Today, I bought a friendship bracelet. I'm not sure what's sadder, the fact that I don't actually have a friend to give the other half to, or that I'm actually wearing one of them so it looks like I have friends. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I visited a friend’s house. He has a vast collection of Cartier bracelets. Being strapped for cash and starving, I stole one of them when he wasn’t looking, thinking he wouldn’t notice one missing. I went to pawn the bracelet. It’s fake. Rent’s due tomorrow. FML
Today, I spent a lot of money buying a birthday gift for a close friend, only to find out I'm not even invited to the party. FML
Today, my friends and I were going to do an ugly sweater photo shoot. When we met up, one of them was wearing a sweater I gave on her birthday. FML
Today, it's my birthday. The present I received from my best friend was the exact same necklace which I gave to her for her birthday two months ago. It had been unwrapped and re-wrapped in the same paper. FML
Today, I signed my own plaster-cast to make people believe that I actually have friends. FML
Today, I bought an "I love my boyfriend" t-shirt so people wouldn't think I'm single. I'm very single. FML
Today, I found out that my ex gifted a special handcrafted necklace I made for him to his new girlfriend. She wears it on all her socials. FML
Today, I realised that every morning my girlfriend gets me to help her put on a locket her ex-boyfriend bought her on Valentine's Day. FML
Today, I was so lonely, I tried to hold hands with plastic "horror hand" I bought for Halloween. FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend, who is buying me a ring for my birthday, is buying my best friend a ring that cost 10 times more than mine. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Think of your bracelet as like a hope chest. You're saving the other half for the right friend!

When I was a kid, I won a "best friends" watch set at the arcade. As I was there with family (and didn't really have any friends), I couldn't decide which one I preferred, so I wore one on each arm. One watch said "Best" and the other said "Friends". My sister was incredibly mean about it, but I felt super cool having two watches. After that my mum bought me a nice watch which I still have. Now I don't like having things on my wrist so I haven't worn a watch in at least 10 years. Leave them on the side and pretend they are from two different people. ;)

What's saddest is that it's 2016 and you're buying a friendship bracelet

Sorry I know how you feel, it is how I found this site in the first place.

I found a friendship necklace while cleaning at work earlier this year and started wearing it because I thought it was funny since I have no idea who has the matching piece. I don't have any friends either, but honestly, sometimes the best thing is to keep to yourself and focus on life and let friendships grow when they will. Trying too hard and letting it make you feel like a loser just traps you in a bad place

Op, have you tried joining clubs or groups that share your interest? Check your local library for events, and consider looking into internet communities too. Maybe even take a class for something you enjoy if that's an option. Best of luck, op!
