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.
Today, I called my dad asking him to wish me a happy birthday. Yay. FML
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
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
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
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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

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 think it's sweet your dad's girlfriend did all that for you. At my age right now I don't really see the fml-ness about accidentally thinking you're 12 instead of 13, but I suppose that when you're younger it seems like much bigger of a deal. Either way, happy birthday! By the way, what do you mean by "all the gifts" being according to the age 12 instead of 13? Did she get you something you would've loved to get one year ago but now hate?

This is a fake FML. The cake is a lie... The cake is a lie... The cake is a lie... The cake is a lie...

Are the type of presents really going to change that much between 12 and 13?

my olds allways ask what year im in or how old i am it's not a big deal if it upset u just go whisper " im thirteen" and theyll say sorry and maybe do their best to rectify the situation but coming onto fml and complaining to people who dont give two ***** about u and think that u are too young for this website isn't the way too go p.s sorry grammer nazis im on my phone and persanolly cant be arsed to check. my spelling or grammer for people on the internetz

What is wrong with all of you? At 13 it IS a big deal. And while I'm not sure a 13 year old should be on this website, if her own father is unaware of her age there is something wrong. Sorry girl, that stinks!!!!!!!!!!!

How about assuming the woman that was trying to be really nice to you mixed up your age because you don't ACT LIKE IT. Honestly, a 13 year old whining after her father's girlfriend took the time to make her a nice Birthday party? You sound like an immature little snot nosed brat in my eyes, OP. Congratulations, you're 13 now, a teenager. So why didn't you go to a club or cafe or restaurant even with your friends to celebrate like one instead of whining like an ungrateful little kid because the adults did a minor mistake? In my opinion YDI for not acting like you're 13.

i wish everyone would shut the **** up. it's not unreasonable for her to expect her own father to know her age. and to the asshole that told her to go to a "club" on her birthday, are you joking? next time you go to a club let me know how many 13 year olds you see.
