Dateless =(

Posted 04-16-2011 at 09:20 AM by STM
Oh boy,
Well it seems I'm dateless to the prom, I sort of knew this would happen since I heard about the prom last year. I know that people are going to say, 'go ask someone you dumb fuck' but I'm so shy it's unreal. Ah well, it would be worse if my friends had dates but they don't either, apart from one. Which brings up the question, have I surrounded myself with rejects for five years? Gah fuck it who cares, always next year...and then university. Bleh, I dunno why I'm even posting this.

Anyone dateless to the prom/was dateless to the prom?

I didnt have a date to the prom but I didn't give a shite. I s'pose its different because i'm a bender but ah well. I wouldnt be too bothered about it. You have to remember, proms and dates are nowhere near as socially "needed" as they are in the US. And you shouldnt call your friends rejects, you also have to remember that theyve stood by you over the years, despite how socially important they are.

Yeh I know, and tbf I don't give that much of a fuck either, I thought about asking a girl but reckoned we'd have nothing to say to each other which would be worse.

And I know I shouldn't talk about my friends like that, they are great guys, most of them, I wouldn't ditch them for 'popularity' either.

At least I'll get into the after party, apparently that's better then the prom.

I didn't have a prom, I had a ball. Because, you know, I don't live in America. Although I don't think there's really much of a difference except in my case at least no one gave a shit about having a date. It was the very last time we would all be together as a year group, and it was a celebration of our past years together.

I fucking hated it.

My advice is to hire and bring along a hooker.

My school (even though I've lived in Wales all my life) called it a prom. I had no interest in going at all. Do I really want to waste an evening of my life with people who I thought were mostly dickheads? NO! So me and some friends gathered at my house to play Guitar Hero World Tour and drink cider instead. AWESOME!

Plus a date? hell no. I didn't get on with any of the girls

I live in England as well Max but every girl is obsessed with American fanaticism at the mo and part of that is the Prom.

@Dax - but won't you feel a bit weird being one of the few people not going?

A good amount of my friends are not going, and those that are sure do like to complain about going. I will probably do something fun that night with a group. Once again, I rather not spend a couple hundred dollars on one night when money is so tight.

I was going, but then didn't.

As alcohol was not allowed and if I went, I'd be cranky.

My date was quick to find someone else, though.

This blog is sad.

I can never understand shyness, so I can't understand why you couldn't have just asked someone.

I was shy until I realised that I could just do things that non-shy people do.

That could mean that I was never shy and just had confidence issues.

Because shyness has nothing to do with confidence issues.

You can have confidence issues without being shy.

I always think of shyness as being timid when interacting with people. Confidence issues are broader.

Well then I have both...I'm not shy around friends, fuck it I played football with some blokes I didn't know last week, and rugby, but I dunno. Ugh.

Weird thing is some people are really worried about not going to the prom with anyone, it's not that massive a deal though. Surely?

£400? Why is your prom so goddamn expensive?

Suit, prom ticket, limo, end of year hoody and year book all sort of come in a combo. Some dick head tried to promote so company he's working at by selling his own t-shirts that say SCD on them for like £24. No one bought them.

Try second hand shops to see if you can find a suit that suits you. You stand to save fucking heaps.
