Today, I spent over $160 and 2 hours preparing for a Halloween party I was throwing. The only person who showed up was my sister, who helped me decorate. FML

Today, I spent $70 on party supplies for my sister's bachelorette party, another hour decorating, three hours baking and designing a cake, before waiting five hours to hear that she and another bridesmaid had 'moved' the party elsewhere. Cake anyone? FML

Today, my company had a Halloween party. I was so excited seeing as our company never does anything, so I pulled out all the stops with my costume. I was the only one who got dressed up. FML

Today, I finished making an awesome costume for a Halloween party my crush was attending. I then checked the invite and found out the party was last night. FML

Today, I spent over an hour decorating my house for trick or treaters. I never got one person at my door because I forgot to unlock my gate. FML

Props to you, though

Today, at my school, we finally had the party we worked on for the past week. I was tasked to make decorations and props for a photo booth. I made sure everything was perfect, and I even stayed up until 1 am working on the props. Not a single person used it. FML

Halloween, the long wait

Today, I asked my girlfriend to get a bunch of candy for our first Halloween at our new house, so she got $60 worth. We got into an argument about who was going to give it out. It’s now 9 p.m. No one came to our door all night. FML

Celebrate!

Today, at work, I was supposed to have an easy two-hour shift, after which I was planning on attending a party that had been arranged to celebrate my graduation. Nearly six hours later, I am just getting home after being super busy and shorthanded at work for hours. I missed my own party. FML

Today, my sister asked me if she could go into my closet to borrow my favourite dress for a party she was going to tonight. When I asked her where she was going, she said to a Halloween costume party. My sister is going as a prostitute. FML

Today, I dressed up like a pirate, dressed my dog as a parrot and bought $30 worth of candy to pass out to trick-or-treaters. I waited by the door for 3 hours. Not one kid came. FML

That sucks OP. I remember my 18th bday. My parents spent nearly $1000 trying to pull off a big surprise party for me. They rented a building and paid a fortune for my cake (which tasted terrible and looked nothing like how they wanted it). My dad even went out and bought a new sound system and lights. We had a huge snowstorm and only 5 people showed up. It was still one of the best b-days ever cuz the ones that showed up were my very best friends.

Wow, that must have felt so good, knowing that your parents went through all that trouble! I would have felt so embarassed, $1000 is so much money! Somehow this sounds like I'm trolling, but I'm sincerely touched by your parents' love and that five friends' loyalty.

I'm sorry to hear that lovely. Obviously your friends aren't very loyal to you. At the same time, your sisters loyalty is wonderful. It's times like these where you need to focus on the pro instead of the con. You and your sister most likely still had fun setting up. These things happen and in time you'll look back and laugh about it no doubt.

sorry, but weed and alcohol make a party not streamers. But even if you dont have that stuff the way you invite people matters too. Hope new years will be a blast for you though just remember to get the word out =D
