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.

i can definitely see how easy it is to make that mistake, especially since you were 12 during the party planning. the thought is what's important. i'm sure if you pointed it out she would have ran to the dollar store and quickly gotten you a new candle and the party would still be the same.

You're right! How could that stupid woman not pay attention to your needs as a poor helpless ungrateful bitch! The nerve! I say you cry and complain until she throws you another party.

Good you got presents 'n stuffs, but it really is terrible they did something like that. But people think "twelve-year-old presents" are ponies and stuffed animals. Most twelve-year-old girls would want clothes and stuff like that. Weird they didn't figure out you were thirteen. Even the girlfriend shouldn't be THAT stupid. One time, on my 11th birthday, I went to a restaurant and the waitress asked if I was turning eight.

Holy shit, reading these comments makes me scared. How many prepubescent kids are there here? And that's not an fml. Don't be such a brat and appreciate that she made such an effort to make your day special.

How the hell did this even make it on here? You're 13, there is nothing in your life right now that could warrant an FML.

Ok im 13. so that means I'm automactilly stupid, a brat, and annoyin?. You can't just say that just because of someone's age. People think I'm mature for my age and they feel sorry for me because lots of other people are immature. I really hate it when people judge every kid just because of a few bad apples. And you can't tell people to get off a website. Do you own it? Uhh no. and look i made a point without cussing. Unlike some people on this website to claim to be more mature cuss in like almost every sentence.

How the hell is this an FML!? You should feel grateful that she tried to do something nice for you.
