Today, it's my 25th birthday and all of the friends who promised they could come had excuses why they couldn't make it. Now I'm at the bar, alone. FML

The only way to save this is if your friends are at your place fixing a surprise party. I'll keep my fingers crossed!

Time to look into making better friends. Happy birthday OP!

I know that feel. Same thing happened to me last year, minus the bar visit. Hope it got better, OP. And happy birthday.

find someone to share that drink called loneliness with, because it's better than drinking alone.

Maybe Billy Joel will come to the party. :)

Well, at least your friends Jack Daniels, Johnny Walker, and Jose Cuervo, were already at the bar waiting for you.

You're missing the fourth horseman, Jim Beam. Although I prefer the 3 wise men which excludes Jose. Anyway, I like where your head is at.

well, I mean... shit happens. You can't honestly expect that you're the priority if something else came up unexpectedly. That said, if they blew you off to play video games or hang out with other friends, then **** them.

Somebody's a little bit bitter...Take the negativity somewhere else, kiddo.

how is it bitter to point out that life happens and shit comes up? I'm sorry OP's friends bailed on them, but things happen. It's kind of stupid that everyone is just assuming that every single one of the friends just chose to blow OP off instead of remembering that life is unpredictable.

Nobody's assuming that. But coming here and being negative about it and essentially telling OP to get over it is not okay. Makes you sound a little insensitive.

Happy Birthday, OP. I'd drink one with ya if I could.

Your friends suck OP but you should've just started drinking and mingling with the ladies there

Op, think positive! Without them you can drink more.

Happy birthday OP. It's natural for people to move on with their lives but if they said they'd be there they should have shown up.

Sorry to hear that OP. Order a stiff one and enjoy being a quarter of a century.
