Today, it's my birthday. When I asked my mom if we were gonna do anything special for my birthday. She said, "Don't lie to me. It's not your birthday." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I told my mom I was going out to hang out with some friends. She looked me dead in the eye and said, "Don't lie to me." FML
Today, it's my birthday. I called my mom to thank her for the gift she'd sent. She was surprised and said, "Oh I thought you were waiting to open it." She ended the conversation with, "OK, I'll call you on your birthday." 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, my dad forgot it's my birthday. When I told him about it, he accused me of lying and threatened to ground me for a week. 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 called my mom to let her know I was coming home for my upcoming birthday, as I haven’t seen my parents in months. She then stated she hated my birthday because it reminded her she was getting older, and they may have preexisting plans that evening anyways. Really feeling the family love… FML
Today, it's my birthday. My parents, with whom I live, told me that they didn't get me anything, but instead they said they would knock off a bit of the housekeeping I owe them. FML
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, it's my birthday. I'd asked my mom weeks ago if she could watch my kids, so my husband and I could go celebrate. She told me an hour before we were supposed to leave I'd have to reschedule, so she could watch my brother's kids while he goes out for fun. Gee, thanks mom. FML
Today, I got a text from my mom shaming me for forgetting my sister's birthday. It isn't her birthday today, it's mine. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

lol, OP posts another FML the next day. "Today, I saw that my FML was published. My mom actually had a surprise planned for me, but I had already submitted the FML. My mom saw it, and now hates me. FML"

36-The cake is a lie. Perhaps that's why OP's mom thought he was lying? She got her internet and life mixed up? (Pulling at straws....I'm so going to get the short one...)

Happy birthday OP. If we could send you a huge cake, we all would. Just know that your birthday would never be disregarded in our lives! You matter to all of us! Hugs!

Get out there and make your own fun! Can't drag your poor mother out for fun all the time, after all.

She never said she wanted to "drag her poor mother out". I'm 20 but I still enjoy going out for a casual birthday dinner with my family, I'd be upset if they forgot as well.

Not only forgetting, even telling OP to "stop lying". That's something that can leave a long lasting emotional scar. Nothing hurts like rejection.

I guess that was the mother of OP herself to click YDI
isisorchid 16
Because the internet is dark and full of trolls.
Jaevwyn 17

You'd think she of all people would remember the day she painfully squeezed you out of her own body.
SpeedToast 16
Exactly, I bet she has something planned behind OP's back...

Hopefully she actually forgot and isn't saying that just to avoid doing anything special for you.

My mom of course ?
JBChristian 47
Oh you know why you put a question mark there ;) Because we all know that award goes to my mom!

See, if that were me, I'd think I was finally getting that surprise birthday party I've always wanted. The day's not over yet, OP! ...Or is it? When did you submit this?

Unfortunately it doesn't take a certain IQ level to procreate :/

Now there's an idea. Rip out the reproductive organs of those who don't meet the IQ criteria.

Just go out till you feel like coming home. When your mom tries to tell at you for coming in past curfew say, "Don't lie to me that's not my curfew."
