Today, it is both my birthday and Easter. My whole family came into town and my mom made a big dinner with all of my favorite foods. After church, I took a nap. When I woke up, all the food, including my cake, was gone. No one thought to wake me up. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it's my mom's birthday. I woke up at midnight to be the first to tell her happy birthday. When I awoke in the morning, I decided to bake her a cake. Little did I know my whole family was going out to lunch to celebrate. I wasn't invited. FML
Today, I woke up and decided to make my mom a special Easter breakfast in bed. I pre-heated the oven to bake the sausage just the way she likes. Guess where my easter basket was. FML
Today, it was my birthday. My family usually gives me a financial gift, but didn't this time and said nothing about it. I cooked my own birthday dinner without help, then washed everyone's dishes. I got my own cake and ate it alone because they were too busy getting drunk. Nobody bothered to sing Happy Birthday either. FML
Today, I asked my mother if we were eating supper soon so I could take a nap. She said no so I went into my room and fell asleep. When I woke up, everybody was gone. My entire family of 6 went to Olive Garden while I was sleeping. FML
Today, I traveled 3 hours to a town I hate, to spend my birthday with my mom and brother and his family. My mom didn't realize it was my birthday until the cake slice with candles was placed in front of me. FML
Today, it's my birthday, and everyone, family and friends, forgot. Except my dog who left me a present on my bed. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I spent the day doing nothing but chores, amongst which baking my own birthday cake. I was then so exhausted that I couldn't even stand my own company, so I ate the cake alone on the couch, watching TV. It didn’t taste great. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I went downstairs expecting birthday greetings from my parents. Instead, they just sat on the couch saying nothing. Thinking they forgot, I casually reminded them. My mom scoffed and said, "Go do the dishes." FML
Today, I've been so stressed out that I forgot my own birthday. I only remembered when my mom talked to me to let me know she wasn't planning on doing anything for it. FML
Today, I was visiting my mom for Easter weekend. I rarely visit her, since she lives on the other side of the state. She spent the nicest day of the visit sick all day in bed. It wasn't food poisoning, the doctors don't know what it was, but she was fine the next day, when it was raining and much colder, so no outdoors for us. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You totally need a new family.

Yeah, but when your whole family is here, and there's a dinner for your birthday, it seems reasonable to expect to be woken up for it, don't you think ?

Yeah, I mean when your mom makes your favorite food and buys a cake on your birthday, it's totally arrogant for you to assume, considering cultural norms and past experience, that just some of it may well be for you.

byah, I'm sure they were celebrating Easter.. and if it was suppose to be a combo, maybe the OP should be social instead of nap.

sounds like you were being rude.. did you want everyone to give you a foot rub too? you sleep with a houseful of company and then whine you're not the center of attention.. tough luck!

They made him food for his birthday. The food was for him. For his birthday. They were all going to have some, but it was his birthday so they made his favorite food. And got a cake. Then he fell asleep. And instead of waking him up so they could all eat, like normal human beings would do, they decided to eat everything while he slept. Get it now?

the food could of been for Easter dinner and the cake could of been dessert. just because the OP implies it was a birthday dinner, doesn't make it so. seriously, the Mom would of woke her up if she went to all that work for her birthday. Get it??

So you're implying that OP is an asshole even though as you say, the dinner and cake wasn't even for them. How is that not also an FML? The entire family comes over and forgets their birthday? Either way they're jerks, and OP does not deserve it.

Well at least your family acually came. My birthday is coming up and today almost everyone decided to go back to their homes in France, Spain, Germany, and England! Then my aunt who lives here in the U.S. decided she going to Aruba for no reason.
