Today, I went out to eat with some friends. They picked a table that wasn't big enough for all of us. I had to sit in the booth behind them. Alone. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I invited my girlfriend to go eat out, hoping to put her in a really romantic mood. She decided to tell her friend, who then invited herself and another couple along. I ended up being made fifth wheel, and had to sit alone at an adjacent table. FML
Today, I ate lunch alone. None of my colleagues saved me a seat. One of those colleagues was my husband. He didn't even have the decency to move so that I wouldn't have to eat alone. FML
Today, I was at a new restaurant when I went to the restroom. When I was done, I sat back down at the table, and idly started listening to my friends chatting. After a few seconds, I realized I'd sat at the wrong table, with complete strangers, who were too polite and/or bemused to say anything. FML
Today, I went to see a movie with 4 friends. I didn't realize that I was the only one who didn't have a date. The theater row had just enough room for everyone but me, I got to sit in back of everyone else while they were making out in front of me for 2 hours. FML
Today, my date unexpectedly brought her friend to dinner with us. They seemed bored of me after ten minutes and left me out of their conversation for the rest of the night. Oh, and they made me pay for both of them. FML
Today, I went out for lunch with one of my co-workers. After work, I talked to one of my friends about how unpleasant the lunch was with him. My co-worker was standing behind me listening in the whole time. FML
Today, I was seated, once again, at the "too small" children's table. I'm twenty. FML
Today, I won a meal for two in a raffle. I had no one to go with. FML
Today, the guy I'm dating came into the same restaurant where I was eating. He was with a girl. He sat at the table next to mine and didn't even bother to say, "Hi." I guess I'm single again. FML
Today, I set up a small social gathering for a few friends. One of them didn't have a ride, so the others, who'd already shown up, went to go give him a ride. After no sign of them for a whole hour, I called to see what was wrong. They went out to eat and completely forgot about me. FML

Ha ha, I love how all these people are saying, "get new friends" and the such. I'm not going to deny it sucks, but life isn't perfect. Once I was with 5 of my buddies when we went to see a movie, the theater was already packed and the longest set of seats next to each other was 5 seats long. Needless to say, a few bruises and a game of 6-way rock-paper-scissors later (ironically, it was 5 papers, 1 rock), one of my friends ended up sitting seperately. I wasn't too happy about it at all, but when it comes down to it, your friends can't always be there for you 24/7. It makes me wonder what kind of saintly, perfect, compassionate people you all have for friends that would accomodate your every need every single time.

My heart really goes out to you... I can't even imagine how you must've felt sitting at that table eating by yourself while listening to your friends have conversations and laugh merrily together. This will be a bad memory that will stick with you forever. But I hope you learned a valuable lesson from this, and that is to not waste your precious time with people who just don't deserve it.

just leave them you idiot. you're better off being alone than being disrespected by people you call your "friends". they probably talk shit behind your back all the time if they do that

some friends... or maybe aquaintences ( or however you spell it) sounds better.
