Today, one of my teachers asked me to babysit their kids saturday night. She didn't forget that it was Prom night, she was going to chaperone it. My teacher assumed I wasn't invited to Prom... I wasn't. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got a call from a girl I know, asking if I could babysit her little brother at my house tonight. I said yes. When the boy came over, he mentioned that his sister was having a party and didn't want him there. Turns out all my friends were invited except me. FML
Today, I had to work at the restaurant instead of going to the prom, which nobody asked me out to. For five hours, I got to shamefully greet and seat people on their way home from the prom, all of whom knew I was too lame to get asked out. FML
Today, a woman got out of a car to scream at me as I was walking with the kids I babysit, demanding to know where I was taking her children. Apparently the woman who pays me is also a babysitter, who I have been "covering" for on her party nights. The mother doesn't believe I didn't know this. FML
Today, I had numerous calls from people saying they need a baby sitter, because "they know I wasn't invited anywhere". FML
Today, I was invited to a party. Since I rarely get invited to any, I was super pumped. Both my parents work late, so I texted a couple of people to see if I could catch a ride. It turned out everyone's cars were full. I ended up missing one of the only parties I've ever been invited to. FML
Today, I found out I wasn't cool enough to be invited to a college party that happened last night. The one in charge of inviting people was my girlfriend of two years. FML
Today, my piano teacher told me that she "forgot" to inform me that she volunteered me to play a 5-page song in a recital in front of 300 people that's happening next week. FML
Today, I realized the reason I was asked to babysit 3 weeks ago for Feb 14 was because the old married couple with kids safely assumed that I wouldn't have a Valentine. FML
Today, I was looking through my high school yearbook. I found a picture of myself and a couple of my friends at our senior prom. The caption gave the names of all my friends, their dates who didn't attend our school, and listed me only as "Guest." FML
Today, I found out that my parents forgot to invite me out to eat with them. I found this out when my mom invited my sister right in front of me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm confused. Unless you're not a senior (well even that depends on where you live), why would you need to be invited?

Aww, everyone who is saying "You don't need a date" would you REALLY want to go to prom alone? At my highschool as you walked in the dance an announcer called your name and your date's name as you stood up on this podium thing and everyone took pictures. I saw some fat ugly chicks up there alone. I would rather die.

You know, you don't HAVE to have a date to go to Prom. You could go with a few friends. It's not the end of the world. You shouldn't have to miss your Prom just because no one asked you.

@43: They didn't call out your name as you entered the Prom at my school. Going alone wasn't a big deal. And there's always the option of bringing a guy who doesn't go to your school.

i don't know where you live, but in Toronto (Canada), we don't have to be asked to prom in order to go. and even if we do get asked, it's mostly by friends of the opposite sex, not like 'crushes'. that's a little mean and just fits in perfectly with those stereotypical movies with the cheerleaders and jocks and nerds.. **** stereotypes!

Hey I'm a girl and I didn't go to any of my proms. Like someone said, why waste the money? Don't feel bad OP, it's no big thing if you didn't go.

I went to prom a couple of times and the dances were fun, but the best part was the beach houses afterward. Oh yes...good times.

your teacher asked you to babysit... is that allowed? And going to prom alone is fine. My friends did it. Personally, i like going with dates better but they still had fun = )
