Today, we had to give a surprise speech in speech class on two of our best and closest friends. My first friend was my mom. I had to make up the other one. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to make up a story about my "friends" at school so my mom doesn't keep telling I'm a loser. FML

Today, I opened my lunch in front of my friends at university. I had a note in my lunch from my mother that said "Have a good day sweetie! - Love mom". I wrote that note, and put it in my lunch to impress my friends. FML
Today, I went to a surprise birthday party for a friend. Everyone was hiding and waiting to yell "Surprise!" when I got a call from my mom. I was loudly discussing family gossip and trying to get my mom to hang up when the door opened. Everyone yelled "Surprise!" and then turned to stare at me. FML
Today, my sister is working on her graduation speech. She gives her thanks to one friend for helping support her through school, like, "The sister I never had". FML
Today, I went to a wedding with my family. While the maid of honor was giving her non-heartfelt, three sentence speech, my mom and I started talking about how lame her speech was. When I turned around to look at my mom, I saw the camera recording the speech behind her. FML
Today, I'd planned a surprise party for my best friend's birthday. However, she apparently found out about it and told me at the last minute she couldn't make it, probably to avoid being the center of attention. I'd already invited all of our mutual friends, so I had to awkwardly cancel the party. FML
Today, I found out that my best friend was having a birthday party and I wasn't invited. I had just finished planning a surprise party for her. FML
Today, as a part of my autobiography project for school, I needed to have 2 friends and 2 family members each write me a letter. I ended up having to forge 3 letters. FML

I wouldn't have done the speech at all. I mean, assuming the very idea of a pop quiz speech didn't send me into a panic attack, I'd have requested a different topic, stating incompatibility with my mental and social development as my reason. And if they wouldn't give another topic, then you go off and make your speech about the fact you were denied a suitable topic and take the F and the disciplinary action because goddamn it is fine to be solitary.

Guess what lots of people say "I have so many friends" but guess what? They really mean they have no friends or just they Right hand and Left hand

That sounds like me. :( Or I try to talk up my friends. Whether that be for me, a grade, or to make my social life look better, I'm not sure.

Nothing wrong with having your mom as a good friend, and don't feel alone OP I don't have any close friends either. We just haven't met 'the' people yet no worries!
