Today, my school is having their homecoming, and it seems everyone but me has someone to go with. My best friend has her boyfriend, my brother has a date, and I have my hamster. FML

Today, my crush finally asked me to homecoming. I told my best friend, thinking she would be happy for me. Now we are in a big argument and she won't talk to me because I have a date and she doesn't. FML

Today, I got asked to Homecoming by the person I really like. I said yes and I was really excited. But my best friend who has liked me since the 6th grade wasn't. He went and broke my date's jaw. FML

Today, my sister brought her class hamster home from school. Somehow it escaped from its cage, and ran into my room. My boyfriend, thinking it was a mouse, stomped on it. I'm stuck cleaning hamster guts from my carpet, and have to explain to a kindergarten class what happened to their pet. FML

Hammy

Today, we got my brother a pet hamster because he has trouble making friends. We thought a hamster would be a good way to teach him about caring for others. I walked into the room and the hamster was hanging from the ceiling. Turns out there's a reason my brother doesn't have friends. FML

Today, I showed up at my brother's house for a visit. Little did I know, there was a family gathering. My best friend was invited and I wasn't. She's "more fun and less awkward" than I am. FML

Today, my old high school mates organised a dinner hangout so that my recent ex, who is part of our group, could introducing her new boyfriend to us. I was late and the only remaining seat available was next to the new boyfriend. FML

No future

Today, I went to my best friend's wedding. All my friends and their boyfriends were seated at one table, while I, as the only single girl in the group, was put on a table with all the other single people. They were all over forty years older than me. I feel like I have seen my future. FML

Today, I went to my former high school's homecoming game. A classmate who I always had a crush on looks up and goes "Brian!", holding her arms out for a hug. I hug her and she seems a bit suprised but hugs back anyway. I get up and see another Brian from our class behind me. Shame. FML

Today, my roommate went away for the weekend so she could hook up with a guy from Tinder that she's never met. This wouldn't be a problem if we hadn't already made plans for my 18th birthday, which is also today. Here's to a night of Netflix with my dog. FML

Who the hell would dress up their hamster and take them to their homecoming? That's horrible advice. What OP needs to do is go to the dance by herself, party hardy and just not give a f*ck

I went to homecoming without a date both my junior & senior years. By far the BEST dances of the entire year- prom & winterfest sucked because I had to deal with my dates constantly complaining or wanting to compromise on this or that. Homecoming i could do whatever I want and no one was nagging me! It was wonderful! Who cares if you don't have a date? It's far more attractive to see someone showing confidence and being okay with being alone than someone who's insecure and needs to cling to their date all night.

Oh definitely. I had a friend who moped the entire time at prom even though she had a date, her dress was gorgeous, her hair was perfect, and all her friends were there. I wore the same goddam dress to my prom and my date's subsequent prom, didn't give a **** if people knew I reused it, and had a blast both times. Unnescessary moodkill just seems to be the reason a lot of people go to prom.

Absolutely! She should put on her best dress, square her shoulders and hold her head high, and go anyway! I might also suggest if she had a platonic male friend who's not going, maybe they could go together? When my senior prom came, I wasn't dating anyone, and finally asked a gal I had a platonic friendship with who also didn't have a date, and we went and had a great time hanging out and laughing. No pressure, no awkwardness, just two friends having a good time. Especially since three longtime couples broke up that night, and later a lot of people told us we had the right idea...just go with a friend, or go by yourself, and relax and enjoy.
