i'm a little unsure about the category but i guess it doesn't matter

i have a school dance coming up in a few days and i am supposed to go with this girl. i didnt really ask her but we kind of agreed to go together about three weeks ago. i dont really like her as more than a friend but i know that she likes me. i really wanted a date to the dance even if it was just as friends and i knew that she liked me so i figured she would say yes. now theres about 3 days left until the dance and i decided that i dont want to have a date anymore. i want to go alone so that there is no pressure to hang out with this girl but its too late to say i dont wanna go with her anymore. she offered to not go together but i couldnt do that because i thought that would be pretty mean. well i told one of her friends about how i didnt want a date and more and she promised not to tell anyone about it. but her friend broke the promise and told her. now things are awkward between us. i dont know what to do. i feel so stressed out about this. please help.

I understand how your feeling-I have been in a similar situation. I went with one of my good friends to a semi formal dance last winter. However one of the big problems for us was that we hung out with different groups of friends. I didn't want to leave my group of friends that night, and niether did my date. So-we sat down before hand and talked abit about how things would happen. We still went to the dance however, but when we got there, we both just kinda, did our own thing. Occasionally we would dance, talk, etc. however-we both just made sure that we had a good time. I also told my date that I was cool if he wanted to have a few slow dances with some of our other friends.

So-If I were you, I would just talk to this girl, and explain that if she still would like to go together, thats ok--but that you really want to see all your friends, and make sure thats she is ok with that. Hopefully she will be understanding, and in a similar situation! Every girl loves to have a date, but they also like to have their friends with them too!

Dont stress about it, everything will work out to be ok--if your date wont comprimise, well then she is missing out, don't let her get you down, and just enjoy your dance! You only get so many before you graduate--trust me, i know! Have fun and Goodluck!
