Today, I went to a friend's "party". Everyone bailed but my friend didn't say anything, so it's just me and my girl. The train tickets alone cost £20. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Useful friends
Today, after having a fight with my BFF, she invited me to come along to a party. I found out later that she'd only invited me so that when returning from the event, we could take a taxi and split the cost. FML
Thanks, I hate it
Today, a friend texted me to get a ticket and go to a theme park with her tomorrow. I bought a ticket and didn't hear from her until 5 hours later to say she was sorry, but she doesn't think she'll be going. It was $65 and non refundable. FML
Gratitude walks
Today, I generously paid for my best friend to go to an event she's wanted to see her whole life. Instead of thanking me, she brought her children and made me pay for them too, complained that I hadn't chosen the seats she wanted, then blamed me when she got on the wrong train back to her hotel. FML
Today, I spent hundreds of pounds buying my best friend concert tickets to see our favourite band, complete with a meet and greet. I drove over very excited to pick her up to take her. She had already left. With her boyfriend. FML
Hey big spender
Today, my "best friend" invited me to drink with her and a couple other friends. She told me to "just bring a few bucks for beer". When I got there, no one else had brought money, including her. They only invited me because I'm the only one with a job. FML
Today, after buying over $300 worth of food and alcohol, I found out all my friends aren't coming to my New Years party but headed to the BIG party at the local club. The one which I sold my ticket to after my friends convinced me to throw a party instead. FML
Dishes, now!
Today, I went out to eat with a friend. I was supposed to be paying, but when I tried to, there wasn't enough money in my bank account. She didn't have money with her either. FML
Privatisation
Today, the bus I needed to catch, that replaced the train I needed to catch, to get the flight home was full. I had to get a taxi instead. £140 to the nearest working train station. 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
Taylor comes first
Today, I found out on Facebook that my supposed best friend bought a concert ticket to a show. The concert ticket cost the exact same amount as the plane ticket she told me she couldn't afford to come see me. FML

8 don't see how this is a fail. You spent time with a friend who if you would have bailed would have been depressed.

As someone who just had a birthday party where most of the 18 guests bailed, leaving me with only 4 (and then 2 when half of them had to leave early) I have to say that it's probably really meaningful to that friend that SOMEONE didn't bail. I say more F their life for having sucky friends.

Op? No, they're an absolute shit friend if they only want to spend time with a supposed friend if there's a bunch of people around and it's financially convenient.

So quickly find nice restaurant that you can afford and take your girl out for a romantic dinner.

A three-way could be a nice “party.”

I would like to think you went to his party because of friendship, but it looks like otherwise.

Had to go with YDI. Because this sounds more like an FML for the friend. Who had ALL his/her shitty friends cancel. Including yourself, had you had the chance to do SO.

YDI if your first thought is what a waste of time this was. turn it into a positive experience, and find something to do wherever you ended up. If it sucked that much to spend time with your girl, I hope she dumps you.
