Today, as a part of my autobiography project for school, I needed to have 2 friends and 2 family members each write me a letter. I ended up having to forge 3 letters. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I wrote in my own yearbook with different styles of handwriting so my mom would think I have friends. FML
Today, I had to make up a story about my "friends" at school so my mom doesn't keep telling I'm a loser. FML
Today, I had to complete a project for my course in Italian. We had to write a little paragraph about a friend. I had to make one up. FML
Today, I found myself lying to my diary. FML
Today, I turned in an essay after staying up late to work on it. I was away when the teacher assigned it, so I'd asked my friend what the subject was. It transpires that she'd given me the wrong one, all because she was mad at me for not returning her pencil. FML
Today, one of my colleagues was asked to rewrite an entire project, which I wrote last week. I'd spent more than 4 days writing it. FML
Today, I signed my own plaster-cast to make people believe that I actually have friends. FML
Today, after missing college for a week due to illness, I found out my "friends" were bullshitting me about us having to write an important no-extension Biology essay. Copious amounts of my sweat, snot and tears went into that desperation-fueled nightmare. Thanks, dickheads. FML
Today, we had to give a surprise speech in speech class on two of our best and closest friends. My first friend was my mom. I had to make up the other one. FML
Today, I sent a love letter I'd written meant for my crush to a friend so she could evaluate my prose before I actually sent it to him. For some reason, my emotions got the best of me, and I mistakenly CC'd my mom. She replied with three crying-with-laughter emojis. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

On the bright side, now it's truly an autobiography!

Dipping your dog's paw in ink and making him step on a sheet of paper doesn't count. You need to forge a fourth letter!

If only you were Norman Bates. You could be yourself, your parent, and your friend all at once. Some people have all the luck.

It depends on the.situation... if you didn't have those people available to you, then fyl. If you waited until the very last second and didn't have time to ask people to help, ydi.

Well knowing my friends and family and how they can be at times I'm better off forging the letters myself as well.

I always hated those kind of school assignments. Ended up doing the same as you, OP. At least you have 1 that isn't forged.

School projects in my household always ended up being "parent projects". How grumpy it makes them, yet they felt the need to take over completely just to get it over and done with faster!

If the OP did the assignment for real, it might have looked something like this: "I should have settled for a *******. -Dad" "Back off! Everyone thinks I'm an only child. -Love, Sis" "Our religion is full. We are not accepting converts now. -Your local Jehovah's Witness." "Amway products are not for everyone. Try Mary Kay. -Your local Amway rep."

That's sucks. How many people did you ask? You should've at least got the two from your family. That's really is messed up that you didn't.

I was in a simular place a few years ago with college admission. The consoler wanted 3 letters from friends to help write her recommendation. I ended up writing one myself from my "cousin" who lived out of state. My two friends had to do the same.

similar, its not that hard to look it up or let autocorrect do its job. (BTW that's how I just spelled it).
