'd decided to make the ceremony for family members only, then two our classmates popped out to say hello. They're not related, neither to my friend nor to his fiancée. FML
Today, I found out my little sister is marrying my ex, and that my mother set them up. FML
Today, my sister backed out of my wedding because it was becoming too much about me. After I begged her to reconsider, I had no choice but to pick a new bridesmaid. When my new bridesmaid posted on Facebook how excited she was, my sister commented, "See, you made HER feel special." FML
Today, I found out that my fiancé's sister, who only got engaged a couple of months ago, is getting married before us. I wouldn't have a problem with this if she wasn't planning her wedding to be exactly like ours will be. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Nope nope nope. First I'd point it out and ask if it was a mistake. Then I'd calmly ask what her reasoning is. And regardless of her answer I'd tell her that I'm sitting with my husband, close to the rest of the family, or I'm not coming. I get that it's her wedding, and I could tolerate being away from the rest of the family. But it's rude and disrespectful to expect you to sit apart from your husband. It'd be a deal breaker for me. "Her" day or not.

If everyone in her family had been placed separately to socialize with people she would have noticed that and secondly, if bride needs help from family she needs to let them know before and ask if that is okay. I would not feel comfortable sitting at a random table and being forced to socialize. Of course it is rude of guests to demand where they ought to sit but separating her from her husband (and the rest of the family) is unreasonable.

“Put my seat where I want or I’m not going to the wedding”? Really??? You people are horrible. She probably needs y’all to socialize with people to help get the party going. Family has to help out with that.

Which would be fine, except you don't separate a husband and wife. I wouldn't go somewhere that I wasn't allowed to sit with my husband. And he would turn down any invitations where he was told I couldn't sit with him. It's just rude, disrespectful, and poor etiquette.

Her husband and her both would still be together then. It makes no sense to separate a husband and wife in a seating plan.

Exactly.

Dude you are horrible. You constantly make sexist comments. Sit down bloopaloopa or what ever your name is.

She thinks you can do better. Did she put you at the "good" singles table or with the "loser" singles?

Maybe it’s a buffet and the table is near the food. So...the Kraft singles. Yes, I’ll see myself out...

Are you a bridesmaid?

I suspect that she is seated with members of the wedding party and her husband was seated elsewhere.

She wouldn’t be placed far away if that was the case.

My guess is that your sister is one of those morons that thinks the wedding isn't for her and the less close to her people are the more careful she has to be of their feelings. Seriously I've seen people screw over the feelings of the people they care about because someone they don't that has some vague connection to them might have their feelings hurt.

For revenge get super drunk and make a toast where you take off your top

Do you mean the tables for the bridesmaids and groomsmen because the groomsmen are supposed to sit on the groom side and bridesmaids are supposed to sit on the bright side sometimes just depends on how the bride and groom want to do it

That is absolutely normal if you’re in the bridal party…
