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

Hey, well, happy birthday anyway
Today, my parents took me out to dinner. I thought they were taking me because it's my birthday. Turns out they are getting divorced. They forgot it was my birthday. FML

Today, my Mom came to pay me a short visit at college. She handed me some flowers, which were a Valentine's Day gift, because she "figured I wouldn't be getting any from anyone else this year." FML

Hello?
Today, I found out that my parents forgot to invite me out to eat with them. I found this out when my mom invited my sister right in front of me. FML

Today, I was informed that my boyfriend's mother would be joining us on our Valentine's dinner. I'm not sure if this momma's boy thing is going to work out. FML

Even more lonely now
Today, my parents left on a trip. I wanted to invite my girlfriend over for a few days so we could spend them together. Then my grandparents turn up, "just for a few days, until your parents return, so you won't be all alone in this big house." FML

At least they're thinking about you. But decline, let them have their day :)

Psh, go for it. Skip out before dessert so they can enjoy some of their dinner alone and head to the bar. Think of the free food!

I am going to spend Valentine's Day alone as well. At least you get to spend some quality fun time with the people you love :)

My parents have done that with me and my sisters for years. It's not fyl, stop being dramatic.

I suggest that we veto the word "dramatic" from FML, or else the people who use it realize that these stories are what makes FML a thing.

There are plenty of stories that make up fml. This isn't one of them.

I mean at least you have your parents to tag along with if you wanted to.

Being alone on Valentine's Day isn't so bad OP. Its like any other day. My fiance is stationed overseas, but even when he's home he has a strict "No Valentine's Day" policy. He's macho and doesn't like the marketing. I personally think you should let your SOS know you love them every day not just February 14th... So I kind of spend it alone every year! Go to dinner with your parents and buy yourself some chocolate!

I went with Blondi to Valentine's day. To watch a burning at Treblinka. She loved it!

Hopefully they'll dismiss you before your dad is balls deep.
