So all of my friends already have a date to prom. I don't even have a guy friend, so actually having a date to prom probably wouldn't happen. Which just makes me depressed.*Forever alone*
I know it sucks. I was in the same boat four years ago - and my school was hardcore about "prom asking." It was a bit of a pride/ego thing for the guys to have the biggest "asking" of sorts...
I vividly remember sitting there, having to smile and laugh and act excited as many of my friends got asked to prom via showy displays of flowers or banners or serenades (yes, it was a weird, quite nerdy school). I didn't end up getting asked to prom. I had a severely limited number of male friends at the time and no boyfriend. At the time it was upsetting and frustrating. What made it even more upsetting and frustrating was having to put on a happy face for my friends. I can totally relate.
But you know what? I went to prom anyway. I found a handful of friends - some of whom had dates, some of whom didn't - and we went out to dinner and attended the dance. I had a great time - honestly, I probably had a better time dancing with my friends than those girls who went with guys that they didn't know too well.
And four years later - having never dated at all in high school - I have a fantastic boyfriend who I wouldn't trade for the world.
Things have a way of working out. I know it sucks now, but if you grin and bear it, you'll get through. And you never know what the next few years will bring
