Today, I looked over my next homework assignment for art class. It was to draw a portrait of my best friend. I can't think of anyone besides my mother. FML

Today, I opened my lunch in front of my friends at university. I had a note in my lunch from my mother that said "Have a good day sweetie! - Love mom". I wrote that note, and put it in my lunch to impress my friends. FML

Today, I went to a surprise birthday party for a friend. Everyone was hiding and waiting to yell "Surprise!" when I got a call from my mom. I was loudly discussing family gossip and trying to get my mom to hang up when the door opened. Everyone yelled "Surprise!" and then turned to stare at me. FML

Today, I'd planned a surprise party for my best friend's birthday. However, she apparently found out about it and told me at the last minute she couldn't make it, probably to avoid being the center of attention. I'd already invited all of our mutual friends, so I had to awkwardly cancel the party. FML

english is a second language, sorry - ndati,ngatange aitashamwari azozvizivira kuti shamwari hadzinabasa - translation - op should make friends so that op can say by him/herself that friends are over rated, dont encourage op saying friends are overated whilst in other situations they help beyond what you could expect from family. OP, try make friends. (there is no fmylife in my native language - so suck up my incorect gramma and mispeld words till they make one)

The FML didn't state that the OP wants more friends, just that the assignment assumed the existence of multiple friends. OP could be fine having just mom for a friend, and annoyed at being required to make up someone for the assignment. Just playing devil's advocate.
