Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, my biology teacher assigned us partners for a project. I got paired up with one of the smartest kids in the class. When he found out I was his partner, he cried. FML

Today, I was paired up with my long-term crush for a project. She introduced herself to me and asked if I was new this year. We've gone to the same school since kindergarten. FML

Today, I started crying in class because of a sad part in the book I was reading. I got pulled out into the hallway and my male teacher asked, "Is it your special time?" FML

Today, at school, everybody wanted to be my partner for a project. This surprised me because nobody ever wants to be with me. Turns out when I was absent, my teacher promised that whoever was my partner would get extra points on the project. FML

Sorry…
Today, my English teacher asked me why I didn't have my project completed. Thinking quick on my feet, I told her it was because my grandmother had just passed away. Apparently they go to the same country club and have known each other for years. My teacher started crying and ran out of the room. FML

Today, I caught two kids passing notes to each other in my class, so I told them to see me afterwards. When one of the kids eventually came up, I noticed he was crying. He looked up at me and sobbed out, "I was trying to make my first friend!" FML

Today, I was talking to the girl I've liked for 2 years. We were assigned partners for a History project so we were going to work on it at my house. When she asked me for directions, I told her I lived on Woodcock Road. She yelled slapped me and stormed off. I was serious. FML

Today, I was partnered up with a girl in my art class, since the teacher had asked us to take turns drawing portraits of each other. I went first and felt pretty proud of how the drawing turned out. I showed it to her and she said "That's OK. I'm not good at drawing either." FML

Slacking
Today, I spent most of the day doing a project for school. When I finished, I got a call from my project partner. She couldn't finish her part because her internet didn't work. When I finally finished everything, I went on Facebook. She was on Facebook too. FML

Let's just say she was intimidated by you because you're so brilliant. That's better than guessing she burst into tears because you're stupid, ugly and/or smelly.

anxiety about working with someone new maybe? thats all I can think of, maybe she's used to working with someone else that she's comfortable with because she knows them.

Any way you look at it, it has to be painful when your assigned project parter cries because they were assigned to work with you. The unspoken question is, of course why? If the poster had intentionally put out an unfriendly “vibe” or even a predatory vibe then it’s really FML for the girl who cried. If the girl who cried was just disappointed because she specifically wanted to be partners with her friend or “crush” then it’s tough, but people get over that. Hopefully either crybaby got the teacher to change assigned partners or OP was able to reassure crybaby that she was going to be able to work with her without a problem. At some point many of us get that kind of rejection and we have to learn to deal with it. I was much more of a nerd than a jock in school and was inevitable among the last few chosen for sports teams in physical education. Frankly the feeling was mutual, I had no interest in sports and just wanted to stay out of the way. The good thing that came from those experiences was knowing that there are things I am good at and things that I am not, and learning to concentrate on things I am good at.
