Today, my dad's girlfriend threw me a birthday party and all the gifts, decorations, and the cake were according to my age, which they thought was 12. I turned 13 today. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Close to me
Today, I called my dad asking him to wish me a happy birthday. Yay. FML
Life is a roller coaster
Today, it's my birthday and my mom took me and some friends to an amusement park. Looking for a tampon, I found a phone in my mom's purse that I didn't recognize. Turns out my mom is cheating on my dad. Happy birthday to me, I guess. FML
Today, it was both my and my stepmother's birthday. In preparation, my dad bought a huge banner with my stepmother's name on it, and a lovely birthday cake. When I told him it was also my birthday, he just grunted and taped a post-it note to the banner with my name on it. Same with the cake. FML
Sweet Sixteen
Today, it's my 16th birthday. My parents forgot about it, and planned a weekend out of town. I was alone on my birthday. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My mom got me a gym membership and a bunch of clothes that are a few sizes too small. FML
Today, my family threw me a surprise party for my 29th Birthday. My brother-in-law sent me a text telling me they were all waiting for me to arrive. Thinking it was at my sister's home, I drove two hours there. It was actually at my parents' house. I missed my party and they ate my cake. FML
The truth
Today, I finally told my dad that I hate his girlfriend. I said her daughter's a complete whore, and her son is annoying as fuck. Turns out they were in the house and within earshot, ready to throw me a birthday party. FML
Better luck next year
Today, it's my birthday. My dad showed up to my birthday dinner wasted, was loud and obnoxious the whole time, sexually harassed our waitress, then invited my annoying, bratty nephews to come home and spend the night with us. They're sleeping in my room. Happy birthday to me. FML
Today, I threw myself a surprise party. FML
Today, is my birthday. Everyone forgot except my stalker. He rang the door bell the second it turned 12:00. FML

If your dad's girlfriend is like 35 or whatever.. get her a 40 year old balloon on her next birthday :P She won't be happy either.

Aww, that sucks. Congrats and happy birthday! And congratulations on being 13 and typing more coherently than most of the older crowd.

How many kids at that age don't know how old their parents or grandparents are? Just saying... OP, your dad and his girlfriend might have made a mistake, but so what? It's not like they don't love you just because they think you're turning 12. lol And you didn't have to celebrate your 12th birthday either just 'cause the decoration said so. Tell them you're turning 13 and stop crying. -.-You got a party, for god's sake! And by the way...who says her father doesn't know how old she is anyway? I'd rather say it's his girlfriend who bought the decoration and stuff (I mean... he's a man, you know? XD) and who says she asked him how old his daughter was? She might have thought she knew how old her boyfriend's daughter was and bought the stuff. Well, she was wrong about it. No big deal.

Your stupidity amazes me. -.- Her own dad thought she was turning 12. That's pretty ****** up.

Oh yeah, sure. He can't love his daughter when she's 12 and not 13, it's impossible for people to mix things up and of course you never make mistakes! lol
