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.

That sucks, last year when I was 13 my dad was asked my age and said nine, and it wasn't like there was a discount for chidren under ten or something, also the day before my fourteenth birthday he asked "your turning 10 right?". it sucks so much, but honestly I would try to refrain from posting things like this on here becuase of th annoying people on here.

Wow quit bitching. My birthday was just recently on the 18th of November. Yeah, I just turned 13 too. Also, I have never gotten thrown any party on any special occasion of mine, never gotten any presents, my mom lost her job about a year ago, and my dad is in very high debt (not his fault because he uses his credit card for important purposes ONLY, and lost his Full time job which makes it worse.) SO you think your life sucks, well screw you for being a spoiled bitch.

just because someone's problem may not be as bad as yours, doesn't mean that it isn't a big deal to them. do we have to bring this up on EVERY discussion? also, 13 year olds are WAY too young for FMyLife.com

I just have to comment on this. "I completely agree although I'm only 16, which by most is still seen as part of 'the baby teens'. 12-year-olds, please, gtfo." She said she is 13, and I find this comment funny. Your only 3 years older then her, and your telling her to "Gtfo." Its common for 16 year olds to try and act more grownup by putting younger kids down. I couldnt help but laugh at how typical that was. Also, I would have to disagree on the age argument with most people here. A lot of you are saying 13 year olds dont understand this stuff. Well that totally depends on who the kid is. Your probably going to assume they dont if your parents kept you a bit more sheltered, and didnt really teach you about anything when you were that age, to avoid "Award Moments." Ill also guess that if you came from that type of family, they just assumed the school would do it for them. If your parents were parents, then ill take a guess and say you would be more "OK" with 13 year olds using this site. I also just want to say that FMyLife is a PG-13 site. 13. Just saying. Also, she didnt post that as a big "I hate being me" thing. I would assume its mostly just a funny story to share, and it had to be worded in terms to fit the site. If she were not turning 13, and was going to be 24 or something, people would stfu and just laugh about it. But because she is so young, they can call her a bratty little kid. Thats my view. Thanks for the read. Now lets get back to enjoying some other peoples misery. ^^

Oh, not that I am telling people to let there kids watch whatever they want or something. But I also looked, and theres nothing really that bad about this site. I dont see how 13 is "WAY to young" to be on here. Really people, look at the post. Aside form language there is just an occasional PG-13 post. There isnt anything really bad on here.

You're lucky you even got a birthday party on your 13th...

Wow people on here aren't very mature.. Why would you say FML shouldn't allow anyone under fourteen? I'm sure there are twelve and thirteen year old out there more mature than you. I have two little sisters who are 13 and 14, they are definitely mature enough for this. Just because they "haven't experienced" what people talk about on here doesn't mean they don't know what it is, idiots. OP, your life does suck. 13 is an important birthday, I remember I was so excited for mine. Becoming a teenager is an exciting milestone :) To all rude, ignorant assholes who think they are better because they are older... Go do some "cool, grown up stuff." By the way, I'm twenty.
