Prom

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>I've got a problem...
My date for prom goes to another school, and she and I are/were planning to go to mine, and both of us wanted to go in a group and in a limo, but all of my friends cancelled or their groups were full for prom, so now I have no group and no limo, and the prom is in the city, which can be rather unsafe at night. I've already reserved my tux and she has a dress (she wore it to her prom that she went to with just her girl friends), and I have to get tickets by next week and give to her some form to have signed by teachers at her school all due May 19th. In reality, I really don't/didn't want to go to prom at all , but since this girl is my friend, I said yes so I figured I should go, but I don't know what to do now. I don't want to lie to her, but I don't really want to go to prom. She is my friend, however, so I don't want to ruin that.</p>

<p>HELP!</p>

<p>Just tell her you don't want to go...</p>

<p>I mean, it is YOUR prom at YOUR school, so she shouldn't be too invested in it. And it's not like she really spent any money on it (considering that her dress was already used).m</p>

<p>This happened to a girl at my school, only the guy didnt go to his prom, and she didnt want to go with him at the last minute (she wanted to go with her best guy friend instead)....so she called him the day before and canceled.</p>

<p>at least she refunded his tux price..</p>

<p>i don't want to come across as a total jerk though, and it's not that i dislike her or anything. I hope that she would understand.</p>

<p>ofcourse she would unless she likes you or something.</p>

<p>Anyone notice this is like the 5th or something prom thread in a short time span.</p>

<p>I know. Its nice to see posts like these on CC, the whole AP or SAT stuff were getting old.</p>

<p>wow, we posted the same thing at the same time...</p>

<p>Mental note to self: hotpiece101 and FordGT at 2231 EDT 12 May 2006 posted the same thing, showing that thought patterns connected across 500 miles for one brief moment. Message is being archived because of future marital implications.</p>

<p>wow haha that's simply amazing</p>

13

<p>hmm, i guess great minds do think alike.</p>

<p>and i like how we both emphasized "is"</p>

14

<p>yeah that's pretty funny/cool</p>

<p>hey get this: my friend has physics last hour when i have chem. the entire physics class walked in to chem and they got in a big line.
then one by one they each held up a little sign and it all spelled out "_____ prom"
At the very end my friend held the question mark and goes "_____ will you go to prom with me???" and she goes "i would love to!!" and then everyone clapped hahahaha
It was damn cute</p>

<p>Tell her you don't really want to go, but don't do it in a rude way that implies that she is the problem...you could explain the whole thing to her...maybe ask her to do something else with you that same day so it's not as if you're just blowing her off?</p>

<p>that's a good idea</p>
