Today, I was leaving work when I realized I had forgotten my bag on my desk. As I went back to get it, I overheard my co-workers talking about "last night's office party." I wasn't invited. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it was my co-worker's birthday but she told me not to mention it. Feeling bad for her, I went out to buy her a card, a present, and even a small cake. It turns out that there was actually a party during our lunch break, and I was the only one in our office not invited. FML
Today, I found out my co-workers don't actually like me when they changed the hangout spot after accidentally inviting me. FML
Today, I got an invitation to the "Going away lunch" the company is throwing for me. I didn't know I was leaving. FML
Today, I was uninvited from my own birthday party. FML
Today, I accidentally left the tag on the new pants that I wore to work. Nobody had brought it to my attention for the whole day until finally, before I was about to go home, every single employee and my boss let me know by yelling in unison and laughing as I left the building. FML
Today, I went to work in my best outfit for the big corporate party we were having later in the day. When I arrived, my boss said, "You missed one hell of a party yesterday!" Shit. FML
Today, I was sleeping when my roommate walked in and asked me, "So… when are you leaving?" She had decided to throw a party in our apartment. I wasn't invited. FML
Today, my friends decided to throw a going away party because I'm moving. It would have been great if I had actually been invited. FML
Today, I was invited to a party. Since I rarely get invited to any, I was super pumped. Both my parents work late, so I texted a couple of people to see if I could catch a ride. It turned out everyone's cars were full. I ended up missing one of the only parties I've ever been invited to. FML
Today, all my friends had a huge party and 'forgot' to invite me. They only remembered about me at 2 am when they called asking for rides home because they were all too drunk to drive. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Office parties are just chances for awkward situations to happen between people you're stuck seeing everyday. Better off you didn't go OP

I hate when my job throws parties. I feel obligated to make an appearance instead of doing my own thing, on my own time. OP, just go have fun with your real friends.

Try sticking around after work to join in with the social stuff. It will really help with possible promotions too. Remember it's not what you know, but who you know. Hope this advice helps :)

It's best not to fraternize with coworkers anyways.

That shows that you can find better friends or coworkers.

I've been "that guy" before too OP. By my own "friends." They'd gone out several weekends in a row last summer without me and I found out from some random girl they'd met on one of these excursions when I ran into her with one of my close friends at a store. Needless to say, I don't have many friends anymore. TL;DR - don't worry OP. Either they're shitty people or you don't talk to them much. I wouldn't sweat it :)
