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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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!

I completely sympathize. For a digital photo assignment last spring, we had to take photos of our friends. I had to resort to taking pictures of my brother's collection of the full DVD box set of Friends, and presenting them to the class the next day. It can be tough being a social pariah sometimes, but trust me - it's not always bad. It can make you a more independent person since you don't really have many (or any, depending on how socially isolated you are) people to go to for support.

I feel your pain OP. I hated school assignments that made (wrong) assumptions about who you had in your life and the type of relationship you had with them.

At least you got one.

That seems like weird assignment. What about children without one parent and no siblings? Hm.

Seriously, don't get to down about it. I had to do something like that in high school and forged all of them. Now I'm going to get married at 22 yr old. Don't give up! :)

I need friends, you need friends... I think we could make a deal.

I always hated those talk about your life, talk about your friends assignments. Well when you're socially awkward you don't have either of those.
