Lonely birthday

By anon - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - Israel

Today, it's my birthday. Out of loneliness, I went to order some flowers and a cake "for a friend". The guy who delivered it to my house was the same guy from the counter. FML

Time to pull out the good old imaginary friend story. I still have one. His name is Alejandro. Excuse me, I think he's calling.

That sucks. I'm sorry you were alone on your birthday. Perhaps he thought your friend was coming round later, or lived with you.

Happy birthday!! i dont think you're the only one in that situation ^^

You should've said "I'm throwing a surprise party for my friend so I have to set up before they come."

You could easily have been over at your friend's house when the cake arrived. No big deal.

and thats when you look at him and tell him happy birthday, then give him the flowers and cake

I really don't think anyone would notice unless you kept insisting that it's "for a friend." You know what people who are actually buying things for a friend say? Nothing, because they aren't trying to justify a perfectly normal purchase.

Ahh, he won't remember, so stress less! Enjoy the cake :) and try and enjoy your birthday too :) Happy Birthday@
